Republican Staffers Fired For Allegedly Doing Crime GOP Accuses Democrats Of Doing

One of the main claims of the Republicans who insist the 2020 election was stolen (which it wasn't), is that Democrats engaged in "ballot harvesting." But, as is usually the case, this is all projection. It turns out that a pair of Republicans in Pennsylvania have been fired after engaging in what appears to be a "ballot harvesting" scheme that could also implicate them in massive voter fraud, according to reports. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains what's happening.

Over the last year, we've heard a lot about so-called ballot harvesting. It is one of the things that Republicans have accused Democrats of doing up and down left. And right since before the 2020 election saying, Democrats are illegally out there harvesting these ballots for people, submitting them sometimes maybe even filling them out for these individuals and that's illegal. And if it's not, we're gonna pass laws to make it illegal, to stop those darn Democrats from doing it. But like so many other things with Republicans, especially voter fraud, it's all projection because this week two Republican operatives in the state of Pennsylvania have been fired for allegedly being involved in a massive ballot. Harvesting scheme. The two individuals are Shamus O'Donnell and CJ Parker. Both of whom have been affiliated with the Republican registration coalition, the political action committee behind the south Philadelphia mail ballot operation.

According to four party sources familiar with the matter this is from Penn live. Um, this is how the scheme worked dozens of Republican mail ballots for the May 17th primary were being diverted to a PO box, registered to the Republican registration coalition. The committee's chairman Billy lands a Lotti a one-time Republican ward leader in Philadelphia said he'd helped voters fill out their ballot applications inserting his PO box on the form where voters would typically write their home addresses. Many of the affected voters said they did not remember applying to vote by mail and had no idea why their ballots were going to Lande lot. Instead of directly to them, one said, Landal, Lotti had delivered his ballot back to the city. Once it had been filled out, which violated state law and Lande Lotti by the way, was actually voted out as a Republican leader this past weekend. Then those other two men I mentioned who were also allegedly a part of this scheme were fired this week.

It's always projection, right? This is literally the same kind of scheme that Republicans have been whining for a year and a half. That Democrats are allegedly doing only for them to turn around and realize, oops, it was our own party doing it the whole time. Danes de Soza still has a new film out 2000 mules that alleges Democrats engaging at all of this ballot. Harvesting. I'm having to start a wonder. Now, if he's gonna add a special incr scene where it turns out the big twist was that it was the Republicans doing it the whole time. And here's the kicker folks. Even after this scheme in Pennsylvania was revealed. Do you know what the Republicans in Pennsylvania did? They came out and said, well, this is just proof that we need to, we need to crack down on the Democrats on their ballot harvesting. Let me read this, that didn't stop Republicans from seeking to weaponize the situation Tuesday in their

Ongoing efforts to cast doubt on the security of voting by mail. So Republicans in Pennsylvania, knowing what their own party is doing are now looking at that and holding it up as the shining example and saying, see, this is why you can't trust, vote by mail. No, that's why we can't. Trust Republicans vote by mail is secure. It's your party.
