It’s not corruption, it’s incompetence.
They never tested the app state wide. When one precinct had a problem with it, they sent a guru who couldn’t fix it and they went with it anyway.
The app doesn’t work, plain and simple, they didn’t do due diligence to find out in time.
Next up. Nevada. They’re set up to use the same app.

App used in Iowa Democratic caucus fiasco linked to ex-Clinton campaign staffers
The app that was supposed to help the Iowa Democratic Party quickly report Monday’s caucus results – but contributed to confusion and a muddled result as campaigns were in an uproar – is linked to Hillary Clinton campaign veterans.
Shadow, a tech firm that describes itself as a group that creates “a permanent advantage for progressive campaigns and causes through technology,” is the company that created the Iowa Democratic Party’s app, according to The New York Times. At least the COO, CEO, CTO and a senior product manager at Shadow all worked for the Hillary Clinton presidential campaign, according to LinkedIn profiles.

@ eaglesoars:
It’s gonna make me laugh like hell if they haven’t adjusted it and it says Hillary won.
Can’t run a country – let’s give them complete charge of our health care and 401K’s!!
Personally, I’m seriously hoping that the Democrats boycott the SOTU today. Including Nancy Pelosi. We could put one of those blow up dolls in her seat. No one will notice. Same blank expression.

Saw this post at Ace’s:
AP: In a brazen mockery of the theories attributing election tampering to him, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced that he had the results of the Iowa Democratic caucus in hand. He would not identify the winner by name, but did say “it is a good day to be a gay high school student from Indiana.”
LMAO

I SAW that! What a nice thing to think of.
So did I miss anything while I was out saving the national GDP? Chris Plante had a drop-dead funny story. An older woman, about my age, but apparently not quite as sharp, is a Dem Iowa Caucus person, aka DIC. She’s all ready to vote for Buttigieg. Chris has the whole thing on audio and her voice sounds like she’s 90, so..what you hear is
Woman 1: Oh yes, he’s married. He has a husband
DIC – He’s married to a MAN??
Keep in mind, this campaign has been going on for months, and she obviously doesn’t know jack – or Pete, for that matter.
Then she says: “Well I don’t want thaaaaaat in the White House. Can I have my card back?
I was pulling into a parking space and laughed so hard the wheel slipped and I almost had a WHOOPSIE!.
I wonder how civilization has ever developed.

Although it does beg the question – why the hell was she voting FOR him? He’s as much a socialist nutjob as Bernie. Did she not hear his response to the pro-life Democrat last week??
@ The Barbarian:
She doesn’t appear to be well-informed about the most basic aspects of Pete. My guess is she thought he’s the cute, harmless type and a good Christian
Does anybody know something about a phone system breakdown in Iowa? Steyn keeps saying it’s not just the app issue, but also the phone issue that makes it all suspicious

I don’t know if there is a mechanism for investigating Schifft for his role in all this and denial of same, but I hope there is.
They seem to forget that SOMEONE leaked information to Ciaramella. Who was NOT authorized to get it.

Oh, the SOTU is going to be lit
Trump is going to award the Medal of Freedom to – Rush Limbaugh
I’m betting members like Tlaib won’t be able to keep it together and will get hauled out of the chamber. Or Pelosi will turn her back. Or something.
But the Dems/Left will have a temper tantrum and that will take up the news cycle for 24 hrs.
@ eaglesoars:
I’m pretty sure that he’s just going to announce it tonight, not make the actual presentation
@ lobo91:
Probably. But it will be enough.

Good news! Two hours ago power went off here so although I would LOVE to watch the SOTU address unfortunatly I could not.
However, bad news…. Power just came back on.
Seriously, all that standing up and clapping drives me nuts. Previous years I have tried to watch SOTU and it is BORING!
Much more interesting to read the transcript the following day.
A bit like watching American Football live. BORING! But if they edited out all the time outs and crap American Football may be a decent sport to watch.
Trump sucks at this racism thing
Rush looks totally stunned. I can’t believe the entire country knew and he didn’t.
And Melania is giving it to him in the gallery!
finally. 2A.
HA! Pelosi rips up his speech.
@ eaglesoars:
Unfortunately, that’s all that will be in the news cycle after a great SOTU speech.
Nancy’s temper tantrum.

UNFORTUNATELY? Hardly. Here is her spokesperson quoting Nancy.
“I tore it up. I was trying to find one page with truth on it. I couldn’t”.
So she doesn’t believe Baghdadi, kidnapped, raped and murdered Kayla Mueller?
I don’t know what demo of the voters Pelosi thinks that stunt and her rationale will convince/persuade to not vote for Trump, other than the already rabid left, but I can think of quite a few demos that it will absolutely disgust.
eaglesoars wrote:
that’s gonna make a great commercial!
The White House promptly issued a blistering response to Pelosi’s temper tantrum.
“Speaker Pelosi just ripped up:
One of our last surviving Tuskegee Airmen.
The survival of a child born at 21 weeks.
The mourning families of Rocky Jones and Kayla Mueller.
A service member’s reunion with his family.” the White House said.
@ coldwarrior:
One thing I missed. There was a lot of comment about how Trump didn’t shake Pelosi’s hand at the beginning. But when I watched the replay, I have to wonder if he actually SAW it. He was halfway (at least) turned away from her. AND…turns out, the tradition is for the Speaker to introduce POTUS with “Ladies and Gentlemen, it is my high honor to introduce the POTUS”.
She omitted “my high honor”.
She didn’t get her side any new voters, it was a dumb stunt. I’m sure it reinforced her base but so what?

its like watching a cult

I was online w/some Brits last nite. They like Boris, totally anti-EU people. But they watched Trump’s speech and were instantly depressed. One described it as:
“Boris: We’re going to fix these potholes”
Trump: We’re going to Mars”
The differences in the national mindset boggles.
must run, later.

@ eaglesoars:
A lot is being said that Rush was faking it when the President announced he was receiving the Medal of Freedom. I’m not so sure. He does not watch CNN (who leaked the off-the-record announcement the President made at the lunch they weren’t permitted to attend) and the fact that he was traveling with his wife Katherine and may have just taken a break from politics and news to enjoy the SOTU invitation.
I had no idea Katherine is SO beautiful.
Wonder if we’ll have Mark Steyn today since Rush is out of town. He might have arranged to do his show from a local affiliate.
Speaking of Steyn, if and when it ever comes to it, I wonder if the “EIB Network” will just cease to exist without Rush or if they will appeal to Steyn to take the reins. I hope he does. He’s very much like Rush in the way he informs, and his humor is wonderful. I do enjoy his substitution days.

Rush does not lie. Period. Full Stop. My only question is how they managed to keep him clueless all day.
Chris Plante said that he had to be transported thru the Capitol to the gallery in a wheelchair. Dang. I’ve been there, it IS a long walk, no question, but….dang.
@ eaglesoars:
That is so sad to hear. I’m amazed the jerks at CNN and MSNBC didn’t get it on their cameras and broadcast it.
I have to say – I DO like that beard though. Gives him a real “elder statesman” look!
momcat watched the whole speech and said nancy just came off as an absolute
bitch, as in she’s been soaking in vodka all day
@ rain of lead:
I imagine she was. It was late in the day and I expect she hits the Smirnoff’s before noon.
And I’m not all sure that it was a glass of WATER in front of her.
And there it is. The single largest donor of Shadow Inc., the company behind the failed Iowa Caucus app, is George Soros.

Naturally, you have to wonder if these are false flag type things, but even if they are, WELL PLAYED!!
One of the calls was from a man who had the speech pattern Rick Wilson made fun of as being a rube, uneducated, knuckledragging Trump supporter. Well, he is now, thanks to you and yours Rick. Good work, asswipe
@ eaglesoars:
Dems are really starting to look like a cult
Romney voted to remove Trump.
You’re one and done in the Senate, you piece of sh*t.
Faith my ass, Romney
pride, greed, lust, wrath, gluttony, envy, and sloth.
5 out of 7 for mit…maybe he forgot to read this part of the bible? his faith…doncha know.
Grassley should immediately strip him of his Committee assignments. He can become a Democrat then. And Manchin can probably kiss his Senate seat goodbye as well.
What I cannot fathom is what Romney’s endgame is here. He’s not going to be re-elected in Utah. Some are speculating that he’s worried about his own ties to the whole Ukraine mess and Burisma.
I’m sure he’s thrilled at all the accolades he’s receiving from the left. They LOVE him! Just like they did when he signed RomneyCare. Meanwhile, if I were him, I wouldn’t go back to Utah any time soon.
