Colorado Tells DOJ ‘Take a Hike’ as It Rejects Demand for Statewide Voter Data “We will not comply with the Trump Department of Justice’s request for Coloradans’ sensitive voting information,” Griswold said in a statement. “The DOJ can take a hike; it does not have a legal right to the information. Colorado will not help Donald Trump undermine our elections and hurt the American people.” The U.S. Department of Justice asked Colorado to share unredacted voter information, according to Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold, and the state “Will Not Comply"

n September the U.S. Justice Department Civil Rights Division filed federal lawsuits against six states for failure to produce their statewide voter registration lists upon request: — California, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, New Hampshire, and Pennsylvania. As the Globe said at the time, “That the DOJ is hauling California, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, New Hampshire, and Pennsylvania into court for hiding their voter rolls is monumental, and specifically the accountability Americans have been clamoring for.” Today, the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division did it again, but filed federal lawsuits against six additional states — Delaware, Maryland, New Mexico, Rhode Island,...

As a resident of Nashville, I have been hearing nothing but the suddenly close race in the Tennessee 7th Congressional District election for the last couple of weeks. It was all over the national news as well, even though the competitors, Matt Van Epps (R) and Aftyn Behn (D) were hardly household names. (The man they were replacing, the suddenly resigned Rep. Mark Green, was better known, though not always for the best reasons.) The possibility that Behn would win in a district that Donald Trump won by 22 points in 2024 had Democrats and all the ships in their...

Former GOP Rep. Mark Green’s resignation in July triggered a special election for Tennessee’s 7th Congressional District, a longtime Republican seat that President Donald Trump carried by 22 points in the 2024 election. Still, millions of dollars from both parties flowed into the district ahead of the special election. Republican Matt Van Epps, a former state official, and Democratic state Rep. Aftyn Behn won their parties’ special primaries in October, with Van Epps beating a broad GOP field with the help of a late Trump endorsement.

The U.S. Supreme Court could soon extend its administrative stay in the Texas redistricting case that has generated nationwide controversy and headlines for months. If so, a legal analyst told CBS News Texas that it will become a clear signal that the Justices will keep the 2025 congressional maps in place for next year's all-important midterm elections.

Gen Z and Millennials will make up 60% of the votes in upcoming elections. The successful leaders will have done the work and articulated the principles that motivate this up-and-coming group. The old platitudes will not work. Neither will the old political parties. These younger citizens reject the petulant Baby-Boomers’ vitriol and want answers to hard questions. These are the same questions every generation asks. It’s just gotten very real for this generation, and they want workable answers, not platitudes. The excesses of past generations have finally come home to roost. The national debt crushes the younger generation’s ability to...

In the summer of 2008, Venezuelan strongman Hugo Chávez boasted to his bodyguard, “I’m about to elect the first black president of the United States.” And he did. They all know. They all knew. Everyone on the left. Every grandee, every premier and governor in the Democrat Party, U.K.’s Labour Party, Canada’s Liberal Party. Every vicious moron that runs the U.N., including the Secretary-General. Every top leftie strategist. Every NGO funder and chief. They learned it one at a time, one election at a time as their participation became necessary. They all cashed out on it. It is their great...

A co-founder of Nike has spent a staggering $3 million in a bid to boost Republican victories in Oregon. Phil Knight, worth an estimated $34.4 billion, donated a sliver of his wealth last month into the Bring Balance to Salem PAC, which aims to curb Democratic dominance in state politics, according to the Willamette Week. The political action committee, founded in 2021, spent nearly $5 million in 2022 - and slightly more again in 2024 - to support Republican candidates. Democrats now dominate both legislative chambers, holding an 18–12 majority in the Oregon state Senate and a 37–23 majority in...

The organizers and volunteers have 96 days to gather the needed one million signatures A California Voter ID initiative looks likely to appear on the 2026 ballot with over 600,000 signatures, just short of the million signatures needed to qualify. The organizers and volunteers have 96 days to gather the remaining signatures for the initiative to appear before the voters and have expressed confidence they will gather the million signatures within the next few months. According to Assemblyman Carl DeMaio’s Reform California, the organization spearheading the effort, “the ballot initiative is a state constitutional amendment to impose a Voter ID...

Marjorie Taylor Greene's abrupt decision to resign from Congress is drawing scrutiny after it emerged that her chosen departure date falls just two days after her federal pension becomes fully vested. The timing places the 51-year-old Georgia Republican past the five-year service threshold required for lawmakers to qualify for lifetime pension benefits under federal rules. Greene announced Friday that she is leaving Congress and will step down on January 5, 2026.

President Trump has been trying his best to get Tina Peters out of prison in Colorado. She was sentenced to nine years in prison at age 69 for, at best, a misdemeanor they raised to a felony. She was acting as a whistleblower, or at least she thought so. In the most vengeful responses, the state has refused every effort to bring her to federal prison. Steve Bannon said she has now been sent to the hole, the special housing unit. In other words, she’s in solitary confinement where wardens send prisoners to break them psychologically and physically. That does...

Gov Abbott and Attorney General Paxton appeal federal decision that invalidated new congressional map Gerrymandering has been a staple of the Republic since its beginning. The practice has such a storied tradition that it is named after Elbridge Gerry, one of our founding fathers who served as vice president under President James Madison. For decades, leftists attempted to outlaw partisan gerrymandering. Justice Anthony Kennedy could not make up his mind on the issue, so it languished until he retired. Fortunately for the Constitution, President Trump replaced Justice Kennedy — the Court’s swing vote for over a dozen years — with...

Dana Williamson, who served as California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s chief of staff from January 2023 to December 2024, faces a slew of federal charges for fraud, corruption, and obstruction, but none of those charges implicate her for wrongdoing in her capacity as Newsom’s aide. Instead, the charges allege that she stole and deceived outside of her official duties.That prospect is threatening to rope Newsom’s entire administration into the scandal.However, speculation is growing that Williamson also acted improperly in office — meaning that wrongdoing was taking place in the governor’s office under Newsom’s watch. That prospect is threatening to rope Newsom’s...

Dominion voting machines found to have phone chips in them mounted on the motherboards. Source: Attorney Peter Ticktin. These were in the tabulator(s) honest clerks in Michigan turned over to the good guys. So it is possible for someone to call into the tabulators using a phone or computer! This raises questions as Dominion voting machines, to the public appearance at least, use a USB stick style external modem. Similar to the one in the image below. The on-the-motherboard-chip used to be on most motherboards in the 1980's-1990's, until broadband came along. A true telephone chip on a motherboard is...
