Journalists and other liberal activists who spend an unhealthy amount of time online expressed outrage this weekend over a Wall Street Journal op-ed urging Joe Biden‘s wife to stop referring to herself as Dr. Jill Biden.
Dr. Biden, who holds a doctorate degree in education (Ed.D.) from the University of Delaware, has long insisted on being identified as a doctor. Apart from being married to Joe Biden, it is perhaps her most defining feature as an individual.
Democrats immediately seized on the Journal op-ed, which was authored by celebrated essayist Joseph Epstein. A spokesman for Dr. Biden demanded an apologize for the “repugnant display of chauvinism.” Biden’s own spokeswoman denounced the op-ed as “patronizing, sexist, elitist drivel.”
Most journalists agreed and rallied to the doctor’s defense, as did the Merriam-Webster Twitter account: The word ‘doctor’ comes from the Latin word for “teacher.” https://t.co/wUihrn6Hyq — Merriam-Webster (@MerriamWebster) December 12, 2020.
Dr. Sebastian Gorka, Ph.D., a prominent Trump adviser, was routinely mocked for demanding proper recognition for the political-science doctorate he earned at Corvinus University of Budapest.
A Washington Post analysis from 2017 found that mainstream media outlets refused to identify Gorka as a doctor and noted that journalists have long frowned on the notion of conferring the title on anyone who isn’t an actual physician.

“Republicans believe that states are in charge of elections. … I’m having a hard time figuring out the basis for that lawsuit.” ~Sen. Lamar Alexander, Meet the Press, Dec. 13, 2020
So Republicans plan to ignore every illegal court ruling overturning state voter integrity laws in the future, right?
In recent years, the federal courts have waded into every political issue imaginable. They have prevented states from enforcing federal immigration law, while not only greenlighting states to criminalize federal law, but preventing the federal government from cutting off funding to sanctuary states. They have prevented states from defining marriage, upholding basic sexuality, or placing commonsense health regulations on abortion clinics. They have prevented states from cleaning out homeless encampments and from simply declining to fund castration “surgery” in prison or through Medicaid funding. They have also prevented states from requiring able-bodied Medicaid recipients attempt to seek employment.
For a while, it appeared there was nothing a state (and even the feds) could do without a federal court violating the rules of standing to give some straw-man third-party organization (often on behalf of illegal aliens) standing to sue to overturn the outcome of a fundamentally political issue and decide it with finality.
However, those same courts have no problem when states thumb their noses at federal immigration law or when they violate every individual right known to man in under the guise of fighting coronavirus.

Pennsylvania Voter Turnout Way Above Average, Fuelling More Speculation Of Fraud
by Casey | Nov 12, 2020 | Blog, Conspiracy, Politics
There’s been a lot of speculation about voter fraud in Pennsylvania. President Trump‘s team has filed lawsuits to investigate those allegations.
Rudy Giuliani says that 650,000 votes were illegally counted in Philadelphia and Pittsburgh. There may be 900,000 invalid ballots total. Less than 54,000 votes separate Joe Biden and President Trump.
“I think we have enough to change Pennsylvania. The Pennsylvania election was a disaster,” Giuliani said. “We have people that observed people being pushed out of the polling place. We have people who were suggested to vote the other way and shown how to do it. I’m giving you the big picture.”

For the record, we don’t know if that is accurate but there’s certainly enough evidence to warrant an investigation.
It’s not just the voting irregularities, removal of poll watchers, or the unlawful election law changes that have people speculating fraud. It’s the voter turnout itself. This is the case in multiple states but we are only focused on Pennsylvania here.
As of the writing of this article, the Pennsylvania government website says 6,802,581 people have voted so far. The count isn’t done yet. In 2016, the total vote was 6,115,402. That’s an increase of 687,179 votes, and they aren’t done with 2020 counting yet. Before 2016, the highest number of votes was in 2008 for Obama with 6,010,519 votes.
These numbers are dramatic, to say the least. Skeptics might say that doesn’t really matter. This was a major election and people were motivated to vote.
There’s some logic to that, but I’d have to ask if they would really be more motivated to vote now than in the elections with Hillary or Obama. I’m not so sure.
Here’s where things get more interesting …
Since 2016, Pennsylvania has only added 279,023 registered voters. So we have an increase of 279,023 registered voters but an increase of 687,179 votes?
Furthermore, voter turnout is 75.57% for 2020. It was 70.11%. There’s been a nearly 5.5% increase in voter turnout? This would be the highest voter turnout since 1992. Prior to 1992, voter turnout above 75% was the norm but it’s not happened one time since then. It’s usually in the high 60s.
Do these numbers specifically indicate fraud? No. They are, however, very irregular in, not only their patterns but their scope of change.
If Rudy Giuliani is right about those 650,000 ballots, and I’m not saying he is, it would make Pennsylvania’s voter turnout 68.35%. That is in the historically accurate range since 1992 for the state while still increasing total votes by 37,179 over 2016 … a new record in total votes for the state.
Given the large numbers we see here and the other issues surrounding Pennsylvania, you can see why people are skeptical of the results.
In summary:
Registered Voters
2016 – 8,722,977
2020 – 9,002,000
Total Votes
2008 – 6,010,519
2016 – 6,115,402
2020 – 6,802,581 (So Far)
Voter Turnout
2008 – 68.65%
2016 – 70.11%
2020 – 75.57% (So Far)
