Trump tries to blame Obama for America's coronavirus failures as death toll mounts

Pennsylvania State Sen. Doug Mastriano had wanted to conduct an Arizona-style vote "audit" of his state's 2020 elections results -- but it's already hit a major roadblock.

CNN reports that Philadelphia County, Tioga County and York County this week all declined Mastriano's request to hand over their election materials and voting machines to a third-party inspector.

Speaking on Steve Bannon's Real America's Voice show this Friday, MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell explained why he pulled all his ads from Fox News after the network refused to air an ad promoting his "cyber symposium" that he claims will reveal evidence for mass voter fraud in the 2020 election.

"Fox News is completely part of the cancel culture," Lindell told Bannon. "They have silenced our voices, and mine being the biggest one ... they won't even report on news or an event anymore, so I said, 'You know what? If you're gonna do that to our country, I'm pulling all my ads, I can't be part of Fox News anymore."

According to Washington Post columnist Paul Waldman, the audit of the 2020 presidential ballots in Arizona's Maricopa County could have handed Republicans a tool to contest election results in other states if it hadn't been conducted by a group of misfits who ended up embarrassing the GOP nationally.

As it was, the liberal columnist suggested, the botched attempt to overturn the election results in favor of Donald Trump might end up being a gift to Democrats.
