Wisconsin Republicans Choose Convicted Felon To Audit 2020 Election

Republicans in Wisconsin are so desperate to overturn their state's 2020 election results that they will listen to anyone willing to say there was fraud - including former felons who were convicted of fraud. Republicans recently heard testimony from a convicted felon about the alleged fraud that took place in 2020 as they continue to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to prove something that doesn't exist. Farron Cousins explains what's happening.

Republicans of the state of Wisconsin are so desperate to overturn their state's 20, 20 election results. Even more than 15 months after the election took place. But they're so desperate that they're willing to listen to anybody who comes forward with allegations of fraud. Even if that individual is a convicted felon who actually went to jail for fraud, that convicted felon happens to be a man by the name of Peter Begar, who happens to be one of the heirs to the Hillshire farms fortune, but he went to jail in 2009 for bank fraud, mail fraud, you know, the, the here, right? And, uh, here's the thing, Mr. Begar recently testified in front of the Wisconsin state house with all kinds of allegations of fraud in the 2020 election, because he says, he's been looking into this himself and Hey, if there's anybody that knows fraud, when they see it, it's a guy that spent time in jail for fraud, right?

Of course not voter fraud, but far more serious forms of fraud. This is how ridiculous they have gotten folks. I mean, forget for a fact that, again, we're talking about 15 months later, they're still working on this. They're also spending hundreds of thousands of dollars. Uh, it's unclear whether or not they've paid, uh, Mr. Bene for his services. Uh, maybe he was doing it outta the goodness of his heart, but either way they support what he's doing so effectively, he is working for them, whether or not he's getting paid, I don't know yet, but they'll listen to anybody. And I understand everybody gets a second chance. Everybody gets a shot at redemption. He paid his debt to society. Sure. But is this really the face you want to go with? Is this really the guy you wanna put front and center as, as you're smoking gun evidence of voter fraud in the 22, 1 election? Probably not. Again, they are spending hundreds of thousands of dollars in the state of Wisconsin to audit their election results. And of course, Joe Biden did when the state of Wisconsin, they believe that Nope, he totally did not. Donald Trump won it. And so far they have been and unable to produce any evidence whatsoever to suggest that Donald Trump had the election stolen from him, just like we've seen in Texas,

Georgia, Arizona, Michigan,

All the other states where they've been pushing these idiotic audits and it's going to yield the same results. We know these elections were secure. There have been cases of voter fraud that have popped up here and there hell. We've had a lot of 'em down here in Florida and the villages and by a lot, I mean, fewer than 10, but still a lot for one community. Uh, almost all of them, as far as I know of in the villages, actually, all of them that I know of in the villages were in fact Republicans. So are you really, really sure you wanna keep digging this hole because more we find out, uh, the more we find out that Joe Biden actually had votes taken away from him. Oh, in Idaho too, by the way, was a state that decided to do an audit and found the same thing. Oops, we over counted Donald Trump's votes. But if you must insist, if you wanna waste taxpayer dollars, chasing rabbits down holes that aren't even real, I guess, continue to do it, right. Not really hurting anything, except of course the public's faith in our entire electoral process. And that's the problem. But as studies have shown, it's a problem that could ultimately end up biting these Republicans in the behind more so than it does the Democrats.
