Mitt Romney knocked unconscious, suffers black eye during fall
[NYP] Sen. Mitt Romney was knocked unconscious when he fell in Boston over the weekend, leaving him with "a lot of stitches" and a black eye.

"I took a fall. Knocked me unconscious. But I’m doing better," Romney told reporters on Capitol Hill Monday night.

The Utah Republican said he was visiting his grandchildren when he got injured.

With noticeable bruising under his right eye, Romney infused some humor into the situation.

"I went to CPAC, that was a problem," the Republican lawmaker joked, referring to the Conservative Political Action Conference that ended Sunday.

Romney was not invited to the marquee event after receiving backlash over his vote to impeach ex-President Donald Trump.

YEAP! this Blue Rhino "accidentally fell" was "knocked unconscious" and managed to get a "Black-eye" in the process.

Sure sounds more like he was Drunk at the least or a political enlightening like Harry R. (NV-BR) may have had done.
Or maybe he has some Brain issues at play?

4 Arrested in Texas on 150 Counts of Voter Fraud
[EpochTimes] Four people were arrested in Texas last month on 150 counts of voter fraud dating back to the 2018 Medina County Primary Election, according to reports.

The Texas attorney general’s Election Fraud Unit on Feb. 11 arrested Medina County Justice of the Peace Tomas Ramirez, and earlier detained Leonor Rivas Garza, Eva Ann Martinez and Mary Balderrama on election fraud allegations, News4SA reported.

According to a release from Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton’s office, the case involved allegations of vote harvesting at assisted living centers in Medina County in the 2018 Medina County Primary Election.

Ramirez faces one count of organized election fraud, one count of assisting voter voting ballot by mail, and 17 counts of unlawful possession of a ballot or ballot envelope, according to the news outlet.

Balderrama is charged with one count of organized election fraud, nine counts of illegal voting, two counts of unlawful possession of ballot or ballot envelope, one count of mail ballot application, two counts of unlawfully assisting voter voting by mail, two counts of tampering with government record, and eight counts of election fraud.

Garza faces a single count of organized election fraud, two counts of illegal voting, eight counts of unlawful possession of a ballot or ballot envelope, two counts of election fraud and four counts of fraudulent use of an absentee ballot by mail.

Martinez is charged with a single count of organized election fraud, nine counts of illegal voting, 28 counts of unlawful possession of ballot or ballot envelope, three counts of purportedly acting as an agent, five counts of tampering with government record, 14 counts of election fraud, and four counts of fraudulent mail ballot application, according to News4SA.

The Texas attorney general’s office didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment by The Epoch Times.

In a separate incident, Raquel Rodriguez, a Texas woman who bragged about being able to deliver thousands of votes for tens of thousands in cash was arrested in January on charges including election fraud and illegal voting.

Rodriguez was filmed during an undercover project by Project Veritas, an investigative journalism nonprofit. She was recorded in footage released last year that she could deliver "at least 5,000" votes "county-wide" for $55,000 in cash and that it would hire her "entire team." She acknowledged what she was discussing could land her prison time.

Based on the footage, Paxton, a Republican, opened an investigation. That probe led to the arrest, Paxton announced on Jan. 13.

Rodriguez faces a prison sentence of up to 20 years if convicted.

#1  Voter Fraud in Texas - Never- Just like It Never Snows in Texas

FOUND HERE .

#2  You have got to wonder about the tensions on her skull and brain, when the hair is pulled tightly back like this, a hair style she seems to prefer, from all the pictures of her on the interwebs.

#3  Is Texas the only state that arrests voter fraud participants?
Posted by: Blackbeard Barnsmell6454 || 03/02/2021 4:47 Comments || Top||

#4  ...I'm sorry, but no. All The Best People have assured me that there is no such thing as voter fraud, and if they get caught it's the Republicans. This is unpossible.

#5  Shucks, I thought this might be another bombshell.

#6 

Any bets that they'll get a WH pardon between Dec. 2024 and early Jan. 2025. Just after the national election is over and President Harris (2022-2024) has been handed her walking papers.

#7  until it is taken seriously it will continue

public beheading Saudi-style would be a good disincentive

#8  Ref #6: Pardoned long before she leaves office, possibly in the next month or so. Details in the fine print, or in the release of a 'Garza-Martinez-Balderrama best seller.

#9  note that it takes this long to reach the 'arrest and charge' stage

not just for vote fraud but for a lot of other crimes

#10  It’s a start. Now let’s see PA and MI follow suit.

Sorry about that if this made you laugh so hard you spilled your coffee... as if the Corruptocrats in Philthydelphia or Detoilet would ever investigate or charge any Dem

#11  You know 3 nammes but the other is a Judge/Justice of the Peace : An area Justice of the Peace has been arrested and accused of election fraud, along with three other people.

Medina County Justice of the Peace Tomas Ramirez was arrested Feb. 11 after a Bandera Grand Jury indicted him and three others two days prior.

Ramirez is facing one count of organized election fraud, one count of assisting voter voting ballot by mail and 17 counts of unlawful possession of a ballot or ballot envelope.

Leonor Rivas Garza, Eva Ann Martinez and Mary Balderrama were also arrested.

Dare go d'judge:




So this Ramirez Taco failed to uphold the laws he was sworn to protect... and stole the "will of over 150 people" .... 20 year sentence is too lenient, hanging them as an example would put an end of these shenanigans for a couple of generations....make an "example" of them...uphold the Republic.
