02c U.S. Politics – Election

By Paul Gordon Collier, Editor

“Hundreds of millions of US voter files are in the hands of foreign governments. Our machines and ballot counting systems are exposed to hacking and manipulation and corruption. China and other countries have been trying to meddle in our elections. Evidence of fraud has been buried. Hundreds of thousands of non-citizens and dead people are listed and active on the voter rolls.

“And yet we still have elections with no voter ID, no proof of citizenship, and tens of millions of ballots floating aimlessly through the mail.” – President Donald Trump, July 16, 2026

INTRODUCTION

On July 16, 2026, President Donald Trump gave a special Prime Time speech that was reported by some to be a smoking gun exposing the fraud of the 2020 election. This writer was skeptical that the promise would live up to the hype as most of us have seen this badly written, acted, and shot film before.

The mere possibility of a real smoking gun being announced compelled me to finish our scheduled installment of our Futureq series just in case there was no smoking gun. There wasn’t, as my readers know, for last week featured our report on 3D Printing.

While the President offered no smoking gun, what he did offer was what I am calling “smoking vulnerabilities.” There’s no smoking gun, but rather there are thousands of cuts in the election process body, and all of them are plainly leaking exploitable, corruptible ballots.

This story contains elements of other Deep Dive nominees this week, including the 2026 elections, the increasingly aggressive progressive state press, and the split of the Democrat Party between “Progmericans” and “Progressives.”

This is why we chose the President’s speech as this week’s Deep Dive, despite it lacking any real smoking gun.

A. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

This is an analysis of President Donald Trump’s Prime Time speech on the 2020 election. We analyze the speech topically rather than chronologically.

The heart of the President’ speech is the attempt to expose the existential vulnerabilities in our election system to the American people. The hope is to garner more support for the SAVE Act, which would effectively end mass mailer voting and make Voter ID mandatory.

We start off our analysis with a look at the President’s claims about the vulnerabilities in the election system.

The President’s second-most significant point is the claim the progressives within the U.S. government, including in our intelligence agencies, hid our election vulnerabilities from the President. We look at the President’s claims of burn bags and a shadow government.

The third most significant claim is that China not only acquired U.S. voter roll information, but they’ve also been colluding with the Progressive State press to harm the President’s chances of being re-elected.

We look at the President’s claims about China’s involvement in U.S. elections.

The President covered two examples of election vulnerabilities and fraud, Michigan 2020 and Los Angeles 2026. Michigan exposes the corruption of progressive-led governments in protecting election fraud; Los Angeles exposes the smoking vulnerabilities of mass mailer elections.

We analyze the President’s claims and revisit our own analysis of the Los Angeles Elections.

Near the end of the President’s speech, he claimed the CCP was at least attempting to collude with progressive business leaders and the progressive state press. He also claimed the progressive state press was intentionally using its news platforms to protect the “radical left.”

We analyze the President’s claims about progressive subversion within the U.S.

We end our Deep Dive with an assessment of the President’s speech and recommended action for the President.

B. VULNERABILITIES

“The third set of documents we are releasing proves that for many years, Americans were blatantly lied to about the security of our election infrastructure, including electronic voting machines and ballot counting systems, dishonest, almost all.” – President Donald Trump

The Department of Homeland Security announced it has discovered, so far, 278,000 non-citizens who are registered to vote. These figures come from the states that volunteered information requested by the DHS. States controlled by the Democratic party have refused to give the data to the DHS. Parts of the Federal courts continue to prevent the DHS from retrieving this data. SCOTUS has yet to make a final ruling.

In my Deep Dive on the LA Mayors Race, I wrote, “The bellwether takeaway from my investigation in the LA Mayors Race is the Democrats have created a source for power, the Mass Mailer Election machine, that looks increasingly to be their potential downfall.”

The report outlined the complexity of the Mass Mailer election machine and the many inherent vulnerabilities in that system. Even the signature software verification process has been found to be unreliable. The President hinted at this in his speech, but he didn’t give it much attention.

However, in the documents that followed, the Trump administration released a “Fact Checking the Fact Checkers” memo that addressed the claim “Mail-in voting is safe and secure.”

The White House wrote, “Multiple independent analyses have warned for years about the heightened risks of mail-in ballots. The bipartisan Commission on Federal Election Reform concluded that absentee ballots are ‘the largest source of potential voter fraud.’

“The MIT Election Data + Science Lab has noted that fraud appears more frequent with mail voting than in-person voting. A Heartland Institute/Rasmussen poll found that 21% of mail-in voters admitted to at least one form of fraud in the 2020 election. The Heritage Foundation has documented widespread vulnerabilities to theft, forgery, and coercion.

C. BURN BAGS AND SHADOW GOVERNMENT

The Trump administration’s discovery of burn bags, bags designated to illegally dispose of incriminating evidence of criminal activity within the progressive state, was a major error by the Obama administration. This discovery gave credence to numerous investigations, which have sprouted numerous others.

The President highlighted this discovery in his speech.

“Recently, we found significant numbers of burn bags information, and this is a group of bags that were used to destroy information, given by President Barack Hussein Obama to be burned, it was supposed to be burned.

“These bags were supposed to be at a different level by different people, incinerated and checked, but it never happened. Maybe we got lucky. We believe this was not done on purpose, but rather through gross incompetence of the people that were supposed to burn the bags. But the findings are stunning.” – President Donald J Trump

A memo was released by the President shortly after his speech that shows there was a coordinated effort before the 2020 election to conceal from the President the fact that our election system had vulnerabilities which were exploited by foreign powers, including China.

The memo read “We have deliberately massaged our one pending PDB to avoid any direct links to this election. The massive report we have been waiting on has been chopped up into 13 reports that likely will not get out until late next week. May/all of them will be cross posted into (deleted word) or downgraded to (deleted word) so that can be more readily incorporated into the 45-day piece, if needed.

The sender of the memo wrote, “I’m basically running a shadow government across the FBI at this point.”

Going into the 2020 election, the clearly known vulnerabilities in our election system were hidden by FBI and CIA rogue operatives, progressive state agents. Their purpose was simple, to keep the vulnerabilities in place to prevent the President from winning re-election. Their allies are clear, and they most assuredly include the Chinese Communist Party, with the approval and command of Chairman Xi.

The President claimed, “US spy agencies began learning about the compromise of voter registration files in 2020, when they discovered that tens of millions of voter data… in 18 states have been bought, stolen or hacked by China. Yet those responsible for sounding the alarm instead kept the information secret and hidden.

“They did not disclose to me as president or to anyone else. And to the best of our knowledge, they did not inform Congress. In fact, all they kept saying is, this is the most secure election in the history of our country — a standard, very pat line that was divvied out to say….

… They fought like hell not to have it, Donald Trump to win, and for good reason. As the documents we are releasing show, CIA reporting explicitly stated, and I quote, in mid-2018, the Chinese Communist Party’s policy was to leverage all domestic and foreign elements that were opposed to the US president in an effort to reduce the US president’s votes and make him resign or prevent his reelection.”

D. CHINA

“…during the 2020 election cycle, the People’s Republic of China carried out what is believed to be the largest compromise of election data in history, resulting in China’s illicit acquisition of 220 million US voter files.” – President Donald Trump

According to the President, U.S. spy agencies know about election vulnerabilities and hid those vulnerabilities from the President. They knew of these vulnerabilities because they had already been exploited by the Chinese Communist Party in 2016 and 2018.

Trump also claimed, “China’s activities even included an attempt to manufacture illegal ballots for Joe Biden. Documents show that during this period, dozens of significant CIA and NSA reports about China’s election targeting were kept out of the presidential briefing.”

This means America’s spy agencies knew China was actively working to exploit U.S. election vulnerabilities to assure a Biden win in 2020. They knew it and worked as a team to keep that information secret. Not only did they keep the information secret, but they also did nothing to let anyone else know of the vulnerabilities.

The criminality of the action goes beyond what they did to the President, it touches every voting district in America that was not informed of its vulnerabilities to foreign influence. For the sake of protecting the country from a Trump re-election, our spy agents chose to subvert the election process and make it vulnerable to foreign exploitation.

This would be colluding with America’s enemies to overthrow a duly elected President. These are plainly executable crimes against the republic.

E. TWO BELLWETHERS OF ELECTION SUBVERSION

Michigan and Los Angeles provided two glaring examples of the progressive subversion of the American election process. Michigan shows how progressives in power simply look the other way when the cheat is on, and Los Angeles shows how the voting process itself is designed to make it easy to cheat, even if it means making our election system vulnerable to foreign intrusion.

1. MICHIGAN – The President highlighted one known example of the Biden administration inheriting evidence of election fraud in 2020 that was buried in 2021. That example was found in Michigan.

“The fourth set of documents reveals that even when significant evidence of fraud has been detected, it has been buried and covered up. Among the disclosures tonight are FBI files detailing evidence of alleged fraud by a large-scale voter registration operation in Michigan.

“In 2020, Michigan State Police raided a Democrat Get Out the Vote Organization, corrupt group in Muskegon… The documents state that some canvassers admitted to FBI agents that they signed voter registration forms in other people’s names, submitted fraudulent registration for people who did not exist, and received gift cards tied to their number of applications that they produced…. The FBI agents working on the case believe that crimes were committed, yet the Biden Department of Justice slow-walked the investigation and killed it.” –- President Donald Trump

2. LOS ANGELES – We covered the recent Los Angeles Mayors Race, including their election process.

This illustrates a typical mass mailer election scheme, where the smoking gun is in the thousands of vulnerabilities that are features, not flaws, of a corrupt, subversive progressive state system.

“Los Angeles residents can vote one of four ways, early in-person voting, same-day in-person voting, mail in your ballot through the postal service, or drop your ballot off at a ballot box. Some of them might “choose” multiple options.

“Nearly 82% of the residents who vote do so through the mail-in ballot. Of those, 68% were dropped off in the ballot boxes. This means more than 55% of the votes tabulated were retrieved from those ballot boxes.

“On the night of the election, at 8pm local time, the ballot boxes lock. Two-person teams of election workers go out to retrieve the ballots. The exact number of teams was not given. They are employees of the county, which is overwhelmingly controlled by the progressives.

“There are 400 ballot boxes for the teams to fetch ballots from. Meanwhile the ballots aren’t done coming in, for the mailed in ballots are given 7 days after the election to arrive, if they have a postmark on or before election day on it.

“There are lots of protocols to ‘assure’ no fraud can take place, such as having two-person teams to ‘assure’ no one can put in fake ballots. There are assurances for ballot reliance, which include signature recognition software that ‘exactly matches’ the registered voter to confirm it belongs to them. No such exacting software exists, by the way.

“All of the assurances rely on faith the technology does what they say it does, that there are no ‘clever ways’ to easily circumvent their safeguards (because how could we know since we don’t understand the technology), and that somehow the mere creation of multiple points for fraud isn’t reason enough to abandon this mass mailer election machine.”

F. PROGRESSIVE SUBVERSION AND COLLUSION WITH THE ENEMY

1. CCP COLLUSION – The President claimed the CIA uncovered ongoing efforts by the CCP to influence U.S. business leaders. He claimed, “Going on this document says, and this is by the CIA, the strategy included efforts to use Chinese contacts with big US companies to influence US business leaders to turn against the president of the United States of America.”

Not only did the CCP seek to influence U.S. business leaders (and still do, I believe), they also sought to influence U.S. journalists (and still do, I believe).

Trump claimed, “The Chinese government sought to identify US journalists who had reported negatively on the US president and pay them large sums of money to write more negative articles about him, as many as they could and they didn’t care what they said. The Chinese government wanted US president to lose the next election.”

The President, by the way, during his first term, was not aware of any of these facts since the intelligence community intentionally colluded to prevent the President from knowing about this. They intentionally protected foreign powers working to subvert the American election process. They chose Chairman Xi over America, and still are.

Every progressive state institution, including the progressive state press, deliberately demonized people and beliefs that exposed the collusion, while intentionally not reporting on evidence that exposes the collusion.

2. PROGRESSIVE STATE PRESS – Near the end of the President’s speech, he took a major shot across the bow at the progressive state press. He stated, “In a rare move, NBC and ABC fake news have both said that they would not cover this speech. They knew what it was about, because of the fact that they don’t like the topic, because they know how corrupt our system is and they don’t want to reveal it. They and others in the media are part of a plot.

“They want to continue this fraud for whatever reason. They want to keep it going. They want to protect the radical left. They can’t have a great country and that’s true; you can’t have a great country without free and fair elections. Fraud like this should mean a revocation of their licenses. They use our public multibillion dollar in value airways for absolutely no money.”

The President hinted at the progressive state press we have long identified as an agent of progressive revolutionary action intended to overthrow the American republic. He stated, “They and others in the media are part of a plot.”

He didn’t elaborate, but he did accuse them of perpetuating “fraud,” a serious accusation that could, theoretically, lead to criminal prosecutions.

He didn’t just throw vague accusations against them, he also threatened to move to get their broadcast licenses revoked. This is not criminal prosecution, though, and he fell short of suggesting such actions.

The President did not directly accuse the Mainstream Press of working in collusion with the Chinese Communist Party and the Democratic Party to overthrow the American republic. He didn’t accuse the Mainstream Press of using their platforms as information terror machines intended to mislead voters and trigger violence against American citizens.

I continue to accuse the mainstream press, the Progressive State Press, of committing and continuing to commit acts of treason, terrorism, and fraud, as well as committing violations of election advertising and news presentation laws (presenting paid advertising as news, for instance).

What the President did was hint at such claims, but he only offered threats to broadcast licenses in response to such acts of terror and treason.

G. ASSESSMENT

President Trump’s much vaunted speech failed to deliver the smoking gun that was being promised by some of his proxies. I doubt very much that the progressive state press itself believed this speech was a smoking gun. I think they knew in advance this speech was about presenting a clear case that our election system is not secured.

The progressive state press mostly failed to cover the special speech in its entirety. But when they do, they declare with confidence the President’s claims are not true, that this is confirmed by the same progressives accused, indirectly, of committing high crimes against the republic.

This speech was yet another clear display of progressive treason that can only be seen by Americans. The complexity of the treasonous operations alone protects them from undeniable scrutiny by the people who perceive an advantage in living the anti-human lie of progressivism.

The speech further emboldens Americans who clearly see the anti-American, ant-human nature of the Progressive state, along with its coming out as a blatantly anti-American, anti-white genocidal ideology of hate, fear, and fake hope.

Yet because the President hedged his bets, because he failed to deliver the smoking gun promised by proxies, and because he started off the speech bragging about his accomplishments, the progressive can easily fail to see the plain truth of the nature of their profound corruption. This is a speech they can easily dismiss.

This speech seems not so much about preparing the American people for a decisive action against the progressive state, a separate nation at war with our own; rather, it seems more about generating support for the SAVE Act. This act, if passed, would gut most of the intentionally built-in vulnerabilities of the progressive state, including ending mass mailer elections.

While he is appealing to the American public, he yet gives space for the progressive public to easily dismiss this speech. While he is appealing to the American public, he is most likely directing this speech at the Republicans in the Senate.

They know some of the still classified files that I strongly suspect clearly shows the insurrectionist nature of the Democratic Party as the vehicle of power for the competing nation-state within us, the progressive state.

They can read between the lines and understand Trump is going down a road that eventually leads to the criminalization of the Democratic Party, and the prosecution not just of Democrats committing treason, but the Republicans knowingly letting them do it.

The President’s speech was about letting those Republicans who continue to perform as DNC operatives that block effective opposition to the progressive state understand that he knows what they’re doing, and they do so at their own risk going forward.

For the sake of preserving a constitutionally non-essential standard, the filibuster, these GOP quislings claim they cannot pass the SAVE Act. As they’ve continued to resist the existential death blow to the progressive state’s election cheating scheme because of that lie, they are now switching to claim it’s just too late to make any changes now. We Americans plainly understand this is treason.

This writer didn’t need this speech to feel confident in asserting the Democratic Party IS the de facto progressive state asserting itself nakedly, having gestated within the American republic like an unwanted host-murdering parasite. Now, the parasite is fully grown and ready to murder its host, us. The Republicans protecting the progressives deserve the same fate they deserve, life in prison or execution.

Any progressive outlet that does not recognize the existential threat that mass mailer voting, electronic voting, prolonged voting periods, and post-election-day vote counting are to our republic should be considered plainly part of the insurrectionist operation.

Your friends, your family members that are still in denial that mass mailer elections are inherently corrupt have chosen a different nation-state than you have. They chose “safe bondage” over “dangerous liberty,” and they WILL turn you into the authorities once the authorities have the power to ask them to do so. They are all willing to kill their neighbors, even their family members, to assure their safe bondage.

After all, they’ve successfully sub-humanized the most innocent, the unborn, and that they did in the name of carnal pleasure, casual sex that casually murders the consequence of its own freewill actions.

You must be willfully ignorant to approve a voting process that makes it so easy for our enemies to decide our elections for us. Our enemies include the Democratic Party, significant elements of the Republican Party (especially in leadership), and all the rank-and-file progressives that live among us, plotting to murder us all in the name of “diversity.”

The President hasn’t already declared a national emergency, declared an insurrection, suspended habeas corpus, and begun the prosecution and execution of the top leaders of the insurrection movement, despite clear evidence across the board that an insurrection is exactly what is happening.

That color-vomit flag of theirs, their “Pride” flag is a symbol of treason, for it represents the progressive state, a state where innocent and guilty is defined by your social caste, not the facts of the matter.

Social justice as a phrase is an act of war against the republic, for it invalidates our founding principle, that individuals are to be judged on their own merits, not their social standing. The social of social justice is the invalidation of the principle of individual liberty.

As a matter of fact, progressives, from children to professors, now regularly refer to individual liberty as a dog whistle for the white devil.

The President’s speech, unfortunately, will have little impact on the progressives, most of whom won’t even read the transcript. They’ll receive their understanding of the speech from the progressive state press, their masters who instruct them on what they should believe and not believe.

That insurrectionist criminal operation, the progressive state press, is telling its audiences the President’s speech just repeated unfounded lies and China is better than the U.S. when it comes to integrity. After all, China was not founded by the white devil, like America was.

In social justice hierarchies, the American republic is MORE EVIL than the Chinese totalitarian nationalist ethno-state because China is not white. The progressive’s critical thinking ends at race, gender, and sexual preference.

The enlightened are homosexuals and transgenders, ESPECIALLY the non-white ones. The murderable are the heterosexuals, the cis-gendered, males, and whites. If you fit into all three categories, you get murdered first.

Progressivism holds to the ancient belief that men can murder their way to heaven on earth, just like their earthly father, Cain, did, and just like their spiritual father, Satan promised them.

Behind the scenes, however, this speech emboldens the investigators and sends a warning to the non-ideological collaborators; it’s time to jump this sinking ship, lest you go down with it.

RECOMMENDED ACTION

It should be no surprise to our regular readers that my recommended action for President Trump is to declare a national emergency and a state of insurrection. The moment he does this, the lines between American power and Progressive State power will be clear. The longer we wait to move decisively against this insurrection, the more difficult it will be to defeat them.

It might very well be that the President has good reason to not openly, directly, accuse the Democratic Party of intentionally colluding with foreign powers like China to destroy the spirit of America in the hearts of her citizens, but if that is the case, then the time to act becomes even more NOW.

The longer we wait, the stronger the progressive gets. If you’re already afraid of that power, then the time to act was yesterday, but now it is today, for today gives us a better chance than tomorrow does. The time to act is ALWAYS today until you finally act.

We Americans are prepared to die fighting rather than live in progressive slavery (if they let us live at all). We have nothing more to lose. They’ve made it clear there is no self-stewardship, no self-defined flourishing in their Empire of the White Devil Lie.

In this week’s Bellwether Report, we highlighted the overt treason of the Hawaiian Supreme Court, which openly revolted against SCOTUS on the grounds its rulings are based in white supremacism, yet no arrests have been made. Clearly, every American understands Hawaii just seceded from the union.

There is no Rule of Law to preserve. There is no unity to preserve. There are two nations, America and the Progressive State. The one, the progressive state, rose to power through the lie of the white devil.

They pulled into their coalition the perverts, the pedophiles, the looters, the psychopaths, all around the lie that the white devil will kill us all if we don’t kill him and everything he created. The white devil dies, along with his stuff, or the noble innocent do, the non-whites, the non-heteronormatives.

That murder list includes every American in this country, every American institution, and even every Christian one.

Their power comes through hating America and the Christian God, nothing else. Their followers hated God and America long before progressives gave them the sophistry needed to protect them from looking at their true child-sacrificing depraved, murderous, raping selves.

With some exceptions, these people were not tricked into being murderous insurrectionists, they just took advantage of a vehicle of power that allowed them to be what they always were, murderers at heart, like their spiritual father, the devil.

For we Christians, we must remember devils walk among us, murderous devils hungry for the flesh of the innocent, but those devils are yet redeemable, for we were once like them and now are saved.

The Apostle Paul hunted down Christians for the state to kill. He is a traitor, an insurrectionist in the Kingdom of God, who yet repented and dedicated his entire body and being to advance the same Kingdom he once sought to murder. Now he is one of the founding fathers of Christ’s Kingdom manifest on earth.

Lest we become murderers too, let us not forget the image of God still present in our greatest human enemies, all of which can still find God and leave the cult of genocidal psychopathy.

While we openly advocate civic authority prosecuting the progressive insurrectionists to the fullest extent of the law, we do not advocate any action taken against progressives by non-civic authority.

If it is God’s will that no civic authority resists the progressive state, then the progressive state is the rightful judge of the land. Its rule is God’s wrath justly applied to a land that continues to support murdering unborn children so humans can continue to have casual sex without “consequence” (save for the baby you murder to free yourself from that consequence).

In most “polite circles,” even among those that are against abortion, that paragraph above would mark me as extremist, right wing, even a Nazi, at least by most progressives. All these categories put me in the progressive category of subhuman, a human they can kill if I get in their kingdom’s way. Speaking out against it as I am right here, in the progressive state, would get me executed.

The fact that being against abortion from inception to birth is considered the extremist position in our society is a condemnation of that same society. We walk in truth, not in fear of those who fear such truth.

We do not advocate for rebellion against the state by anyone other than the state, civic authority within the whole that recognizes the unconstitutionality of the authority above it. We believe American civic authority is beyond justified in “seceding” from the progressive state and declaring war on civic authority that continues to support the century-old insurrection.

President Trump, the time to act was in 2020, right after the 2020 election, when it became clear to Americans the republic died with the certification of an unjust mass mailer election. Yet the sooner you act, the best our chances are in overcoming this century-long coup of our republic.

Every day you wait is a day too late lest God himself intervenes to save us.

It is better for Americans to hold some of these lands than none of them. If the consequence of this action is balkanization, so be it. Let the Americans rule themselves and the progressives murder one another (and they will, for their ideology is based on being the most disenfranchised, for then you are presumed innocent, regardless of the evidence, the facts of the case).

Declare a national emergency, declare an insurrection. Let us find out which parts of civic authority are American and which parts need to be destroyed. Long live America, death to the progressive state. And let us pray our enemies repent and are restored to both America and the Kingdom of God. God is never pleased when men choose death, neither should we pleased when they “succeed” in accomplishing it.

Their deaths are never-ending, and we will witness their agony in the lake of fire outside the gates of New Jerusalem. We will not rejoice at their eternal suffering. We should not rejoice when they continue to choose that fate.

The smoking gun is, in fact, the smoking vulnerability of our election system. Anyone still denying it does so out of a rejection of America and an embrace of the Progressive State. We are no longer fellow citizens in the same nation.

It’s time for the President to decisively act to give the American republic a chance to destroy the progressive state within it. Only then will American Rule of Law be restored. Let us hope mercy walks with justice in our victory, should the Lord grant it.
