WASHINGTON—Several Pennsylvania state senators, all Republicans, met with the president in the Oval Office on Dec. 23 to discuss election fraud issues in their state. Among them was Sen. Doug Mastriano, who said afterwards that he’s “never seen anyone more resolved or determined” as Trump, “because truth is on his side.”
“The mood was determined. We need to find out what the heck happened here,” Mastriano told The Epoch Times.
He said the group took Trump through the various concerns they had, including a dump of 570,000 votes in the middle of the night for Democratic nominee Joe Biden, during which time only about 3,200 votes appeared for Trump. “Even in the bluest of blue areas of Pennsylvania that’s statistically impossible,” Mastriano said.
“And we talked about how if this is not only fixed in the future, but if it’s not fixed for what just happened here, at what point does the republic collapse?”
Mastriano held a public hearing in Gettysburg on Nov. 25, where witness testimony outlined allegations of fraud ranging from chain-of-custody issues, lost USB cards, statistical anomalies, and poll watcher access issues.
The state legislature has been out of session since Nov. 30 and Republicans have been unable to convince Gov. Tom Wolf, a Democrat, to call a special session to address election issues.
Wolf said on Dec. 4 that there’s “absolutely no reason” for state legislators to call a special session.
“We had a free and fair election and now it’s time to move on,” he wrote on Twitter.
State House Rep. Daryl Metcalfe started pushing for Wolf to call a special legislative session in early December.
“Due to the extraordinary election activities occurring, it is necessary for the General Assembly be sworn in and organize immediately in order to be actively engaged in continued oversight of this election to ensure the integrity of the process,” Metcalf wrote to Wolf on Dec. 2.
Wolf declined and a petition was launched, which is currently signed by 78 House members and 12 senators.
Mastriano said the legislature, as a co-equal branch of state government, should be able to come into session without the governor’s approval. He wants to test the constitution by convening through a simple majority vote.
“We want to come into session, because we have a crisis on our hands. And let the governor take us to court, let’s fight him on this,” he said.
State legislatures are ultimately responsible for carrying out elections in their states and for selecting the electoral college electors to present to Congress. On Dec. 14, Pennsylvania Republicans submitted a dueling slate of electors to the 20 Democratic electors. Six other states also put forth dueling electors for Trump: Wisconsin, Michigan, Georgia, Arizona, Nevada, and New Mexico.
The official vote count in Congress on Jan. 6 is expected to be contested.
Meanwhile, the Trump campaign this week filed an appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court to reverse rulings by the Pennsylvania Supreme Court that changed mail-in ballot laws without state legislature involvement.
“The fact is, there’s a lot of things that went wrong. And so we need to sort it out,” Mastriano said. “And [Trump] sees that. He’s laser focused on this republic. It’s not about him, it’s about our nation and our republic. If this is allowed to stand, what comes of us? Will we just be a republic in name only? Probably.”

COVID-19 lockdowns are taking down an independent news outlet
Nobody said running a media site would be easy. We could use some help keeping this site afloat.
Colleagues have called me the worst fundraiser ever. My skills are squarely rooted on the journalistic side of running a news outlet. Paying the bills has never been my forte, but we’ve survived. We have ads on the site that help, but since the site’s inception this has been a labor of love that otherwise doesn’t bring in the level of revenue necessary to justify it.
When I left a nice, corporate career in 2017, I did so knowing I wouldn’t make nearly as much money. But what we do at NOQ Report to deliver the truth and fight the progressive mainstream media narrative that has plagued this nation is too important for me to sacrifice it for the sake of wealth. We know we’ll never make a ton of money this way, and we’re okay with that.
Things have become harder with the coronavirus lockdowns. Both ad money and donations that have kept us afloat for a while have dropped dramatically. We thought we could weather the storm, but the resurgence of lockdowns that mainstream media and Democrats are pushing has put our prospects in jeopardy. In short, we are now in desperate need of financial assistance.
The best way NOQ Report readers can help is to donate. Our Giving Fuel page makes it easy to donate one-time or monthly. Alternatively, you can donate through PayPal as well. We need approximately $17,300 to stay afloat through March when we hope the economy will be more open, but more would be wonderful and any amount that brings us closer to our goal is greatly appreciated.
The second way to help is to become a partner. We’ve strongly considered seeking angel investors in the past but because we were paying the bills, it didn’t seem necessary. Now, we’re struggling to pay the bills. This shouldn’t be the case as our traffic the last year has been going up dramatically. June, 2018, we had 11,678 visitors. A year later in June, 2019, we were up to 116,194. In June, 2020, we had 614,192. In November, 2020, we hit 1.2 million visitors.
We’re heading in the right direction and we believe we’re ready talk to patriotic investors who want to not only “get in on the action” but more importantly who want to help America hear the truth. Interested investors should contact me directly with the contact button above.
As the world spirals towards radical progressivism, the need for truthful journalism has never been greater. But in these times, we need as many conservative media voices as possible. Please help keep NOQ Report going.
American Conservative Movement
Join fellow patriots as we form a grassroots movement to advance the cause of conservatism. The coronavirus crisis has prompted many, even some conservatives, to promote authoritarianism. It’s understandable to some extent now, but it must not be allowed to embed itself in American life. We currently have 8000+ patriots with us in a very short time. If you are interested, please join us to receive updates.
