Poll: Most Americans support requiring photo I.D., proof of citizenship to vote – The Center Square Source Link Excerpt:
(The Center Square) – Americans – Democrats, Republicans, and Independents – support both early voting policies as well as photo I.D. and proof of citizenship requirements for elections, according to a new poll.
Despite the ongoing divide between elected Republicans and Democrats over requiring photo I.D. to vote, a whopping 86% of Americans support it.
The poll comes just days from the presidential election with voting underway across the country.
Support varied by political party, with 98% of Republicans, 67% of Democrats, and 84% of Independents supporting requiring photo I.D. to vote.
Another 83% of Americans support “requiring people who are registering to vote for the first time to provide proof of citizenship.” By party, 96% of Republicans, 66% of Democrats and 84% of Independents agree.
Voter I.D. hits at the intersection of Republicans concerns about election integrity and illegal immigration, which has soared in recent years.
Many Republicans argue that illegal immigrant voting is a major issue and that those voters trend toward Democratic candidates.
Some Democrats have pushed back on voter I.D. efforts, saying they are an attempt to suppress or discourage certain groups from voting and that illegal immigrants are not allowed to vote. Republicans have pushed back saying Democrat officials have found workarounds to not enforce restrictions on illegal immigrants voting.
Texas AG Paxton files criminal referral against DOJ from ‘suspicious donations’ through Democratic group – Fox News Source Link Excerpt:
With Election Day just around the corner, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton fired off a criminal referral against the Biden administration’s Department of Justice alleging that a popular progressive fundraising platform was interfering in the presidential election.
“My investigation uncovered evidence showing that bad actors are likely using ActBlue’s platform to make illegal campaign contributions. It is illegal to engage in election fraud, and it is illegal to obscure one’s identity to flout election rules.” Paxton wrote in a X post Thursday.
“The Department of Justice must take immediate action to prevent illegal conduct in our elections,” he said.
PA Tech Glitch Warns Flawed Voter System Due For Replacement– thefederalist.com Source Link Excerpt:
No one should be shocked that Pennsylvania’s Statewide Uniform Registry of Electors (SURE) system went down for about 90 minutes Thursday morning. The computer system on which most voting activities in the state hinge is a mess, and the state has known this for years.
Speaking on “The Dom Giordano Show” on Philadelphia’s WPHT talk radio, Pennsylvania Secretary of State Al Schmidt described the SURE system as a voter registration database that county boards of elections interface with “all day long.”
When voters register, request a ballot, are sent a ballot, or vote, every move is marked in the Sure System. More than 9 million Pennsylvania residents, every person registered to vote, have data in the SURE System.
“We had an outage for about 90 minutes that prevented many counties from connecting to it earlier this morning, but has been back up for a while now,” Schmidt said. “It was like 9:45 to 11:15 this morning. Voters who applied to vote by mail, whether it’s in person or whatever else, could still do so. It didn’t prevent any of that.”
How Safe Are Our Elections? A Cyber Security Expert Gives Her ‘God’s Honest’ Opinion, and It’s Not Good. – PJ Media– pjmedia.com Source Link Excerpt:
A cyber security pro warns that “our voting systems are extraordinarily vulnerable. We need to address it now — while we still have a chance — because after Election Day, it’s going to be too late.”
Cyber security professional Monica Eaton knows what the nation’s up against in maintaining fraud-free elections because her companies attempt to do the equivalent of that every single day. But “in our professional opinion, our voting systems are extraordinarily vulnerable.”
Eaton is the founder and CEO of Chargebacks911, an anti-fraud company, and Fi911, a financial payments company, as well as chief information officer of Global Risk Technologies. She knows how hard it is to detect fraud in global finance with the constant swiping of cards all over the world and has “successfully protected over 15 billion digital transactions from every single state and territory in the United States of America—and 87 countries worldwide.”
Kamala Harris Uses White House to Incite Violence Against Trump by Calling Him a Hitler Lover – Kamala Harris, speaking from the White House’s Vice President’s Residence, told the American people an overt lie aimed at sowing hatred, anger, and fear in her troops that might inspire them to act violently and fraudulently to assure the evil man never gets in office again.
She perpetuated the false story spread by the DNC-CCP media that President Trump admired Hitler’s loyal Generals, saying, “So, yesterday, we learned that Donald Trump’s former chief of staff, John Kelly, a retired four-star general, confirmed that while Donald Trump was president, he said he wanted generals like Adolf Hitler had.”
“It is deeply troubling and incredibly dangerous that Donald Trump would invoke Adolf Hitler, the man who is responsible for the deaths of 6 million Jews and hundreds of thousands of Americans. All of this is further evidence for the American people of who Donald Trump really is. This is a window into who Donald Trump really is from the people who know him best, from the people who worked with him side by side in the Oval Office and in the Situation Room.”
Her rhetoric from the White House has led to one man, Representative Cory Mills (R-FL) to formally request the DOK investigate Kamala Harris for committing “potential criminal misconduct.”
He said in a letter, “While the Hatch Act, which prohibits using official resources to support partisan political campaigns, does not apply to the President and Vice President in civil provisions, it does not exempt them from criminal provisions.”
“In Federal law, it is a crime for any federal officer or employee to “use his official authority for the purpose of interfering with, or affecting, the nomination or the election of any candidate for the office of President, Vice President, Presidential elector, Member of the Senate, Member of the House of Representatives.”
Rep. Cory Mills Demands Biden-Harris Gestapo DOJ Investigate Kamala Harris for Potential Criminal Misconduct — Accuses Kamala of Using Official Authority to Interfere with 2024 Election | The Gateway Pundit– www.thegatewaypundit.com Source Link Excerpt:
Rep. Cory Mills (R-FL) has formally requested the Biden-Harris Gestapo Department of Justice (DOJ) to investigate Kamala Harris for potential criminal misconduct following a highly politicized press conference.
Mills is pointing to federal laws that prohibit any federal officer or employee from using their official authority to interfere with or influence an election—a line Harris crossed when she used the office of the Vice President to launch vicious attacks against Donald Trump.
On Wednesday, just 13 days before Election Day, Harris delivered a desperate three-minute unhinged tirade against Trump, invoking debunked smears and inflammatory rhetoric at the official residence of the Vice President, located at the Naval Observatory in Washington, D.C., flanked by the official seal of the Vice President.
Harris wasted no time in seizing on the outrageous claim, stating that Trump wanted a military that was “loyal to him personally” and suggesting that he would use the military to target American citizens who opposed him.
Harris went as far as to accuse Trump of comparing himself to Hitler.
“We know what Donald Trump wants. He wants unchecked power. The question, in thirteen days, will be what do the American people want?” Kamala said…
Mills’s letter, addressed to Garland, reads:
As you are likely aware, earlier today Vice President Kamala Harris gave what was billed as a “press conference” at the official VP residence. In the under three-minute speech VP Harris only made vicious political attacks on Republican Presidential Candidate and Former President, Donald J. Trump.
After making multiple defamatory references to Hitler and claiming he would use the American military to go after American citizens, she concluded saying, “We know what Donald Trump wants. He wants unchecked power. The question, in thirteen days, will be what do the American people want?”
While the Hatch Act, which prohibits using official resources to support partisan political campaigns, does not apply to the President and Vice President in civil provisions, it does not exempt them from criminal provisions.
In Federal law, it is a crime for any federal officer or employee to “use his official authority for the purpose of interfering with, or affecting, the nomination or the election of any candidate for the office of President, Vice President, Presidential elector, Member of the Senate, Member of the House of Representatives.”
Recognizing this concern and as Attorney General, you issued a strict prohibition to your political appointees from participating in campaign-related activities in any capacity.
As Attorney General, you answer to the President, but your oath is to the Constitution and the laws of the United States.
I ask that you investigate today’s questionless “press conference” as it appears to be a direct use of official authority to affect the upcoming election. Given the proximity to the election, the American people deserve timely answers.”

Kamala Harris Is Trying to Get Trump Shot at Again – PJ Media– pjmedia.com Source Link Excerpt:
In a shocking display of political desperation, Kamala Harris made another blatant Hail Mary attempt to stop Donald Trump. Only this time, her rhetoric might get him killed.
On Wednesday, the New York Times published a hit piece against Donald Trump, quoting his former Chief of Staff, John Kelly. Kamala Harris, seeking to capitalize on this weak story, spoke from the Vice President’s residence to address it.
“So, yesterday, we learned that Donald Trump’s former chief of staff, John Kelly, a retired four-star general, confirmed that while Donald Trump was president, he said he wanted generals like Adolf Hitler had,” she began. With this incendiary remark, she not only rehashed her stale talking points but also risked reigniting the dangerous narrative that has previously inspired attempts on Trump’s life.
“It is deeply troubling and incredibly dangerous that Donald Trump would invoke Adolf Hitler, the man who is responsible for the deaths of 6 million Jews and hundreds of thousands of Americans,” Kamala continued. “All of this is further evidence for the American people of who Donald Trump really is. This is a window into who Donald Trump really is from the people who know him best, from the people who worked with him side by side in the Oval Office and in the Situation Room.”
CNN Contributor Points Out Glaring Flaw In Kamala’s Latest Effort To Link President Trump To Hitler– wltreport.com Source Link Excerpt:
Time is running out before Election Day, and Democratic nominee Kamala Harris appears to be increasingly desperate.
As President Donald Trump’s advantage grows in nationwide and battleground state polls, Harris has latched on to a widely debunked claim that Trump once voiced his admiration for Adolf Hitler.
Not only did the Trump campaign unequivocally deny any such allegation, but CNN pundit Scott Jennings offered a scathing assessment of Harris’ latest line of attack.
“It is deeply troubling and incredibly dangerous that Donald Trump would invoke Adolf Hitler, the man who was responsible for the deaths of 6 million Jews and hundreds of thousands of Americans,” the Democrat presidential nominee said in her remarks, which oddly enough were delivered from the vice presidential residence.
While both the former president and his presidential campaign have responded accordingly, GOP strategist/political analyst Scott Jennings, fresh off of triggering his colleagues on the Doug Emhoff abuse scandal, brought up another great point during a Wednesday CNN segment about why Harris’ argument about Trump bombs so badly:
It probably will shock Kamala Harris and the rest of her campaign staff to learn that there are incumbent Democrat US Senators in this country right now running television ads touting all their work with this “modern-day Hitler.”
Harris Gives 3 Minute Speech to Repeat Disputed Story in The Atlantic– legalinsurrection.com Source Link Excerpt:
VP Kamala Harris decided to give a three minute speech repeating lies placed in The Atlantic on Tuesday.
No, Trump brought up Rommel. Maybe someone should remind Harris and everyone else that those in charge of the Allies even admired Rommel:
During the height of Rommel’s success in North Africa, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill sang his praises before the House of Commons. “We have a very daring and skillful opponent against us,” Churchill declared, “and, may I say across the havoc of war, a great general.” George Patton, Bernard Montgomery and other top Allied generals likewise expressed their respect for him, and Rommel responded in kind, saying of Patton that “we saw the most astonishing achievement in mobile warfare,” and that “Montgomery never made a serious strategic mistake.”
Harris says ‘yes’ when asked if she thinks Trump is a fascist at CNN town hall – apnews.com Source Link Excerpt:
Former President Bill Clinton made the case that Harris is a stronger candidate to tackle inflation than Trump, taking on an issue that has bedeviled the Democratic ticket during a speech to Black Democrats in Phoenix.
Trump complains about rising prices but only Harris has come forward with realistic plans to rein in costs for food, housing and energy, he said. He touted her proposals to crack down on price gouging, increase housing supply and support domestic production of both renewable energy and fossil fuels.
“What did she say? ‘Let’s solve the problem.’ What did he say? ‘Let’s lay the blame,’” Clinton said. “I’m telling you, if you want a president to do a real job, you have to find somebody who will take responsibility and find a better way.”
Clinton called Trump “mister brand and blame,” portraying him as a person at home attacking his rivals but not solving problems.

ABC’s Good Morning America went full bore against half the country on Wednesday, going all out with over 10 minutes (10:28) of hyperbolic tailspins eagerly touting as fact wild claims from former White House chief of staff John Kelly that Donald Trump is a fascist, danger to democracy and the American people, and enthralled with Adolf Hitler.In turn, they hurled nothing but venom toward Trump and his supporters as they were calmly soothed by Vice President Harris’s camp.
Co-host and former Clinton official George Stephanopoulos — whoviews defeating Trump as a duty — gushed over the “truly extraordinary breaking news this morning” of Kelly “speaking out with things you have never heard before from someone who has served a president.”

Former President Donald J. Trump, the GOP presidential nominee for 2024, has responded to reports published Tuesday in The Atlantic in which John Kelly, Trump’s former chief of staff, claimed that Trump wanted generals like Hitler and declared that Nazis did “some good things.”
On Truth Social, the GOP nominee slammed John Kelly as a “lowlife,” alleging on Wednesday that he had fabricated the story. The 45th president disputed Kelly’s allegations, which included the former general declaring that Trump met “the definition of a fascist.” Trump then thanked his supporters for coming to his defense.

Media Pushing Another Fake News Story about Trump Making Fun of Dead U.S. Soldier– lidblog.com Source Link Excerpt:
Fake news purveyor (that means liar) Jeffrey Goldberg is making a stab at an “October surprise” to help Democrats win the 2024 election with a false story about Trump supposedly disparaging a U,S, soldier who died in service.
Goldberg published his latest lie in The Atlantic with the claim that Trump made fun of a slain Mexican-American Army private when he was president the first time. The partisan liar claimed that the story came from Natalie Khawam, the attorney for the family of the slain soldier, 20-year-old Vanessa Guillén.
Guillén was murdered in 2020 by another soldier at Fort Hood. When her body was discovered and preparations were made to bury the soldier, Trump reportedly disparaged the dead soldier.
“It doesn’t cost 60,000 bucks to bury a fucking Mexican!” Goldberg claims Trump said of the Mexican-American soldier.
KJP Calls Trump A “Fascist” In Unhinged Rant During Press Briefing– www.louderwithcrowder.com Source Link Excerpt:
Many on the left are in crisis mode, as Kamala’s performance in this campaign was as retarded as she is. This typically would be nothing more than a personal problem but the Dems are trying to make it your problem, as the left pushes conspiracy theories with more evidence to disapprove it than back it up.
It’s unclear if the whole pretending Trump is “literally” Hitler was intended to win over swing voters in middle America but this tactic has not proven to bring the success the Dems hoped for. The left has thrown everything at Trump and slandered him into oblivion, and the fact that they think pretending Trump is “literally” Hitler will do anything to move the goalpost is not only pathetic but deeply unserious.
You cannot lie to voters for 8 years and expect them to believe this propaganda like its gospel. This didn’t work in 2016, it may or may not have worked in 2020, and it is definitely not working now. So while the left is also trying to bring Jan. 6 back as if anyone remotely cares, the Dems are resorting to an oldie but a good one, which is to call Trump a “fascist.”
According to Microsoft, Russia is working to spread fake news to help the Republicans win the 2024 election, while the Chinese are doing the same thing to help the Democrats win.
The Microsoft Report claimed, “Actors have parroted antisemitic messages, amplified accusations of corruption, and promoted opposition candidates. While not always resulting in high levels of engagement, these efforts demonstrate China’s sustained attempts influence U.S. politics across the board. History has shown foreign actors’ ability to rapidly distribute deceptive content can significantly impact public perception and electoral outcomes. With a particular focus on the 48 hours before and after Election Day, voters, government institutions, candidates, and parties must remain vigilant against deceptive and suspicious activity online.”

Kamala Harris Refused to Prosecute Voter Fraud Case Involving Chinese Communist Party Spy– slaynews.com Source Link Excerpt:
While serving as California’s attorney general, Vice President Kamala Harris refused to investigate and prosecute an election fraud case involving a suspected Chinese Communist Party spy.
Harris’s refusal to investigate the election tampering and interference scheme was exposed in a report from Breitbart.
Some of those same actors linked to the scheme had reportedly donated to Harris.
However, the report reveals that while serving as California’s top prosecutor, Harris only pursued Republicans for such infractions.
Harris, the Democrat presidential candidate, has tried to use her experience as the California attorney general to her advantage in the 2024 election.
She claims to have helped prevent Russian interference during the 2016 election in the name of ensuring “free and fair and open elections.”
Unfortunately, the reality is shaping up to be much different than her version.
Top election official in politically crucial Nevada county says she was forced out – Washington Times Source Link Excerpt:
The top election official in one of the nation’s most politically important counties said Wednesday she was forced out of her role just weeks before the November presidential election, disputing an official statement that she asked for a leave after experiencing “stress issues.”
The abrupt departure of Cari-Ann Burgess as the interim registrar of voters in northern Nevada’s Washoe County one month ago is the latest sign of turmoil in a county that has been roiled for four years by people pushing election conspiracy theories. Washoe, which includes Reno, is a swing county in a state where this year’s presidential contest is expected to be narrowly decided.
Burgess told The Associated Press in an interview that she had refused personnel changes sought by the county manager’s office and had offered to step down and return to her prior position as deputy. She said she was told that was not possible.
