According to The Hill and reporters around the web, Donald Trump’s campaign website removed mentions of supposed “Muslim ban” just a few minutes after ABC News’ Cecilia Varga asked Press Secretary Sean Spicer about it during Monday’s White House press briefing.

“If this White House is no longer calling this a Muslim ban, as the president did initially, why does the president’s website still explicitly call for ‘preventing Muslim immigration’ and it says ‘Donald J. Trump is calling for a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States,’” Vega asked the press secretary during the briefing.

Spicer responded by saying that he was unaware of what was on the campaign’s website, but President Trump’s travel ban is based on protecting “national security” interests, and that “the intent of the travel ban was very clear”.

Journalists noticed soon after Varga’s questioning, however, that the press release calling for a “total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States until our country’s representatives and figure out what is going on” had been removed, along with all of the campaign’s other press statements.

1. The election was stolen by on the ground russian agents and gop operatives.

I am going to say this day after day.

There are more of us than them, he didnt win those states.

This is all madness.

2. I don't agree the russians or republicans were on the ground changing voting machines. They just

messed with the hearts and heads of americans who then voted the way they voted.

4. Why were so many boxes of voter ballots damaged and rendered un-countable

in one of the recount states when the recount was tried? I can't find the actual link right now. But here are some other ways that they always use to fix the damn elections.

No, but they are old, and in some cases, busted. An astonishing 87 machines broke down in Detroit, responsible for counting tens of thousands of ballots. Many more were simply faulty and uncalibrated.

I met with Carlos Garcia, University of Michigan multimedia specialist, who, on Election Day, joined a crowd waiting over two hours for the busted machine to be fixed.

Some voters left; others filled out ballots that were chucked, uncounted, into the bottom of machine. When the machine was fixed, Carlos explained, "Any new scanned ballots were falling in on top of the old ones." It would not be possible to recount those dumped ballots.

Some tampered with warrenty seals. http://www.palmerreport.com/news/wisconsin-recount-observers-discover-five-vote-counting-machines-with-tampered-seals/345/

6. I respect that position. Let me ask you a question.

Do you believe the KGB and now the FSB routinely places spies on the ground here, in some cases born here?

Do you believe they hold positions as politicians, talk show hosts maybe, officials in all areas of local and state government? I dont mean there are thousands of them but in strategically placed positions, when possible, here and there.


And most importantly, do you think Vladimir Putin was handed a sycophant, a tool, the ultimate useful idiot in Trump and then left the decision of who to elect up to YOU and ME?

That for the first time in history they had an actual spy in training, willing to sell out America for a smile or hand compliment or oil Exxon deal and they didnt hack our system?

I dont think that is possible, myself.

7. This would probably constitute spoliation of evidence if it wasn't just so stupid.

Given that anyone can easily pull up archived versions on the internet with ease.

I mean, it's still spoliation of evidence, but honestly, it's just so clueless and dumb.
