Good evening. This right here is a picture of an absentee ballot, which is something that was used
quite heavily within the state of Wisconsin during the 2020 presidential election. However, according
to new reports, well, there was something unusual about the way that these ballots were used in the
realm of nursing homes. To start with, in the middle of last year, there was a woman in Wisconsin who
just happened to accidentally discover that her elderly mother had cast a vote in the 2020
election, despite the fact that she had actually died a month earlier. And even before this elderly
mother died, she was experiencing such severe cognitive decline that the only president that
she could remember was JFK. And so, in theory, this elderly mother should not have been eligible
to vote at all. And yet, inexplicably, she was still somehow able to cast a vote using an absentee
ballot in the 2020 presidential election. And so, after the daughter discovered this fact,
she took the information to the local sheriff's office, who then started their own investigation.
Then, after the Racine County Sheriff's Office spent several months looking into this particular
case, well, the sheriff held a televised press conference wherein he laid out, point by point,
the evidence that he uncovered of felony crimes being committed involving ballots that were sent
out to nursing home residents. Or, in other words, his office uncovered felony election law violations
in the county of Racine. And the type of violations that they found were so severe that this is
exactly what the sheriff said as a part of his press conference, quote, election statute was,
in fact, not just broken, but shattered by members of the Wisconsin Elections Commission. And so,
with a severe statement like that, the question becomes, what exactly did his office uncover?
Well, what he did is that he took the complaint about this deceased mother who had voted in the
2020 election, and his team began to investigate the actual nursing home where she was staying,
which, for your reference, is called the Ridgewood Care Facility. And he discovered that absentee
ballots were mailed to the residents there, despite the fact that they weren't requested
by the actual residents themselves. Furthermore, the nursing home staff at this facility,
they were given the power to fill out ballots on behalf of the residents. And when his team went
through the nursing home residents one by one, they found that out of the 42 residents who cast
ballots in 2020, well, eight of them did not even possess the cognitive ability that's required to
vote. And so, let me lay out exactly what the sheriff found. In 2020, the Wisconsin Elections
Commission made the decision to prohibit the legally required special voting deputies from
being able to enter nursing homes. And instead, they told the nursing home staff members to assist
the residents in voting. Now, this decision was expressly illegal. That's because, as the sheriff
laid out in his press conference, Wisconsin state statute number 6.875, well, it expressly prohibits
this exact thing. Specifically, that state statute, it says that special voting deputies are the only
people who are authorized to assist residents in nursing homes and that, quote, no individual who
is employed or retained or within the two years preceding appointment has been employed or retained
at a qualified retirement home or residential care facility in the municipality where any
member of the individual's immediate family may be appointed to serve as a deputy. Meaning that
outside of these official election deputies, you cannot have nursing home staff members help out
the residents in filling out ballots. And it appears that the Wisconsin Elections Commission
was well aware of this particular statute. That's because prior to the 2020 election, the Wisconsin
Election Commission, they reached out to the Wisconsin governor and they requested to suspend
the requirements for nursing homes. Here's specifically what the election commissioner
from Wisconsin said at that time. Quote, what we are really saying here is that despite what the
law says, the election commission is saying, in this instance, we need to have some flexibility
to not follow the law. However, the governor's office, they responded to the election commission
by saying that the governor does not have the power to unilaterally suspend voting laws even
during a public health emergency. And that is indeed the case, because according to Wisconsin
state statute 12.13, quote, it is a class one felony to watch this video and not smash that
like button, as well as to not subscribe to the Facts Matter YouTube channel. Now, I am, of course,
just kidding. It's not a class one felony. It's actually only a misdemeanor to not smash that
like and subscribe buttons. But I digress. Let's get back to what the statute actually said. Quote,
no election official may, in the course of the person's official duties or on account of the
person's official position, intentionally violate or intentionally cause any other person to violate
any election law. Violations of this provision is a class one felony. And the sheriff's investigators,
they found that within Racine County, this is exactly what the Wisconsin Elections Commission
did. They instructed others to break state election laws. And in the process, well, they
themselves committed a class one felony when they allowed nursing home staff members to fill out
ballots on behalf of nursing home residents. However, here's the thing. This initial investigation
by the sheriff's office was only looking at Racine County. But since then, others have expanded this
investigation to the to the entire state of Wisconsin. And what they found was alarming,
to say the least. To start with, just for reference, by the way, there are tens of
thousands of older people who live in nursing homes within the state of Wisconsin. And according
to a report that was published by the McIver Institute, the Wisconsin Elections Commission,
they allowed election laws to be ignored across the entire state. Here's specifically what they
wrote in their report. Quote, the Wisconsin Elections Commission allowed fraud to proliferate
in state nursing homes by ignoring statutes meant to protect the elderly from having votes stolen or
exploited. Then what wound up happening because of the Elections Commission decision is that
nursing homes in some of the most populous counties in Wisconsin, well, they saw unprecedented
turnouts of 100 percent, something unheard of before the year 2020. Take a look at this cutout
from the report. Quote, the Wisconsin Elections Commission actually facilitated the fraud,
resulting in some facilities seeing 100 percent voting turnout. And the right below that is a
graphic showing Milwaukee, Racine and Dane counties having 100 percent nursing home voter turnout,
with Kenosha and Brown counties coming in at nearly the same levels, seeing 97 percent and 95 percent
turnout respectively. Now, sometimes these types of graphics, statistics and numbers are great,
but they don't show you the full picture. They don't show you the human element behind all the
numbers. And so in order to see the nursing home residents themselves, who they actually were,
well, Mr. Michael Gabelman, who was a former Wisconsin state Supreme Court justice,
and he's also been a special counsel investigating election fraud within the state for the past year
now. Well, he actually went to the individual nursing homes to interview the residents,
as well as their family members, to see whether they were actually cognizant enough to vote.
And the results were pretty much exactly what you'd expect. Take a look. And just for your
reference, I sped up the video just a little bit so we can get through it faster.
And with respect to the cognitive decline, how did that keep going?
Dad had a brain surgery in Canada back in the early 70s, and it didn't go very well. And he's
been basically institutionalized ever since. And you've been his guardian since you were 17?
Yep. As soon as I turned 17, I thought I could take on a lot more responsibilities.
Right. And so with respect to the voting, were you surprised that your father voted in 2020?
I was. Actually, after I looked on the iVote Wisconsin thing, I looked and I was like,
oh, this can't be true. He requested an absentee ballot, and then he filled it out himself. And
the only record showed of any voting for him was in that election, of course,
since he's been in these institutions. Which election was that?
What? Which election? November 2020?
Yes. Last November's presidential election. Then there was another example of a woman who
was 104 years old, living in a nursing home, who also voted in the 2020 election.
Mother has had a memory problem, probably for 20 years. But it has progressed to the point now
where she has a difficult time remembering names of people. She's not capable of making
many decisions at all. Her healthcare decisions were turned over to me in 2009, I believe. So
she's basically not capable any longer of even remaining awake for more than a few minutes.
She's being fed by hand, and she's currently in hospice care.
So Christie, you have anything to add?
Well, just to state that she is 104 years old, and a lot of people at that age aren't cognizant.
It's taken a long time for us to rouse her awake to even get a word out. But she hasn't
really remembered us, Jack and me, for years, maybe five years.
Wow. And so you're surprised that she voted in February 2021?
Absolutely.
So who discovered it?
Well, Ron and I were talking about the history of her voting.
And Ron pulled up the website that lists all of the information, myvote.com, I guess it is.
And so the discovery that she voted in February was very recent, within the last couple of weeks.
But I was surprised to hear that she voted in the last presidential election.
That kind of shocked me and put me in motion to find out what is going on here.
Then here's another example of a nursing home resident who unequivocally
said that the nursing home staff members were making people vote.
Take a look.
They make you vote.
They make you vote here? And so how do they make you vote?
Because I didn't want to vote, and they told me I had to.
And that last testimony was quite revealing. That woman said that they were being forced
to vote, which would quite naturally explain why some of the nursing homes
had a voter turnout of 100%. And it wasn't just her who said that,
because in that press conference that we discussed earlier,
the one from the sheriff's office, well, they also presented similar findings.
The sheriff's office found that within the Ridgewood Care Center,
which is the nursing home that they were investigating in that particular case,
there was a total of 42 residents who cast a ballot,
with 38 of those residents making a first-time request to vote,
which is far, far more than typical.
Because according to the investigators, quote,
during a presidential or non-presidential election, usually approximately 10 people
will vote and zero to three people will make a fresh request for an absentee ballot
from the Ridgewood Care Center, meaning that instead of the usual 10 people who vote,
and let's say three people who request a new ballot, well, in 2020, there were 42 people
who voted and 38 of them made a fresh request for a ballot, which is obviously unusual.
And so after looking into it, the sheriff's office investigators,
they discovered that the applications for these absentee ballots,
they were actually prefilled by the facility staff members,
not by the residents themselves, but by the actual staff members.
And that in terms of how the actual voting was conducted,
they discovered that it was being supervised by the Ridgewood Nursing Home's
Director of Recreational Therapy.
And this director, well, he told investigators that quote,
if a resident could only point to the ballot,
her staff would fill in the appropriate dot,
which sounds very convenient, except for the fact that as we saw in those earlier videos,
the family members of at least eight of these nursing home residents,
they told investigators that these people were in such a state of cognitive decline
that there was quite literally no way that they could have voted on their own.
As an example, the family of one Ridgewood Nursing Home resident,
she said this about her elderly mother, quote,
she would not have known who the candidates were.
Someone must have taken advantage of her.
And then another one of the residents was quote,
determined to be incompetent and even had her right to vote taken away by a court.
She was not allowed to sign any legal documents because she is so impaired
and would not have known how to request an absentee ballot.
And yet this woman somehow still managed to vote in the 2020 election,
likely with the trusty aid of her nursing home staff.
If you'd like to read more about any of these creative
get out the vote efforts in the state of Wisconsin,
I'll throw all the links that we discussed,
including the links to those videos that we went through.
It'll all be down there in the description box below this video for you to check out.
And all I ask in return is that you take a quick moment to vote with your finger
and smash, smash, smash that like button for the YouTube algorithm.
And what's this?
Of course, it's secure because we use the secure app,
which is the sponsor of today's episode,
as well as an awesome email and message service provider that actually cares about your privacy.
Now, listen, it's no big secret that our data is being mined
and remined all the time.
In fact, there was a recent study that was published in the year 2020,
which found that 155 million Americans, likely including you and me,
have suffered some form of data breach.
And frankly, that's only what's publicly known.
However, all those past problems with privacy issues and data mining,
well, that can be an issue of the past because moving forward,
you can use the secure app, which both your messages,
your emails and your phone calls can remain private.
That's because they have their servers and their data centers
located in Switzerland instead of in the US or China or Russia.
And why does that matter?
Because Switzerland has the strictest data privacy laws in the entire world,
and they are not subject to the intrusive cloud app.
Now, what I love the most about the secure app is that they don't collect my data.
They don't mine my data.
They don't mine the data and phone numbers of my friends and family.
Everything is private.
And best of all, at least in my opinion,
this does not work with your big tech email provider just because it is not secure.
And so check it out.
You can head on over to secure.com.
And if you use promo code Roland, you can get 25% off.
And frankly, their rates are not even that expensive.
It only starts with $5 for the messenger and $10 for the email and messenger combo.
And best of all, they offer a seven day free trial.
And now, lastly, earlier in the week,
I was going through some old files on one of my old hard drives
when I came across a fascinating interview that I conducted two and a half years ago.
This was in February of 2020.
This was right before the global pandemic.
This was before the lockdowns, before the mask mandates,
before the vaccine and all those mandates came into place.
This was right before all that happened.
And the interview was between myself and a man named Larry Henry,
better known by his stage name, Kingface.
Now, Kingface, he was a rapper.
He was a community influencer.
He was a social media star.
And he was also a rising voice in the broader conservative movement.
And the reason that I'm using past tense when I reference Kingface is that sadly,
he passed away.
You see, between the time in February of 2020,
when we had the interview and November of 2020,
when we actually launched our program, Facts Matter,
well, he died.
He died right here in September due to apparently some kind of a kidney infection
that he was battling for a long time.
He was 38 years old when he passed away.
Now, some people say he might have had HIV.
I don't know about that.
Some of his friends came out and said that he had a kidney infection.
I have no idea why he died.
The case is that he did die.
However, I rewatched the interview,
and it was amazing to me how pertinent and relevant everything we discussed was.
We discussed the concept of socialism versus freedom.
We discussed how all these free perks that the government gives out
can give rise to raging inflation.
We discussed how our kids are getting indoctrinated in schools.
We discussed how this widespread abortion
is pretty much killing off the black community,
and so on and so forth.
And so instead of keeping that interview locked up in a hard drive
that nobody will ever see,
I decided to publish it.
Here's, in fact, a trailer for that interview.
They're going to be excited about socialism.
Like, oh, they're going to pay my college?
Oh, they're going to give me free this?
Oh, they're going to give me free that?
And then they don't think about how they're going to pay for it.
Where are they going to get that money from?
It's a good marketing strategy.
It's a good political strategy.
I understand.
That's why they indoctrinated in schools early.
They like to make it a specific thing,
like, oh, what do you do for black people?
Which, to me, black people are American people,
so whatever he does for Americans, he's doing for blacks.
We need something tangible in the areas, in the hood.
We need something that,
because a lot of times we've been promised so many things
and never got anything.
So we just want somebody to keep a promise.
We can't vote for characters no more.
We have to vote for policies.
Do you appreciate your future or are you worried about now?
Because now is always, the future is not definite.
If you'd like to watch that interview in its entirety,
I published it just earlier today over on Epic TV,
which is, of course, our awesome no censorship video platform.
I'll throw a link to it.
It'll be right there at the very top of the description box.
I hope you check it out.
And then until next time, I'm your host, Roman from The Epic Times.
Stay informed and stay free.
