Yes, Pence CAN act. If he does not, he is abandoning his oath, period.

“Journalists” in political mainstream media spend most of their professional time as mouthpieces for Democrats. But occasionally they put time in on behalf of Republicans who are in-line with the progressive cause. This is why people like Senator Mitt Romney are darlings to the press on a full-time basis while people like John Bolton bounce back and forth between being praised and pounced upon. It all depends on the narrative of the moment and stance of the target.

Vice President Mike Pence spends the vast majority of his time being a target for mainstream media. But we’ve seen over the last week a “softening” by the press over his “dilemma” of being the man who can put the final (though technically it won’t really be final) nail in President Trump’s political coffin when he presides over the joint session of Congress to count the electoral votes tomorrow. This softening bodes ill for the President, as Newsmax White House Correspondent Emerald Robinson noted earlier today:

VP Mike Pence has no intention of playing the #Pencecard tomorrow.

How do I know, you ask?

Because the AP is already doing puff pieces about how hard this ordeal has been on Mike Pence -the day before anything happens.

Classic PR: his staff is leaking Pence's apology.

It looks like Pence is going to drop the ball. Pence has surrounded himself with people like David McIntosh, president of Club for Growth, who "expects Pence to emerge from this week’s drama with his reputation intact" after he certifies for Biden.

Fat chance.

If she is correct, then the Vice President, acting as President of the Senate during tomorrow’s joint session, will not take action against the six or more fraudulently selected and highly contested slate of electors. We’ve seen a swarm of articles supporting this contention; when mainstream media is in fluff-mode instead of attack-mode against a powerful Republican, they know something we don’t.

Articles range in topics from weeping over Pence’s predicament to declaring through all-mighty “fact checkers” that he wouldn’t have the power to reject electors even if he wanted to. And through it all, none of the major outlets are preparing at all for action because they believe, almost certainly based on sources within the Vice President’s own camp, that he will not take action.

Let’s break this down. First and foremost, and this cannot be said loudly enough, Pence DOES have the power to reject fraudulent electors. The muddiness of the Electoral Count Act of 1887 is open for interpretation, as is the limited information provided by the Constitution. On the other hand, precedent seems squarely on the side of the President of the Senate’s plenary power over the counting process. Any action he takes will be challenged in court, but that’s just another part of the process if he does choose to act on behalf of America.

The key to all of this is that these electors were fraudulently selected, and that fraud manifested in every manner possible. The states themselves acted unconstitutionally with their unprecedented changes to the balloting system. Evidence of physical fraud is tremendous and continues to mount. Data analysis demonstrates beyond any doubt whatsoever that voter fraud was massive and exponentially favored former Vice President Joe Biden. In short, there is no universe in which these election results should be accepted in the United States of America.

Now, let’s look at the bright side. We could be wrong about Pence. Until it happens, it’s still in his court. Generally speaking, he seems like an honorable, patriotic, God-fearing man. For him to abandon his nation at its time of greatest need when he has the power to protect it would mean that he possesses none of these three traits. Based on what we’ve seen so far, particularly the propaganda coming from mainstream media the last few days, I would normally assume the worst. With Mike Pence, I’m willing to give him the benefit of the doubt until he acts or fails to act.

The most important factor in all of this is the Constitution itself. Attorneys can debate the ECA and constitutional ambiguities all they want. His PR team can swear to him that the optics of him making any move on January 6th would be career-killing. His mild-mannered nature may make him want to go along to get along. But at the end of the day, the Constitution of the United States and the nation itself are under attack from enemies both domestic and foreign. Any other conclusion requires ignorance or complicity.

His oath to defend and support the Constitution is only superseded by his beliefs as a Christian. In this situation, as with nearly all that pertain to the Constitution and the Bible, there is no conflict between the two. Both should guide the Vice President to take action on January 6th.

Voter fraud changed the results of the election. This is unambiguous prima facie and only gets more compelling the deeper we dive into it. The election was stolen in defiance of the Constitution. Vice President Mike Pence must fulfill his oath.

COVID-19 lockdowns are taking down an independent news outlet

Nobody said running a media site would be easy. We could use some help keeping this site afloat.

Colleagues have called me the worst fundraiser ever. My skills are squarely rooted on the journalistic side of running a news outlet. Paying the bills has never been my forte, but we’ve survived. We have ads on the site that help, but since the site’s inception this has been a labor of love that otherwise doesn’t bring in the level of revenue necessary to justify it.

When I left a nice, corporate career in 2017, I did so knowing I wouldn’t make nearly as much money. But what we do at NOQ Report to deliver the truth and fight the progressive mainstream media narrative that has plagued this nation is too important for me to sacrifice it for the sake of wealth. We know we’ll never make a ton of money this way, and we’re okay with that.

Things have become harder with the coronavirus lockdowns. Both ad money and donations that have kept us afloat for a while have dropped dramatically. We thought we could weather the storm, but the resurgence of lockdowns that mainstream media and Democrats are pushing has put our prospects in jeopardy. In short, we are now in desperate need of financial assistance.

The best way NOQ Report readers can help is to donate. Our Giving Fuel page makes it easy to donate one-time or monthly. Alternatively, you can donate through PayPal as well. We need approximately $17,300 to stay afloat through March when we hope the economy will be more open, but more would be wonderful and any amount that brings us closer to our goal is greatly appreciated.

The second way to help is to become a partner. We’ve strongly considered seeking angel investors in the past but because we were paying the bills, it didn’t seem necessary. Now, we’re struggling to pay the bills. This shouldn’t be the case as our traffic the last year has been going up dramatically. June, 2018, we had 11,678 visitors. A year later in June, 2019, we were up to 116,194. In June, 2020, we had 614,192. In November, 2020, we hit 1.2 million visitors.

We’re heading in the right direction and we believe we’re ready talk to patriotic investors who want to not only “get in on the action” but more importantly who want to help America hear the truth. Interested investors should contact me directly with the contact button above.

As the world spirals towards radical progressivism, the need for truthful journalism has never been greater. But in these times, we need as many conservative media voices as possible. Please help keep NOQ Report going.
