Mike Huckabee Takes Issue With BlabberBuzz Headline, BlabberBuzz Responds

Recently, Blabberbuzz published a story referencing a statement by former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee concerning a United States Supreme Court case revolving around the outcome of the 2020 presidential election. Former Governor Huckabee took issue with the tone of the story’s headline and that it did not stress his expectations of a long-shot case.

The body of the article quoted Huckabee as saying, “Sit down; I guarantee this Supreme Court story is real. The Supreme Court has agreed to a hearing for a case that could conceivably — PLEASE consider this the longest of long shots — overturn the election of 2020, throw out all the legislators who voted to certify the results, and leave them ineligible to run for office ever again, even for town dogcatcher.” However, former Gov. Huckabee felt that the headline did not fully convey his belief that the case is “the longest of long shots.” In the former Governor’s post, he clearly stated that it was a long shot for the Court to hear such a case.

When asked about this, Elie Ashery, BlabberBuzz’s executive editor, commented, “the editorial desk felt that the focus of the story was the actual interest by Mike Huckabee given his stature as a former politician and current conservative thought leader. It was not our intention to mislead our audience into thinking the Governor placed a high statistical probability that SCOTUS would hear the case. Our apologies to the Governor and our readers if they interpreted our headline as the hearing for the Brunson case is imminent,” Ashery concluded.

Roland Brunson of Ogden, Utah, and his three brothers brought the case in question for consideration by the Supreme Court. They allege that Congress failed to consider evidence presented by 100 of its members that the 2020 presidential election had been rigged. By failure to present this evidence, the plaintiffs alleged, the respondents committed “an act of treason and fraud.”

The plaintiffs further alleged, “A successfully rigged the election has the same result as an act of war; to place into power whom the victor wants, which in this case is Biden, who, if not stopped immediately, will continue to destroy the fundamental freedoms of Brunson and all U.S. Citizens and courts of law.”

Again, Blabberbuzz regrets any misapprehension of the original story's headline concerning former Governor Huckabee’s evaluation of the chances of the case being heard.
