Welcome to this special episode of the John Henry Weston Show, where we're going to be
00:00:03.600
talking about what is going on on January 6th, that huge day which Trump has called
00:00:07.860
a massive rally for, which seems to be the last hope for the election of Donald Trump
00:00:15.500
We're going to speak with lawyer and vice president of LifeSite News,
00:00:30.000
Let's begin, as we always do, with the sign of the cross.
00:00:45.800
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
00:00:54.260
We are talking about something that is really on most people's minds, especially
00:00:59.300
Americans who care about election integrity, especially Americans who are just flabbergasted
00:01:04.860
by what's been going on in the media, hiding the truth of this election, hiding what's been
00:01:09.780
going on, and really the millions of Americans who are going to be disenfranchised, that the
00:01:15.720
tens of millions of Americans who are going to be disenfranchised by what is going on.
00:01:24.380
Well, January 6th is pretty much the last day for the political process to come to grips
00:01:35.120
And what happens on January 6th is the Electoral College votes are officially counted and received
00:01:45.060
And basically this whole operation, the whole procedure that's happening on the 6th is headed
00:01:53.740
It's presided by the vice president, who is the head of the Senate.
00:01:59.740
So you have both the House of Representatives and the Senate, and they will be officially
00:02:05.880
forwarding the recommendations of the states and the Electoral College votes, which is how
00:02:15.440
And so the interesting thing about the 6th is that there is a process to contest the results
00:02:22.600
And there have been now, I think, over 20 representatives and potentially a couple of U.S.
00:02:29.220
senators that have said that they intend to object to those results.
00:02:33.500
So one might think Senator Cruz, because there are many House reps who are going to contest
00:02:39.120
We've seen that in the news over and over again.
00:02:47.220
The one senator who has publicly stated that he is considering it is the newly elected senator
00:02:59.680
And so Senator-elect, because actually he's sworn in on January 3rd.
00:03:03.960
So it would be one of his first acts would be to defy the Senate Majority Leader, Mitch
00:03:09.060
McConnell, who's publicly stated that he doesn't want any shenanigans.
00:03:11.940
He doesn't want to contest the election at all.
00:03:14.620
And so this is really a showdown between the people who are upset at what happened on the
00:03:22.160
3rd and really the loyal Trump followers and Trump himself, who's still maintaining that
00:03:28.320
the election was fraudulent, and then the establishment.
00:03:33.060
Now, anybody who's been following at LifeSite News, and I encourage people to do that because
00:03:37.120
just to see the amount of evidence of voter fraud that has gone on, that is right there,
00:03:46.880
Hundreds of Americans have signed affidavits testifying to their witnessing of electoral
00:03:54.700
And yet the media keeps trumpeting this nonsense about, oh, there's no evidence, no evidence.
00:03:59.560
And the real collusion, right, is not with Russia, but it's really big tech and what
00:04:06.280
they have done to throw their incredible technological prowess and the gatekeeper status that they've
00:04:13.340
earned behind discrediting the president, first of all, censoring any outlets that disagreed
00:04:21.380
with their narrative, like LifeSite News, and then even now threatening deplatforming if anybody
00:04:32.940
I don't know if we'll be able to put this video on YouTube.
00:04:36.060
I hope that we can, but we'll have to think about that.
00:04:40.540
And really, this is a pivotal moment for the United States.
00:04:44.460
And no matter what happens, it's going to be a very difficult process to pull off because
00:04:49.180
just to give you an overview of what will actually happen on the 6th is they will start to count
00:04:55.980
You have to have at least one congressman from the House and one congressman from the Senate
00:05:04.560
And then the Congress would go into a joint session meeting a maximum of two hours, and
00:05:11.260
they would have to have a majority of both houses to vote to exclude the contested electoral
00:05:21.720
And so that's very difficult because the House is still under the majority rule of the Democrats
00:05:28.600
And then we know that in the Senate as well, it's very close.
00:05:31.180
And a lot of senators like Senator Mitt Romney, a prominent rhino, and probably a lot of other
00:05:40.620
And so it's definitely an uphill battle, but at least it's a chance for these grievances
00:05:45.680
Because the big lie, I think, is that all of these concerns have been aired and discredited,
00:05:55.460
What the courts have done in almost all of these cases is said they don't want to get involved.
00:05:59.480
And so what we're left with is a political machine on the left that had no problems pulling
00:06:06.480
every trick in the book, and then the courts that decided to simply abscond and not get
00:06:12.820
So really, the only challenge here is a political challenge.
00:06:16.700
So hugely important now, because that way, with these votes, I understand that they'll be on
00:06:28.060
This is about the next two years and the next four years, and really knowing who is
00:06:33.200
here to represent the people and who is in politics, who is an elected official that
00:06:42.640
And I think one supremely important aspect of this is what we can do.
00:06:49.360
Americans need to act, and they need to act now.
00:06:52.200
Yes, it's Christmas time, and yes, normally we're laid back.
00:06:55.260
But at this point, for the sake of the future of American democracy, Americans need to act.
00:07:01.460
And there is a great way for them to do that, if you can explain it.
00:07:07.280
Well, LifeSite News has found another way to be of service to our readers.
00:07:11.860
And we have created a tool that where people are able to very quickly find their elected
00:07:19.080
representatives, just a click of a button, they enter their zip code, their address, and
00:07:23.340
immediately they'll get the ability to contact their legislators via Twitter, via email, and
00:07:32.860
And so all of that information will populate, and you can reach out to your individual legislators
00:07:38.340
to tell them that you want to make sure that the American election integrity is preserved.
00:07:43.560
And so that's something that we have on the website.
00:07:45.960
You can find it on an article that we wrote on what's happening on the 6th.
00:07:53.500
And it's very easy, and it's very important that these congressmen know that the people
00:08:00.640
And it's an amazing tool because it enables people, with the click of one button, they
00:08:05.420
go in and enter their message, and with one button, they get to all these different channels.
00:08:09.280
You're contacting your senator, your congressman on their own Twitter feed, on their Facebook
00:08:13.440
feed, and also directly, and if you so wish, the phone number's there for them to call as
00:08:17.920
And I think we should probably stress that phone number, phoning them, is probably one of the
00:08:25.440
Right, because it takes up the time of their office.
00:08:27.720
It's, you know, politics is the art of getting reelected.
00:08:31.500
And so they know that if enough people want them to do something, and they don't do it,
00:08:35.940
and they side with the establishment, and it's politics as usual, that's going to hurt
00:08:40.040
And so I think it's incredibly important for people to make their voices heard, and to
00:08:45.060
really stand in the way of this clear election interference by big tech, by the establishment.
00:08:52.760
And, you know, those testimonies, heart-wrenching testimonies of hundreds of people, those need
00:09:04.140
And the only way to do it is to go the political route, and to really, really demand from these
00:09:09.860
legislators that they stand up for their constituents.
00:09:15.840
You have this opportunity to reach out right now to your senators, to your congressmen,
00:09:21.460
to let them know where you stand and what you expect of them on January 6th.
00:09:25.240
They've got to do it for the future of America, and you've got to let them know.
00:09:28.900
This will only work with you letting them know.
00:09:30.860
And don't take it just to let yourself do this.
00:09:34.440
Let all of your friends, let all of your family who are so inclined, do this as well with
00:09:39.160
This is important for the future of American democracy.
00:09:42.740
And without, I mean, this is the same issue, the same kind of issue that Americans already
00:09:49.720
So this is as serious as it gets in terms of your own personal responsibility right now.
00:09:54.960
So really, while we're in this season, it's, yes, it's a season of hope and of religious
00:10:02.340
thanksgiving and of obviously worshiping our Lord as he entered the world to assist us to
00:10:11.180
But he also asks of us to take part in the cross.
00:10:16.900
It might be a cross even to talk to your own friends and family to get them to also do these
00:10:22.700
America needs you right now to do this work for the country.
00:10:28.160
And I would just add one thing, John Henry, that is that this isn't about partisan politics
00:10:35.220
This is really about the people because the weight of the Republican Party doesn't want
00:10:44.620
And you can tell that from what Mitch McConnell is saying.
00:10:47.120
This is really about the people standing up for the election integrity.
00:10:54.200
And so it's it's so incredibly important that we do make our voices heard.
00:10:59.340
This is the beginning of the ability to actually reclaim the democracy that I think was taken
00:11:08.620
Well, thank you so very much, Roberto, for coming on the show explaining this.
00:11:12.300
