America remains deeply divided over whether the 2020 presidential election was stolen from Donald Trump. Millions believe the system failed them, while the media, intelligence bureaucracy, and the left have treated their doubts as something to suppress rather than investigate. The documents released this week by the Trump administration do not close the case. They reopen it – and make the “nothing to see here” narrative indefensible. Start with Communist China. The released intelligence reports that approximately 220 million American voter records are in Chinese hands. Tens of millions of records across 18 states were bought, stolen, or hacked and...

Given the massive amount of fraud that Trump revealed (and that slipped by most people), it’s questionable whether we’ve actually had any elections recently. President Trump gives a great stump speech. But when he’s trying to educate America about critical issues like election integrity, he sucks. Sorry, but it’s the truth. That’s why I’m calling this session of the “Make Elections Safe Again” (MESA) seminar to order. Take your seats and pull out your writing tools. While you’re at it, let’s have a Simultaneous Sip in memory of Scott Adams. The President laid down a lot of factual materials. But...

Strange to relate, in last night’s speech to the nation on election chicanery, President Trump managed to both overwhelm and underwhelm public expectation. He touched on voting machine shenanigans, registration skullduggery, cyber-fuckery, labor union toolery, ballot fraud, and especially China meddling.Internal CIA / FBI docs at the time said that China’s policy around the 2020 US election was to “leverage all domestic and foreign elements” opposed to the President to prevent his re-election. The Intel bunch never sent that memo to the White House. They were too busy pushing fake Russia meddling, fake impeachment, and a fake Covid-19 pandemic. Then...

President Trump spoke to the nation last night about serious problems with American elections. You could watch the speech live on Fox News, Newsmax, C-SPAN, and PBS. ABC, NBC, and CNN refused to air the speech on their live broadcasts, while CBS and MSNBC managed to air just a little bit before abandoning it to spout their own opinions (including what they laughably call “fact checks”). That’s the state of America today. It was a good speech but ended (I thought) weakly. Had the networks (some of which still have a free gig on the public airways) run the speech,...

The declassified records offer a window into a massive voter registration fraud operation in Muskegon, Michigan. Mollie Hemingway was right. The 2020 election was rigged. The Federalist’s editor-in-chief in her 2021 book, Rigged: How the Media, Big Tech, and the Democrats Seized Our Elections, laid out a compelling case that some big corrupting forces used Covid fear to get their man — Joe Biden — elected in 2020. In his address to the nation Thursday evening, President Donald Trump walked through some of the more egregious attacks on election integrity and security in a 2020 election that government bureaucrats absurdly...

DONALD TRUMP: America is back, and doing very well. We still have a major challenge that must be urgently addressed because no country can be great without fair and honest elections. You have to trust your country because if there can be no trust, there can be no greatness. That's very simple. No trust, no greatness. For many years, I have called for bold, swift and decisive action to protect the integrity of America’s elections. Every American deserves to know that when they cast their vote, that vote will be counted accurately in a system—and that is to make that...

Since the changes to American voting procedures during the COVID-19 pandemic—and the disputed 2020 presidential election that culminated in the events on Jan. 6 in Washington—millions of Americans have questioned whether the country’s election system is sufficiently transparent and secure. Whatever one thinks of the events of 2020, restoring public confidence in elections is a pressing national issue. With this in mind, the U.S. House of Representatives recently passed the SAVE Act (Safeguard American Voter Eligibility). The legislation would require documentary proof of U.S. citizenship when registering to vote in federal elections. Applicants would generally be expected to present acceptable...

WASHINGTON, July 1 (Reuters) – U.S. President Donald Trump said on Wednesday that his acting spy chief has wide permission to declassify records, including any tied to the 2020 election, even though his close ally is only at the intelligence helm for a short time. Trump appointed Bill Pulte as acting director ​of national intelligence last month, elevating a political loyalist with no national security experience at a ‌time of war and global tensions. Following a political backlash over his pick, Trump subsequently nominated Jay Clayton, the top U.S. attorney for Manhattan. But he then abruptly postponed Clayton’s confirmation hearing...

JD Vance has refused to stop claiming election fraud over the 2020 presidential election ... even after Bill Maher called him out to his face.Read the video transcriptTrump can't run again, and he'd be a little too exciting for me anyway. So it's either gonna be you or Rubio. Here's my deal breaker for your side, OK. Under Trump, you guys have two outcomes that an election can be either we win or they cheated. That has to stop. And the person who. And that means. The person who has to stop it would be you or Marco. Can you...

A Long Island school clerk overseeing board of education elections tore up ballots and threw them in a dumpster to help her favorite candidate win, a newly revealed internal probe found. Hempstead Union Free School District Clerk April Keys allegedly rigged the May 19 trustee election by smuggling official ballots out of her office and handing absentee ballots to favored candidate Victor Pratt so he could trash them, according to a 51-page petition filed by the district with the state Education Department. Keys could now face criminal charges as the district is looking to overturn Pratt’s razor-thin win. “The Board...

How just 7% of voters, mostly young and white, led Mamdani’s NYC socialist election surge Zo’s red wedding was small, but a bloodbath nonetheless. Just 7% of active voters supported Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s radical ally Darializa Avila Chevalier over establishment Democrat Rep. Adriano Espaillat in Tuesday’s main event primary, data shows. The overall low turnout — roughly 17% of Democratic voters citywide — came as Avila Chevalier and two other Mamdani-backed House primary winners captured a mix of high-earning, young, white and black voters, analysts found. Insiders also credited the Democratic Socialists of America’s formidable field operations for turning out...

California’s political machine has left Republicans with a simple challenge: convince voters that change is worth crossing the aisle for. A very successful businessman—and a major contributor to Democratic Party candidates and causes—once explained to me why he talked, acted, and thought like a Republican but never considered supporting any Republican candidate, ever. “We’ve already got the Republicans,” he told me. This is the transactional essence behind corporate support for Democrats in California, the one-party state. Republicans have no political power, and whenever the Democrats in the state legislature are surprisingly split on a matter of concern to business interests,...

A federal judge has blocked the Trump administration from implementing a voter-screening database that combined citizenship records with Social Security information. The ruling argued the effort violated federal privacy protections and resulted in inaccurate information being shared with states. In a 75-page decision, U.S. District Judge Sparkle Sooknanan halted the administration’s revised SAVE database, a system developed by the Department of Homeland Security as part of an effort to strengthen election integrity and identify non-citizens on voter rolls. “The federal government has knowingly trampled on the privacy rights of American citizens in a manner that threatens the sacred right to...

One of Mike Lindell’s cyber experts bailed on the China hack theory earlier this week and spoke with the media. Why now? Why would he wait until the week of the symposium to bail? Josh Merrritt, aka “Spyder” spoke to the media this week: The cyber expert on the “red team” hired by MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell now says the key data underpinning the theory that China hacked the 2020 election unveiled at the Cyber Symposium is illegitimate. TRENDING: Mike Lindell Opens Thursday Cyber Symposium with SHOCKING Developments: Another Home Raided, Credible Threats, Conference Infiltrated Mr. Lindell said he had...

Federal investigators executed search warrants at the headquarters of a Soros-aligned voter mobilization organization in Ohio as part of what sources described as an ongoing fraud investigation. FBI agents searched the offices of the Ohio Organizing Collaborative on June 11 and conducted interviews with members of the organization across the state, according to reports. Some agents reportedly served subpoenas or sought to seize electronic devices during the operation. Multiple sources familiar with the matter later told CBS News that the federal action was tied to a fraud-related investigation. The Department of Justice declined to discuss the specifics of the case....

In a previous article, I analyzed the big winners and losers of the California primary. I didn’t mention my preferred candidate, Sheriff Chad Bianco, because to me he’s still a winner, even if the rest of the state (and Trump) rejected him. California needed saving, and I believed that the sheriff was just the man to get the job done. I thought Trump’s endorsement wouldn’t matter. I went through 5 minutes of grief after I saw Bianco getting a distant fourth place in the gubernatorial race. I went through the stages of grief fairly quickly, arriving at the place of...

VIDEOIt's not corruption. It's TRADITION! As the host of "Meet The Press" Kristen Welker explains, "That's how they count the votes in California."

In the shadows of downtown Los Angeles, where human suffering piles up in tents and despair, a disturbing pattern has emerged. Homeless residents on Skid Row are coming forward with claims that they were paid small sums of cash to cast ballots for Mayor Karen Bass and Councilwoman Nithya Raman. These allegations, captured in videos and shared with federal authorities, strike at the heart of election integrity in a city already reeling from policy failures that have turned streets into open-air encampments. VIDEO HERE: Skid Row homeless claim they’ve been paid to vote for Karen Bass and Nithya Raman https://t.co/bElx1nmQM2...

California Democrats have rigged another election, and outsider Spencer Pratt has been bumped from the Los Angeles mayoral race. On Election Day, Pratt’s lead over third-place Nithya Raman was so large that she publicly cried over her loss. After a week of mail-in-ballot shenanigans, Raman has surged to secure a coveted spot on the November ballot — a statistical improbability in any jurisdiction familiar with arithmetic and basic ethics. This “come from behind victory” has made it difficult for the usual election-fraud-deniers to pretend that California’s elections are free, fair, legal, or remotely based in reality. I noticed that National...

Can the Morning Joe crew possibly be this oblivious to its hypocrisy? The panel spent Tuesday morning blasting Republicans for raising questions about suspicious vote counting in the Los Angeles mayoral primary — then immediately launched its own sweeping conspiracy theory about how Republicans plan to steal the 2026 midterms. Mika began spinning the anti-GOP conspiracy theory on the 2026 midterm elections: "I think the bigger picture is, there seems to be some sort of preparation going on here. That's just my analysis. But it doesn't feel good looking ahead to the midterms, the way these Republicans are behaving." Get...
