NEW YORK — Imagine that you awaken at 4:00 a.m. to the sound of glass breaking across the street, followed by your neighbor’s blood-curdling scream. You call 911, fearing the worst.
“There is no evidence of crime,” the police operator says. “Go back to sleep.”
Fifteen minutes later, glass shatters right next door, and another horrifying shriek fills the late-night air.
“There is no evidence of widespread crime,” the 911 operator now says. “Go back to sleep.”
Are your neighbors accidentally dropping wine glasses on their tile floors and then hollering when they step onto jagged debris? Or is a serial killer in your cul-de-sac, headed your way?
Wouldn’t it be nice if the police drove over, knocked on some doors, and looked around?
This is how the media, others on the Left, and (inexplicably) Attorney General William Barr respond to reports of suspected vote fraud that grow by the day.
“No evidence!” they shout. As things look fishier with each passing day, they now say that there is “no evidence” of “widespread” vote fraud, as if “moderate” vote fraud were A-OK rather than a national outrage.
Fact: There IS evidence of vote fraud, irregularities, statistical anomalies, and other things that simply are not right about last month’s election. Debating the importance of this evidence is appropriate, indeed vital. But pretending that it doesn’t exist and calling complaints of election malfeasance “baseless” and “unsubstantiated” is pure denial of the most societally corrosive kind.
