EXCERPT:

A GOP senator who voted to convict President Donald Trump accused the Republican establishment of not pouring enough money into his already cash-rich reelection campaign, Punchbowl News reported Friday.

Republican Louisiana Sen. Bill Cassidy is set to face voters for the first time since his vote following Trump’s second impeachment, as he competes against Louisiana Rep. Julia Letlow and Louisiana Treasurer John Fleming in a brutal May 16 GOP primary.

Despite spending millions of dollars in his bid for a third term, Cassidy lashed out at the National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) in a phone call, accusing the Senate Republicans’ campaign arm of not sufficiently funding his campaign, according to Punchbowl News.

NRSC Executive Director Jennifer DeCasper gave a profanity-laced response to the embattled senator, stating that he should not have joined Democrats and six other GOP senators in convicting Trump in January 2021, the outlet reported, citing multiple anonymous sources.

Democratic House Rep. Eric Swalwell suspended his campaign for California governor on Sunday night following sexual assault allegations that he continues to deny.

“I will fight the serious, false allegations that have been made — but that’s my fight, not a campaign’s,” Swalwell said in a social media post.

Democrats quickly abandoned Swalwell, 44, after allegations that he sexually assaulted a woman twice, including when she worked for him. The allegations were first published Friday in the San Francisco Chronicle, and later by CNN.

SAN DIEGO — While their spring convention was held beneath mostly sunny San Diego skies, delegates and leaders of the California Republican party basked in a different sort of glow over the weekend as the campaign for a leading Democratic candidate for governor imploded because of allegations of sexual assault and misconduct.

The party did not endorse a candidate for governor on Sunday because neither of the top Republicans — Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco and former Fox News host Steve Hilton — received the support of 60% of delegates. Bianco won 49% while Hilton had 44%; 7% of delegates voted not to endorse in the race.

Donald Trump hasn’t done interviews with neutral journalists who could challenge him in years. Trump’s venues of choice are either cell phone interviews that last a minute or two or conservative media like Fox News and Newsmax.

The Fox News interviews are heavily manufactured, usually pretaped, and edited before they air.

It takes a special level of incompetence to go on a network that is propagandistic and supportive and botch a softball question in such a friendly and managed environment.

The issue that is driving the special election results that Democrats have been dominating, and the Democratic Party’s midterm generic ballot lead that has been growing, is the economy. Inflation and rising prices are driving voter outrage directed at this president and his administration.

Driven by a desire to retain power and avoid political consequences such as impeachment, Donald Trump is pursuing three measures that could influence the upcoming midterm elections.

Late last month, the No Kings Movement conducted over three thousand large protests in all fifty states. As many as eight million concerned citizens made their voices heard, the largest protest in US history, and everyone was watching. This president and the complicit now sense their end and are rightfully frightened. The much-anticipated November mid-term elections risk sweeping a host of Trump supporters from office and Democrats becoming the majority in the House and Senate. Which risks a presidential impeachment process to follow. A third impeachment of a president has no historical precedent. Then again, there has never been a White House resident like this one.

Trump Signs Executive Order Limiting Mail-In Ballots – Legal Insurrection

President Donald Trump signed an executive order that limits who can submit a mail-in ballot in elections.

Trump signed the order “to strengthen election integrity by ordering citizen verification.”

“The Order directs the Secretary of Homeland Security, in coordination with the Social Security Administration, to compile and transmit to each State a State Citizenship List of confirmed U.S. citizens who will be 18 or older at the time of the next upcoming Federal election and reside in that State,” according to the fact sheet.

Mail-in ballots are not going anywhere.

It’s worth doing something to prevent fraud.

White House Staff Secretary Will Scarf said:

Mr. President, as you said, you have in front of you an executive order that deals with a number of issues relating to election integrity. As you’ve consistently identified, two of the biggest problems we have with election integrity in this country are one, inaccurate voter rolls that allow ineligible people to vote in various federal and state elections all over the country. Then secondarily, you’ve consistently identified that vote by mail in this country has become rife with fraud, people returning ballots who aren’t eligible, eligible to return ballots, ballots being sent to people who aren’t confirmed to be eligible voters.

So what this executive order is going to do is one, we’re going to take federal data, we’re going to ensure that each state’s election officials are provided with a comprehensive view of who the eligible voters in their jurisdiction actually are, allowing them to properly verify that everybody voting in their elections is legally able to vote. And then it orders the Postmaster General, the US Postal Service, to take bold new measures to verify that ballots both being sent to people are being sent to people who are eligible to vote, and then the ballots being returned are being properly returned by eligible voters only.

And we believe that combined the measures in this executive order will help secure elections in the future and ensure that the many abuses of our election system in the past aren’t repeated in future elections.

Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger was the moderate democrat who was going to change the Democrat Party. She was such a moderate; not only was her being a moderate reported by the legacy media, but it was also fact-checked by independent fact-checkers. Her getting elected was a model for how Democrats are going to win the midterms by running as moderates. It’s why she gave the response to Trump’s State of the Union.

The rub is that, according to a recent Washington Post poll, she is the least popular Virginia governor of the 21st century. Because — and this is key — like most Democrats who claim to be moderate, it’s all malarky. As soon as she was sworn in, her true socialist colors shone through. And it would appear voters are having buyer’s remorse.

Dude. It’s been less than three months. Yet, here we are.

Like all “moderate” democrats before her, she is a lying liar who lies, and once getting elected, turned hard left. Boys are going back to the girls’ bathrooms and stealing their sports scholarships. A ton of taxes are on the table to make the middle class less affordable while giving elected officials a pay raise. And relevant to our current political comment, she turned Virginia into a sanctuary state by ending all cooperation with ICE. I believe that was the literal first thing she did.

DCCC Sets Lobbyist Cash Record as Dems Campaign on Affordability– readsludge.com

The Democrats have set a new record for single-month lobbyist fundraising. The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee reported a record $4.1 million in lobbyist-bundled contributions in February, according to a Sludge analysis of Federal Election Commission filings, a dramatic increase in corporate-linked fundraising as House Democrats are campaigning on “affordability.” The lobbyist-derived cash made up nearly one-third of the DCCC’s fundraising last month.

Lobbyist bundling, in which registered lobbyists collect checks from their clients and colleagues and deliver them in a single package, is a key way that corporate interests work to gain influence with lawmakers. Federal law requires disclosure of bundled contributions above $24,000.

The DCCC’s February total shatters previous records and builds on a trend of the Democrats’ increasing reliance on lobbyist bundling for their funds. January’s $3.6 million was itself a high-water mark, and as recently as 2023, monthly lobbyist bundling reported by the DCCC was generally much lower, typically in the tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars.

The party out of power grows stronger on the hypothetical midterm-election ballot as the year moves toward Election Day.

A president isn’t on the midterm ballot, but his/her popularity and the perception of how the country is doing factor in to how voters vote in a midterm election.

California University Cancels Gubernatorial Debate Because Candidates Were All White– www.louderwithcrowder.com

Blurb:

USC was set to hold a debate for California’s gubernatorial candidates. There was no problem with this, so a disgruntled candidate made one up. Subsequently, the event was canceled less than 24 hours before the scheduled time because the candidates were too white for the left.

According to The Desert Sun:

Former U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra, a Democratic candidate for governor, accused USC of using an “arbitrary formula that favors wealthy candidates” and said the criteria resulted in the exclusion of all candidates of color from the debate.

In other words, Becerra was beside himself, as he could not comprehend how he did not meet this “viability” score.

Maybe, just maybe, the reason he did not qualify for the debate had nothing to do with skin color and everything to do with the fact that he is polling at 3%.

USC said it stood by the independence of the data-driven formula used to determine candidate “viability,” but acknowledged the controversy had become a distraction from issues voters care about.

“We recognize that concerns about the selection criteria for tomorrow’s gubernatorial debate have created a significant distraction from the issues that matter to voters,” the university said, adding that it would “look for other opportunities to educate voters on the candidates and issues”.

Virginia Democrats’ Gerrymandering Scheme May Blow Up in Their Faces – PJ Media– pjmedia.com

Blurb:

In a stunning turn of events, Virginia Democrats are discovering that their effort to gerrymander their state could blow up in their faces.

The April 21 special election referendum is one month away, and Democrats who once crusaded against partisan map-rigging are sweating bullets, because it looks as if voters won’t approve their plan to eliminate four Republican-held seats and make Virginia one of the most heavily gerrymandered states in the country. They assumed this would be easy.

Even Gov. Abigail Spanberger signed on to the effort, despite her past opposition to gerrymandering. Back in 2019, she said, “gerrymandering is detrimental to our democracy, and it weakens the individual voices that form our electorates,” and insisted that “opposing gerrymandering should be a bipartisan priority.”

That quote hasn’t aged particularly well, and it could prove to be her major defeat as governor.

“Some supporters of the Virginia referendum acknowledge the challenge of convincing voters to back a gerrymandered map when Democrats, who several years ago backed the formation of the state’s bipartisan redistricting commission, have criticized Republicans for similar moves,” NBC News reports. “Virginia voters are also not accustomed to going to the polls in April, when Democrats scheduled the special election, making turnout particularly unpredictable.”

While the Supreme Court on Monday expressed skepticism about states accepting mail-in ballots that arrive after Election Day, an overwhelming majority of voters have already decided against the practice, according to a recent poll conducted just days before the high court heard oral arguments in Watson v. RNC.

As The Federalist’s Shawn Fleetwood reported, Watson “deals with a challenge to a Mississippi law authorizing absentee ballots to be accepted up to five days after Election Day so long as they are postmarked before or on the day of the contest.”

A survey of 1,600 likely voters conducted on behalf of the Honest Elections Project earlier this month found that 93 percent of Republicans, 83 percent of Independents, and 74 percent of Democrats agree ballots “should be received by Election Day.” While overall, 83 percent of those surveyed agree with this deadline, a significant majority — 57 percent — “strongly agree.”

The survey also found that 60 percent of likely voters agree officials should not count mail-in ballots if they are “received after polls close on Election Day.” This includes 80 percent of Republicans and, although not a majority, a significant 42 percent of Democrats.

A majority of respondents indicated that counting ballots received after Election Day polls are closed “endanger[s] public trust in elections.” Sixty percent total, including 79 percent of Republicans and 44 percent of Democrats, think this practice “makes it easier to cheat” in elections. However, an overwhelming 90 percent of Republicans and 68 percent of Democrats say requiring ballots to be received “by the end of Election Day makes elections more secure.”

That’s how many more ballots were counted than were cast in Riverside, California.

Let that sink in. If tens of thousands of ballots can appear out of nowhere in a single county, how many elections—local, state, even federal—have been compromised? How many outcomes were decided not by voters, but by a broken system no one wants to examine?

Passing the SAVE Act isn’t optional. It’s urgent. It’s the bare minimum to start restoring order to an election system that’s spiraling out of control.

ABC7: RIVERSIDE, Calif. (KABC) — Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco has launched an investigation into a potential discrepancy in the number of ballots cast in last year’s special election. On one hand, the Riverside County registrar of voters said the number of ballots counted by machines numbered more than 657,000. But an independent investigation by a group of concerned citizens shows the number of handwritten logs filled out by various elections officials and poll workers showed just more than 611,000 votes cast. “I’m not saying anyone is lying, or there’s a series of mistakes,” said Bianco at a news conference Friday morning. “I’m saying I don’t know.” “We’re not talking about ten, we’re not even talking about a thousand. We’re talking about the difference between having a perfect count, and a 45,800 vote difference. That’s massive,” he said. (ABC 7)

Supreme Court May Restrict States with Mail-In Ballot Laws Ahead of November Midterms › American Greatness– amgreatness.com

The U.S. Supreme Court yesterday heard oral arguments in a case over whether states may count mail-in ballots that are received after Election Day.

The court heard arguments in Watson v. Republican National Committee, a case from Mississippi that could also affect voters in 13 other states and the District of Columbia, which have varying grace periods for mail ballots.

According to Just the News, the Mississippi law, which was enacted in 2020 during COVID-19, allows for mail-in ballots to be counted up to five business days after an election, as long as they are postmarked by Election Day.

The Supreme Court’s conservative majority appeared to be skeptical of state laws that allow a grace period for for mail-in ballots that arrive at election offices after Election Day, citing concerns about fraudulent ballots, as well as state laws that may run afoul of Congressional statutes establishing Election Day as a holiday for federal offices.

Justice Samuel Alito was particularly doubtful about state laws creating a grace period and pointed to “Independence Day, [Washington’s] Birthday and Election Day” all being specific days rather than a longer period of time.
