Gift To The King - Joseph M by COR Youth

Joseph M. Thompson is assistant professor of history at Mississippi State University, and the author of Cold War Country: How Nashville's Music Row and the Pentagon Created the Sound of American Patriotism (UNC Press, 2024). Thompson's history tracks the deep connections between country music and the U.S. military, uncovering a concerted effort by government officials and cultural creators to cement country culture and national pride (and of course, anti-communism). Our conversation moves from Slim Pickens to Toby Keith, as we explore how the cultural politics of country continue to shape the 21st century.

Bright on Buddhism - Asian Religions Series - Shintō Part 2 Hello and welcome to the Asian religions series. In this series, we will be discussing religious traditions in Asia other than Buddhism. Buddhism never existed in a vacuum, and as it has spread all across East Asia, it has developed, localized, and syncretized with local traditions in fascinating and significant ways. As such, we cannot provide a complete picture of East Asian without discussing those local traditions such as they were and are. Disclaimer: this series is very basic and introductory, and does not and cannot paint a complete picture of these religious traditions as they are in the present or throughout history. Today, we will be discussing Shintō, a very historically and culturally significant religious tradition in Japan. We hope you enjoy Resources: Azegami, Naoki (2012). Translated by Mark Teeuwen.

Este? Lette? Litauer? Oder Balte? Wenn man die Menschen in den drei baltischen Staaten nach ihrer nationalen Identität fragt, bekommt eine ziemlich eindeutige Antwort: Este, Lette oder Litauer natürlich! Trotzdem sehen viele im Rest Europas und der Welt in den baltischen Staaten Estland, Lettland und Litauen eine historische, politische und geographische Einheit. Doch Esten haben sprachlich mit den Litauern nichts zu tun. Die Litauer wiederum hatten im Gegensatz zu Estland und Lettland über Jahrhunderte eine ganz eigene Geschichte. Zwangsweise geeint wurden sie zum ersten Mal im russischen Zarenreich Ende des 18. Jahrhunderts. Und nach dessen Niedergang und einer kurzen Zeit der Unabhängigkeit wurden sie im Zweiten Weltkrieg erst von der Sowjetunion, dann von den deutschen Truppen besetzt und schließlich nach Kriegsende zu Sowjetrepubliken erklärt. Mitte der 1980er Jahre bahnte sich dann der Zerfall der Sowjetunion an, und in allen baltischen Staaten wuchsen die Unabhängigkeitsbewegungen. Am 23. August 1989 gingen die Bilder von der „Singenden Revolution“ um die Welt, als über eine Strecke von mehr als 600 Kilometern eine Menschenkette das estnische Tallinn, das lettische Riga und das litauische Vilnius verband. Esten, Letten und Litauer standen friedlich singend auf gegen die Sowjetherrschaft und erreichten Anfang der 1990er Jahre ihre Unabhängigkeit. Seit 2004 sind sie Mitglieder der Europäischen Union und der NATO.

Country music maintains a special, decades-long relationship to American military life, but these ties didn't just happen. This readable history reveals how country music's Nashville-based business leaders on Music Row created partnerships with the Pentagon to sell their audiences on military service while selling the music to service members. Beginning in the 1950s, the military flooded armed forces airwaves with the music, hosted tour dates at bases around the world, and drew on artists from Johnny Cash to Lee Greenwood to support recruitment programs.  Over the last half of the twentieth century, the close connections between the Defense Department and Music Row gave an economic boost to the white-dominated sounds of country while marginalizing Black artists and fueling divisions over the meaning of patriotism. This story is filled with familiar stars like Roy Acuff, Elvis Presley, and George Strait, as well as lesser-known figures: industry executives who worked the halls of Congress, country artists who dissented from the stereotypically patriotic trappings of the genre, and more.  In Cold War Country: How Nashville's Music Row and the Pentagon Created the Sound of American Patriotism (UNC Press, 2024), Joseph M. Thompson argues convincingly that the relationship between Music Row and the Pentagon helped shape not only the evolution of popular music but also race relations, partisanship, and images of the United States abroad. Joseph M. Thompson is assistant professor of history at Mississippi State University.

Bright on Buddhism - Asian Religions Series - Shintō Part 1 Hello and welcome to the Asian religions series. In this series, we will be discussing religious traditions in Asia other than Buddhism. Buddhism never existed in a vacuum, and as it has spread all across East Asia, it has developed, localized, and syncretized with local traditions in fascinating and significant ways. As such, we cannot provide a complete picture of East Asian without discussing those local traditions such as they were and are. Disclaimer: this series is very basic and introductory, and does not and cannot paint a complete picture of these religious traditions as they are in the present or throughout history. Today, we will be discussing Shintō, a very historically and culturally significant religious tradition in Japan. We hope you enjoy. Do you have a question about Buddhism that you'd like us to discuss?

Single Handed by Joseph M. KressDrug addiction has been a growing problem in America for decades, yet the U.S. boasts one of the most successful drug awareness programs ever developed. How can the crisis be this dire? What retired lieutenant and police detective Joseph M. Kress discovered over the course of his career will leave you stunned. After his brother was killed, Joseph was compelled to action and wanted to join the police force to help solve America's drug problem. What he witnessed was anything but a battle. Instead, he saw mismanagement and apathy from elected officials purporting to be waging war on drugs. Joseph resolved to take the matter into his own hands. Single Handed is a harrowing and deeply moving account of one man's fight against drug abuse.The family tragedy that changed Joseph Kress' life forever became an obsession. His passion to help others from this tragedy made it a private war on drugs. Joe's DrugawarenessUSA.com program was started to save students from the destructive lifetime of addiction and overdose death. http: //www.drugawarenessusa.com/https://authorjosephmkress.com/http://www.urlinkpublishing.comhttp://www.bluefunkbroadcasting.com/root/twia/102623jkurl.com

ChristiTutionalist Politics Joseph M. Lenard You can't help but see the division of the United States happening right before our very eyes. Right versus left. Democrat versus Republican. Black versus White versus Hispanic versus Asian. It's in the news every day. It's happening in the streets every night. It's dividing households and families. It's creating havoc in work places and it's tearing the very fabric of our democracy apart at the seams. So, the question is: “What do we do about it?” This nation was founded on the Judeo-Christian standards of morality and law. Our Constitution was formed and ratified to keep the power in the hands of the people. Not through a majority vote, but through a representative government. But now, we see that the so called “leaders” of this land, at all levels of government, are not there to represent the people, per se… but to line their own pockets at the expense of the people. Jesus famously said, “If a nation is divided against itself, it will not stand.” Abraham Lincoln said that “All the armies of Europe and Asia could not, by force, take a drink of water from the Ohio River or make a track on the Blue Ridge mountains. But if destruction be our lot, we ourselves will be its author and finisher. As a nation of free men, we will live forever or die by suicide.” I believe this nation is standing in the middle of the town square, right now, via our political and ideological differences, with the pistol at our temples and playing “Russian Roulette.” Unless someone intervenes and brings some sense back to the population as a whole, this nation will soon surrender to the Chinese first and then to the Russians as we are divided up for their taking… But, to help spur this country forward, one man is coining a phrase that will soon be heard around the country. That phrase is “ChristiTutionalist.”  Amen!  (CHRIST eh Tutionalist). You've heard of “Constitutionalist” – just say, CHRIST as the first part and “Tutionalist” as the last part. Amen! Joseph M. Lenard has been on our program before. He's and author and speaker and political activist and has been involved in politics up in Michigan since 1978. He's the author of “Terror Strikes: Coming Soon to a City Near You,” as well as his most recent book, “ChristiTutionalist Politics: Christian Based Constitutionalism.” Help me welcome to the program, Joseph M. Lenard. Joseph, it is so good to have you back on the program, brother! Talk to us a minute about the reason WHY you decided to write “ChristiTutionalist Politics” right now, at this point in time? Who is the intended audience for this book? You have a saying, “Principles Not Personalities.” Explain that for us… Can you share with us the view of “The Separation of Church and State” that is always being floated around these days by those who don't believe in Biblical values – and the true meaning of that statement? Ronald Reagan called this nation, “A shining city on a hill.” I'd say that the light has gone out or has faded a great deal. What can revive this country to its...

To lead into the next season of Enduring Interest, we're re-releasing our first two seasons, covering totalitarianism and ideology and liberal education.  We'll be back on September 8 with a new season covering free speech and censorship. In this episode we discuss a short essay by the philosopher Henry Bugbee, “Education and the Style of our Lives.” Bugbee taught for a number of years at the University of Montana. This short, beautiful and thought-provoking essay was occasioned by a report that a commission presented to the Montana legislature. In just over nine pages, Bugbee lays out the core of education as seen from the standpoint of both teacher and student. He seeks the revitalization of a dialogue that brings text and world together—experience is illuminated and meaning is discovered. The piece was published in Profiles, the magazine of the University of Montana in May of 1974. Our guest is Joseph M. Keegin. Joseph talks about Bugbee's insistence that both teacher and student must be capable of self-risk. We discuss Bugbee's reflections on the relationship between liberal learning and experience and how Bugbee's appeal to experience is quite different from the way people appeal to “lived experience” today. We end by thinking about Bugbee's appeal to the duty to bring the past to bear on the present. Joseph makes a plea for people to find a copy of Bugbee's only published book, The Inward Morning, which is a “philosophical exercise conducted through fifteen months of journal entries.” You can find Joseph's essay on Bugbee here and his blog is www.fxxfy.net. Joseph is an editor at Athwart and The Point, and a PhD student in philosophy at Tulane University. He has also written articles for Plough, First Things, Tablet, and The New Atlantis.

The Watergate 'Deep Throat' Secret: A New Investigative Story of Bernstein, Woodward, and the FBI's Mark FeltBy: Joseph M. WebbThe Watergate era, that 1970s decade of Nixon, Woodward and Bernstein, gave us also that strange character with the obscene moniker, DEEP THROAT—an unidentified character for more than thirty years. This book is, in short, the story of DEEP THROAT; not only who he was—he was quite real—but the politically obscene things he did from his Number Two position within the FBI itself. DEEP THROAT was, in fact, Mark Felt, the FBI's feared “hatchet man,” a powerful role that he played with glee and panache.What emerges in these pages is a highly original story, one filled with new Watergate research and observations. Here, too, are serious challenges to the truthfulness of the famous Woodward/Bernstein (and Robert Redford) book and movie, All the President's Men. These pages also include a remarkable assortment of declassified FBI documents about the Watergate break-in and its aftermath, documents replete with examples of Mark Felt's grotesque FBI “signature”—a large, saber-shaped capital “F,” which, in Felt's case, could stand for many things.As a journalist and journalism professor for more than 50 years, the author of this book began his Watergate research even as the events of that era were unfolding in the ‘70s. Webb, Woodward and Bernstein are the same age and were prominent newspaper reporters at the same time—they in Washington DC and he in Chicago and the Illinois state capitol. Webb, who has two doctorate degrees and a dozen earlier books, has collected, analyzed and documented volumes about the Watergate story over all the years since it began.For anyone not yet acquainted with the Watergate past, this book is a rich feast indeed. Anyone interested in American politics will become caught up in Watergate's chicanery, its conniving, its cowardice, its cruelty, its very public lies and deceits, its villains along with a few heroes. As you read these pages, you, too, will get caught up in this provocative Great American DEEP THROAT Story.https://www.josephmwebb.com/https://www.amazon.com/Watergate-Deep-Throat-Secret-Investigative-ebook/dp/B0BQH168HS/ref=sr_1_2?crid=1HRWY72A7V0G2&keywords=joseph+m+webb&qid=1680142596&sprefix=joseph+m+web%2Caps%2C290&sr=8-2http://www.KingPagesPress.comhttp://www.bluefunkbroadcasting.com/root/twia/41323kpp1.mp3

Joseph M. Lenard was born in the 1960s and is very much a person of the 1980s. He is a lifelong (by choice) resident of Wyandotte, Michigan, and former Information Technology professional. Joseph is also a Political/Conservative issues blogger/speaker/writer/vlogger and the holder of 2 dozen+ copyrighted materials. Joseph is with us today to share his journey with leukemia (APL, acute promyelocytic leukemia). ✨A few highlights from the show: 1. Life is serious. You have to keep a sense of humor. It makes the hard things bearable. 2. When it comes to suicide, be someone's Clarence (ref. It's a Wonderful Life). Show them that their life matters! 3. Find a cancer center that can help you with the bills by providing financial assistance.

How to Write and Publish a Book  Joseph M. Lenard pt 2 http://terrorstrikes.info/ ()If you listened to our interview as we discussed Joseph's book, https://amzn.to/3zasYFP (“Terror Strikes: Coming Soon to a City Near You,”)  you heard me ask him to come back on the podcast and discuss the pro's-con's and details of self-publishing. I know many of our listeners have a book inside them and the Lord has put it on your hearts to write that book, but you're not sure of how to go about it. You're not sure of the publishing options. You're not sure if you should hire an editor. You're not sure of a lot of things. Joseph M. Lenard has come back on our program to help you in this area.  Today is part two of our great interview on how you can become a published author... How do you approach a publisher? Do you mail out 1000 manuscripts and hope for the best? That's what we've heard for many years… Self-publishing sounds like the best option for new writers just starting out. Do we need a website for our book? Or can our personal website work and we just put a page up referencing the book? What about book signings and things like that for promotions?

How to Write and Publish a Book  Joseph M. Lenard pt 1 If you listened to our interview as we discussed Joseph's book, https://amzn.to/3zasYFP (“Terror Strikes: Coming Soon to a City Near You,” ) you heard me ask him to come back on the podcast and discuss the pro's-con's and details of self-publishing. I know many of our listeners have a book inside them and the Lord has put it on your hearts to write that book, but you're not sure of how to go about it. You're not sure of the publishing options. You're not sure if you should hire an editor. You're not sure of a lot of things. Joseph, thank you for taking the time to come back on and share this valuable information with our listeners today. I appreciate your time. First up, let's discuss writing the book, then we can get into the publishing aspect. We see movies and such where a writer goes off to a mountain cabin for six months or a year as a recluse and re-emerges with a best-selling novel. Or they go on a cruise for six months and come back with a book. Is that realistic and is that what you did? Do you do one chapter per day? One page per day? Is there a set amount? What about character development? In your book, https://amzn.to/3zasYFP (“Terror Strikes,”) your character is Martin, a Detroit newspaper reporter. How long did it take for you to develop that character? Is there a set writing style for different genres? Fiction, religion, novels, etc.? Tell us about your writing style and how it came about and how you developed it… So you write your chapters and finally, it's finished. Or is it? Once you have the first draft completed, do you turn it over to an editor or do you begin to self-edit first? Can't we just set it aside for a couple of days or weeks and then go back and edit ourself again? How many edits do you usually go through before deciding to turn it over to someone else? At what point do you begin to look for a publisher? What are the different publishing options? Folks, that book the Lord has put on your heart is closer than you may realize. You have to take the first step. I pray that the information Joseph M. Lenard has shared has spurred your though processes to the point that you are now willing to obey the Lord and get this book written, published and distributed to the world. Amen!

Terror Strikes Joseph M. Lenard pt 2 http://terrorstrikes.info/ ()Ever since 911, terrorism has been on the minds of Americans, off and on but never consistently. Proof, let just say, “Oklahoma City Bombing” and, for those old enough to remember, it just sparked a memory. Or “Waco Massacre” and you can visualize the live newscasts. There are others. Since COVID started, there has not been much coverage of “terrorism” or “terrorist threats.” It seems as if the media grew tired of covering these things and would much rather dwell on lockdowns and things like that. Many Americans also feel as if this nation is somehow immune to major attacks. But that is not the case. Not at all. To help illustrate that point and to bring this awareness to the forefront again, my guest today has written a book titled, https://amzn.to/3zasYFP (“Terror Strikes: Coming Soon to a City Near You.”) Joseph M. Lenard a Christian author with a very non-traditional Christian book, published by Illumify Media. Joseph hails from Michigan (which is where I was born and raised) and has been involved in Michigan politics and activism since 1978. Today is part two of a great two part interview! How does social media contribute to the spread of terrorism? You discuss something about Hell in your book. But it's not the “hell” that most people are thinking of. I laugh at this because I know what you are about to tell us. But go ahead and pop this one on our listeners… In Michigan, we have a great comeback for when people tell us to “Go to hell.” We just say, "I've been there and they kicked me out. What's your excuse?”  Or, “Been there and got the T-shirt.” Because that's what we do. Amen! As we get ready to close, I just have to ask you this. Growing up in Michigan, everyone plays hockey. I don't know about anymore, but back when we were growing up, that was how it was. You have a great story about one of the greatest hockey players ever, #9 on the Detroit Red Wings, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gordie_Howe (Gordie Howe.) Can you tell us about that? Joseph, this has been all so interesting. How can someone obtain a copy of your bookhttps://amzn.to/3zasYFP (, “Terror Strikes: Coming Soon to a City Near You?”) Is it on Amazon? If someone wanted to get more information, maybe to ask a question or possibly do an interview such as this, how can they get in touch with you? Folks, as Joseph Lenard has stated, terrorism has not gone away just because the COVID virus shut things down. The news just took it off the headlines. The problem is still there. They are still coming for us. You need to get your own copy of Joseph Lenards book, https://amzn.to/3zasYFP (“Terror Strikes: Coming Soon to a City Near You.”) Go down into the show notes and get your copy today.

Lenard a Christian author with a very non-traditional Christian book, published by Illumify Media. Joseph hails from Michigan (which is where I was born and raised) and has been involved in Michigan politics and activism since 1978. The first question I always ask is, other than that brief information I just shared, can you tell us in your own words, “Who is Joseph M. Lenard?” You're from Wyandotte, Michigan. I know right where that is at. I'm from Marysville, just up the coast of the thumb about 50 miles, just south of Port Huron. You've written other books in the past. What makes this book so special and why did you believe this is the right time to release https://amzn.to/3zasYFP (“Terror Strikes?”) Your book is not just about terrorism, is it? With “Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness,” basically, this is a book for any red blooded American that still loves this country, correct? You mentioned the media has shied away from covering anything related to terrorist activity in the United States. Why do you believe they are not covering this anymore? Do you believe it has something to do with what we see happening (or not happening) down at our southern border with Mexico? And the politics involved with that? You state there was one recent exception to that lack of coverage. Tell us about that one instance (and then what happened)… Who is the target audience that you wrote this book for? You discuss the Torah, the Koran and the Bible in your book, correct?  How do you present these three different views in your book? What does the term “GIJIAS” mean in your book?  (Global Islamic Jihadists Interim Army Soldiers). You say that this is a “book within a book.” Can you explain what that means and how it was used in your book, https://amzn.to/3zasYFP (“Terror Strikes?”) In your research for the book, who did you discover is mainly financing these terrorist activities? Folks, as Joseph Lenard has stated, terrorism has not gone away just because the COVID virus shut things down. The news just took it off the headlines. The problem is still there.

What you do in the privacy of the bedroom never stays there. It always impacts the world. A culture is either built on the fruitfulness of a godly union between one man and one woman, or else it dies from self-inflicted fruitlessness and sexual rebellion against God. Worldview matters, the nuclear family matters, definitions of male and female matter, godly children matter.

The class action lawsuit allows Trump to represent a larger group of people who he claims have been censored as a result of biased policies. “This is going to be a very, very important game changer for our country,” Mr. Trump said. “It will be a pivotal battle in the defense of the First Amendment, and in the end I'm confident that we will achieve a historic victory for American freedom and at the same time freedom of speech.” Mr. Trump was banned from Twitter, Facebook and Instagram in the wake of the January 6 storming of Capitol Hill while he was still President of the United States. Twitter permanently suspended then-President Trump's account due to alleged “risk of further incitement of violence.” “This determination is based on a number of factors, including: President Trump's statement that he will not be attending the Inauguration is being received by a number of his supporters as further confirmation that the election was not legitimate,” Twitter said in a statement. The statement continued, “The use of the words “American Patriots” to describe some of his supporters is also being interpreted as support for those committing violent acts at the US Capitol.” Also in January, Facebook suspended Trump from its platform because, at the time, the “risks of allowing the President” to post on Facebook for the remainder of his term “are simply too great,” CEO Mark Zuckerberg asserted. During the press conference, Mr. Trump was asked how he plans to fight the argument that Facebook, Twitter and Google are private companies, Trump echoed earlier comments from his team asserting they are no longer private companies due to their “collusion” with government entities. “Well, they say that they're private but they're no longer private,” Trump said. Pam Boni, fmr. Florida attorney general and member of America First Policy constitutional litigation team, explained, “When you have Mark Zuckerberg and others being called in front of Congress and being coerced and being questioned by all these congressmen, and then you also have Mark Zuckerberg emailing with Dr. Fauci about COVID…a private company is communicating with the federal government and parts of that were redacted,” she continued. “[The social media companies] are not immune [under Section 230] anymore.”” Pfizer vaccine less effective against delta variant https://thehill.com/policy/healthcare/public-global-health/561627-pfizer-vaccine-less-effective-against-delta-variant?rl=1 According to the Hill: “A study conducted in Israel found that the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine is somewhat less effective against the more infectious delta variant, though it was still found to be effective at preventing severe illness. As The Wall Street Journal reports, the Pfizer vaccine protected 64 percent of immunized people during an outbreak of the delta variant, a sharp drop when compared to the 94 percent of people it had previously been shown to protect. However, the shot was still 94 percent effective at preventing severe illness, a slight decrease from the 97 percent that were kept from experiencing severe illness previously. The data for the study was collected from June 6 through early July, according to officials from Israel's Health Ministry. The data and the methodology of the study was not released, according to the Journal.” Folks- I am excited to let you know about our new partnership with Dime Payments.

The statement also claimed the situation was “under control.” Authorities shut down Port-au-Prince's international airport to prevent suspects from fleeing and have prevented planes arriving there on flights that left before the assassination from landing. In addition to First Lady Martine Moïse, one of the president's children was present for the attack but reportedly uninjured. Moïse was 53 years old. Moïse took over for predecessor Michel Martelly in the aftermath of the chaotic 2015 elections as a placeholder president. Moïse insisted that his term began in 2017, thus making him legitimate president through 2022, but faced opposition who claimed that his term had expired by this year and branded him a dictator. Opposition leaders attempted to install a parallel president, 72-year-old judge Joseph Mécène, in February, but Mécène has not received any international recognition and has not made any significant public pronouncements since allegedly becoming president. In addition to pressure from opposition leaders to step down, Moïse faced mounting demands from Haitian business leaders to consider establishing relations with China. Haiti is one of the few remaining nations in the world to recognize Taiwan's sovereignty and maintain close ties to that country. Under the Communist Party's “One China” policy, Beijing does not maintain any diplomatic relations with countries that recognize Taiwan. In an interview with Taiwan News published Wednesday, Haiti's ambassador to Taiwan asserted that Moïse valued the bilateral relationship and had no intention of accepting lucrative Chinese loan offers to abandon Haiti's relationship with Taiwan. Joseph, the prime minister, was scheduled to soon leave his post after serving three months in office. Moïse announced the appointment of his seventh prime minister, Ariel Henry, on Monday. Joseph congratulated Henry and had not indicated any conflict existed between the two.” Newsom needs to halt transgender mixing of prison populations, women advocates say https://news.yahoo.com/newsom-needs-halt-transgender-mixing-201200699.html According to Yahoo News: “A California law allowing transgender inmates to pick the prison gender of their choice has come under fire from a women's rights group citing abuse of females by men. In a letter to Gov. Gavin Newsom, the Women's Liberation Front accused the state of violating the constitutional rights of incarcerated women by allowing men into their living quarters to “prey on women.” Since the law took effect on Jan. 1, WLF has received numerous complaints of assaulted, abused, and traumatized women at the hands of male inmates transferred into their prisons, WoLF Legal Director Lauren Adams said. “We are working with a woman who was punched in the face so hard by a new transfer that she couldn't chew for three days. He was taken away and released back in a different yard with no restrictions,” Adams said. “He was her cellmate. She had to sleep with him.” Other women have been sexually abused in the past and must now contend with nude men sharing communal showers, Adams said. “One woman went in there with two naked men showering who still had penises,” Adams added. “It was incredibly traumatic and scary, to know for, [possibly], the rest of their lives they are going to be subjected to this.” The state currently has 273 transfer requests; 266 are from people housed at male institutions requesting to be transferred to a female institution, and seven are from people at female institutions requesting to be transferred to a male institution, according to the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation. California has 1,286 inmates identified as transgender or nonbinary. Currently, 24 male prisoners have been transferred to female institutions. WoLF theorizes that many men transferring into women's prisons are not transgender but are just trying to escape their current living situation.” Pennsylvania GOP state Sen. Mastriano announces investigation into 2020 election results https://justthenews.com/nation/states/pennsylvania-state-sen-doug-mastriano-announces-investigation-2020-general-election According to Just the News: “ennsylvania state Sen. Doug Mastriano announced Wednesday that he will lead an investigation into the state's election system, saying it will "go a long way to restore trust." In his capacity as chairperson of the state Senate's Intergovernmental Operations Committee, Mastriano sent letters to Pennsylvania counties requesting information needed for his investigation. "A forensic investigation of our election results and processes for the 2020 General Election and the 2021 primary will go a long way to restore trust in our system," Mastriano, a Republican, said in a press release. "Voting is the fundamental right of all citizens. We should continually look for ways to improve the voting process to ensure every voice is heard." Pennsylvania follows Arizona in efforts to examine the results of last year's election results, amid concerns about voting irregularities and fraud, and to try to ensure systems are secure for future balloting. Much of the concern about fraud centers on mail-in ballots. In 2020, there were 2.7 million mail-in ballots cast, compared to 263,000 in 2016. Mastriano also said the state's Supreme Court changed its guidances and rulings on mail-in ballots, just days before the 2020 elections, which perhaps left the system more vulnerable to fraud or other voter miscount.  However, Mastriano make clear the intent of the probe is not to try to  overturn the results of the 2020 election.” Closing This is Gabriel Rench with Crosspolitic News.
