The Justice Department official who oversees investigations of voter fraud has resigned after Attorney General William Barr authorized federal prosecutors across the U.S. to pursue 'substantial allegations' of voting irregularities before the 2020 presidential election is certified, despite little evidence of fraud. Richard Pilger will step down from the post within hours, according to an email he sent to colleagues that was obtained by The New York Times.(Snip) Pilger, whose 25-year career has been devoted to election crimes and public corruption, told his colleagues in the email on Monday evening that he was quitting, in a sign of how worried

Resigned because he is part of fraud scheme is my guess. He was the insider and fixer. He most likely was part of the effort to sue the states who tried to prevent this from happening.

This guy had quite the track record. Arrest him! "J. Christian Adams, a former DOJ attorney who now serves on the U.S. Civil Rights Commission, suggested that the DOJ will not investigate the criminal referral thoroughly. “The chances of Richard Pilger—head of the Election Crimes Branch of the DOJ–doing anything is next to zero,” Adams told PJ Media. “He authorized zero prosecutions during Obama era and allowed only three federal districts–[the Western District of Texas], [the Middle District of North Carolina] and [the Eastern District of Pennsylvania] to have any prosecutions.”
“FBI agents all over the USA are slow walking or killing voter fraud prosecutions,” Adams added. “It’s outrageous.”

Given that no one ever gets prosecuted for election crimes, this guy has basically had a no show job for the past 25 years. Now someone finally tells him to do his job, and he says, ‘’That’s it, I quit!’’. Only in government.

Let’s see. 25 years. Didn’t fix much, did he. What I call “creative turnover”. Others might just call it “self-housecleaning”.. Gone. Good.

Just read #8… no surprise there. Pilger may have been in on the current mess - or just kept his eyes averted.

So for the past 25 years of rampant Democrat voter fraud, what the hell has he been doing? Oh, right, he was actually preventing his Democrat friends from being exposed. Barr forced him to resign or he was going to indict him.

Pilger assets that issues of election irregularities should be dealt with by the states, not the federal government. Well, if the states won’t clean up their messes, especially when it’s the NATIONAL election, then the Feds have to step in and fix it!

"as AG tears up rule book"
You mean the rule book democrats ignore,
unless they can bludgeon you with it?
That rule book?
The team that follows the rule book
when the other team doesn't, is foolish.
The AG is tearing up rule book,
that let dem cheat?

If Pilger quit, then Barr obviously has the goods on the Democrats. This investigation is looking awfully interesting.

Methinks the AP doth protest too much. If there is widespread election fraud, it is likely there are people in the know. The people watching the precincts see it. The AP is trying to provide cover.

Thanks, #7, for the good laugh!
What we have been seeing for the past year (in particular) is the most amazing and calculated sleight-of-hand operation in history. Now here we are, Charlie McCarthy aka Biden, is claiming the Presidency. Dozens of Edgar Bergans have busily created the dummy who, masked and shuffling along, would convince millions of people to vote for him.
What can you do? The media practiced highly controlled dissemination of highly controlled information, some of it bold-faced lies, others recrafted in order to be irresistibly appealing. But 70+million voters?
They weren't deluded overnight. Dem/Leftists always have long game plans. We need to remember this. BO accelerated the "fundamental transformation" i think they see this crisis of covid pathogenesis which they are determined to exploit fully, and are doing so.
The public just swallowed it all, all of Edgar Bergan's dummy discourse.
How do you reason with people such as these who were apparently delighted by the Charlie McCarthy and Edgar Bergan show? They BOUGHT the muffled lies uttered between the clucking teeth? While they sat cloistered in the shadowy covid world?
But always, always, the Edgar Bergan of 2020 fed his dummy McCarthy and his huge audience of dummies who gobbled it all, sprinkled with spittle of hatred, bitterness, envy and greed?
Years ago, actually in '08, i posted many comments that we needed people to wake up because they're too passive and naïve, they suffer from ICHh ("ick"): It Can't Happen Here psychosis.
In a fair world, in a just world, Donald Trump would win easily. I pray that fraudulence will be discovered and rescinded. But the Edgar Bergans are everywhere. And they are sinister. Charley McCarthy is bad enough, but most of his spoliation comes from Edgar Bergan, and he is the elites in the Dem/Leftist Party + media + tech. They mean to rule the world. It has taken all of them to perhaps topple our broad-shouldered President.
\
keep praying for POTUS, investigators, all who are defending the Presidency, the Constitution, and us. Pray for ourselves that we stay alert in the night-watches.
May Edgar Bergan's hand slip and McCarthy sputter the truth.

The head of the DOJ crimes unit has never investigated any election fraud. You can take that to the bank. I got it that Barr has integrity, but I would really like someone that does the job at DOJ instead.

The DOJ can't look for evidence of fraud because they don't have evidence of fraud other than all of the evidence of fraud the Left says doesn't exist because the DOJ hasn't found any evidence of fraud, so they can't go looking for it...

How can the JD be counted on to pursue crime and justice when the criminals are running the show under the nose of the JD. Is this the czar type Rush was talking about?
Read this carefully and it describes who this Pilger person is:
"Pilger, whose 25-year career has been devoted to election crimes and public corruption"

Where there 's smoke, there's fire.
We have fifty states and all fifty of them have the smoke of Marxist Communist democrats, rino's liberals, etc., All who are working for the Globalist Marxist Communist One World Government. The one McShame called a New World Order that they have been working on for over fifty years. Never forget, there are six times more evil people serving Lucifer who will bring all people back into slavery of dictatorship government in this world than there are good people trying to be righteous and serving I AM THAT I AM God our creator Father.
His Holy Bible as warned us, but, the majority of people are not listening.
The imagination of Man's/woman's heart is evil from their youth. Genesis 8:21
The lust of the flesh, entertainment, and lust for mammon, rules over most of the people.

A 25-year career devoted to election crimes and public corruption? Election fraud is ignored because it's an issue committed in leftist states, and massive public corruption by the man posing as the president-elect and his son goes by with a wink and a smile. Resign? Sounds like he should be arrested instead, but that's how the swamp rolls.
