Masterfully handled by this Georgia official. Youre an inspiration!

Trump is worse than Nixon.
Nixon realized his mistake & resigned.
I've always said "numbers don't lie, but people do." This recorded audio tape is living proof of that reality !
That really proves what an idiot he is, and doesn’t know what he’s doing half the time.He just Squealed on hisself by begging these guys to cheat for him for more votes, on a phone line that can be recorded. DUH 🙄 🤷🏼♀️
This is Donny's life, bullying and cheating for what he wants. Nothing new, he's been doing it his entire life.

Also Texas arrested some Rep on Voter Fraud Yet Don talked so much Smack on Fraud & that Rep Busted for voting Fraud oh how that can Work,the ppl who Talk Loud on certain Topics tend to be part of the nonsense They Clain someone else is guilty for,How sad and I saw what they spoke of w those votes & the OT ppl had to put in & poor RUBY she didn't deserve that & hope she Sues him DON for Slander.
Sadly: It will come to nothing.
There's never been a better phone call ever. When you think of me think of this phone call. 🤣😍
How does it feel knowing you got fooled by the left wing media, 60 Minutes, Washington Post, and the Sec. of State?
All of this occurred in Georgia just before the run-offs elections in Georgia on January 5th. Can you not see the deception? They did this to influence the voters in Georgia. I wonder just who exactly "leaked" this January 2nd phone call? Can you use logic? Think hard about this!
"We have learned that the call on January 2nd was not Trump's first attempt. Sources tell us that last month, Trump himself phoned one of Georgia's Secretary of State's investigators. A person briefed on the call said Trump told the investigator they would *be a national hero if they found evidence of fraud." It is so convenient that January 3rd or 4th was when the phone call with the Governor and Trump was released... This particular audio recording just so happens to have Trump saying "I need only 11, 780 votes. So, what are we going to do here, folks? Fellas, I need 11,000 votes. Give me a break" What's even MORE CONVENIENT is that an "anonymous source" that was "briefed" on the phone call with the Georgia's Sec. of State's staff (the election's investigator) told WaPo that Trump told the investigator "Find the fraud" and that "You will be a National Hero if you find the fraud."
"The Washington Post has added a lengthy correction to a bombshell report from early January that had said then-President Trump told Georgia's top elections investigator during a phone call to "find the fraud" and that they would be "a national hero" if they did so.
Two months after publication of this story, the Georgia secretary of state released an audio recording of President Donald Trump’s December phone call with the state’s top elections investigator. The recording revealed that The Post misquoted Trump’s comments on the call, based on information provided by an 'anonymous' source," the Post said Thursday in a 129-word correction published atop the story.
"Trump did not tell the investigator to 'find the fraud' or say she would be 'a national hero' if she did so. Instead, Trump urged the investigator to scrutinize ballots in Fulton County, Ga., asserting she would find 'dishonesty' there. He also told her that she had 'the most important job in the country right now.'" - per The Hill
The deceitful media, 60 Minutes, WaPo and the man you admire for his courage have lied to you people, can you see this?
Thank you Brad
This aged well
Mr. Raffensperger and Mr. Sterling defended Georgians votes like lions. They are our heroes 🤗🤗🤗🤩🤩🤩
I concur☺💙🇺🇸
They are straight kings and patriots. Thank you for defending Lady Liberty gentleman. I appreciate the both of you.☺💙🇺🇸
Yes!
Lock him up
👍 YES...THEY DID THAT, BUT IT WAS SAD THAT ONE HAS TO BREAK DOWN THE GEORGIA VOTING PROCESS TO SO-CALLED ADULTS LIKE IT WAS THEIR FIRST DAY IN PRE-SCHOOL ALL OVER AGAIN...1+1=2...NOT WHATEVER YOU WANT IT TO BE, CUZ YOU SAID SO...SMH...
I love how he says it’s “only 11000” votes. It shows how little he cares for the individual American. Every single vote is a voice of a citizen.
That struck me wrong too, what is 11k to trump? It also felt wrong when he said, "it is what is", when talking about the deaths due to covid. CLASSLESS AND NO MORALS
Dawn Fletcher people die every day from natural causes sickness and then covid hits you don’t hear anything about the flu and it’s flu season doesn’t that tell you something. It tells me people with the flu or just any sickness there saying it’s covid to make it sound worse than it actually is.
Exactly!!!💯
It's all numbers to him 😪
Listen to the full tape
Way to go Brad Raffensperger and Gabriel Sterling for standing up against Dump
I’m a leftist and it takes a lot for a republican to gain my respect, much less a Trump voting Republican, but Raffensenberger’s done it. Dude might’ve single handedly saved democracy.
YUP!!!!!!!!
Secretary Raffensperger and Mr Sterling.... you are HEROES and true Patriots!! Thank you! God bless you both!!
Honestly, they did their job. They weren't crooks.
@@agnesi8690 Too many others have caved under the pressure... they, had they been lesser men, could have, as well... Even at risk of harm to themselves and their families, they did the right thing... to me, that is the definition of heroism.
Thank you for your service
I cannot overstate how refreshing it is to see someone stand up for truth and not give in to the bullying.
President Biden should give Brad Raffensperger the Presidential Medal of Freedom. He’s an American hero and a man of great integrity, you know, qualities you want your president to have. Unfortunately, we had a narcissistic wannabe fascist dictator who would rule for the remainder of his life as a crime boss.
The telephone call has been edited to suit the narrative of the cowards . Unfortunately for them , the whole thing will be rolled out in court. Then , you will see that Trump was wondering how those votes that appeared to be his , had suddenly vanished.
If Trump doesn’t go to prison, then there’s no justice in the United States
Oh please?
You have a Rino Republican.
That's why it's so Refreshing.
They was No five people killed at the Jan.6th Capital riot!
Did anyone see Trump put a gun to these grown men's head telling them Togo to the Capital and shoot up.
No? No they did not!

Mm
Brad Raffensperger is the type of person we need in public office. God bless that man!

Thank you
Raffenburger is a good and brave man. May God bless him.
When he said that arguing against Trump's delusions "is like having a shovel in your hand and trying to empty the ocean" -- best imagery I've ever heard and to me it fully captures the madness of the past 4 years.
Amen 🙏
This year has brought out the poet in a lot of us.
that's the best imagery you have ever heard? lol

Listening to this made me physically sick. How on earth does he keep track of ALL of the lies he tells?
My brother and I picked out a blouse for my Mom as a holiday gift and I had a hard time concealing it under my bed all wrapped up in ribbons with the card. Having to remember LIES day after day,how does he do that?

What I like the most about this is Brad and Gabriel are straight forward and unequivocal in their statements. Much respect.
What I like best is that they both wanted Trump to win, they both voted for him and they both wanted him to win.
But I can't understand why he is allowed to run again
I hope people take note that both Raffesnperger and Sterling voted for and supported Trump and are debunking Trump's voter fraud claims. Let that sink in.
You can investigate all you want, but they don't own and have access to the code and probably don't fully understand the architecture of the comms/ backup system. Sure Trump is out there sometimes, but look at the other countries that use similar systems, look at who owns the companies behind the systems. Also they basically let them walk up to the capital, so what's that about?

Trump's comments about Freeman will come back to haunt him.
“Really revealed to us his character” . . . He’d revealed it long before this conversation (hundreds of times)
^ I also side eyed that.
When he said “Mexicans are rapist, murders and drug dealers” that was it for me.
I know it gets swept under the giant Trump tower of controversies but he shouldve realistically been done with "grab em by the p$$%" or "I like people that didn't get captured".
They used Trump. They just aren't willing to pull the trigger themselves. Republicans were willing to throw their values away, just not their souls.

Bigfoot? Feet job?9.5 inches? Hunter Biden?
I had the exact same thought way before the capitol incident...
And according to Trumps first wife he studied and loved this speaches. They fascinated him. Seeing him follow the same pattern in his speaches.
Ruby Friedman ,she should be able to sue individual 1 for defamation of character $
@michael anderson, Amen. He put Ms. Freeman in danger with a lie and these same GA officials have done nothing to defend her. Now they want to play the victim.

Yes, let her sue I like to see that. Discovery will be interesting.
Meanwhile, four months later....................... LOL, Michael Anderson.
You know that's true! He just totally single her out! And her life is being threatening! This man will stop at nothing! TOTAL TRASH! I just hope she sees her lawyer and take every cent that is coming to her.
Brad is a damn hero for not acquiescing to threats of a corrupt US president. That took massive balls.
They tried being polite, instead of telling Trump point blank that if he truly believed what he was saying, he had to be stark raving mad.
The level of self-incrimination on this call is almost cartoonish.
@Brooke Baldvag
@Çerastes Sure... he was only REQUESTING them to commit unlawful acts by "finding" another 11k+ votes, LMFAO.
@Çerastes Be sure and keep telling yourself that. JUST a coincidence that "11,780" ballots were "fake", LMFAO.
Feel free to cry and scream your little head off about "FAKE NEWS" when the facts don't align with your beliefs. No matter what BS you say, Trump is gone in 8 days and will never EVER be coming back... So KEEP CRYING. 🤣🤣🤣
@Çerastes I REALLY HOPE Trump does run once again. That would be the gift that keeps on giving to Democrats!
Now be a good little brainwashed sheep and KEEP CRYING. 🤣🤣🤣
@Çerastes I love how you think no lawsuit means Trump did "nothing wrong", meanwhile you have ZERO ANSWERS WHATSOEVER for Trump specifically asking for the 11,780 specific votes to be "FOUND". You people are truly pathetic, but keep drinking that COOLAID if it helps you feel better!
Democrats would like to thank Trump sincerely for costing Republicans the House, Senate, AND Presidency... He finally "made America great again"! ENJOY THE NEXT 4 YEARS!!!!!!!!!
Great job to all the Georgia official honesty is the best policy in life.
When you always tell the truth you are free
I admire both authorities for their integrity.
Ruby should sue the heck out of Trump for defaming her.
I agree - also the Georgians should sue Rudy G and make sure he is disbarred for lying about what happened in the voting. Out and out lied - showed a clip of the video while he had the whole video which showed the truth. This man should not only be sue and disbarred but charged with inciting violence and sent to jail.

@@richardkjelsrud242 Yeah, real integrity there. Recording a phone call without the other party knowing about it or giving their consent. Real integrity with a capital I. The only problem is Trump didn't commit a crime by making a phone call and asking the man to do his job by throwing out all the illegal votes -- and there were hundreds of thousands of them in Georgia. All for Biden.
It is so sad that neither one of them are there to back Trump up when he is now finding himself in the most desperate situation. Such as his lovely wife Melania, daughter Evanka, Eric Trump, Don junior, and Jerd Kushner, kellyanne Conway. Where are they now? What happened to them?
Is Donald Trump going behind bars all by himself?
Secretary Brad Raffensperger and D A Willis deserve a honor of achievement
Good on the Georgia official for resisting. He’s the kind of person we should honor, not Trump and his pals.

9:12 What a perfect prediction of what was to happen just weeks later...
Here in Nigeria, in spite of all that has gone on in US this past months, people actually cite Raffensperger and Sterling as evidence of the strength of the Institutions of govt in America. Officials that will not bend in their will to defend the constitution in the face of attacks from their own party leader. These guys were effectively the thin line between democracy and tyranny. Deserve immense praise. My only question is why and how they found themselves voting for Trump.
Because they still agree with everything he's saying. They just don't like that he's saying the quiet parts out loud. Case in point: He spearheaded the purging of thousands of people in the Atlanta area (and who just happened to be part of the black community in Atlanta) from the voter rolls.

@@Obetv01 it's still a moral failure of both of these men. And shows that their character isn't as great as some people comment. They're still racist and bigoted nepotists.
@@GoTfan-eb8tk
Wasn't that the governor who did the purges? Raffensberger and his family became RepubliKKKlan targets after he stood his ground for a fair election. If he had the decency to do that, why would he try to suppress votes. Besides, it's the legislatures who make those kinds of decisions.
@@lindamaddox828 The Secretary of State in each US state oversees everything related to elections, including vter rolls.
He has no problem with the standard awfulness of the Republican Party. he just doesn't like that Trump isn't quiet about it.
I'm so proud of the Georgia officials they should be rewarded with Presidential medal of Freedom
Think about how that action saved Democracy History made in that action...WAY TO GO GEORGIA! 🇺🇸
Raffensperger's integrity in the face of all this pressure from his own side definitely merits the Presidential Merit of Freedom; much more so than Limbaugh. Still can't wrap my head around that waste of a medal...
@@clintleffingwell8129 Raffensperger unfortunately, is now talking differently since they took away the decision to call the shots from him. I am disappointed after once being so proud of him.
I feel bad for ruby friedman and the others counting the votes in georgia. They’re actually getting death threats and violence towards them all because of trumps lie and his followers. Smh .
@UCWKKa0ZzIReQY33EBdj2QDg keep dreaming . Its not happening. Trump lost deal with it. Isn’t that what you said back in 2016? Trump won! Cry some more! How ironic since now that hes lost you’re the one crying 😢.
Can someone tell me - just in VERY plain words - why there are still people sympathizing and supporting Trump after this? I mean, come on.
Because they're in a cult.
@@cardinalRG Yeah, the more I am watching Trump and his followers the more I agree to your comment.
Because you can't fix stupid!
Ms Freemen need to file a lawsuit against trump if she haven’t already.
It's in his blood to lie he cannot say the truth even if it killed him
Biden right LOL
😀 U dey too much
GIVE ME A BREAK
@@LDuke-pc7kq No I would say Trump. His lies have been fact checked. Thousands of them
@@unapologeticallyBlack414 How does it feel knowing you got fooled by the left wing media, 60 Minutes, Washington Post, and the secretary of state in Georgia, who happens to be REPUBLICAN?
All of this occurred in Georgia just before the run-offs elections in Georgia on January 5th. Can you not see the deception? They did this to influence the voters in Georgia. I wonder just who exactly "leaked" this January 2nd phone call? Can you use logic? Think hard about this!
"We have learned that the call on January 2nd was not Trump's first attempt. Sources tell us that last month, Trump himself phoned one of Georgia's Secretary of State's investigators. A person briefed on the call said Trump told the investigator they would *be a national hero if they found evidence of fraud." It is so convenient that January 3rd or 4th was when the phone call with the Governor and Trump was released... This particular audio recording just so happens to have Trump saying "I need only 11, 780 votes. So, what are we going to do here, folks? Fellas, I need 11,000 votes. Give me a break" What's even MORE CONVENIENT is that an "anonymous source" that was "briefed" on the phone call with the Georgia's Sec. of State's staff (the election's investigator) told WaPo that Trump told the investigator "Find the fraud" and that "You will be a National Hero if you find the fraud." * They reported "I don't think there is a recording of this conversation" followed by the audio recording being found in the INVESTIGATOR'S TRASH FOLDER!? MONTHS after when the phone call was made in December. They claimed that "it doesn't appear there is any recording of this phone call" was crap from the beginning. EVERY call TO AND FROM the PRESIDENT is RECORDED!
"The Washington Post has added a lengthy correction to a bombshell report from early January that had said then-President Trump told Georgia's top elections investigator during a phone call to "find the fraud" and that they would be "a national hero" if they did so.
Two months after publication of this story, the Georgia secretary of state released an audio recording of President Donald Trump’s December phone call with the state’s top elections investigator. The recording revealed that The Post misquoted Trump’s comments on the call, based on information provided by an 'anonymous' source," the Post said Thursday in a 129-word correction published atop the story.
"Trump did not tell the investigator to 'find the fraud' or say she would be 'a national hero' if she did so. Instead, Trump urged the investigator to scrutinize ballots in Fulton County, Ga., asserting she would find 'dishonesty' there. He also told her that she had 'the most important job in the country right now.'" - per The Hill
The deceitful media, 60 Minutes, WaPo and the man you admire for his courage have lied to you people, can you see this? (I copied and paste this comment in my reply to someone in the comment)
“It’s like holding a shovel, trying to empty the ocean” that’s what it’s like trying to make these idiots face reality smh
They are not idiots... they are criminals acting like idiots. CRIMINAL FIRST.
That's why I'm a troll.
The thing i find is that most to everyone doesnt call trumps statements by what they are... a lie. They go ahead and discuss what he says, they try to figure out what he meant. Instead of just say he is lying. Why go about discussing lies that already have been debunked.
Very true 💯💯
Trying to empty the ocean using a shovel? It really depends on the ocean though... 🤣😂
Even though I'm a Democrat I have the utmost respect for Brad and Gabriel Thanks for Standing up
I’m Not republican but I would still vote for you Brad.. and I did !!!
2? Like 2,000?.. no like 2, ✌️ 1,2 😂🤦🏻♂️
And they were for trump. Trumptards
He's NOT "Delusional"! He knows he's ALWAYS being recorded and he ALWAYS uses "double speak". Like a mobster asking you if you can "Take care of someone" for them. They're not asking you to look out for their best interests. 🤦♂️
You are absolutely right. This is how he has always operated.
We love you and appreciate you Mr. Raffensperger for standing up through one of the worst cases I have ever heard of gaslighting and intimidating. You are a gentle giant and the State of GA needs you. I listened to the full call last night and I apologize that I did not listen to it sooner. God Bless You, Sir. Thank you for your public service.
Brad Russenberger an honest decent man
Can this people go to jail🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️ for making all this mess in the 🇺🇸
Well said.... I really hope they are!
@Harley Davidson Motors yes you are right about that.. it was wrong about what they did. But this is different all this people are mad just because Trump lost thats so ridiculous to me.
I’m sooooo sick of this clowns behavior. He needs and deserves to go to jail. ANYONE who is STILL sticking up for the man-baby either knows they are wrong, and doesn’t care, or they’re delusional
And will likely get it from the prosecutors of those counties. His Senate buddies can't save him from that!
Brad Raffensperger is a hero in my book for not cowardly giving in to trumps lies. That is someone I would vote for. Thank you Mr. Raffensperger.
That’s why Trump needs to be put in jail he lies, lies , and lies
wouldnt want to play the phone call from start to finish and not chop it to pieces?
Brad s honesty and dignity brought me to tears. Thanks God that in the middle of the chaos we still have a man like Brad to count on . Brad you are my biggest hero of all time. His will protect you and your loved ones. My respect and a billion thanks to you for standing up for our country when it need you the most. 🐥🐥🐥🐥🐥🐥
I too was moved to tears listening to this Republican set the record straight. (I am a liberal Democrat.)
“People need to go back and read their history books.” “To be noble people of high character and be patriotic and love our country.”
That would be nice. Ok let's do it.
History books are written by victors.
This countries own history is at stake. Since the more lies and crooked congressmen that are ruining our country we wont have a history book .

@Brooke Baldvag @Jim Wheeler I'm curious of your source and the motivations for reference to this.
This guy is a liar, out to advance his career.
@Brooke Baldvag Your excitement about fondling young boys is not relevant to the topic on hand.

You can’t lie to a math problem, math is math.
But you can control who sees the answers in the first place
@@ang6872 I don’t think you know how math works. You can hide the answer all you want but, if it doesn’t match the original math problem, it doesn’t work. If They say A+B = C+D, then C+D has to = A+B. No one can hide a math answer if you have the math problem. If you show the math problem, anyone can find the answer ( if they know how to do math).
@@bosnianlady10 What if you indoctrinate people into believing your answer regardless censoring those who don’t and creating an atmosphere of fear that whatever you say is gospel. There is always facts and truth but in fascism those facts begin to dwindle in meaning as people will believe lies over whatever fact you present
@@bosnianlady10 I know 1+1=2 but if I am indoctrinated to the point where my sense of reality and truth is warped then 1+1 can easily be 3
You are so right! Thank you! So tell me; how did Trump end up with 72 and some million votes and leave 67.5 million left for the other candidate but yet won over 80 million? Remember these are the numbers for LEGALLY REGISTERED VOTES. Check my math please.
"Noble people of high character..." WOW!
Bless this man!
