Kari Lake had her election stolen again. After the inauguration, President Trump should have his new Attorney General revisit this fraudulent result.

Amazing how so many so called republicans are so eager to automatically bend over to the Communist Death Democrats as they blatantly steal a Senate election. Sickening. This writer is a glaring example of the surrender monkey wing of the Republican Party. This Senate seat is being stolen in plain site.

How many car trunks did they have to search to find the votes to count and recount to 'defeat' Lake? I don't trust the criminals running Maricopa County elections at all.

The guy who was counting is a McCain loser and wanted to “make Kari Lake’s life miserable” (direct quote) and “despises MAGA” (direct quote). Don’t believe this for a second. It was also only close because Cornyn and McConnell spent exactly zero dollars for Lake, due to the fact they would rather have a Democrat than a conservative Republican that would vote for a different leader.

Republican control the Senate with 53 seats. Democrats have 46. One seat open. Guessing that is Vance's seat in Ohio. The Arizona race was close enough for fraud to decide it. House control is still up in the air. There appear to be 21 seats that haven't been called. If I am reading things correctly, ten of those seats are in California, three are in Arizona, and the other 8 are spread across the country. Republicans need 5 seats for control, Democrats need 16. California has so far counted 11.7 million ballots with 66% counted. Does that mean California has over 5 million ballots to be counted? Good grief! Polls closed over 4 days ago! Can't they count? No other big state had this problem. The state to watch is California. The steal is still underway folks. This time they are trying to steal the House. The other thing they are trying to steal is the popular vote. Trump at 74.6 million, Harris is now at 70.9 million. The gap continues to narrow. Democrats would love to claim they won the election because they won the popular vote.

I'm pretty sure President Trump has already said if people are committing ballot fraud, we will find you and we will prosecute you. President Trump has an exemplary record on doing exactly what he campaigned on, so I fully expect him to follow through on this one. We all know the Enemedia and Demonrat politicians (one and the same) are going to squeal like the bunch of stuck pigs they are, but this has to happen.

Since when was a “popular vote” ever counted in this country. We ate a representative republic. Never have we been a democracy as some people are stating. How is this popular vote counted. PRESIDENT Trump received more votes total then heels up Harris. I would think that would be because he is more popular than harris. In fact Biden claimed his 81 million “votes” were because he was more popular. And. Just where are all the lawyers and people that were stopping the cheat in the states for the presidency. Seems republicans abandoned Kari Lake. Why. Hopefully PRESIDENT Trump has a job for her in Washington. Like maybe cupi dolls job. Kari does have experience with the Edina. Knows exactly how they “operate”

In Arizona President Trump got 185,000 votes MORE than Harris, yet Kari Lake got 44,000 FEWER votes than the Democrat. We are supposed to believe that many people split their vote. Given the record of Arizona elections, I don't.

The same thing happened here in NV. Sam Brown was leading Wednesday morning until Jacky Rosen started getting most of the late votes, which can be counted 4 days after the election. Also, Trump beat Harris convincingly, but all of our Democrat candidates won everything down ballot, so our state legislature is still pretty much run by the Dems. In two years, when we finally have to show ID, this may stop.

Five mental health professionals, some of whom already accused Donald Trump of being “dangerous,” prepared a risk assessment for New York state Judge Juan Merchan to consider in his July 11 sentencing decision on Trump, according to forensic psychiatrist Dr. Bandy X. Lee, a longtime critic of the former president. It isn’t clear whether all five are psychiatrists or may have other training. Their risk assessment could be a factor in the severity of Merchan’s sentence for Trump in Manhattan Criminal Court, which could be up to 20 years in prison for all 34 felony counts on which he was convicted last month.

NASA scrapped its Boeing Starliner launch Saturday, some three minutes before it was meant to begin. Saturday was the second attempt at the launch after the May 6 event was postponed just two hours before it was scheduled. The goal is to get the Starliner onto the International Space Station for a one-week stay. Then, it will return to Earth and certify its end-to-end capabilities. This time, NASA found one of its four computers operating the launch was lagging behind the others. As all four computers are meant to perform the same function — a delay in one signals a problem.

Chattanooga, Tennessee, is known as “Gig City,” not for its many live music venues, but for its role as the first city in the Western Hemisphere to offer 1 gigabit-per-second fiber internet service to residents and businesses, an honor that it claimed in 2010. In 2024, Chattanooga has come to be representative of a different movement—the labor movement in the South. An overwhelming vote by the city’s Volkswagen employees on April 19 to join the United Auto Workers (UAW) union was the first crack in a decades-long barrier holding back the labor movement south of the Mason-Dixon Line. Until now, the Chattanooga facility has been the only non-union Volkswagen plant worldwide.

In the late 1940s, Supreme Court Justice Hugo L. Black, in the case of Everson v. United States, took a quote from a letter written by Thomas Jefferson out of context and insisted that the wall of separation between church and state “should be high and impregnable.” Despite some variability, this position became the basis for the Court’s interpretation of the separation of church and state which led to the banning of prayer and Bible reading in the public schools at the beginning of the 1960s. Separation of church and state means (1) that taxes should not be used to support an official national church (denomination) of Christianity,
