So You Think Trump has a Chance?

The Perfect Storm Explained: Drivers Licenses for Illegals + Noncitizen Voting + Mail-in Ballots + Private Funding of Elections + Partisan Hack SOSs.

Does undocumented immigrant mean illegal alien?
If you hesitated before answering yes, you are a victim of progressive doublespeak. Undocumented immigrants are illegal aliens. Noncitizens, whether here legally or illegally, are not allowed to vote in our nation’s elections. It’s a felony for noncitizens to vote, and the U.S. and state constitutions clearly prohibit foreigners from voting. Even so, "The Department of Justice appears to be using taxpayer dollars to have jails and the U.S. Marshals Service encourage incarcerated felons and noncitizens to register to vote," stated a letter to the DOJ from Mississippi’s leading election official, Secretary of State Michael Watson (R).

Massachusetts to spend additional $245 million for shelters as migrant crisis worsens
[JustTheNews] The Massachusetts House of Representatives approved an additional $245 million for emergency family shelters as an increasing migrant population in the state continues to overflood the system.

House members are trying to limit shelter stays to nine months as part of the bill. The current average is 13-14 months.

Governor Maura Healey attempted to take a burden off the program last fall by capping the number of families to 7,500. But as of last week, there are still over 700 families on the waitlist, NBC News reported.

Massachusetts is the only state with a “right-to-shelter” law. However, state officials are concerned that the system currently in place is unsustainable. “It's been growing by the day, month to month,” House Ways and Means Committee Chair Aaron Michlewitz said. “This is a way for us to find a way to continue to do the program, keep it as one of the most beneficial programs in the entire country on this discussion, but also make sure that we're creating a system that is sustainable.”

Some Massachusetts municipalities are concerned about the growing influx of migrants. A letter to Governor Healey from the town of Stoughton last month details how the city has had to shoulder more migrants than it can maintain and more than most other Massachusetts communities. “When it was determined that certain communities including the Town of Stoughton would have larger consolidation facilities, the Town did not have any input,” Thomas Calter, Stoughton’s Town Manager, wrote.

The letter requests more state funding for the 230 migrant families the town is responsible for. “As a former State Rep.,” Calter said, “I understand that the State experienced a revenue shortfall and is most likely not in the position to directly reimburse communities like the Town of Stoughton for the unforeseen costs associated with housing migrants. If this is the case, I am respectfully requesting that you find another way to compensate the community.”

Media's Wall-To-Wall Coverage Of Trump ‘Bloodbath' Comment Delivers Zero Context
[DailyWire] Multiple media outlets, liberal pundits, and pretty much everyone who can’t stand former President Donald Trump engaged in a virtual feeding frenzy over the weekend, frothing at the mouth over his campaign rally comment promising a “bloodbath” if his 2024 presidential bid is unsuccessful.

Anyone reading the headlines published by a number of mainstream outlets might believe that Trump was not just predicting, but calling for, political violence if he were to lose another election.

President Joe Biden’s reelection campaign openly accused Trump of wanting another riot on Capitol Hill — a repeat of what happened on January 6th, 2021.

The campaign blasted Trump as a “loser” who “doubles down on his threats of political violence,” adding, “He wants another January 6.”

But while those outlets and others were only too happy to share that one cherry-picked line — Trump predicts ‘bloodbath’ if he loses in November — they were equally happy to leave out the fact that at the time, he was specifically talking about the automobile industry and the economic impact of a company owned by Communist China building cars in Mexico to avoid U.S. tariffs

Here’s the full context of the “bloodbath” comment, which he said was addressed to Chinese President Xi Jinping:

Those big monster car manufacturing plants you are building in Mexico right now and you think you are going to get that — not hire Americans and you’re going to sell the car to us, no.

We’re going to put a 100% tariff on every single car that comes across the line, and you’re not going to be able to sell those guys if I get elected. Now, if I don’t get elected, it’s going to be a bloodbath for the whole – that’s gonna be the least of it. It’s going to be a bloodbath for the country. That’ll be the least of it.

I thought maybe if things got bad enough Trump would be elected and the bad times hung squarely on him. This latest NPC Firmware Update tell me they aren't wanting to take that chance.

Barack Obama visits 10 Downing Street for surprise talks (and tea) with British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak after White House downplayed reports of 'rivalry' with Biden
Wants his CDs back.
Barack Obama made a surprise appearance in Downing Street for talks with Prime Minister Rishi Sunak on Monday while across the pond, the White House played down reports of a rivalry between President Joe Biden and his old boss.

The former US president waved and smiled as he strolled up to the famous No10 door on Monday afternoon.

It comes after Axios reported Biden and Obama do not speak frequently, but behind closed doors, Biden talks about Obama a lot.

The report claimed Biden 'often measures himself against the man he served as vice president, current and former aides say.'

It stated there is a rivalry, particularly on Biden's side. But the White House pushed back on the reporting Monday.

'The two presidents, President Obama and President Biden, have a very good relationship,' said White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre. 'You all have seen it over the past several years.'

She said the two 'are like family to each other.'

Google has ‘interfered' with elections 41 times over the last 16 years, Media Research Center says
[FoxNews] ‘No organization has more control over information than Google,’ Brent Bozell told Fox News Digital

Google has "interfered" with major elections in the United States 41 times over the last 16 years, according to a new study from the Media Research Center.

"MRC researchers have found 41 times where Google interfered in elections over the last 16 years, and its impact has surged dramatically, making it evermore harmful to democracy. In every case, Google harmed the candidates – regardless of party – who threatened its left-wing candidate of choice," MRC Free Speech America vice president Dan Schneider and editor Gabriela Pariseau wrote in a summary of their findings.

"From the mouths of Google executives, the tech giant let slip what was never meant to be made public: That Google uses its "great strength and resources and reach" to advance its leftist values," they continued. "Google’s outsized influence on information technology, the body politic and American elections became evident in 2008. After failing to prevent then-candidate for president Donald Trump from being inaugurated following the 2016 election, Google has since made clear to any discerning observer that it has been — and will continue — interfering in America’s elections."

Google pushed back, insisting it has a "clear business incentive" to keep both sides happy and that safeguards ensure non-biased and accurate search results.

MRC Free Speech America, a division of the conservative Media Research Center, believes the most recent example was recorded after Google artificial intelligence Gemini "refused to answer questions damaging" to President Biden.

The group’s research found that from 2008 through February 2024, "Google has utilized its power to help push to electoral victory the most liberal candidates, regardless of party, while targeting their opponents for censorship."

Examples include appearing to favor Barack Obama over John McCain in 2008, favoring Obama over Mitt Romney in 2012, refusing to correct a "Google bomb" that "smeared" then-leading GOP primary candidate for president Rick Santorum, using its algorithm to exclude autofill results that were potentially damaging to Hilly Clinton in 2016, "not doing the same for then-candidates Donald Trump or Bernie Sanders," and working with partners to help likely pro-Clinton Latino voters go to the polls that same year, according to MRC Free Speech America.

Other examples cited by the MRC include disabling Tulsi Gabbard’s Ads account just as she became the most searched candidate following the first Democratic Party primary debate in 2020, suppressing news critical of Biden, concealing most Republican campaign websites for the 12 competitive Senate races in 2022, and aiding Biden in 2024 by "burying in its search results the campaign websites of every one of his significant opponents."

The study cites several other examples.

"Utilizing the many tools in its arsenal, Google aided those who most closely aligned with its leftist values from election cycle to election cycle since as far back as the 2008 presidential election. Meanwhile, it targeted for censorship those candidates who posed the most serious threat," Schneider and Pariseau wrote.

"While its interference was first evident in 2008, its meddling has turned into an organizational mission to ensure that its candidates win on election day," they continued. "Many studies reveal the results of the tech giant’s commitment."

Schneider and Pariseau cited AllSides and Dr. Robert Epstein, who performed additional research and found that "Google’s search algorithm likely shifted at least 2.6 million votes to Hillary Clinton" in 2016 and that "Google’s results and get-out-the-vote reminders favored Democrats and shifted the 2020 election results by at least 6 million votes."

Google strongly denied any wrongdoing.

"There is absolutely nothing new here - just a recycled list of baseless, inaccurate complaints that have been debunked by third parties and many that failed in the courts. Politicians on the left have a long history of making similar claims too. We have a clear business incentive to keep everyone using our products, so we have no desire to make them biased or inaccurate and have safeguards in place to ensure this. Numerous conservatives have been particularly successful in using our platforms to spread their message to a wide audience," a Google spokesperson told Fox News Digital.

Google has said it is restricting the types of election-related queries on Gemini out of an abundance of caution, directing users to Google Search instead. As for Gabbard’s ads, Google points to a federal judge dismissing a lawsuit she filed against the company on the matter.

Far Left Squad Member Cori Bush Blames Problems With Power Grid on White Supremacy and Climate Change
[Gateway] Far left squad member and Missouri Rep. Cori Bush is blaming issues with the U.S. power grid on white supremacy and climate change.

It’s amazing that this woman is a member of congress. She is so obviously not a serious person.

The country definitely has power grid issues, but they do not stem from the left’s favorite talking points and pet issues. This is just an attempt to take a real problem and use it to talk about the things she wants to talk about.

Trump attorneys file to disqualify Fani Willis from election fraud case despite prosecutor stepping aside
[NY Post] Former President Donald Trump’s defense team filed a motion on Monday seeking to dismiss and disqualify embattled Fulton County district attorney Fani Willis from the Georgia election fraud case.

Steve Sadow, Trump’s lead attorney in the case, asked the court to immediately remove Willis. The filing comes days after the judge overseeing the case ruled she could stay on as long as special prosecutor Nathan Wade stepped aside, following the revelation of their romantic relationship.

Sadow claims in his motion that action does not go far enough and is asking to appeal the decision.

“President Trump and seven defendants have jointly filed a motion requesting the Court to grant a certificate of immediate review of its order denying dismissal of the case and disqualification of Fulton County DA Willis,” Sadow said in a statement.

Alongisde Trump, seven of the 14 remaining defendants joined the motion: Rudy Giuliani, Mark Meadows, Robert Cheeley, Michael Roman, David Shafer, Harrison Floyd and Cathleen Latham.

“The motion further notes that the Court found Georgia case law lacks controlling precedent for the standard for disqualification of a prosecuting attorney for forensic misconduct. For these reasons among others, the Court’s Order is ripe for pretrial appellate review,” Sadow concluded.

The attorneys’ filing came after Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee gave Wade and Willis their ultimatum on Friday in a much anticipated ruling over the racketeering case.

Wade stepped down hours later, allowing Willis to stay on.

Schumer's ‘Rabbi’ is an Anti-Israel Activist Who Protested War on Hamas
[FrontPage] The media decided to defend Sen. Schumer’s attack on Israel and warning to spare Hamas and create a terrorist state by rushing out his ‘rabbi’ Rachel Timoner to claim that “he said what most of us think” and “what the overwhelming majority of American Jews are saying to each other”.

The first part of that is probably true.

Rachel Timoner is an activist with such anti-Israel groups as J Street, T’ruah
…a group of about 2000 leftwing political rabbis and cantors, it was founded in 2002 as Rabbis for Human Rights-North America, advocating for the rights of Palestinian prisoners in Israel and then against torture in GITMO and Abu Ghraib; in 2013 they split off and renamed themselves The Rabbinic Call for Human Rights-T’ruah. They do not support the BDS movement only because the effort does not distinguish between Israel proper and Israel in the Palestinian Territories, and otherwise advocate for a mixed salad of leftwing causes…
and co-founded the New York Jewish Agenda leftist organization alongside Sharon Kleinbaum who faced an exodus from her ‘temple’ after saying Kaddish for Hamas terrorists with a mission of fighting the city’s Orthodox Jews.

The latter isn’t because these anti-Israel extremists don’t represent Jews. They represent only the Jew-hating far Left.

Bringing out Timoner, the clergywoman of the leftist congregation Schumer attends, doesn’t help him. It reveals how bad he really is.

Let’s take a look at what Rachel Timoner has been up to.

Timoner took part in a recent anti-Israel ‘ceasefire’ rally while whining that, “continued war and Israeli occupation of Gaza will be an unmitigated disaster”.

Rachel Timoner signed on to a letter by the T’ruah anti-Israel hate group which claimed that “there is no military solution” and demanded that Biden “ensure that Israel does not invade Rafah” and finish off Hamas.

In the past, Rachel Timoner had signed on to a T’ruah/J Street letter defending BDS.

Timoner, the author of op-eds such as “Fellow Dykes: We Must Be Both Pro-Israel And Pro-Palestine”, tries to have it both ways, but she picked her side.

The side of those who murder Jews.

We know what Timoner is. Now what does tell us about what Schumer is?

“Schumer has attended Timoner’s synagogue near his home in Park Slope, Brooklyn for at least a decade. Timoner officiated his daughter’s wedding, blessed his three grandchildren and buried his father.”

This is what Schumer embraced as his guiding spiritual light.

A mere few weeks after the Hamas atrocities, Rachel Timoner was already scolding Israel in a sermon, warning that, “killing thousands of Palestinian civilians will not bring back the Israeli civilians.”

She repeated the same message in a New York Times op-ed.

T’ruah summed up Timoner’s remarks at one anti-Israel rally as, “American Jews must tell our govt we oppose this war and want an end to the occupation and a real political solution for Palestinians and Israelis.”

That’s the message Sen. Schumer took to the Senate. It’s not the message of American Jews, but of their leftist and Islamist enemies.

'This is the 'when did you stop beating your spouse' question': National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan fires back at reporter for asking why Biden 'shouted and swore' at staffers when he found out he was losing to Trump
National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan fired back Monday when a reporter asked him why President Joe Biden was 'shouting and swearing' at staff over sluggish poll numbers.

Fox News Channel's Peter Doocy called attention to an NBC News report that was released Sunday that said Biden 'began to shout and swear' when he found out his poll numbers had dropped in Georgia and Michigan over his handling of the war in Gaza.

At Monday's briefing Doocy asked Sullivan if Biden's uproar was caused by 'Netanyahu or about Hamas or about his poll numbers.'

'This is the "when did you stop beating your spouse" question,' Sullivan answered. 'Because I don't think he ever did that.'

Over Doocy's objections, Sullivan continued, 'You use that as the premise of your question, which is 'when he does that,' I've never seen him do that, shout or swear in response to that, so from my perspective that particular report is not correct.'
