The Big Con Gets Big Premiere At Gatsby’s — The grand premiere of The Big Con is tonight, Oct. 17, at Gatsby’s Bar and Grill, 4926 Pennell Road, Aston, Pa. 19014. It concerns election fraud in Delaware County, Pa. and features Greg Stenstrom and Leah Hoopes, the authors of The Parallel Election.
Those attending are asked to spend at least $15 on food or drinks, which is not hard to do in the Biden-Harris era.
Mom Describes Mistreatment In Delco Family Courts — Delaware County (Pa.) Council, last night, Oct. 16, heard another tale of abuse and injustice concerning its family courts.
Janet Rousse (phonetic) who fled Delco after losing a custody battle says she has not seen her children in a regular way in a year. She couldn’t afford a lawyer, unlike her husband, and represented herself. She asked council to look into ways to make things more fair.
She also said her phone calls have been monitored and that HIPAA violations occurred during her hearing.
Regardless, a parent should never lose regular access to a child unless violence is a concern.
In other matters, Linda Emery (phonetic) of Media praised Council for the 3rd Street Bridge project but asked it to address concerns about runoff into Broomall’s Lake.
Olivia Thorne, a past president of the League of Women Voters thanked Council for its satellite voting centers.
Scott Thomas of Marple praised the County’s poll worker training system and lead the room in a Hail Mary in honor of Rosary Month.
At the meeting’s start, Council Chairwoman Monica Taylor noted the crisis being caused by the closure of hospitals in Delco.
DA Says Taxpayers Saving Money On Prison Despite 24% Budget Hike — Delaware County (Pa) District Attorney, last night, Oct. 16, boasted to County Council that George W. Hill Prison has a third of the inmates as it did before the Dems took over Delco’s government.
Kimberly Brown of Colwyn, a case worker at the facility, again took issue during public comments with how the jail was being run.
She said a misleading report is being spread regarding a report of a fire at Hill. She said an inmate pulled a fire alarm causing an incident. Ms. Brown said the staffing shortage is severe and there has been no fire drill since Laura Williams took over as warden on Jan. 31, 2022.
Ms. Brown said employees are quitting.
So Jack, with 66 percent fewer prisoners and a smaller staff why are the taxpayers paying 24 percent more for the facility, and how exactly do you think they are saving money?
Ms. Brown, frighteningly, said she has been under investigation since May by authorities at Hill for speaking out at council.
She’s not the only one saying she’s getting repercussions for daring to expose problems. See Sharon Devaney’s comments in this story and see what Janet Rousse (phonetic) says in the next one.

GOP Candidate Demands Delco Machines Be Quarantined And Investigated — Congressional candidate Alfe Goodwin of Drexel Hill told County Council last night, Oct. 16, that Delaware County, Pa is violating state and federal rules regarding voting machine testing.
A injunction was filed Oct. 11 to quarantine the 18 machines tested in September to protect the chain of custody. She said they must be given to the FBI for investigation.
The remaining 838 precinct machines must then be tested to see if they have the same problems, she said.
The problems are that the tested machines are not in the configuration verified by either the federal Election Assistance Commission or the Pennsylvania Department of State.
She further said that the “trusted build” performed in September was done on only 2 percent of the machines. One must be done all all 856 precinct machines for an election to be valid.
It would violate the law for these machines to be used Nov. 5.
Ms. Goodwin is the Republican nominee for Pennsylvania’s 5th Congressional District. She called for her Democrat opponent, incumbent Mary Gay Scanlon, to join her in demanding the law be followed.
The 5th District consists of all of Delaware County along with parts of Philadelphia, Montgomery and Chester counties.
The case filed to enjoin the use of the machines is CV 2024008838.
That election doubts are widespread is entirely the fault of certain government bodies including Delaware County Council.
This group fights rulings by the Pennsylvania Office of Open Records to release election documents. They refuse to give poll watchers the expected access at the central ballot counting center.
Now, they have reached the point where congressional candidates are calling foul.
There is no innocent explanation for Council’s behavior.
Also last night, Charlie Alexander of Marple said he was told by police that people have been seen dropping 10 or 15 ballots in election dropboxes. Donna Yarnell of Marple said Delco has more dropboxes than any other county in the state.
This is true.
Councilwoman Christine Reuther boasted at meeting’s start about Delco’s 36 drop boxes. This is more than either Philadelphia or Allegheny counties which are much larger and include major cities.
Kathy from Haverford said that half the solar cameras supposedly providing security on the boxes don’t work.
Kathy also questioned the pop-up satellite voter services offices put up by the county and noted that Councilman Kevin Madden has yet to address his business connections to the BlueCrest ballot sorters used by the county.
Tom Flocco of Upper Providence encouraged all to watch the documentary Big Con which featured video of suspicious actions during Delaware County elections.
Bill from Upper Darby reminded all holding an oath of office that following orders is not an excuse.
“We will have our republic back,” he said.
At the beginning of the meeting, Ms. Reuther said that the county has received 27,000 ballots so far with 20,000 coming by mail, 4,000 being left at the Courthouse and 3,550 coming from community dropboxes.

Sanctuary Claims Continue Despite Delco Denial — Executive Director Barbara O’Malley told County Council, last night, Oct. 16, that allegations that Delaware County, Pa. was a sanctuary for illegals were objectively false.
The allegations stem from at least 2016 and are based on claims that the county declined detainers for illegals sought by ICE.
Mrs. O’Malley said a thorough investigation was made with Delco’s George W. Hill Prison and with ICE . The county was in perfect compliance with ICE, she said.
The public forum, however, brought forth persuasive rebuttals.
Marple residents Charlie Alexander and Gary Ryder said that mattresses suspected to be used by illegals are most definitely on the floors of the former Don Guanella building at the county’s Delco Woods park. Ryder said Marple Police specifically told him they are ordered to stand down and free the suspects when they discover the lawbreakers are illegals.
And Sharon Devaney of Ardmore again pointed out the 2017 accident that left her crippled and nearly killed her daughter. No charges were filed against the driver of the striking car — despite her breaking several laws — solely because she was an illegal.
Sharon also said that since she has begun speaking out at council meetings, her bank account has been hacked and looted; her car payments have been tampered; and she received a notice from a debt service that she had died.
Defending Council were two women, one of whom said that illegals couldn’t be staying in the Don Guanella buildings because they would be reported if they were.
We suspect she was missing certain implications in the discussion.
More stories from last night are coming, including a public statement about voting machines by congressional candidate Alfe Goodwin.

Answer to yesterday’s William Lawrence Sr Cryptowit quote puzzle: People commonly travel the world over to see rivers and mountains, new stars, garish birds, freak fish, grotesque breeds of human; they fall into an animal stupor that gapes at existence and they think they have seen something.

Trump Pleases Tired Crowd By Postponing Politics For Music In Pa. — Last night’s (Oct. 14) Trump Town Hall at the Greater Philadelphia Expo Center in Oaks, Pa. will be legendary.
The venue maximum 5,000 crowd — some who can come from as far away as Indiana – packed the poorly ventilated, poorly concessioned facility after standing under the October sun for up to six hours.
When doors finally opened almost an hour behind scheduled about half found they had to continue standing.
The crowd had expected to hear The Donald take questions from audience members then give the expected answers with his trademark wry humor and exaggeration.
After taking a few and recognizing a Gold Star family in attendance, one of the crowd collapsed in a side bleacher. Trump put matters on hold and expressed concern. He obviously feared the worst. He asked that Ave Maria be played on the sound system. The man was carried from his seat and placed on a stretcher. As he was wheeled away, he recovered enough to raise his fist bringing forth loud cheers.
As Trump prepared to take the next question from moderator South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem, a person collapsed in the bleachers on the other side. Trump again stopped matters as care was rendered.
Trump then harshly criticized the venue. Ignoring concerns from Secret Service, he ordered the roll-up doors used to truck in vendor displays opened, which greatly improved ventilation.
He then stopped the town hall and played music for the rest of the night to the crowd’s ecstatic delight. Most stayed until Trump finally stepped down from the stage, which was about an hour after the music started. His selection ranged from Pavarotti to Jeff Buckley to Sinéad O’Connor to, of course, The Village People. He ended with November Rain by Guns n’ Roses.
Newswise, long-time Democrat Peter Deutsch, who served more than 20 years as a Florida congressman took the podium to give an enthusiastic endorsement of Trump.
