Report: America Has Nearly 300,000 Double-Registered Voters

/4 Comments/in , /by

A watchdog group has uncovered close to 300,000 voters registered in two or more states, including thousands of double voters.

“Registrars aren’t doing their jobs,” Linda Szynkowicz, CEO of the nonprofit Fight Voter Fraud, told The Federalist. “Stop telling me the voter rolls are fine. They’re not.”

Fight Voter Fraud found 297,856 voters registered in two or more states, according to a report released last week. Nearly all of these voters only registered in two states, but 3,112 registered in three states and 24 registered in four or more.

The report also found 3,170 people who voted at least twice in elections from 2016 to 2022. While most only double voted once, 248 double voted twice, 194 double voted three times, and 180 double voted four times.

Fight Voter Fraud’s report included data for all 50 states, of which Florida had the most double registrations — more than 37,000 — along with 312 who voted multiple times in elections. California had similar numbers, with more than 36,000 double registered, and 732 who voted multiple times. (Read more from “Report: America Has Nearly 300,000 Double-Registered Voters” HERE)

Donald Trump’s Gag Order Appeal Rejected in New York ‘Hush Money’ Case

/0 Comments/in , /by

A New York appeals court on Thursday denied Donald Trump’s bid to end a gag order in his hush money criminal case, rejecting the Republican’s argument that his May conviction “constitutes a change in circumstances” that warrants lifting the restrictions.

A five-judge panel in the state’s mid-level appellate court ruled that the trial judge, Juan M. Merchan, was correct in extending parts of the gag order until Trump is sentenced, writing that “the fair administration of justice necessarily includes sentencing.”

Merchan imposed the gag order in March, a few weeks before the trial started, after prosecutors raised concerns about Trump’s habit of attacking people involved in his cases. (Read more from “Donald Trump’s Gag Order Appeal Rejected in New York ‘Hush Money’ Case” HERE)

Biden DHS Alleged to Have Tried to Suppress Critical Jan. 6 Report

/0 Comments/in , /by

Inspector General Joseph Cuffari accused Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) of trying to suppress a report concerning the Secret Service’s response on Jan. 6, 2021.

Jonathan Meyer, DHS’ head lawyer, vehemently denied the allegation and stated DHS does not want to prevent Congress from reading the entire report. He added that DHS will redact “security sensitive” information pertaining to the Secret Service’s operations, according to a June 25 letter reviewed by POLITICO.

The Secret Service falls under the DHS, and an anonymous DHS official told POLITICO the inspector general “has exclusive authority to determine when to release a report to Congress.”

Cuffari, an appointee of former President Donald Trump, has opened two investigations into the Secret Service’s security role regarding Trump’s attempted assassination thus far. Some Republicans, however, claim DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas has stalled these assessments, specifically the report titled “USSS Preparation for and Response to the Events of January 6, 2021.”

Congressional Sources told Real Clear Investigations (RCI) the above report has been sitting on the secretary’s desk “since at least April.” (Read more from “Biden DHS Alleged to Have Tried to Suppress Critical Jan. 6 Report” HERE)

Why Does the Government Appear to Want to Kill January 6 Political Prisoner Ryan Samsel?

/5 Comments/in , /by

Why does the government appear to want to kill January 6 political prisoner Ryan Samsel?

Throughout his nearly four years of pretrial detention, Samsel has pleaded – to no avail – with judges and jail staff to allow him the critical, life-saving vascular surgery he was prescribed before his arrest to stop his blood from clotting.

Instead, he developed 17 blood clots throughout his body while being systemically denied medical treatment during his incarceration. Left untreated, the clots morph into blood-flow-obstructing fibroids. . .

But the Biden Justice Department has essentially played political football with the lives of Samsel and all the other so-called “insurrectionists” who were unprecedentedly assaulted, gassed, bombed and shot at with less-than-lethal munitions by police, terrorized by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, denied bail while held in pretrial custody for years for nonviolent crimes, and handed shockingly lengthy prison sentences for trumped-up or trivial charges that are normally treated as misdemeanors punishable by fines or a maximum one-year prison term.

In addition to being denied the lifesaving procedure, Samsel has essentially been tortured while detained in pretrial detention for “his role in the Capitol riot,” repeatedly assaulted by jail guards, from which he has sustained irreversible injuries including loss of eyesight and a broken orbital floor. He has sometimes been detained in solitary confinement for weeks and months at a time.

Stage Set for Another Election Catastrophe in Major Swing State

/2 Comments/in , , /by

Georgia was one of the swing states in the 2020 presidential election where there were concerns about massive fraud: Tens of thousands of probably illegal ballots. . .

And now a report in the Federalist is warning that because of that failure, the 2024 vote in Georgia is setting up to be a catastrophe.

The report explains there were charges that some 35,000 possibly illegal votes were counted that election. That was the election when Joe Biden was declared the winner by only 11,779 votes.

The issue is being pushed by Mark Davis, the president of Data Productions Inc. “and an expert in voter data analytics and residency issues,” according to the report. He filed documents with the Georgia secretary of state and the state election board seeking an investigation of some 25,794 possibly illegal votes subsequently cast in the 2022 midterms. . .

“And now, with just four months until the November 2024 general election, the state’s refusal to address the problem ensures chaos will ensue unless there is a complete blowout by one of the candidates,” the report explained.

Olympics Triathlete Jolien Vermeylen Rips Officials After Swimming in Polluted Seine River: ‘Felt and Saw Things That We Shouldn’t Think About’

/1 Comment/in , /by

An Olympic triathlete shared her disgusting experience of swimming in the Seine as she blasted the officials who claimed the polluted river was safe enough to swim in.

Jolien Vermeylen, representing Belgium at this year’s Games, said she felt debris in the water during her 1500-meter swim through the iconic French river at the beginning of the Women’s Triathlon on Wednesday.

“While swimming under the bridge, I felt and saw things that we shouldn’t think about too much,” she told Flemish TV channel VTM, according to Metro.

Vermeylen finished in 24th place. She said she had ingested a lot of water during the race and was concerned with what it would do to her body.

“We’ll know tomorrow if I’m sick or not,” she said. “It doesn’t taste like Coca-Cola or Sprite, of course.” (Read more from “Olympics Triathlete Jolien Vermeylen Rips Officials After Swimming in Polluted Seine River: ‘Felt and Saw Things That We Shouldn’t Think About’” HERE)

Kamala Harris Fails to Sit for Interview During First Week of Presidential Campaign

/4 Comments/in , /by

Riding on excitement and energy, Vice President Kamala Harris has yet to sit down for an interview more than a week into her presidential campaign.

Within thirty minutes of President Joe Biden dropping out of the presidential race on July 21, Harris became the presumptive Democratic nominee thanks to Biden’s endorsement. Amid the rallies, endorsements and speaking engagements, Harris is yet to sit down for a TV or print interview.

On the contrary, Biden, who has repeatedly dodged traditional media appearances and press conferences, rapidly arranged sit-downs in the final weeks of his campaign as a way to prove his fitness for office. The president sat down for two TV interviews, the first with ABC News’ George Stephanopoulos and then NBC News’ Lester Holt. The president also did a sit-down that ran online for Complex.

The president also did a solo press conference at D.C.’s NATO Summit, a showing that temporarily quelled concerns about his bid for reelection. But nine days into the Harris campaign, she is yet to do anything similar, despite the president’s old campaign being converted into her own, according to Politico.

“We’re building the plane while we’re flying it,” former Democratic South Carolina State Rep. Bakari Sellers told Politico. “She’s going to be everywhere. Her message will be everywhere. This is going to be unlike anything we’ve seen before. These won’t be baby steps. She’ll explode on the scene.” (Read more from “Kamala Harris Fails to Sit for Interview During First Week of Presidential Campaign” HERE)

Harris Accidentally Calls Herself ‘The President’ During Late Dem Rep’s Eulogy — Causing Crowd to Go Wild

/2 Comments/in , /by

Vice President Kamala Harris accidentally called herself the “president” Thursday while delivering a eulogy for late Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Texas), causing the crowd to go wild as she repeatedly corrected herself.

Harris, standing beside Democratic leaders including Bill and Hillary Clinton, was speaking in Houston about the late congresswoman’s long career in public service. She recalled that Jackson Lee introduced legislation to make Juneteenth – the day marking the end of slavery in the US – a federal holiday.

“Which as a US Senator, I was proud to co-sponsor and then as presi–” Harris said about her role in getting the bill through, before correcting herself.

“As vice president it was my honor – with the president! With the president!” she said as the crowd applauded and cheered.

“It was my honor – it was my honor, with our president Joe Biden to stand beside Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee as our president signed her bill into law.” (Read more from “Harris Accidentally Calls Herself ‘The President’ During Late Dem Rep’s Eulogy — Causing Crowd to Go Wild” HERE)

Texas Scores ‘Major Victory’ Over Biden Administration

/2 Comments/in , /by

The 5th Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled in Texas’s favor, lifting an injunction that ordered the state to remove buoys it placed in the Rio Grande River to deter illegal border crossings.

The Biden Department of Justice brought a legal challenge against the Lone Star State last year for installing the buoys without federal authorization.

Associate Attorney General Vanita Gupta claimed the floating barrier was a threat to navigation and presented a public safety concern. It also risked “damaging U.S. foreign policy” with Mexico over the country’s objection to the barrier.

In 2023, Texas deployed the buoys to address the historic levels of aliens attempting illegal, dangerous—and in some cases, deadly—river crossings. The Biden Administration then sued and demanded Texas remove the buoys and reopen the border. A federal district court granted the Biden Administration a preliminary injunction and ordered the buoys to be removed and a Fifth Circuit panel issued a split decision upholding the order. However, in January 2024, Attorney General Paxton secured an en banc rehearing before the Fifth Circuit.

The full court has now ruled that the district court’s flawed preliminary injunction misapplied the law and was an abuse of the lower court’s authority. The buoy barrier can remain in the river while proceedings continue at the district court level. (Texas Attorney General’s Office)
