Tyler Durden ~ November 25, 2016
Just yesterday we noted that Jill Stein was acting on behalf of Hillary Clinton to raise money for recounts in Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania. As we noted then, we continue to be astonished by the amount of money flowing into the fundraising campaign and would love to see which of Hillary's mega-donors have spent the most on the effort...somehow we suspect this isn't just a "grassroots organizing" effort as Stein described it.

So, in less than one day, Jill Stein raised over $3 million, which is more than the $2 million needed to force a recount in Wisconsin. While she attributed the accomplishment to "the power of grassroots organizing," we would tend to be a little more skeptical and would love to see exactly where those donations came from. Then again, maybe we're wrong and there really are just that many disaffected snowflakes out there willing to blow their money on an extreme long shot.

But, today a new mystery has emerged in Stein's fundraising efforts. Apparently, the more money she raises the more expensive the recount effort becomes. Courtesy of the Wayback Machine we have the following snapshots from her fundraising page over the past couple of days:

November 24, 2016 at 3:46AM – In the beginning, Stein figured she needed a total of $2.5 million to fund her recount efforts. That figure included $2.2 million for the actual filing fees and presumably another $0.3 million for legal fees and other costs.

November 24, 2016 at 1:20PM – Then, just 12 hours later, after the cash just kept flowing in, Stein figured she needed at least another $2 million as her fundraising goal was raised to $4.5 million in total. Of course, the filing fees of $2.2 million didn't change but the "attorney's fees" apparently surged by about 300 percent and the total costs of the effort skyrocketed to $6-7 million.

November 25, 2016 at 6:11AM – Now, just this morning as Stein approaches $5 million in total donations, her overall fundraising goal has surged once again and now stands at $7 million.

So, with nearly $5 million raised so far, the question is no longer whether recounts will occur in WI, MI and PA but just how much Jill Stein will be able to drain from the pockets of disaffected Hillary supporters to fund her long-shot efforts.

All that said, here is Jill Stein admitting to CNN that she has absolutely no evidence of e******n hacking....even though she asks that you please keep sending your money anyway. Also later in the interview Stein says she would have challenged the e******n result even if Hillary won...though somehow we suspect she wouldn't have been able to raise quite so much money under that scenario.

And finally we leave you with this latest epic rant from PJW on the whole situation:

You say you're tired of Black V**ers and their loyalty to the Democratic Party! Here's your chance! Obama has turned out to be a POS and possibly the worse President that ever crawled out of a sewer pipe. Black Democratic Leadership are toadies! http://youtu.be/1D_Ld6r_FNo

The DNC are spiritually bankrupt. If you're sincere about being the Republican Party of yesteryear prove it. I predict the Democratic Party will become the r****ts of old. They have no choice. They have become irrelevant. I refuse to personally listen to Obama's clap trap any longer. http://youtu.be/sA6MCjGEsTg

• European criticism of Trump goes far beyond a simple displeasure with the man who will be the next president. The condemnation reveals a deep-seated contempt for the United States, and for American v**ers who democratically elected a candidate committed to restoring American economic and military strength.
• The primary cause of the global disorder is the lack of American leadership at home and abroad. A series of feckless decisions by Obama to reduce American military influence abroad have created geopolitical power vacuums that are being filled by countries and ideologies that are innately hostile to Western interests and values.
• For the past seven decades, the U.S. has spent hundreds of millions of dollars annually to guarantee German security, although Germany steadfastly refuses to honor a NATO pledge to spend 2% of GDP on defense spending. Germans are now offended that Trump is asking them to pay their fair share for their own defense.
• Although President Obama's foreign policy missteps have made Europe much less safe than it was eight years ago, European elites have overlooked Obama's mistakes because he is a "g*******t" who seems to favor recreating the U.S. in the European image. Trump, by contrast, is a nationalist who wants to rebuild the U.S. in the American, not the European, image.
• European anti-Americanism is certain to escalate in the years ahead, not because of Trump or his policies, but because "g*******ts" appear desperate to save the failing European Union, an unt***sparent, unaccountable, anti-democratic, sovereignty-grabbing alternative to the nation state.



In Germany, Der Spiegel, one of the largest-circulation publications in Europe, published a cover, after Donald Trump's e******n victory, with an image of a giant meteor in the shape of Trump's head hurtling towards the earth. The headline reads: "The End of the World (As We Know It)".

There is only one time when rule by the people is possible. That is when the people have strong moral rectitude. Even then it is tenuous. The average person on the street thinks he or she knows what goes on in politics, but he or she does not. They have no clue. Therefore they have no way of knowing who to v**e for or what a particular candidate really stands for. The average person has no clue how insidious the elite are or where they come from. The average person would never believe you when you tell them the elite are the offspring of the fallen angels of Genesis 6. Nor do they believe you when you tell them the government is ruled by the bankers and the military industrial complex. These people believe what they are taught in school, which is controlled by the elite, by what they read and hear in mainstream news, which is also ruled by the elite. They think they are informed, but are fed lies constantly, day after day. They have no clue what goes on in Washington. And even when some political leaders try to tell them, they just ignore it. There are some in this forum that will just mock you when you make such statements, having no idea the depth of illusion they have fallen for. But the day of reckoning is coming. Hopefully many will be prepared for it.
