BCRA unlikely to survive the Parliamentarian? Hold your horses.

Good afternoon from Capitol Hill. They’re baaaaack. Well, almost. The Senate returns to Washington this week, while the House will be back next week. But looming over Congress’s return is the September 30th government funding deadline and all the drama that entails. Reports indicate Democrats are considering a continuing resolution (a CR, which is a […]

In the aftermath of the unprecedented August, 2022 raid on President Donald Trump’s personal residence, it is clear that the FBI has become a puppet of the left. But who pulls the strings? The Department of Justice and the deeply ingrained leftist attorneys and bureaucrats who operate within. Perhaps no one has better insight into […]

Good afternoon from Capitol Hill. Both the House and Senate are still out of session, which means the city is quiet as we all soak up the waning days of summer. D.C. is sleepy, but the news cycle is not. Mark Zuckerberg made news last week, confirming that Facebook suppressed circulation of the New York […]

Cleta on Bannon’s War Room Recruits Army of Poll Workers to counter Biden’s leftist push to use taxdollars for partisan political activity  Cleta Mitchell, tell us about the piece and particularly what you guys are doing now in conjunction with the RNC cause every time you have these summits, we send people, I get tremendous […]

How the CPI became the most powerful messaging force in the MAGA universe July 21, 20221:49 PM ET Heard on Fresh Air Transcript Journalist Maggie Severns explains how the Conservative Partnership Institute helped push the Republican party further to the right and became what she calls a “clubhouse” for insurrectionists.….. GROSS: Let’s talk about Cleta […]

Lawyer Who Plotted to Overturn Trump Loss Recruits Election Deniers to Watch Over the Vote A central figure in the scheme to reverse the 2020 election is mobilizing grass-roots activists into an “army of citizens” trained to aggressively monitor elections. By Alexandra Berzon May 30, 2022 In a hotel conference center outside Harrisburg, Pa., Cleta […]

RNC links up with ‘Stop the Steal’ advocates to train poll workers Recordings of recruitment “summits” show party officials working with Cleta Mitchell and other leaders of Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 election. Recordings indicate the Republican National Committee is relying on people who have spread false or unproven claims of irregularities and conspiracies […]

Good afternoon from Capitol Hill. There continue to be more questions than answers as it relates to the FBI raid on Mar-A-Lago. However, this morning Judge Bruce Reinhart rejected the Justice Department’s argument to keep the affidavit under seal. The affidavit would likely describe, among other things, the assertion of probable cause that President Trump […]

Good afternoon from Capitol Hill. In an absolutely shocking event with no historical precedent, the FBI last Monday raided the Florida home of former president Donald Trump. According to the release of the warrant (but, critically, not the affidavit), the raid was based on a dispute over Trump’s handling of classified documents, and in fact […]

The Department of Justice is supposed to be nonpartisan, dedicated solely to equal justice under law. With the unprecedented raid this week of former President Trump’s home and office at Mar-a-Lago by the FBI, authorized by Attorney General Merrick Garland and FBI Director Christopher Wray, we are witnessing the complete abandonment of any pretense of […]

Good afternoon from Capitol Hill. After a little more than 15 hours of vote-a-rama, the Senate yesterday passed the $740 billion reconciliation bill by a vote of 51 to 50, with Vice President Kamala Harris breaking a tie vote. All previous skeptics of the large reconciliation package – Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV), Sen. Kyrsten Sinema […]

2020 was the first time an election was conducted by mass vote-by-mail. It was a train wreck. According to federal data, election officials do not know what happened to nearly 15 million mail ballots in 2020. Some of these ballots were blowing in the winds on Nevada roads, and some were in stacks on apartment […]

Good afternoon from Capitol Hill. As of Saturday, President Biden is in quarantine after testing positive for COVID-19 – again. Biden has been vaccinated four times and has a so-called “rebound” case after taking the Pfizer antiviral, Paxlovid. The White House reports that he has no symptoms. Down the street, the House is in recess. […]

Knowledge is power, and transparency is knowledge. The Voter Reference Foundation publishes voter lists that are already lawful public information, but often kept from the public by high fees from secretaries of state. How a person voted is not revealed; but the voter database is a critical tool for voter roll maintenance.  As usual, Democrats blocked this effort […]

Election laws that enhance voting safeguards increase voter confidence, assure people their personal vote will count, and thereby increase voter turnout. The move toward voter ID, signature verification and hardening penalties against vote fraudsters is a common-sense, pro-American, pro-voter plan. Despite the left’s senseless talking points that everything good is bad, the American people know […]

Good afternoon from Capitol Hill. I’m back in the host seat after my husband and I welcomed our baby boy in early June. Thank you all for your well wishes. The three of us are getting on marvelously (and with a lot of coffee!). Congress is back and with a major to-do list. Longtime Hill-watchers […]

Only in a liberal alternate universe does the President of the United States sue a state over that state’s adherence to federal law, but that is exactly what the Biden Justice Department is doing to Arizona. It is a federal crime for non-citizens to vote in federal elections, and Arizona recently further defined its procedures […]

To design a misleading message you can make stuff up or leave stuff out.  A recent report from a group of (self-proclaiming) Republicans who reside deep in the swamp arguably did both in an attempt to persuade anyone outside their own cabal that vote fraud is not a threat to our liberty. Each co-author had a […]

A self-described “political nerd” at a young age, native Louisianan Kyle Ardoin recognized public service was a role for people of integrity who respect the rule of law. As Louisiana’s Secretary of State, Secretary Ardoin has been ahead of the curve on critical issues that impact election integrity for all the state’s voters. In 2020, and […]

Wisconsin’s election code unequivocally bans ballot drop boxes in the Badger State. Yet after the Wisconsin Election Commission overstepped every aspect of its authority by allowing ballot drop boxes in the 2020 election, three Wisconsin State Supreme Court justices disagreed that state law was binding in the case of drop boxes. Fortunately for Wisconsin voters, the majority […]

When President Biden issued an Executive Order in March of 2021, directing every federal agency to use taxpayer dollars and federal employee work hours for a liberal Get-Out-The-Vote effort, he likely hoped that: 1. Nobody would notice; and 2. States would not push back. Fortunately, the President was wrong on both counts, and now a […]

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has now appointed the Director of the state’s Office of Election Crimes and Security, the first of its kind in the nation. The new director, Judge Pete Antonacci, is well known in election integrity circles as a person of great integrity — and fearlessness — when it comes to election security. […]

Good afternoon from Capitol Hill. Both houses of Congress are out this week for the Independence Day recess – giving America the badly needed birthday present of not making things worse for a few days! The biggest news of the week comes from Texas. Several counties along the southern border have declared the relentless influx […]
