Nashville mayor crying that undocumented voters being arrested.
In case you haven’t heard yet,the mayor of Nashville is all upset that over 100 illegals were arrested. Guess he’s worried about his next election. So what did he do?

Nashville’s Democrat Mayor Freddie O’Connell signed an executive order (EO) that would require the city’s police department to inform his “Office of New Americans” about any planned Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) actions in the city.

Just in case the mayor missed it, American citizens aren’t being arrested. ICE using traffic stops. The undocumented, Illegals are. Just after the traffic stops, O’Connell called ICE “terrorists” and claimed that illegal aliens are Nashville “citizens.”

Did it take her ten years to finish law school? Criminal given a pass.

A person who works for Governor Waltz according to Minnesota law committed six felonies that caused $20,000 dollars in damages. And this person was not charged.

MINNEAPOLIS (FOX 9) – The Hennepin County Attorney’s Office (HCAO) said Monday it will not seek criminal charges against 33-year-old Dylan Adams, who allegedly vandalized at least six Tesla vehicles, causing $20,000 in damage.

Statement from the police who were upset.

“The Minneapolis Police Department did its job. It identified and investigated a crime trend, identified, and arrested a suspect, and presented a case file to the Hennepin County Attorney Office for consideration of charges. This case impacted at least six different victims and totaled over $20,000 in damages. Any frustration related to the charging decision of the Hennepin County Attorney should be directed solely at her office. Our investigators are always frustrated when the cases they poured their hearts into are declined. In my experience, the victims in these cases often feel the same.”

What’s going on in Minnesota?

After the 2024 state elections the race there was tied 67-67. But one of the Democrats was removed because of election fraud(didn’t live in district). So the Republicans took control of the House and the Democrats boycotted.

House GOP Leader Lisa Demuth, of Cold Spring, will be the chamber’s speaker through 2026 under the deal reached by the two caucuses, according to multiple sources briefed on the agreement. Demuth, who is Black, will be the first person of color to become speaker of the Minnesota House.

Republicans will chair all House committees for the next month while they hold a 67-66 advantage. A March 11 special election for a safely blue Roseville-area seat, called by Gov. Tim Walz on Wednesday, is expected to bring the chamber to a tie. Once the House is evenly divided, Democrats and Republicans will co-chair the committees.

Congressional Report Validates COVID “Conspiracy Theories” (Part 1)

Congressional Report Validates COVID “Conspiracy Theories” (Part 1)

The House Oversight Committee has released its final report on COVID-19, confirming many of the theories and claims labeled as “conspiracy” or “misinformation” during the pandemic. The report focuses on the origins of the coronavirus and the federal government’s funding of gain-of-function research. It concludes that COVID-19 most likely originated from a laboratory in Wuhan, China.

The committee highlights five key arguments supporting the “lab leak” theory. First, the virus displays a biological characteristic not typically found in nature. Second, data reveals that all COVID-19 cases trace back to a single introduction into humans, unlike previous pandemics, which involved multiple spillover events. Third, Wuhan houses China’s leading SARS research facility, which has a history of conducting gain-of-function experiments under inadequate biosafety conditions. Fourth, researchers from the Wuhan Institute of Virology reportedly became ill with a COVID-like virus in the fall of 2019, months before the outbreak was linked to a wet market. Finally, the lack of scientific evidence for a natural origin, even after years of research, strengthens the lab leak hypothesis.

The House Oversight Committee has also determined that Dr. Anthony Fauci played a key role in suppressing the truth about the origins of COVID-19. According to the report, Dr. Fauci orchestrated the creation of the publication “The Proximal Origin of SARS-CoV-2,” which was widely cited by public health officials and media outlets to discredit the lab leak theory. This publication was allegedly crafted to promote the narrative that COVID-19 originated naturally rather than in a laboratory.

The report further concludes that a lab-related incident involving gain-of-function research is the most likely origin of COVID-19. It highlights that current government mechanisms for overseeing gain-of-function research are inadequate, overly complex, and lack global enforcement. This oversight failure has underscored the need for more stringent and transparent regulations to mitigate risks posed by such experiments.

Additionally, the committee scrutinized the role of EcoHealth Alliance, Inc., led by Dr. Peter Daszak. EcoHealth allegedly used U.S. taxpayer funds to support dangerous gain-of-function research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology. Following the release of evidence by the Select Subcommittee showing that EcoHealth violated the terms of its National Institutes of Health (NIH) grant, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) initiated debarment proceedings and suspended all funding to the organization. Furthermore, new evidence has revealed that the Department of Justice (DOJ) is investigating EcoHealth’s activities during the pandemic, adding another layer of scrutiny to its operations.

The House Oversight Committee’s report delivers a damning indictment of the measures taken to combat COVID-19, asserting that many were not based on science and caused significant harm. Policies such as social distancing, mask mandates, and lockdowns are unequivocally criticized for their ineffectiveness and their role in prolonging the crisis.

Social Distancing

The “6 feet apart” social distancing rule, which led to widespread school closures and the collapse of countless small businesses, was entirely arbitrary and unsupported by scientific evidence. Dr. Anthony Fauci admitted under oath that the recommendation “sort of just appeared,” exposing the lack of any substantive justification for this policy.

Mask Mandates

Mask mandates were imposed without conclusive scientific proof that they effectively protected against COVID-19. Public health officials frequently contradicted themselves on the efficacy of masks, fueling widespread public distrust and highlighting the absence of a consistent, science-based approach.

Lockdowns

Lockdowns inflicted devastating harm on the American economy and severely impacted the mental and physical health of the population, especially younger Americans. Instead of prioritizing the protection of vulnerable groups, federal and state governments imposed draconian measures that forced millions to sacrifice essential aspects of their livelihoods, education, and healthcare. These lockdowns caused immeasurable damage with no clear evidence of benefit.

New York’s Pandemic Failures

Former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo’s disastrous March 25 order, which mandated that nursing homes accept COVID-19-positive patients, is described as a case of blatant medical malpractice. This reckless policy led to catastrophic outcomes in nursing homes. Evidence further reveals that Cuomo and his administration deliberately worked to conceal the deadly consequences of their decisions to avoid accountability.

The Select Subcommittee has accused Cuomo of knowingly making false statements to conceal the extent of the tragedy in New York’s nursing homes. In light of this, the committee has referred Cuomo to the Department of Justice for criminal prosecution.

These findings categorically expose the failures and harm caused by pandemic policies, holding key officials accountable for their actions and the suffering they inflicted on the American people.

Far left Romania took a page from the US Progressives one step further. A Conservative looked to be a victor in the second round of voting. Romania’s top court cancelled the elections.

Hundreds of thousands of Romanians furious with the current government for the cancellation of the presidential election marched today through the capital Bucharest to demand that the vote should proceed and that outgoing – and by now illegitimate – President Klaus Iohannis should resign.

Sore Losers: Senate Dems want to Eliminate the Electoral College Via Constitutional Amendment

Sore Losers: Senate Dems want to Eliminate the Electoral College Via Constitutional Amendment.

There’s a good reason why a jackass symbolizes the misnamed “Democratic” party!

I walked away too.

Senate Democrats, having failed to defeat President-elect Donald Trump in the 2024 election, want to change the rules.

Ironically, however, those same Senate Democrats do not seem to understand that their arguments for destroying a core principle of our federal republic would also justify eliminating the Senate itself.

Monday on the social media platform X, the Senate Judiciary Committee, chaired by Democratic Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois, announced a “bill to abolish the Electoral College, restoring democracy by allowing the direct election of presidents through popular vote alone.”

Durbin, who has also proposed arming illegal immigrants, joined two of his colleagues, Democratic Sen. Brian Schatz of Hawaii and Democratic Sen. Peter Welch of Vermont, in introducing a proposed constitutional amendment that, if adopted, would abolish the Electoral College.

“In 2000, before the general election, I introduced a bipartisan resolution to amend the Constitution and abolish the Electoral College. I still believe today that it’s time to retire this 18th century invention,” Durbin said.

Fortunately, the authors of the Constitution understood the tyrannical threat posed by people like Durbin.

Hence, an amendment is required to eliminate something as fundamental to our federal republic as the Electoral College, which appears in Article II, Section 1 of the Constitution.

Under Article V, two thirds of both houses of Congress, plus three fourths of the states, must approve said amendment.

In other words, Senate Democrats have no chance of abolishing the Electoral College, that perennial object of their unhinged fixation.

Still, their behavior requires explanation. And voters need to understand why they must never allow Democrats to succeed in their sinister quest.

First, the reason for Monday’s announcement seems obvious. Senate Democrats hope to change the narrative surrounding Trump’s victory.

According to the Associated Press, with all states finally having counted at least 99 percent of votes from the 2024 election, Trump will win the national popular vote by more than two million votes. Thus, Senate Democrats’ constitutional amendment would not have changed the outcome.

Still, Trump has generated significant momentum and stands poised to reenter the White House as popular as ever. Senate Democrats, therefore, needed to rally their own voters around their shopworn lie of defending “democracy.”

Moreover, recent history has proven that Democrats prosper amid the electoral chaos they create. And eliminating the Electoral College would sow unfathomable chaos.

Imagine how presidential elections would unfold if determined by the national popular vote. Imagine waiting on California, for instance, to finish counting its votes more than a month after Election Day.

As it stands, California awards 54 electoral votes — no more, no less. So we know in advance exactly the degree to which Californians will influence the election’s outcome.

But what if California Democrats had an incentive to find as many votes as possible? Would any Republican trust the outcome of elections conducted in that manner?

Second — one marvels at the irony — Senate Democrats’ argument for abolishing the Electoral College also applies to the Senate.

“I’m excited to partner with my friends and colleagues Senator Schatz and Chair Durbin on this important constitutional amendment, which will help empower every voter in every state,” Welch said, per The Hill.

But the Senate itself does not reflect the will of “every voter in every state” — far from it.

In fact, the Electoral College, which awards electoral votes based on a state’s population, comes exponentially closer to reflecting the will of “every voter in every state” than the Senate ever has or ever will.

Indeed, regardless of population, two senators per state hardly sounds like “democracy.”

And that is the point: America’s constitutional republic incorporates democratic principles, but it is not a democracy, and it must never become one, lest we endure the unbridled tyranny of electoral majorities.

Instead, America’s constitutional system provides for a meaningful division of power between the national and state governments. The Electoral College, by empowering the people of all the states to conduct their own elections and award their electoral votes as they see fit consistent with the Constitution, helps prevent the tyrannical consolidation of states into a single, omnipotent national government.

Thus, Democratic leadership must never succeed in eliminating the Electoral College. Should they do so, they would create a convincing argument for abolishing the Senate itself. At that point, the federal constitutional structure would have collapsed, and the Union would likely dissolve.

Orange County ballot counting. HUGE Ballot Discrepancies. You make the call. A reprint from GP.

Guest post by Joe Hoft at JoeHoft.com

The 2024 Election results in Orange County, CA make no sense.

The first indication that something was up in Orange County was on Thursday, November 7, two days after the 2024 Election. Concerned citizens warned that Newsom had sent people to Orange County and that GOP ballots needed to be cured.
Donald Trump will be the next President of the United States but Democrats want control of the House to block the mandate Americans gave us in this election.

President Trump shared this message on Truth Social last night.

That evening, a bomb threat was reported at the election center where ballot counting was taking place in Orange County. Initially, it was reported that staff and members of the public were removed from the center at around 6:45pm, shortly before voting was scheduled to stop for the evening.

The Gateway Pundit was later told that the live stream was taken down and was only running when they were counting ballots.  There were other cameras in the facility, possibly security cameras, that were running in the counting center at all hours.

Per discussions with LEOs with decades of service, the live-stream provided an eye on the operations while the search of the facility was going on.

We don’t know what happened when the live-stream went down, but the registrar told Cristina Laila from The Gateway Pundit that the building was swept for bombs, they evacuated the building for the night, and they locked the facility down for the night.

One month later, five out of six US House races counted in conservative Orange County were “won” by Democrats. We still have no information on who was behind the bomb threat.

The mainstream media is silent about the bomb threats that occurred in 7 California counties after the 2024 election and in more than 50 counties across the nation.

Orange County’s 2024 Election Results

The results of the elections in Orange County were completed weeks after Election Day. In the presidential race in Orange County, 1,417,397 ballots were counted in the 2024 Election. This is out of a reported 1,861,450 registered voters.

This resulted in an unbelievable voter turnout of 76.1%. (Any results in an election with voter turnout over 75% are suspect.)

The total number of votes for President when adding up the votes for all the candidates in the 2024 race in Orange County was only 1,391,307 votes (see below). This is 26,090 votes short of the number of ballots counted in the election. Where did these additional votes go?

Also, although tremendously unpopular in California, somehow Kamala Harris received more votes for President than President Trump in conservative Orange County, California.

 

In the Senate race in Orange County there were two Senate votes to make. One for the candidate to fill out the remainder of the term of late California Senator Dianne Feinstein, and the other for the next six year term starting in January.

In both races, GOP candidate Steve Garvey received more votes than Adam Schiff. Also, in both cases, Garvey received more votes than President Trump did for President. This too makes no sense.

 

Orange County also provides information on the number of individuals eligible to vote and active (having voted in the most recent elections). This report (below) shows 1,901,528 active voters in the county.

 

This is 40,078 voters more than the number of registered voters reported by the county in the reports above (1,861,450).

Orange County election results.

Orange County also provides information on the number of ballots issued in the 2024 Election.

2,186,561 ballots issued in the county. This includes vote-by-mail ballots and military and overseas ballots. This is 325,111 ballots more than the number of registered voters reported by the county in the first report above (1,861,450).

How can Orange County send out over 325,000 more ballots than registered voters in the 2024 Election?

Also, a comparison between the number of ballots counted versus the number of ballots received has a material discrepancy. The number of ballots counted is noted in the first chart above (1,417,397).

However, according to Orange County’s own report, the number of ballots returned to the county is 1,108,281 ballots. This means 309,116 ballots were counted more than the number of ballots returned is less than the number of ballots counted in the county.

How can Orange County count 309,000 ballots more than were returned to the county?

 

The elections in Orange County, California are a mess. Over 309,000 ballots were counted in the county’s results than were returned in the 2024 election, and more than 325,000 ballots were sent out than the county has registered voters.

Will we ever see an end to Gerrymandering? Not as long as Democrats are in control.

States like New York, Illinois, Maryland, and California live by Gerrymandering. And it’s not changing soon. Worst is California,

California has what’s called a California Citizens Redistricting Commission (CCRC). Something they tried in Ohio, but the voters were too smart to go that route. Tell me what you noticed about how the California Commission works.

According to the state constitution, the first eight commissioners are selected by a panel of three independent officials from the state auditor’s office. (What party is the auditor?) That panel narrows down applications to 120 — 40 Democrats, 40 Republicans and 40 registered with no party preference — and then down to 60 applicants, 20 from each subpool. Then, the Legislature gets to remove as many as 24 names from the list (eight from each subpool). (Who controls the legislature?) Finally, the auditor randomly draws eight names. These first eight commissioners then select the final six members by selecting two from each subpool.
