Maine could be the first state to withdraw from the compact aimed at abolishing the Electoral College. In a stunning reversal of last year's misguided attempt to overthrow the Electoral College, Maine’s House of Representatives recently voted to withdraw the state from the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact (NPVIC). Three Democrats and two Independents joined Republicans in the vote for withdrawal. The NPVIC is an agreement among member states and the District of Columbia to award their electoral votes to the presidential candidate who wins the national popular vote once states with a majority of electoral votes join. Democrats created...

Thanks to President Trump, Democrats will have a more challenging time stealing elections from Republican candidates in general elections. As TGP readers know, the last three elections (from 2020-2024) were ridden by rampant examples of election fraud perpetrated by the Democratic Party. In addition to Trump, several conservative candidates have alleged the fraud was so massive it cost them winnable elections. Back in August of last year, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton got honest about the Democrat Party’s attempts to steal the US elections in 2020 and 2024. He also expects Democrats will again attempt election fraud on a massive...

Vetting the Candidates Have you ever had Election Day creep up on you and feel flat footed when you don't know who is on the ballot (other than a name) and what they stand for in terms of public policy? Have you noticed there are people who have attained to high public office and use their voice to advocate for violence in the streets? (Maxine Waters and Hakim Jeffries come to mind of late.) Did you know that oaths of office are legally binding, and that to break the oath by advocating policies and actions diametrically opposed to the letter...

After suffering alarming spikes in violent crime, some cities are now reporting better news. Washington, D.C., is reporting a 35% decrease in violent crime for 2024. That’s after a 39% increase in crime in 2023 and the most murders in 25 years. But how likely are we to get at the truth when it comes to crime statistics? Questions were raised about possible manipulation of the number when the FBI released its annual crime data in 2023, going into the election year. The statistics showed a 2.1% decrease in violent crime in 2022 under the Biden administration. To many, the...

Two years ago my 9 year old daughter caught me moving the “Elf on the Shelf” around. So I told her the truth that it has been me. But I asked her would you rather not known the truth and continue to have daddy move the elf? She was thoughtful. Now 2 years later we spent Christmas out of the country and it was too difficult to set up presents for the favorite daughter. So I told Santa could not find us and we’d have to work it out after Christmas. Now it is after Christmas and she’s asking. I...

Despite Trump’s victory, there are still gaps in election law ripe for abuse by bad actors seeking to disrupt the electoral process.Donald Trump may have won the 2024 presidential contest, but the road to securing America’s elections remains a long one. Despite the former and future president’s resounding victory over Kamala Harris, there are still gaps in federal election law ripe for abuse by bad actors seeking to disrupt the electoral process. With Trump set to return to the White House and Republicans poised to control both chambers of Congress, fixing these loopholes and shoring up integrity within the system...

“Here are 82,345 ballot IDs, cast in the great state of (Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Arizona, Nevada, Michigan, pick one) each of which has come from an address that an official U.S. Government database says is ineligible. This election is being stolen!” That should have been the narrative on November 2 or 3, days before the steal! That narrative is so simple, so compelling, nobody would dare to screw Sam Brown and Kari Lake after votes are cast - because they proved IN ADVANCE- there were more than enough bullshit ballots in the system to challenge the election. You will notice none...

The incoming Trump administration must make election integrity a top priority through federal legislation or persuading states to pass reforms.Four years ago, I asserted that we can “never again” allow an election like 2020 to happen. I’m back to say that despite Trump’s near landslide, America’s election system is still broken.And the time to fix it is immediately, while President Trump has the wind at his back with a Republican Congress and the public on his side.You most clearly see a broken election system when the margins are extremely tight. We saw it in 2020 when approximately 40,000 votes in...

MSNBC once again beat CNN in the ratings game, but for all the wrong reasons. New Nielsen ratings show the liberal network has lost more than half of its primetime audience since President-elect Donald Trump’s victory last week, a sea change that signals its viewers are discouraged and tired of the spin. Fox News reported that MSNBC saw a 54% ratings drop after averaging 1.1 million primetime viewers for most of October. That number stood at 736,000 on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday of last week. The change comes as Fox News’s viewership climbed 61% in the same three-day period, a...

Normally the USPS would be able to confirm the number of mail-in ballots sent to election officials to ensure fraudulent ballots aren't inserted into the election. Bypassing the central scanning facilities, as the directive requires, means there will be NO way to verify the numbers reported by local election authorities match the numbers reported by the USPS.

An operational update on Election Integrity: The RNC, our state parties and legal teams remain fully engaged in every state where votes are still being counted — including Arizona, Maine, Nevada and Pennsylvania. We will continue to aggressively protect the vote and defend every Republican candidate throughout vote counting, canvassing, and tabulation. We will be on the ground until all votes are counted and finalized. Protect the Vote! ... Then how did Sam Brown lose his seat? Bob Casey won’t concede. Kari Lake is being robbed again. ... Well you definitely let go of Michigan. Because they stole the Senate...

Proposed Amendment 28 of the United States Constitution.Preamble: Whereas, the United States of America operates as a Republic and is governed by representatives who are elected by the people, it is therefore vital that all levels Government insure the integrity of all elections by these means: 1. ensuring that only eligible citizen voters participate; 2. ensuring that all eligible citizen voters have exactly one opportunity to participate in each election; and 3. ensuring the results reflect the intentions of the electorate to the highest accuracy possible. Section 1: The ability to vote in any state or Federal elections is a...

The Republican National Committee and the Trump campaign raised concerns to Pennsylvania's secretary of the commonwealth over "voter suppression" at early voting polling locations as a Trump supporter was arrested for telling voters to stay in line to vote. RNC Chairman Michael Whatley shared a video on X on Monday of Pennsylvania GOP State Committeewoman Val Biancaniello repeatedly telling voters, “[d]o not get out of line,” as she was being arrested at an early voting polling location in Delaware County. "A supporter of President Trump's was arrested today for encouraging people to stay in the early voting line and cast...

If you go to YouTube and type in "Joe Rogan Trump original interview", the original 3 hour interview does NOT come up. Instead a bunch of clips show up from left wing hacks. Tried it twice and got the same results each time.

We should be so thankful for vigilant election officials that are trying to do a great job of protecting the integrity of our system. The incidents that I am about to share with you are deeply disturbing, but it is also encouraging that these crimes are being caught. We should all be able to agree that the American people should be able to choose who they want in 2024. No matter which side wins or which side loses, the will of the American people should be respected. Sadly, there are those that wish to interfere in that process, and those...

A sensational report in The Wall Street Journal implies that questioning the integrity of our elections is tantamount to domestic terrorism. Baloney!If Americans have questions and concerns about how our elections are administered and how ballots are tabulated, does that make them “election deniers,” conspiracy theorists, threats to democracy?The Wall Street Journal seems to think so. In a long news report published over the weekend headlined, “‘It Feels Very Dystopian.’ Republican County Officials Brace for Election Deniers—Again,” the Journal repeatedly characterized those who think the 2020 election was stolen, rigged, or less-than-secure as “election deniers,” and stopped just short of...

In a world reeling from the consequences of the PSYOP-19 scamdemic, where trust in institutions is at best hanging by a thread, a growing body of evidence has emerged that shatters the very foundations of medical integrity. This is not hyperbole, this is a wake-up call. The supposed “failure” of ivermectin, a repurposed Nobel Prize winning drug that could have saved millions of lives during the height of the “pandemic,” has now been exposed as the result of a meticulously orchestrated Medical Industrial Complex campaign of deceit, fraud. and, ultimately, mass murder. There is a war being actively waged against...

The Republican National Committee (RNC) filed suit against the Detroit, Michigan Election Commission in August, arguing that they violated the law by hiring over seven times more Democratic poll workers than Republicans for the 2024 election.Michigan is a swing state, and its 15 electoral votes are critical to the presidential race, so every vote counts. RealClearPolitics shows an extremely tight contest, with Trump currently up by a mere point nine.The RNC announced in an email Friday that they have prevailed in the matter:The RNC, Michigan GOP, and chairs of Wayne County Republican committee have secured a major victory for election...

Michigan’s Democrat-controlled Senate passed a package of four DIRTY election bills yesterday, referred to as the “State Voting Rights Act.” The bills, now heading to the Democrat-controlled House, have stirred controversy among critics asserting they represent a significant state government takeover of elections and threaten election integrity on a number of fronts, not the least of which is the special treatment afforded to “protected classes” of people. In addition, Senate Bills 401 through 404 shift control of elections from the legislature to the state’s courts and executive branch, giving the secretary of state unprecedented power over local governments. For example,...
