Newt: “The founding fathers took very seriously a due process which starts with voting, goes to counting, then goes to recounting, then goes potentially to the court, then goes to the state legislature, and then ultimately generates electors who then have to go to Congress.”

NEWT:
I think they’ll take them very seriously because in some cases when you get into a city like Philadelphia Pittsburgh or Detroit, this person could be risking their life. It’s not a small thing to be a whistle-blower when you are around a machine, and these are machines. There are very tough, ruthless groups who were quite prepared to hurt your children or hurt you. I’ve already encountered one person who was willing reluctantly to come out and give an affidavit but literally said he worries about his children, he’s convinced it will destroy his business, and the people we are talking about are very ruthless so I do think you are seeing a remarkable period here, with more and more people are coming forth and presently it will become a flood. There’s a magic moment in these kinds of investigations where all of a sudden, enough different people are coming forward that they say I’m going to do it, it’s the right thing to do, and I think a week from now, we will have amazingly more evidence of just how corrupt the system has become.
NEWT:
Look this goes to the heart of the American system, the founding fathers took very seriously a due process which starts with voting, goes to counting, then goes to recounting, then goes potentially to the court, then goes to the state legislature, and then ultimately generates electors who then have to go to congress. This is a very elaborate, deliberate process by people who knew a lot about power and who did not want exactly what the media tried to do the last four or five days which is to have a mob effect were we are all supposed to rollover attending that there’s been a coronation and Biden has been crowned which is just not true. Not a single state has been certified, I think there will be lawsuits in six different states. I think this is clearly up in the air, but the important thing is for the average American should be simple. We have to have a process of honest elections or our power as individuals just doesn’t matter. And so we are fighting not for Donald Trump, we are fighting for the very right of every American to expect that their elections will be honest and that’s how serious and how fundamental this is.
NEWT:
We had a case in Philadelphia couple of years ago where a democratic state senator so corrupt and election law that they actually replaced him with his Republican opponent shifting the balance of power in the state senate. And the judge just said I had no choice my you are clearly a crook and I’m not going to let you be in office.
