    The thing we were told never happens, happened on Skid Row for 20 years The U.S. Department of Justice announced Monday that a Marina del Rey woman has agreed to plead guilty to a federal charge of paying individuals, including homeless people on Skid Row, to register to vote using false or vague addresses, a scheme prosecutors say spanned approximately 20 years. Court documents state Brenda Lee Brown Armstrong, 64, also known as “Anika,” paid individuals small amounts of cash, cigarettes, or other items to complete voter registration forms, often using her former address or nonspecific locations. She faces one...

    Max Morley, a Democrat seeking to unseat Daniel Grossberg as Kentucky State Representative in the 30th House District, was caught on a home security camera stealing a Grossberg campaign flyer from a voter's mail box. Morley admitted to "a lack of judgment. This isn't acceptable, and it's something I'm deeply sorry for. I apologize to the homeowner. I want one thing to remain clear: voters in HD 30 deserve better than their current representative, and I don't want them to be distracted from the ultimate goal of sending him home." Louisville Democratic Party Vice Chair Rosalind Welch said "I was...

  • California Woman Federally Charged with Paying Individuals, Including Homeless People on L.A.’s Skid Row, to Register to Vote [for 20 Years!]

    A California woman who worked as a longtime signature collector for ballot initiatives has been charged with paying individuals – including homeless people living in the Skid Row area of downtown Los Angeles – to register to vote. “False registrations undermine Americans’ faith in elections – even more so when payoffs are involved,” said Assistant Attorney General Harmeet K. Dhillon of the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division. “This Justice Department is committed to ensuring that all U.S. elections are fair and free from illegal meddling – so that all Americans can accept the results with confidence.” Brenda Lee Brown Armstrong,...

    UPDATE: Georgia State Senator Greg Dolezal has filed an emergency lawsuit to allow poll watchers and State Election Board observers into “the bunker,” where Georgia’s statewide vote totals are received and published. “Denying members of the State Election Board access to the Election Night Reporting Room is outrageous,” Georgia Republican Party Chairman Josh McKoon said, reacting to news of how the election results of this week’s primary election will be aggregated. “BREAKING: Georgia’s 2026 election results will be aggregated on Election Night by the secretary of state from a ‘secret emergency bunker’ which is off-limits to candidates, the public and...
  • James Talarico's chances against Cornyn vs. Paxton in Texas—New poll

    Newsweek via MSN ^ | May 18, 2026 | Andrew Stanton
    Democrat James Talarico is in striking distance of flipping Texas, according to a new poll of the Lone Star State’s 2026 Senate race released ahead of the Republican runoff between Senator John Cornyn and Attorney General Ken Paxton. Democrats believe a favorable national environment, a weakened GOP nominee and reversion among Hispanic and Latino voters that shifted rightward in 2024 could create a perfect storm for them to flip Texas in the midterm elections. Texas has been a site of Democratic ambitions for several election cycles, but Republicans have held onto their iron grip of the state. However, the new...

    Finally, after years of gaslighting, lawfare, and corrupt media cover-ups, a top Trump DOJ official has stepped up and dropped the hammer on the biggest political crime in American history. Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche joined Maria Bartiromo on Sunday Morning Futures and delivered a NUCLEAR truth bomb that Democrats, the fake news media, and the deep state have been desperately trying to bury for six long years. When Bartiromo pressed him on President Trump’s repeated claims that the 2020 election was rigged, Blanche didn’t mince words. Blanche confirmed that the DOJ is now running multiple criminal investigations into the...
  • Mother Jones, Ro Khanna, and Code Pink? Stephen Miller Blasts Thomas Massie's Bizarre Left-Wing Love-In

    Stephen Miller, Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy and Homeland Security Advisor for President Trump, is very confused about some of Thomas Massie's latest endorsements. First there was the endorsement from radical Democrat Ro Khanna. "Khanna is among the most radically liberal anti-MAGA extremists to be found in all of Congress. This is the equivalent of being endorsed by Rachel Maddow." "Mother Jones also endorsing Massie. This is like being endorsed by Pravda." "Don’t forget CodePink!"

    Rubio is like the baseball team that scraps for every run and creates openings while Vance seems to be waiting for President Trump to hit a three-run homer to bring him in. Rubio is clearly leading Trump among Latinos, winning converts for him in a way Vance is failing to do. He has used his position as secretary of state to polish his image. Rubio has a charisma edge while Vance seems to be a stolid follower in Trump's wake.

    The Senate impeachment trial vote was on February 13th 2021. Senator Bill Cassidy voted to convict (i.e. remove from office) a man who was ALREADY out of office. Because the purpose of that vote was to prevent Donald Trump from ever holding office again. So that all the policies that have been put into place, would never have been put into place. Can't wait to see this anti-conservative "Republican" senator be defeated!

    Colorado's Dem Governor Polis commutes ex-election clerk Tina Peters' sentence after Trump pressure Peters issued a statement through her attorney thanking Polis and apologizing. “Five years ago I misled the Secretary of State when allowing a person to gain access to county voting equipment. That was wrong,” Peters said. “I have learned and grown during my time in prison and going forward I will make sure that my actions always follow the law, and I will avoid the mistakes of the past.”
  • Last Republican US Senator to Lose a Primary: Richard Lugar, 2012

    After Mike Lee defeated Bob Bennett in Utah in 2010 and then Richard Lugar was defeated in 2012, Mitch McConnell was pissed. He thereafter ensured that EVERY Republican incumbent, no matter how awful, was to be protected from removal by fellow Republican. McConnell and the NRSC would choose which Republicans sat in the Senate, not the infernal people. Republican senators could either leave the Senate on their own, or be defeated by a Democrat. Those were the ONLY two options. For fourteen years, in cycle after cycle, not a single Republican incumbent has been defeated in a primary. This month...

    Colorado Gov. Jared Polis on Friday cut former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters’ nine-year prison sentence in half, and ordered the 70-year-old, who has become a national martyr for election conspiracy theorists, to be released on parole June 1. Peters’ sentence for orchestrating a security breach of her county’s election system in 2021 in a failed attempt to uncover voter fraud is now four years and four and a half months under a clemency order issued by the governor. “She, because of her incorrect and unpopular speech, got an unduly harsh sentence,” Polis said Friday in an interview with The...
