This 'may' seem radical, but vote harvesting should be grounds for summary execution. The more summary, the better. That will stop that crap in its tracks. Hey, I can wish.

[HotAir] Good Lord almighty. This is turning into one of those days.
I finish a post, think 'Let's see what Europe's doing to themselves,' and just then WHAMMY.
The whackos in California come through again.
I can't get away from these people and their never-ending trainwreck.

[FoxNews] Ashley Williams said she could not recall things 'an untold number of times,' a source said
Ashley Williams, a longtime ally of former President Joe Biden, met with House investigators behind closed doors for nearly six hours Friday as Republicans probe allegations the Democrat's top aides hid his mental decline.
A source familiar with the transcribed interview told Fox News Digital Williams said she did not "recall" various things "an untold number of times."
"Examples include she could not recall if she spoke with President Biden in the last week, if teleprompters were used for Cabinet meetings, if there were discussions about President Biden using a wheelchair, if there were discussions about a cognitive test, if she discussed a mental or physical decline of President Biden, if she ever had to wake President Biden up and how she got involved with his 2020 campaign," the source said.
Williams told House investigators Biden is fit to be president today, the source said.
The lady does not sound competent to work in the White House. White House aides need to be sharp, and with such a poor memory and lack of insight she can’t possibly be.
In addition to whether senior aides covered up Biden's alleged decline, House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., is looking into whether any presidential orders were signed via autopen without the former commander in chief's knowledge.
Any allegations of wrongdoing so far have been denied by the ex-president's allies.
But Republican investigators have pointed to Biden's disastrous June 2024 debate and subsequent revelations in the media that there were more concerns from Biden's inner circle about his fitness for office than previously known.
Williams, however, argued he was in command of himself during that debate, the source said.
The former White House aide said nothing to reporters when entering or leaving the committee meeting room for her voluntary interview.
Fox News Digital reached out to Williams' lawyers for their account of events inside the room.
It was a staff-led meeting, but Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Texas, briefly stopped in for just under 30 minutes to show "solidarity" with the witness, the progressive told reporters afterward.
"I do think that it is important that I show up because if they are going to make allegations about the former commander in chief, egregious allegations they continue to wage, I want to make sure that I'm in the room to correct the record because a lot of times they like to mischaracterize things," she said.
When asked by Fox News Digital if the interview was still ongoing as she exited, Crockett answered, "It's still going. I'm leaving early. I've got to get to another thing."
The source who spoke with Fox News Digital said Crockett had come in during the GOP's questioning session and did not ask any questions herself. Fox News Digital reached out to her office for a response.
Williams is a longtime Biden ally whose time with the Democrat goes back to assisting second lady Jill Biden during the Obama administration, according to a 2019 profile of Biden staffers.
Williams later worked for Biden’s 2020 campaign and presidential transition team. She served as his trip director before being hired by the White House as deputy director of Oval Office operations and a special assistant to the president.
[NYP] A senior Trump administration official said Friday that Fed Chair Jerome Powell is "considering resigning" as pressure grows for an investigation into whether he lied to Congress about the central bank’s "Palace of Versailles" renovations to its headquarters in Washington, DC.
Bill Pulte, the chair of US government-backed mortgage lenders Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, posted on X that he heard "reports" of Powell wavering about finishing his term — without providing any evidence.
"I think this will be the right decision for America, and the economy will boom," the former journalist and private equity titan said.
🚨#BREAKING: FBI Director Kash Patel is now considering resignation if Pam Bondi remains and Dan Bongino is removed, according to the Daily Wire. pic.twitter.com/DMqHGlTJxY
[Independent] FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino wasn’t at work Friday after he clashed with Attorney General Pam Bondi over the Epstein files, according to a new report.
Bongino clashed with Bondi at the White House on Wednesday over the recent memo from the FBI and Justice Department revealing that Jeffrey Epstein did not keep a "client list," Axios reports. The memo also confirmed that Epstein died by suicide in a New York City jail cell on August 10, 2019, following years of conspiracy theories surrounding the disgraced financier’s death.
The move came a month after billionaire Elon Musk accused President Donald Trump of appearing in the so-called Epstein files, which are redacted court documents that name his alleged associates and victims. Epstein died shortly after he was indicted on federal sex trafficking charges.
Bondi confronted Bongino over a NewsNation article which reported that he and FBI Direction Kash Patel said they wanted more information about the Epstein files released earlier, but were held back from doing so, Axios reported.
Bongino reportedly told Bondi he didn’t leak that information.
White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, Deputy Chief of Staff Taylor Budowich and Patel all witnessed the clash, according to the outlet.

Okay. Bondi has lost whatever shine she had (not that she was the (shiniest) but I don't want to see her kicked to the curb. I would prefer Patel and Bongino remain in place. Idealism has limits IMHO. I am disappointed in Bondi's overall performance to date; she seems squishy, too political, but maybe not to a fatal degree. Dear President Trump, please knock some heads together. Thank you.

Let's see what happens over the next couple weeks re: DOJ / FBI investigation into the wide conspiracy against Trump by former senior officials. This whole Epstein mess, truly frustrating, is being used to sabotage the team ahead of what might be charges filed ....

Jesus Christ, boys & girls, just how can anyone be surprised?
In one way, I hope Patel & Bongino resign and leave the Pfizer-Trump administration cesspool. Besides, that might be just what the deep state wants; on the other hand, I hope they stay and continue to be thorns. Surely a coincidence, but didn't the Comey-Brennan news hot just the other day? But I digress....
