[JustTheNews] President Donald Trump on Tuesday announced a fraud investigation into California as a probe into large-scale fraud in Minnesota heats up.
"California, under Governor Gavin Newscum, is more corrupt than Minnesota, if that’s possible??? The Fraud Investigation of California has begun. Thank you for your attention to this matter!" Trump posted on Truth Social.
Trump did not provide any details into the investigation. The announcement comes in the wake of revelations of mass fraud in Minnesota linked to the Somali expat community in Minneapolis.
Gov. Tim Walz, D-Minn., on Monday announced he would not seek reelection amid the scandal.

It's about damn time. Newsom is a full on frickin' sociopath, a slithering reptile. He's as crooked as they come.

Ask Newsom where all the money for the homeless went. Ask him where all the money for the train to nowhere went. Ask him why the state let Pacific Palisades burn. Ask him about sweetheart deals for developers. Oh, and what about the crumbling freeways? He raised the tax on gasoline to fix the freeways but they are far from fixed. And the water...what about the water?

If you try to arrest all the frauds in California, you're gonna need a bigger detention facility.
Something about the size of Nevada, which is next door, so it's convenient.

Harmeet had a large turnover in Civil Rights when she took office. I don’t think that happened across the board in the DOJ. The investigation will be like the Mueller, Huber and Durham investigations- lots of sound and fury signifying nothing.

Super lots of sound and fury signifying nothing. Stall until 2027 with expectation of a return to full Deep State control of all but the veto and pardon pens.

We used to do underground nuke testing. Why not underground detention centers. No need to despoil the landscape. Besides, I bet Elon Musk would jump at the chance to build an underground city.
Germany’s foreign intelligence service (BND) secretly monitored phone calls of U.S. President Barack Obama for several years, intercepting communications from Air Force One.
The surveillance ended in 2014 and was not authorized by Chancellor Angela Merkel.
…Bundesnachrichtendienst, the Federal Intelligence Service…
exploited weak aircraft encryption, kept transcripts tightly restricted, and destroyed them after use.
It remains unclear when the spying began or who in the Chancellery knew about it.

And yet, knowing at least some of his secrets, they still strongly preferred him the Republicans before and after, to whom they no doubt also secretly listened.

They listened to radio frequencies that were used to transmit "weakly encrypted" communication.
IOW no real effort was made by the US to keep this communication secret.
This would have been a way for the Obama administration to convey messages and perhaps leak or feed information while maintaining not-too-plausible deniability.

It is as wide as the Epstein stuff as well as the smurfing by Act Blue and Win Red. Because it involves powerful people from both parties there is little chance that the issue will be looked in to in any significant way. What we really need is some type of federal bureau that investigates stuff like this.

In a way you gotta feel sorry for the Donks - first USAID, then the Somali Soprano's thing, now the Maduro Mess... If we start getting into the Chinese and Qatar revenue streams, there'll be more jumpers in the US Gov't than ever were in 1929.
like in the case of the ActBlue smurfing, the criminal act would be the one committed by the agent who laundered the funds, not the people who received the funds

HUGE: Postal Service Releases Final Report – Contract Driver Jesse Morgan Vindicated – Report CONFIRMS He Hauled Trailer of Ballots from Bethpage, NY to PA in Late October 2020 https://t.co/EvLkF7Vl40
#2
My question is whether the ballots were filled out and what was the actual date. For instance, I am what’s called a VLM for an Ohio precinct. That’s basically admitting to being a sucker. To prepare for the election I pick up the ballots for my precinct the Saturday before the election in a sealed container. That would have been October 31. The ballots are in plastic packs of 100. The county issues me the number I would need for all registered voters voted.
Because of local races, my ballots are specific to my Ohio precinct and can be used nowhere else. The ballots also have a serialized stub.
There is no way that my county is receiving printed ballot packs via marginally reliable USPS shipment in late October and getting my container pack along with 400 other precincts. The ballots also could not be used for absentee ballots based on the timetable.
Obviously, the truck driver doesn’t know whether the ballots are filled out, but the late shipment is extremely suspect just by the date. Remember, there is no such thing as a generic ballot that can be used just in case turnout is heavy. Every printed ballot can only be used in a unique precinct. Late ballots cannot be used for absentees because they haven’t been mailed and received back on time. The due date for mailing out ballots is in early October.
The most likely case for these ballots is that they were filled out by machine and packed by precinct to be assigned to voters who did not vote after ERIC was queried at 3AM on the 4th. The electronic transactions to process these votes would have had to have been as absentees. There would be no record of mailing or receiving these ballots. The paper trail will not stand scrutiny if the records or ballots can be got to.

Fascinating, Supe. I found, for others uninformed - The Electronic Registration Information Center (ERIC) is a nonprofit, nonpartisan membership organization created by and comprised of state election officials from around the United States. Founded in 2012, ERIC is funded and governed by states that choose to join.

My take is that they war-gamed their response after 2016 to do the ERIC deal specifically in Soros controlled counties. Fake voter records alone proved to not be enough for a Hillary victory. Non-voter records had to be matched to fake ballots. The 1000 mules are all for fake voters. Those would have not required special scanning. The simultaneous freeze was the tell on the ERIC system use. The stuff with Ruby in Fulton County was not part of the overall plan. Her group was scanning the same ballots multiple times not matching them to voter records. The coordination between multiple counties in multiple states with secretaries of state, governors and judges blocking access to records and ballots is a RICO case.

I really hope that the reason they snatched Mudero was to ask him questions during the discovery phase about Dominion tabulation of the results of the 2020 election remotely on websites in Venezuela
This is the listed location of the auditing firm that performed the audits for both the Minnesota and Ohio on the NGOs we have linked to potential fraud.

We’re getting to the bottom of all of this corruption. It looks like Chuggabilly at Bending Sporks is on it. You would think that journalists might also be interested at some point.

More than two years after Illinois eliminated cash bail under the SAFE-T Act, statewide crime data shows no increase in violent crime, but law enforcement leaders in rural parts of the state say the reform has created new public safety and addiction-treatment challenges that statistics alone do not capture.
[FoxNews] Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Texas, said "f--- you" to the Supreme Court over its decision to temporarily uphold Texas' new congressional districts.
In a video posted to her YouTube account on Sunday, Crockett commented on what she claims are efforts by President Donald Trump and the Republican Party to "rig the system" ahead of the 2026 midterm elections using redistricting tactics.
"Obviously, Trump is still doing his bidding with these state Houses and state Senates and governor's mansions to try to rig the system," Crockett said. "Kudos to Indiana for saying f--- you. Kudos to California for saying we're going to fight back."
She continued, "Definitely kudos to the Trump justice who wrote the 160-page opinion denouncing what took place in Texas and f--- you to the Supreme Court for what they did as well as, you know, we'll see what happens in some other places."
The Supreme Court issued an order in December keeping Texas Gov. Greg Abbott’s redrawn districts in place ahead of the November elections. The new congressional districts are expected to add up to five new GOP House seats.
The new congressional maps also move Crockett out of her current district, which likely factored into her decision to launch a Senate bid shortly after the Supreme Court decision.

I understand that Richard Nixon use a lot of expletives in the Watergate Tapes. I understand that the way politicians talk behind closed doors can be salty. I confess to using the ocaisional obscenity myself. But I think we should have some decorum in our public discourse from both Democrats and Republicans. I believe that we should guard against the decline into the kind of crude and vulgar society that Jasmine Crocket represents.

You can't play by polite rules after a decade of calling your political opposition Hitler, Nazis, encouraging violence against those not of your cult, weaponizing government agencies against them. They've shown you by their actions what they respond to. Decorum will only return after a lot of blood is spilled. That is human history.
[GeorgiaRecord] Huge win in court: the motion to dismiss the case - filed by the Wisconsin Election Commission and the corrupt Administrator Meagan Wolfe - was denied!
Now: full discovery can proceed where sworn depositions will be taken of the Election Commission employees and officers, of David Becker, of ERIC personnel, of vendors!!!!
The Election Commission and ERIC are unlawfully giving away voters personally identifiable information to CEIR (Becker's other company).
In fact it is criminal - just as if your bank gave some non-profit YOUR social security number, birthdate, driver's license number. And never told you either. This is happening to you if you live in an ERIC state.
This shows another major mistake by Speaker of the Wis. Assembly Robin vos who is the "brainchild" of this mess. He is the one who got ERIC into Wisconsin back around 2014.
ERIC is helping illegals get registered to vote.
This is a huge win as what ERIC and the Sec. of States (the Wis. Election Commission in our state) are really doing is inflating the voter rolls; registering illegals; forcing solicitations to be sent out - at taxpayers' expense - in an attempt to register liberals.

Prosecutors said Bennett defrauded taxpayers after she obtained COVID-19 unemployment benefits, despite her business remaining open during the pandemic.
She was charged with one count of false statements.
According to WSB-TV, Bennett was released on a $10,000 bond.

If ERIC is scrutinized by the DOJ, it will dissolve. Farming out the voting roles to an NGO is a bad idea. When the NGO is a sock puppet for the DNC it’s a worse idea. When they are blocking cleaning up the voter roles and may participated in 2020 cheating they are the worst idea.

A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
