What's Happening in California's Elections
Is a Disgrace
Posted By: Imright, 3/14/2024 4:05:45 PM
It’s been over a week, and California still hasn’t counted all the ballots from its March 5 primaries. As of 12:45 PM today, it had just reached 90 percent. That’s ridiculous. It’s not just conservatives who are making these observations; progressive commentators have been lobbing criticism while mocking their side’s knee-jerk reactions concerning election integrity. You know the rule: if you criticize any aspect of American elections, liberals brand you an election denier.

ALEXANDRIA, VIRGINIA – Trump Campaign National press secretary Karoline Leavitt declared Friday that the Republican Party “is the party of women” at the National Federation of Republican Women’s (NFRW) Spring 2024 Board Meeting.
While delivering the keynote address, Leavitt called out President Joe Biden, Democrats, and their “stenographers” in the mainstream media, who so often claim the Democrat Party to be women’s champion.“I’m so sick of hearing all of them say, ‘The Democrat party is the party of women.’ That is false. The Grand Old Party, the Republican Party, is the party of women,” Leavitt said, drawing thunderous applause from a packed conference room of attendees at the NFRW’s luncheon.

There’s nothing unprecedented about foreign billionaires – in many cases from Arabian kingdoms such as Qatar, the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia – to own relevant and historical real estate, as well as university facilities, think tanks and even beloved sports teams.
But apparently, newspapers are a no-go.
An investment coming from the UAE has thrown British politicians, media and even intelligence officials into a frenzy.
The UK government has revealed its plans to stop foreign states from owning newspapers. This will potentially give ministers the power to block Abu Dhabi-backed RedBird IMI’s bid to buy the traditional British paper
It's official: Democratic Rep. Colin Allred and Republican Sen. Ted Cruz will face each other in November for the U.S. Senate race in Texas as Cruz runs for reelection. Allred has been regarded by some as a moderate on several issues as he seeks higher office, though that doesn't turn out to be the case. Earlier this week, as Madeline covered, Reps. Henry Cuellar (D-TX) and Tom Suozzi (D-NY) launched the task force known as Democrats for Border Security, with a press conference taking place on Tuesday. While Cuellar claimed the members are "urging Congress to work together on legislation to secure the border," it turned out to be more
Kari Lake and Mark Finchem appealed their lawsuit to ban the use of electronic voting machines to the United States Supreme Court on Thursday.
This comes after the 2022 election, where 60% of the voting machines were reportedly programmed to fail on election day, causing mass voter disenfranchisement and up to four-hour-long lines for Republican in-person voters.
The filing includes “new allegations,” some of which were previously mentioned in Kari Lake’s lawsuit to overturn the stolen election, including:
First, Maricopa did not conduct the required L&A testing, on which the district court relied to find the risk of election interference speculative.
Second,
Former Vice President Mike Pence, who served under former President Donald Trump, said Friday he would not endorse the former president for the 2024 election.
The former vice president announced the news during an interview with Fox News host Martha MacCallum.
'It should come as no surprise that I will not be endorsing Donald Trump this year,' Pence said. Pence said he was proud of the work the Trump administration did during their first term but said there were 'profound differences' between him and the former president.
Former President Donald Trump's legal team says the fight is not over after the decision Fulton County DA Fani Willis will be allowed to stay on the Trump election interference case in Georgia as long as she cuts ties with prosecutor Nathan Wade.
The ex-president's lead defense counsel on the case, Steve Sadow, released a statement on the judge's decision, saying they 'believe that it did not afford appropriate significance to the prosecutorial misconduct of Willis and Wade.'
It goes on to list 'financial benefits, testifying untruthfully about when their personal relationship began, as well as Willis’ extrajudicial MLK “church speech,”

Despotism created the remand stretch in prison while waiting for trial. A de facto presumption of guilt, this was French law until the Napoleonic Criminal Code, which outlawed such practices. Peter Navarro has been remanded to prison pending appeal. President Biden’s appointee, Judge Amit Priyavadan Mehta, denied Navarro’s request to stay out of prison during appeal.
Navarro was ordered to report to a Miami federal prison by 2 pm Tuesday, March 19, 2024. He commented:
“United States v. Peter Navarro is a landmark constitutional case that will eventually determine whether the constitutional separation of powers is preserved, whether executive privilege
President Joe Biden brandished a notecard complete with a pronunciation guide Friday even on a subject dear to his heart – a St. Patrick's Day meeting with the Irish Prime Minister, called the 'Taoiseach'.
Biden, who has taken heat for his use of notecards in the past, didn't hide his cheat sheet during the televised greeting in the Oval Office.
'Taoiseach, welcome back to the Oval office,' Biden said sitting alongside his guest Friday while holding his notecard in front of his unlit fireplace, which was fronted by a bowl of shamrock.

Embattled Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis can stay on and prosecute the election interference case against former president Donald Trump and his co-defendants for allegedly trying to overturn the results of the 2020 election — if special prosecutor Nathan Wade steps aside, a judge ruled Friday.
Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee issued the decision early Friday, following two days of testimony from Willis, Wade and others close to them. In the decision he wrote: “The prosecution of this case cannot proceed until the State selects one of two options.

McAfee Splits the Fani Baby?

Profiles in Courage, it ain't. (snip) So, if I have this right, Fulton County Judge Scott McAfee decided to pull a James Comey, Robert Mueller, and Robert Hur:
Write a ruling saying Fani Willis and Nathan Wade are guilty as hell, have no ethics, and aren't good role models....BUT Fani can stay (snip) The problem with splitting the baby is that the baby dies. That seems to be what happened here in McAfee's attempt to be Solomonic. If he wanted Fani Willis to remain in charge of the case, he needed to exonerate her from all of these issues.

During an interview with Bloomberg on Thursday, White House National Economic Council Deputy Director Daniel Hornung stated that “our progress on inflation does continue,” but “we’ve expected some seasonality in January and February. We didn’t expect the progress to continue on a straight line.”
Hornung said, [relevant remarks begin around 3:30] “I won’t comment on monetary policy and the Federal Reserve. I think what I can say, if you take a step back, our progress on inflation does continue, down from a peak of 9% to the 3% range. Always, I think, we’ve expected some seasonality in January and February. We didn’t expect the progress to continue on a straight line.
Vice President Kamala Harris made history when she became what is believed to be the first president or vice president to visit an abortion clinic on Thursday as the fight over abortion rights has been front and center since the overturning of Roe v Wade.
Harris met with abortion providers and staff at a Planned Parenthood clinic in Minneapolis, Minnesota as part of a nationwide tour she has been on after the landmark decision was struck down in 2022.
The vice president has been a fierce defender of abortion rights within the Biden administration as the issue has proven to be a strong motivator for voters and
The Biden administration's student loan bankruptcy policy is making it easier for borrowers to walk away from their debt, experts say.
It was previously very difficult for Americans to part from their debt in court in a regular bankruptcy proceeding, but new rules are reportedly making this easier.
'We have gotten forgiveness for a number of clients under the new bankruptcy changes,' Malissa Giles, a consumer bankruptcy lawyer in Virginia, told CNBC.'The discharge is life changing for them and their families.'
At the end of 2022, a new process for discharging student debt in the event of bankruptcy was introduced by the Department of Justice and the Department of Education.
The Chinese operative, who was Rep. Eric Swalwell's (D-CA) personal companion and staffer, broke cover in an X-post of her sitting with a Global Times reporter nearly 10 years after her abrupt exit from the United States—shortly after the FBI warned Swalwell she was a foreign agent. “I had lunch with this lady today.
