In my September 30 th column , I listed selected vote totals accepted as valid, and therefore counted as honest votes, by Louisiana Secretary of State Kyle Ardoin in the 2020 Biden-Trump presidential race. I used the actual vote totals listed on the secretary’s own website. I did not use imaginary or hypothetical figures, nor did I use figures produced by computer models or exit polls. I used the actual votes deemed worthy by Secretary Ardoin.
In certain precincts those vote totals were phenomenal. There were ratios such as 21 to 1, 35 to 1 and 58 to 1 in Biden’s favor. Surveying such landslide numbers, I noted that I “have no proof that a ratio of 58 to 1 was produced by shenanigans at the precinct level, but any objective observer would have to concede that these vote totals are quite remarkable.”
In response, the secretary’s deputy, John W. Tobler, defended his boss and sharply criticized my piece . Of course, Mr. Tobler did not claim that any of my numbers were wrong, nor could he, as I used the Secretary’s figures. Instead, he did two things: One, he listed the racial makeup of these precincts and suggested that race explained these extraordinary ratios. In addition, he attacked me personally by alleging that my article was not “designed to inform…(but) to inflame.”
Mr. Tobler, I do not accept your innuendo that race alone was the reason for the vote totals in these precincts. I do not believe that African American voters favored Democrat candidate Joe Biden over President Donald Trump by ratios of 21 to 1, 35 to 1, or 58 to 1. Instead, I suspect those ratios were the product of shenanigans, although to repeat, I cannot prove it. Nationwide, a reputable survey estimated that Trump attained 12% of the African American vote in the 2020 presidential race. Consequently, Biden won by an 8 to 1 margin, which is much different from 58 to 1.
Regarding Mr. Tobler’s accusation that my article was not “designed to inform…(but) to inflame,” I admit he is partially correct. My motivation was to both inform […]

Will America-First News Outlets Make it to 2023?
Things are looking grim for conservative and populist news sites.
There’s something happening behind the scenes at several popular conservative news outlets. 2021 was bad, but 2022 is proving to be disastrous for news sites that aren’t “playing ball” with the corporate media narrative. It’s being said that advertisers are cracking down, forcing some of the biggest ad networks like Google and Yahoo to pull their inventory from conservative outlets. This has had two major effects. First, it has cooled most conservative outlets from discussing “taboo” topics like Pandemic Panic Theater, voter fraud, or The Great Reset. Second, it has isolated those ad networks that aren’t playing ball.
Certain topics are anathema for most ad networks. Speaking out against vaccines or vaccine mandates is a certain path to being demonetized. Highlighting voter fraud in the 2020 and future elections is another instant advertising death penalty. Throw in truthful stories about climate change hysteria, Critical Race Theory, and the border crisis and it’s easy to understand how difficult it is for America-First news outlets to spread the facts, share conservative opinions, and still pay the bills.
Without naming names, I have been told of several news outlets who have been forced to either consolidate with larger organizations or who have backed down on covering certain topics out of fear of being “canceled” by the ad networks. I get it. This is a business for many of us and it’s not very profitable. Those of us who do this for a living are often barely squeaking by, so loss of additional revenue can often mean being forced to make cuts. That means not being able to cover the topics properly. Its a Catch-22: Tell the truth and lose the money necessary to keep telling the truth, or avoid the truth and make enough money to survive. Those who have chosen survival simply aren’t able to spread the truth properly.
We will never avoid the truth. The Lord will provide if it is His will. Our job is simply to share the facts, spread the Gospel, and educate as many Americans as possible while exposing the forces of evil.
To those who have the means, we ask that you please donate. We have options available now, but there is no telling when those options will cancel us. We have our GivingFuel page. There have been many who have been canceled by PayPal, but for now it’s still an option. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
