Iowa Identified 87 Self-Reported Noncitizens Who Have Already Cast Ballots In Elections

Published

Iowa’s elections chief revealed on Tuesday that his office has identified 87 individuals who self-reported they are noncitizens after already casting ballots in elections.

“It is absolutely critical that eligible citizens are able to vote and we are not disenfranchising any eligible voters,” Secretary of State Paul Pate said in a statement.

According to an office press release, the 87 foreign nationals were discovered as part of a regular audit of the state’s voter rolls. The analysis also uncovered 67 self-reported noncitizens who registered to vote, but did not cast ballots in elections. The names of these individuals are being turned over “to the Iowa Attorney General and the Iowa Department of Public Safety for potential prosecution,” according to Pate.

The audit additionally found 2,022 people “who have self-reported they are not citizens and voted or registered to vote after self-reporting.” Pate Communications Director Ashley Hunt Esquivel reportedly said, as described by the left-wing Iowa Capital Dispatch, “there may be individuals in this category who have been naturalized as U.S. citizens since reporting their status to the Iowa [Department of Transportation], and legally eligible to vote.”

Pate indicated in the release that his office has provided instructions to county auditors to ensure only authorized U.S. citizens have their votes tabulated in the 2024 election. County auditors are to direct their poll workers to “challenge the ballots” cast by these individuals should they vote in the November contest. According to the secretary, these voters, whose eligibility remains in question, will

Ex-Girlfriend: Kamala Harris’ Husband Slapped Me In The Face

Published

on

The alleged ex-girlfriend of Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff has come forward accusing him of slapping her across the face, according to a report released Thursday.

Speaking with the Daily Mail, the woman, who has reportedly chosen to remain anonymous, contended that the outlet’s prior reporting about the incident in question is true. As The Federalist’s Tristan Justice previously noted, three friends of the alleged victim claimed to the Daily Mail that Emhoff — the husband of Vice President Kamala Harris — “struck the woman named under the pseudonym ‘Jane’ following a glitzy night out at the 2012 Cannes Film Festival in France.”

The alleged victim’s friends also provided photos, “other documents and communications corroborating elements of the story,” according to the outlet.

Described by the Daily Mail as a “successful New York attorney,” the accuser reportedly did not want to go on the record at the time the outlet published its first story on the alleged incident. According to the Daily Mail, she changed her mind after witnessing Emhoff’s “alleged hypocrisy by claiming to be a feminist in media interviews, [which] finally became too much for her.”

“What’s frightening for a woman that’s been on the other end of it, is watching this completely fabricated persona being portrayed,” she said. “He’s being held out to be the antithesis of who he actually is. And that is utterly shocking.”

Emhoff is a central figure in his wife’s presidential campaign, and legacy media have attempted to cast him as a model of masculinity and

Democrats Peddle Conspiracies About Trump’s Age In Desperate Final Push

Published

on

A pair of medical emergencies delayed a Pennsylvania town hall with former President Donald Trump this month and kicked off a round of conspiracies about the Republican nominee’s age.

“Trump Bobs His Head to Music for 30 Minutes in Odd Town Hall Detour,” The New York Times headlined its coverage.

“After multiple interruptions, Donald Trump cut off questions and seemed to decide that it would be more enjoyable for all concerned — and, it appeared, for himself — if he fired up his campaign playlist,” the Times reported.

The delay provoked headlines across mass media uncritically depicting Trump as a senior who is suffering the same cognitive decline that ultimately forced President Joe Biden out of his race for reelection this summer.

“Trump’s Bizarre Turn At Town Hall Has Critics Asking New Questions About His Health,” The Huffington Post titled its coverage.

“Trump sways and bops to music for 39 minutes in bizarre town hall episode,” The Washington Post stated.

“Is Trump okay?” asked The Week. “Former president’s mental health is firmly back in the spotlight after ‘bizarre’ town hall event.”

“This should freak everybody out,” said Whoopi Goldberg on “The View.” “This freaked me out. He’s freaked me out a lot, but this really upset me.”

Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign seized on the moment to characterize the 78-year-old ex-commander-in-chief as cognitively deteriorating in the final moments of his third presidential run.

“Trump appears lost, confused, and frozen on stage as multiple songs play for 30+ minutes,”

Here’s How The Media Are Lying Right Now: John Kelly And The New York Times Edition

Published

on

Everything about that highly promoted New York Times “interview” with former Trump White House Chief of Staff John Kelly — a general, if you haven’t heard! — reeked of fakery. But a piece of audio from the recorded phone conversations between Kelly and the Times reporter that wasn’t released until two days after the article proves just how artificial it truly was.

The original article was published on Tuesday and included a mix of audio snippets and text quotes of Kelly, presumably offering his answers to questions that the reporter, Michael Schmidt, was asking. At the very bottom was a sound clip labeled, “Kelly on the Importance of Character Over Policy.”

“I’m not recommending anything to anybody,” Kelly is heard telling Schmidt. “I’m just saying — other than, that when you’re looking to vote for someone, regardless, you’ve got to, you’ve got to look at the character and all those kinds of things and then start looking at the individual’s policies.” (Must be nice to live so comfortably that you can afford to vote first and foremost based on whether someone seems pleasant enough rather than how that person’s decisions would literally change your life and your loved ones’ lives.)

In Thursday’s edition of the Times’ “The Daily” podcast, however, there’s a more extended version of that recording that precedes Kelly’s remarks. In that version, Schmidt says something first. “Is there anything else that we need to talk about or is this enough?” he says to Kelly. “I think it’s plenty,” Kelly replies.
