We have all heard it many times. According to “journalists,” claims made by President Trump regarding election cheating are “unfounded,” “disproven,” and/or “debunked.” However, irrefutable evidence of large-scale 2020 election fraud exists.
On Thursday night, the president outlined four specific areas of election concern. I’d like to address one of them: corrupt Michigan voter registrations in the 2020 election. Trump said, “Even when significant evidence of fraud has been detected, it has been buried and covered up.”
The president is correct: Widespread evidence of Michigan fraud was detected before the 2020 election. After it was discovered and reviewed by the FBI, it was concealed by the Biden DOJ.
Candidates backed by the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) keep racking up primary victories, and skeptics and fans alike are struggling to determine what the organization actually believes. President Donald Trump says they are “communists.” (Snip)Among the DSA’s core aims are ending the presidency and Supreme Court. Abolishing prisons. Universal free housing. The elimination of all debt.
I was a member of the DSA from the 2010s until 2022. During that time, I witnessed a rise in extremism, ranging from an eagerness to collaborate with Leninist groups to a growing animosity toward the U.S. and the West. My final departure was prompted by a DSA statement that attributed Russia’s aggression
Well, Democrats in Maine really do have some special candidates to choose from. It took months but they finally got rid of Graham Platner after women came forward and accused him of abusive behavior and rape. Democrats finally decided that was a bad look and now they've had to rush to replace him with someone more agreeable. As of this weekend it seems clear that person is Troy Jackson.
Troy Jackson has effectively secured the Democratic nomination in the crucial Maine Senate race, winning the support of a majority of the state delegates who will officially nominate a candidate next weekend.
The Boasberg boomerang
replies
Sometimes a swamp critter acts too smart for his own good. And so it goes with the Dishonorable Judge Jimmy the Geek Boasberg, who mocked the Department of Justice in a hearing on March 21, 2025, in which the ACLU claimed that the government violated a previous order by Boasberg not to deport 100 members of the Venezuelan gang TdA.
As chief DC district judge, Boasberg took the case himself on a Saturday night despite (because of) his daughter being a lawyer and advocate for Partners for Justice, a pro-immigration group that wants to protect criminal illegal aliens (as the ACLU was doing) from deportation. Its founder spoke against Laken
Hawaii’s most recent Second Amendment defeat at the U.S. Supreme Court was both a major victory for the right to bear arms and entirely predictable.
Since the court’s landmark decision four years ago in New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen, Hawaii’s anti-gun lawmakers had been trying to accomplish what Bruen had already forbidden: preventing ordinary, law-abiding citizens from carrying a firearm in public for self-defense.
Over the past week, the Iranian regime has demonstrated once again that its ambitions extend far beyond destroying Israel.
It is a war against the entire Middle East and, ultimately, against the United States and the West.
Tehran then launched missiles and drones not only against US assets but also against infrastructure in Arab countries across the Gulf, in addition to Jordan, presumably so they would pressure US President Donald J. Trump to call off US firepower and return instead to waste-of-time negotiations for a waste-of-time "deal" that Iran would not honor in the first place.

When the Biden Justice Department announced that Chinese hackers had gotten their hands on Great Britain's publicly available voter files in 2024, American news media clamored with stories claiming it was a "dangerous" breach. The same, too, when U.S. officials announced Russia and Iran had hacked small numbers of U.S. voter files in 2020 and 2021.
The reason was simple: U.S. intelligence agencies believe the targeting and acquisition of voter registration files is an act of election interference. “Election interference is a subset of election influence targeted at the technical aspects of the election, including voter registration, casting and counting of ballots and reporting of results,"
Senate Homeland Security Chairman Rand Paul released new documents Monday that he said revealed the FBI stopped Customs and Border Patrol from searching and questioning Peter Daszak upon his return to the United States from China.
The latest documents come just over a week before former National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Director Dr. Anthony Fauci is set to testify in front his panel on whether he lied to Congress during the pandemic about whether his office had funded gain-of-function research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology in China.
The State Department on Monday warned that the Democratic Socialists of America serves as a willing vector of Cuban Communist influence in the United States, bolstered by a network of organizations tied to Cuban intelligence.
In a new report released on Monday detailing Cuba’s decades-long effort to “make the revolution” in the United States, the State Department highlights the DSA’s deep connections to organizations connected to Cuban intelligence, including at least one sanctioned by the U.S. government. These connections include the organization’s public membership in the National Network —
The U.S. and Iran are back to bombing every day in a bid to control the Strait of Hormuz. And neither is backing down, showing the limitations of President Donald Trump’s reliance on escalating airstrikes to bend Tehran to his will.
While the Trump administration says it is open to diplomacy, Iran so far has refused to loosen its grip over the crucial oil shipping corridor in the Persian Gulf. It is raising questions about the strategy for the next phase of the conflict as intensifying attacks have collapsed an interim ceasefire deal, left additional American troops dead and sent U.S. gasoline prices back up —
In the insular world of Maine politics, it’s known as the “water bottle incident.” The moment happened some five years ago when then-state Senate president Troy Jackson clashed with fellow Democrats during a private meeting inside the state capitol. Jackson, a gruff former logger who has now catapulted into position as the state’s likely Democratic nominee for US Senate, grew so angry with one female lawmaker that he hurled a plastic water bottle. (Snip) The water bottle clash, which was first reported by the Washington Post, was not a one-off for a lawmaker also known for pounding on desks, storming
Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison (D) is facing some heat after a video clip from a recent campaign event circulated on X, showing him urging supporters to mobilize a large group of people who were not naturalized citizens during the last election cycle.
In the footage, posted by the Republican National Committee’s (RNC) research account, Ellison addressed a crowd at a campaign event on Monday for progressive Sen. candidate and current Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan (D-MN).
His comments appear to be an admission that Democrats are relying on very newly eligible voters—including recent
For more than a decade, the state of Alaska has been trying to permanently forfeit Ken Jouppi’s $95,000 airplane after he transported a passenger carrying a six-pack of beer. Today, the U.S. Supreme Court agreed to decide whether it can. For decades, Ken flew his Cessna across the Alaskan wilderness, shuttling the locals. Then, in 2012, state troopers found some Budweiser tucked in a passenger’s luggage. Ken and the passenger were charged with misdemeanors, fined $1,500 and sentenced to three days in jail. But that wasn’t enough for Alaska. For the past 14 years, the state has fought to take Ken’s plane too, as additional punishment for a passenger’s beer.
A man whom authorities describe as an anti-government extremist set fire Monday morning to the front of New York’s 26 Federal Plaza, which houses several federal agencies, including Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the FBI.
The suspect, 43-year-old Army veteran Andrew Arrabaca, poured gasoline on the stairs leading to the building’s employee entrance before setting fire to it.//snip//In his post-arrest interview, Arrabaca admitted to targeting the building and said he was willing to hurt — even kill — federal employees and citizens who were by the building at the time of his attack.
Trinity College in Hartford, Connecticut, will offer students the opportunity to study the “white gaze” next spring in order to undermine “white supremacy and racial capitalism.” (snip)
Nadja Eisenberg-Guyot, an assistant professor of anthropology, is teaching “Unsettling the White Gaze.”
Eisenberg-Guyot’s profile describes the scholar as a “white, disabled, trans anthropologist whose work focuses on how criminalized people who use drugs envision and experiment with abolitionist horizons of transformation, healing, self-determination, and solidarity beyond incarceration and forced-cure.”
The source of the nation’s worst cyclosporiasis outbreak remains a mystery after the U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced it discovered a false positive over the weekend.
Initially, the FDA said a lettuce sample supplied by Taylor Farms de Mexico, which is headquartered in Salinas, tested positive for the parasite cyclospora on July 18. However, FDA laboratory scientists then reviewed the sample to confirm the finding. They “have concluded that the finding does not represent true amplification and should be considered a false positive,” the FDA said in an update on Sunday. Currently, there are “no confirmed positive sample results” among products tested for cyclospora.
An armed maniac lit an “incendiary device” Monday morning outside a building in Lower Manhattan Monday morning that houses federal immigration offices and courts, officials and law enforcement sources said.
The terrorism task force was investigating the incident, including probing whether it was an anti-ICE attack, according to the sources. The suspect, a man identified by sources as a 43-year-old military veteran from Poughkeepsie, was taken into custody. He was not immediately charged.
A California city chief allegedly locked herself inside the wheelhouse of a “random” 75-foot yacht and repeatedly sounded its horn before two bottles of booze were found empty in a bizarre early-morning episode ending with her arrest. Elaine Forbes, 53, who started as Sausalito’s city manager just three weeks ago, was allegedly discovered aboard the Lisa Marie early Saturday after Captain Bill Aubrey heard its horn blaring shortly after 5:30 a.m., The San Francisco Standard reported. Forbes’ family has since said she has been experiencing a “mental health crisis” and urged the public not to “rush to judgment” as more details emerge about the stunning incident.
One man was killed and four others were hurt in the second mass shooting in Minneapolis in less than 24 hours, police said. According to the Minneapolis Police Department, "gunfire erupted outside a business in the 1800 block of Nicollet Avenue" around 8:20 p.m. Sunday. (Snip) Around 12:30 a.m. Sunday, nine people were shot outside a nightclub in Minneapolis' Uptown neighborhood. Two were seriously injured, but are expected to survive, according to police. No arrests have been made. Police are investigating both shootings, but said there is no known connection between the two. Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey called
My first day in El Salvador coincided with the Day of the Faithful Departed, when families gathered to remember loved ones lost — a ritual familiar to everyone but the wide-eyed toddlers after generations of violence. (Snip) I headed to a nearby cemetery. Families sat beside graves, sharing meals with the dead or repainting tombs in bright colors, until I came upon a wall of armed security. Behind it, silently paying his respects, stood President Nayib Bukele.
Bukele remains controversial abroad over alleged human rights abuses, the suspension of due process, and the imprisonment of roughly one percent of the population. But nearly every Salvadoran I met adored him.
A newly declassified CIA report says the Venezuelan government “could have” used voting machines to rig elections. President Donald Trump declassified a series of documents and reports related to election integrity on July 16, including a “CIA Note” entitled, “Summary of Select Intelligence Reporting From 2004-2020 on Venezuela’s Electronic Voting Manipulation Capabilities.”The note says that between 2004 and 2020, “intelligence established that Venezuelan government officials developed sustained interest and likely some capability in manipulating electronic voting systems, including Smartmatic technology, to influence electoral outcomes in Venezuela.”
Well, right on cue, there’s a disturbing new trend exploding online, and once again, innocent people are being turned into props for someone else’s internet stardom and clicks.In this clip, you’ll see a black teen on a bicycle charging directly at innocent pedestrians while popping wheelies. He came straight at the person, and at the very last second, he swerved away. The goal for this kid is to scare the living daylights out of unsuspecting people in order to get a dramatic reaction on camera.
There is absolutely nothing democratic within the political schemes of the communists, leftists and Nazis’. Just as Ukraine is led by an unelected authoritarian under the guise of the ‘new democratic norms’; just as Kamala Harris was installed as a presidential nominee under those same anti-democracy norms; so too is U.K Prime Minister Andy Burnham now installed without any election by the British citizensThe unelected monarch, King Charles, appoints the unelected Prime Minister, Andy Burnham, and the first pledge of the unelected leader is a promise to make life better for the people who are denied a voice in his agenda.
Nick Shirley, the young man who has been putting “professional” journalists to shame with his on-site reporting on rampant Medicaid fraud, released another video exposing schemes in New York, these involving senior centers for elderly Koreans and Chinese.
One that he visited, an adult day care in Flushing, claims to have nearly 8,000 members, for which it bills Medicaid $1,600 each. But even an employee admits that the number is wildly inflated. Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services Administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz joined Shirley. [snip] But not all government fraud is illegal. In fact, we’d say that legal fraud is an even bigger scam than what Shirley is uncovering.
