If prosecutions don’t happen, this activity will resume in the future

“Joe Biden orchestrated”

This part is incorrect.

It should read “anonymous staffers orchestrated”.

This no doubt affected President Trump’s decision to reduce the staff at government agencies, which courts are also finding was done illegally. Trump will now implement a more proper reduction in force of the federal work force.

“...and the Department of Justice.”

Ms. Bondi has many people to fire, maybe press charges that will stick against these gummit criminals.

Which means only one thing for sure...Trump’s win was actually bigger.

People will forget this now, Trump was elected and other issues are at the forefront.

But IMHO, the election process in the US is so gamed (manipulated) that it is very questionable if we really have a true democratic process anymore.

You have a highly complex election system where there are aspects with little transparency (digital voting machines for example), which allows for many various entry points to game the system for one candidate, and against the other.

This is a priority issue.

House Republicans are making it clear: this abuse of power will not be tolerated. The executive branch must never be allowed to use taxpayer money to control election outcomes.

Someone PLEASE show me otherwise, because as far as I have seen so far, this GOP Congress has done NOTHING to support the changes that Pres Trump is making to counter all of these abuses and thefts and malfeasance.

At some point in time, if not already, the Department of Justice and others in the Trump Administration will have to face the reality that they are dealing with numerous acts of treason committed by Joe Biden (i.e., his White House puppetmasters) and department leadership throughout the Executive Branch.

I wish they’d stop saying Biden. We know he was a mental basket case. It is unlikely he had any clue what was really happening. They just gave him ice cream and told him what a good job he was doing. Who was driving the auto pen? Name the usurpers. They must be brought to trial. NOW!

Yeah, yeah, yeah. If no one goes to jail this is nothing more than a PR stunt.

Words are cheap. Heads on pikes, dammit!

This article is long on words but short on content and lacks specifics.

"...official letters sent by Congress to fourteen federal agencies" is vague to the extreme. What letters? Sent by whom? By what committee? To what federal agencies?

Here is some background info:

The House Administration Committee is a quiet committee as is Chairman Bryan Steil, but they do important work. Its jurisdiction includes Federal Election Law. The committee monitors and proposes amendments to federal election laws and oversees congressional elections across the U.S. Steil succeeded the execrable Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-CA) as chairman.

Steil also serves on the House Financial Services Committee, where he chairs the Subcommittee on Digital Assets, Financial Technology, and Artificial Intelligence. On June 13, 2024 (when Biden was "president"), Steil issued subpoenas to 15 Biden administration cabinet officials for documents related to EO 14019, signed by Biden on March 7, 2021. This order, titled "Promoting Access to Voting," directed federal agencies to enhance voter registration and participation efforts. Steil and other Republicans have criticized it as a partisan "get-out-the-vote scheme" (sometimes dubbed "Bidenbucks"), arguing it could improperly influence elections by mobilizing voters in a way that benefits Democrats. The subpoenas sought strategic plans from these agencies to assess their implementation of the order, reflecting concerns about potential misuse rather than direct accusations of election fraud by Biden himself. Five of these officials were later subpoenaed again on August 28, 2024, for sworn depositions after initial noncompliance, indicating a deepening of the probe. The 15 subpoenas were sent to:

NameDepartment
Antony BlinkenSecretary of State
Janet YellenSecretary of the Treasury
Lloyd AustinSecretary of Defense
Merrick GarlandAttorney General (Justice)
Deb HaalandSecretary of the Interior
Tom VilsackSecretary of Agriculture
Gina RaimondoSecretary of Commerce
Xavier BecerraSecretary of Health and Human Services
Adrianne TodmanActing Secretary of Housing and Urban Development
Julie SuActing Secretary of Labor
Miguel CardonaSecretary of Education
Jennifer GranholmSecretary of Energy
Pete ButtigiegSecretary of Transportation
Alejandro MayorkasSecretary of Homeland Security
Shalanda YoungDirector of the Office of Management and Budget
A July 30, 2024, committee press release stated that, over a month after the June 26 deadline, "Chairman Steil has yet to receive the requested strategic plans from any of the 15 subpoenaed agencies." They ALL blew it off!

On August 28, 2024, Steil subpoenaed five of the 15—Becerra (HHS), Su (Labor), Todman (HUD), Garland (Justice), and Vilsack (Agriculture)—for sworn depositions, citing their "failure to comply with a lawfully issued congressional subpoena"

By December 17, 2024, during a committee hearing, Steil announced receiving over 6,000 documents from "federal agencies" in the EO 14019 probe, but he didn’t specify which of the 15 contributed or whether all did. He did note ongoing resistance, saying, "The Biden Administration has refused to fully comply," implying that even with some document production, compliance was incomplete across the group. He did not make it clear who fully ignored versus partially responded. It appears only HHS (Becerra) and HUD (Todman) offered limited, inadequate replies and the other 13 ignored the subpoena entirely.

The 15 officials are, of course, no longer in their roles. The House Administration Committee is still chaired by Steil in the 119th Congress (began January 3, 2025), but he has not released a comprehensive update post-January 20, 2025, on the final compliance status of the original 15 under Biden.

In January, Steil issued a press release titled "Steil Statement on Trump Inauguration," in which he said: "Getting our elections right is vital to restoring trust in our system. I am committed to ensuring that our elections are free, fair, and secure. These principles are vital to our democracy, and I’ll keep working to strengthen Americans’ trust in our elections." This reflects his ongoing focus on election integrity as a priority in the new Congress, though it’s broad and doesn’t specify new actions beyond his prior work on Executive Order 14019 or other initiatives. No press releases or hearings explicitly mentioning election integrity have been posted on cha.house.gov or steil.house.gov between January 20, 2025, and today (March 21, 2025).

Fractal was just too strong and well engineered for the rodents to beat. Plus they ran a moron and a fake soldier which made it impossible for the rodents to win.
Those who constantly whined, “But they’ll cheat” think again.
