Under-the-Radar Supreme Court Case Could End California’s Delayed Election Counts for Good

A pending case at the US Supreme Court could put an end to delayed ballot counts — like in the recent Los Angeles mayor’s race in California — that have caused voters to lose confidence in elections, according to Republicans.

The high court in March heard oral arguments in Watson v. Republican National Committee, a Mississippi case that may result in a ruling stopping the practice of counting mail-in ballots that arrive up to five days after an election date.

It’s one of at least 14 states, along with California, New York and Texas, as well as the District of Columbia, with laws that allow for late ballots so long as envelopes are postmarked by Election Day. Around 30 states have some sort of grace period for absentee ballots as well, letting military or US citizens abroad cast their votes.

That grace period for mail ballots, which the RNC has argued is unconstitutional, is one of the reasons that Los Angeles residents still don’t know, nearly a week after, whether candidates Spencer Pratt or Nithya Raman will advance to a runoff contest in November against incumbent Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass.

“What’s happening in California is a Democrat failure on full display,” RNC Chairman Joe Gruters told The Post. “Nearly a week after the primary, it is completely unacceptable ballots are still being counted. That’s why the RNC is aggressively fighting in the Supreme Court to stop ballots received after Election Day from being counted. Americans deserve timely election results they can trust.” (Read more from “Under-the-Radar Supreme Court Case Could End California’s Delayed Election Counts for Good” HERE)

NBC Reporter’s Six-Word Claim about California Elections that Caused Trump to Storm Off

An NBC News reporter’s comments about California’s elections and the 2020 presidential race caused President Trump to storm out of their interview Sunday.

Kristen Welker sparred with the commander-in-chief over his claims the state’s voting was rigged as the counting continues and Democrat candidates suddenly enjoy a late stream of votes from mail-in ballots.

“That’s how they vote in California,” Welker replied after Trump pointed to the state’s still-unfinished ballot count as proof that something nefarious was happening.

The tense moment came during an interview on “Meet the Press,” when the president revived his longstanding allegations about election integrity while discussing California’s primaries.

The exchange became increasingly heated before Trump accused the network of bias and cut the interview short.

“It’s happening again right now in California,” Trump said, referring to the state’s vote-counting process. “This is happening right now in California, right now. It’s four days.” (Read more from “NBC Reporter’s Six-Word Claim about California Elections that Caused Trump to Storm Off” HERE)

Blue State Faces Election Fraud Investigations Amid Major Vote Count Delays

First Assistant U.S. Attorney for the Central District of California Bill Essayli announced multiple investigations Friday into California’s elections as vote counts for key races continue to face major delays.

Essayli announced his office will be investigating election integrity in California as a “top priority” alongside the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Los Angeles, saying the current system is plagued with “serious structural vulnerabilities.” Essayli cited universal vote-by-mail and the lack of voter ID requirements as facilitating potential election fraud, ultimately “eroding public confidence.”

Both California’s gubernatorial and Los Angeles’ mayoral race are facing ongoing delays several days after Tuesday night’s primary. The vote count for the races has stagnated at roughly 60%, with both elections too close to call.

This is standard procedure for California elections, with votes often taking several days and even weeks to finalize.

“We will follow the evidence wherever it leads and prosecute any violations of federal election law to the fullest extent,” Essayli said in a post on X. (Read more from “Blue State Faces Election Fraud Investigations Amid Major Vote Count Delays” HERE)

California School Sent Kids On Segregated Field Trip For ‘Social Justice’

A California school district recently organized a field trip that excluded white students and maintains several other race-based policies, documents reveal.

Albany Unified School District (AUSD) hosted the trip to Virginia for “young men and women of color” to visit Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU) and discuss issues such as “social justice,” according to documents obtained by parental rights group Defending Education (DE) and shared exclusively with the Daily Caller News Foundation. The trip was approved by the board of education and cost the district $42,845.

“This unique mentoring program encourages Albany High School young men and women of color to develop social, personal, and academic success skills,” the document from the board reads. “Students gather in a safe, supportive, and empowering environment to voice their needs and challenges. The students engage in enriching discussions on social justice, education, leadership, mental well-being, and self-awareness. This mentoring program is transforming the lives of young men and women of color to make a significant global impact in society.”

Along with college tours, students visited the Virginia Museum of History and Culture, the Virginia Civil Rights Memorial and the Black Heritage Trail.

The district maintains several other programs geared specifically toward non-white students and staff, documents show. (Read more from “California School Sent Kids On Segregated Field Trip For ‘Social Justice’” HERE)

President Trump Orders Oil Drilling Operations to Resume off California

The Trump administration has signed an executive order to ​resume oil drilling operations off the Southern California coast, citing national energy security concerns.

The order, which invokes a Cold War-era Defense Production Act, will prove controversial despite the potential to bring down gas prices, which are now the highest in America.

Gov. Gavin Newsom also flagged the state would challenge the order in the courts.

Secretary of Energy Chris Wright is now permitted to take actions under the Defense Production Act.

California’s price for a regular gallon hit an average of $5.416 on Friday.

That’s far above the national average of $3.60. (Read more from “President Trump Orders Oil Drilling Operations to Resume off California” HERE)

FBI Warned West Coast Police Departments Of Potential Iran Strikes

The FBI warned California police departments of Iran potentially striking the West Coast on Wednesday.

An alert distributed to departments by the FBI stated that the agency had “recently acquired information” that the Islamic Republic of Iran “aspired” to launch an attack on targets in California, ABC News reported Wednesday.

“We recently acquired information that as of early February 2026, Iran allegedly aspired to conduct a surprise attack using unmanned aerial vehicles from an unidentified vessel off the coast of the United State Homeland,” the alert stated, “in the event that the US conducted strikes against Iran.”

“We have no additional information on the timing, method, target, or perpetrators of this alleged attack,” the alert reportedly added.

The Daily Caller News Foundation was unable to reach the FBI for a comment.

Trans athlete dominates California high school girls’ track event

A transgender California high schooler dominated a major track-and-field meet on Saturday, claiming three first-place medals in girls’ events — including the high jump, in which she beat the runner-up by almost a foot.

AB Hernandez, a senior at Jurupa Valley High School and a biological male, competed in the girls’ events at the Roosevelt Invitational over the weekend, despite being at the center of the Trump administration’s threat to cut federal funds to the state.

Hernandez swept the competition, securing the gold in the high jump with a clearance of 5′ 8″ (1.72m) — almost a foot higher than the 4′ 10″ (1.47m) cleared by the athlete who came in second.

Hernandez also easily claimed the top spot on the podium for the girls’ long jump and triple jump, where she recorded jumps of 17′ 3¼ ” (5.26m) and 38′ 4″ (11.68m), respectively.

The weekend’s victories follow a record-breaking performance in February at the VS California Winter Championships, where Hernandez won the girls’ triple jump with a leap of 39′ 10″. (Read more from “Trans athlete dominates California high school girls’ track event” HERE)

World’s Most Contagious Disease Rips Across California — as More Than 100 Kids Feared Exposed in Major City

Sacramento health officials are warning of a potential viral explosion after more than 100 children were possibly exposed to measles at an educational enrichment program.

The alarm was sounded after an unvaccinated child, who was infectious at the time, attended the unidentified program in Sacramento County last week.

Public health officials say as many as 130 children may have been exposed to the virus. The enrichment program has reportedly temporarily closed its facility following the incident.

“Measles, one of the most contagious infections, can lead to severe life-long consequences including permanent brain damage and can also be fatal, especially for children,” said Dr. Erica Pan, CDPH director and state public health officer, in a March 6 release.

“The measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine is safe and provides long-lasting protection against measles. Vaccination protects both our own families and those who are too young to be fully vaccinated.” (Read more from “World’s Most Contagious Disease Rips Across California — as More Than 100 Kids Feared Exposed in Major City” HERE)

Fury as Serial Child Molester Freed From Prison Early: ‘Monster Parents Fear Most’

In a jaw-dropping decision that’s igniting fury across California, state officials have approved the parole for one of Sacramento County’s most reviled child predators — despite promises he would die behind bars.

David Allen Funston, 64, was granted parole under California’s Elderly Parole Program this week, stunning victims and prosecutors who believed he would never walk free. The program allows inmates over the age of 50 who have served 20 years to petition for release.

“He shouldn’t be breathing the same air that we’re breathing at all,” one of Funston’s victims, who was taken and assaulted by him at 4-years-old, told the Los Angeles Times. “I disagree with him getting paroled out because he’s a horrible person. That man is a monster.”

The monster in question earned his reputation through a reign of terror in the mid-90’s. Living in a suburb of Sacramento, Funston reportedly kidnapped and molested at least eight children — seven girls and one boy — luring them in with Barbie dolls and candy.

One victim, a five-year-old immigrant girl who spoke limited English, was assaulted and abandoned 50 miles from her home in a rural county. (Read more from “Fury as Serial Child Molester Freed From Prison Early: ‘Monster Parents Fear Most’” HERE)

Sanctuary California: Illegal Alien Hit with More Child Rape Charges After Allegedly Murdering 13-Year-Old Boy

An illegal alien accused of raping and murdering 13-year-old Oscar Hernandez last year in the sanctuary state of California has been hit with additional child rape charges involving two other teen boys.

Last year, as Breitbart News reported, 44-year-old illegal alien Mario Edgardo Garcia-Aquino of El Salvador was arrested and charged by the Los Angeles District Attorney’s Office with raping Hernandez and then murdering him, leaving his body on the side of a road in Ventura County, California.

Hernandez was first reported missing by his family on March 28 after he had taken a train to Lancaster, California, to visit Garcia-Aquino, a youth soccer coach to young boys. Police allege that Garcia-Aquino murdered Hernandez while raping him before dumping his body.

Now, Garcia-Aquino is facing nine additional child sexual abuse charges — eight counts of sodomy of a person under 16 and one count of oral copulation of a person under 16.

Garcia-Aquino had been charged with sexually assaulting a teenage boy in December 2022 and was charged again in a separate case in February 2024 for sexually assaulting another teenage boy.
