On Thursday, President Trump's legal team presented many pieces of information about the election that deserve to be investigated.
But the media have no interest in that.
Instead, they essentially black out the news and ask Trump to concede so they can crown their chosen king. Worst of all, they continue to falsely claim there is no evidence of fraud.
The New York Times and others have written about the potential fraud on universal mail-in ballots in the past, as have other outlets, but now they call Trump a liar.
The media outlets know that rules were changed to make verification of mail-in ballots less verifiable, but they don't care.

My wife keeps asking if God is going to stand by and let this happen and I remind her that he stood by and let 6 million Jews go up the chimney back in the 30’s and 40’s - neither case has anything to do with God. This mess is a man mess and it rests solely on the shoulders of some very corrupt and evil people who worship government and power and damn little else. I really don’t know how you turn this around short of picking up our Pennsylvania long rifles, saddle up, ride North and do this all over again.......

A threat to their democracy is a threat to their elitist ways.

Sure, but the key concept: we are NOT a democracy. Democracy is mob rule...and they know they are the mob that should be ruling us.

Stealing an election and allowing that to happen would turn America (or what's left of it) into a one party dictatorship run by a man with dementia, a fraud VP who is a Marxist, a crazier than a loon Speaker, and potentially a Democrat majority leader who is among the most despicable characters of all time. That appears to be more of a threat to "democracy" than identifying outright fraud in stealing the election.

The threat to our Republic is the predominant media's bias. I am reading in "news" reports, not opinion columns, phrases like "Trump team attempting to subvert voting results". Pursuing legitimate legal recourse is not " subversion".

Letting corruption go unchallenged is a threat to our Democracy. Trump is right to fight this. We know there is election fraud. What remains to be seen is if enough can be proven to overturn the election.

They meant to say was, "a threat to our democrats." Democrats would lose every time without systemic fraud.

The biggest, hugest threat to our Republic is the media, in what they choose to report on (a difference from investigate) and how they report on such chosen subject, and what they give a good leaving alone.
They left alone a fair reporting on the entire Trump agenda. On any infraction, especially those ridiculous moral judgments on tweets, the media did what they could to destroy the man as well as his administration, his Presidency.
This omission/commission sorting of news has been in effect for decades, just exacerbated during the Obama years, when this President could do nothing wrong, indeed, he was treated as divine. We saw a good bit of it during GWB's two terms. Bush was not a pivotal character though, as we saw, he was status quo, and not much of a threat, allowing the leftward drift to proceed with little resistance.
I suspect that part of the reason the media have become proactively the propaganda wing of the Dem Party is that it's a reaction to the perceived persuasiveness of talk radio and to some extent Fox, therefore they must be the counterbalance, in other words, to maintain their dominance over "news" dissemination. Fox gave Conservatives a venue to hear conservative thinkers and politicians and pundits dismissed by every other outlet. This is one reason i won't throw Fox overboard in our home... yet... As of now, for example, Fox still honors and respects the military and traditional values without insulting them, and you can still hear Trump's side of this election fiasco.
Okay, so now we have the media (which of course included the tech sites) firmly into the pockets, deep into the pants pockets, deep in there, of the Democrat Party which i prefer to call the Dem/Left Party, as it is a hybrid, a hybrid with a growing left wing which will eventually drag it down into the la Brea tar pits of political irrelevancy, leaving a monstrosity of despotism. This biased media is the most serious threat to our Republic, as it keeps an awfully large segment of our population IGNORANT. And the Founders warned us that the Constitutional Republic which they crafted required an educated, informed citizenry in order to survive.
Here we are, smack dab on the precipice.

The Presidential election game has changed significantly since 2000. Every election since has been tainted, according to one side or the other for one reason or another, whether hanging chads, natural born status, Russia or now Dominion. There are significant numbers of people who believe legitimacy has been lacking, with no "real" investigation of the outcomes and no punishment ever meted out for anyone above the precinct level. In other words, it's all fair game. Cheating is okay for the winner - the loser to concede and quietly walk away, especially if a Republican.
It is apparent that much of the trouble stems from "progress" in the forms of voting machines. Why are there any algorithms involved in counting votes? It's a simple process. And if machines speed results, why must we wait year after year for this place or that into the wee hours well after polls closed?
We need election reform in the worst way. I would suggest the first step is to eliminate any/all automation. Paper and pen. Then eliminate any mail-in voting except that for which a ballot is requested with appropriate ID provided. This idea of voting as a civic obligation is nonsense. Not voting is no less a powerful choice. We should respect that. Finally, PAC intake should be heavily taxed. One cannot interfere with the "free speech" they enjoy, but one can grab their money before tens of millions are distributed to disrupt the so-called will of the people. A 50 or 75 percent receipts tax would put a dent in the effort without interfering with their "message".

FOX is dead to me. I refuse to turn them on. I'll watch NEWSMAX to get my information.

FTA: “ The biggest threat to our democracy, freedom and prosperity is a sycophant media that campaigns for one party and seeks to destroy the other.“
Mr. Hellner wrote the truth and everyone should read it. It will be dismissed out of hand by the left but every word was truthful. Share this article around. It will bolster our side and give them information they may need if confronted by the left. Of course, not only will democrats never debate its merits they will refuse to even read it. I just shake my head when I hear the nasty lefties pile on this President knowing everything they say and believe is a lie.
Unfortunately the left is so radicalized that they would gladly eliminate every conservative in the country to make their way easy. If there is one thing we have learned these past four years is that democrats will do and say anything, and commit any illegal act to get their way. They have no conscience and their moral compass was broken decades ago. When they parted ways with God, they began a transformation to the dark side and few will turn away. Their enthusiastic embrace of the profane, depraved, greed, lawlessness, and dreadful philosophy that the end justifies the means is a damning indictment of a very sick soul. Indeed...For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Ephesians 6:12

It is not.
The threat is the dishonesty of the perpetrators.

You are correct #1, that this is not on God. We mortals made our choice when Eve decided to listen to a snake instead of God back in the days of the Garden. We brought the sin into paradise, and like a good Father He is, he is giving us the chance to get our bellies full of sin and get tired of it before He begins the clean up.
If God wants Trump to prevail, Trump will. I suspect Trump had God's divine help to get elected in the first place, because nothing seemed to stick to him. Zero. Best teflon for all of us against the powers of darkness is God's protection.
Democrats haven't had anyone seriously challenge them in over 3 Decades, not until Trump. He is the first president that we have had in our corner working for us in DC that I can remember since Reagan. Even Reagan didn't do as much as Trump has.
