DoD Report Hides How Many Taxpayer Dollars It Sends To Communist Chinese Labs

Published

on

The Department of Defense (DoD) Office of Inspector General (OIG) redacted “key findings” in the public version of a report on dangerous pathogen research conducted in Chinese labs that was being funded with American taxpayer dollars.

Sen. Joni Ernst, R-Iowa, filed a letter Tuesday asking the DoD to release the unredacted version of the Office of Inspector General (OIG) report and explain the taxpayer money sent to China to fund these experiments.

“With DoD secretly funding risky research on dangerous pathogens and diseases in China, this alarming Inspector General investigation demonstrates Washington hasn’t learned any lessons from the COVID-19 pandemic,” wrote Ernst in her letter to Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin.

The letter explains that while some of the projects have been identified, the full extent is unknown, according to the OIG report titled “Review of DoD Funds Provided to the People’s Republic of China and Associated Affiliates for Research Activities or Any Foreign Countries for the Enhancement of Pathogens of Pandemic Potential.”

“This is due to DoD not sufficiently tracking or monitoring expenditures made from its own contracts and grants. Additionally, Navy officials didn’t even bother responding to the OIG’s specific questions,” Ernst wrote.

The information surrounding the projects, funded by taxpayer dollars, is required by law to be disclosed to the general public, due to the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act, Ernst noted.

“The description of the project omits any mention of China or the collaboration with a company closely affiliated with China’s People’s Liberation

Notorious Wisconsin Election Official Is Ordered To Follow The Law

Published

on

Swing state Wisconsin’s most notorious elections clerk repeatedly failed to follow election integrity laws. Now, on the eve of Election Day, the state’s elections regulator is ordering Green Bay Clerk Celestine Jeffreys to comply. 

The Wisconsin Elections Commission sent a letter to Jeffreys late last week after finally dealing with a complaint filed by the Public Interest Legal Foundation (PILF) on behalf of Green Bay residents. 

According to the complaint, the clerk did not comply with procedures for auditing voters who registered to vote at their polling places on Election Day for 2020, 2021, 2022, and 2023 elections. 

“In short, and as detailed further in the analysis below, the Commission finds that the Complaint did show probable cause to believe that a violation of law or abuse of discretion occurred with relation to Clerk Jeffreys’s procedural actions,” the WEC order states. 

PILF filed the complaint in April, but the commission is just getting around to issuing its decision and order. 

‘A Lack of Awareness’

So will Jeffreys face any discipline? Not so much. 

The commission, just a few days before the election, ordered Jeffreys to take “affirmative steps” to comply with the law as well as the commission’s updated Election Day Registration postcard guidance issued in February 2023. She must also certify to the commission that she has completed the steps required under law “at the earliest time practicable after the November 5, 2024 election, but no later than Monday, February 3, 2025.”

As The Federalist has reported, Jeffreys earlier

Georgia Supreme Court Rules Democrat-Led County Can’t Accept Thousands Of Late Absentee Ballots

Published

on

The Georgia Supreme Court ruled on Monday that Democrat-run Cobb County cannot accept thousands of absentee ballots that arrive after the Election Day deadline.

Cobb County announced on Thursday that as of Oct. 30, “more than 3,000 absentee ballots requested by last Friday’s deadline had not been mailed.”

Cobb County Board of Elections Chairwoman Tori Silas said that the county was “taking every possible step to get these ballots to the voters who requested them” but that the county was “unprepared for the surge in requests and lacked the necessary equipment to process the ballots quickly.” While absentee ballot requests had “been averaging 440 per day … that number surged to 750 per day” during the final week to request an absentee ballot, the county said.

To remedy the issue, the county announced on Thursday that it would overnight the late ballots for a Friday morning (Nov. 1) delivery with “prepaid express return envelopes to ensure voters can return them by Tuesday’s deadline.”

But on Friday, the ACLU and the Southern Poverty Law Center filed a suit arguing that, despite the county taking steps to get the ballots delivered to voters by Friday, voters would be “disenfranchised.”

Cobb County Judge Robert Flournoy bought the bogus argument, ruling on Friday that the 3,000 or so voters who received a late mail-in ballot could return those ballots before 5 p.m. on Nov. 8 — three full days after Election Day — as long as the ballots were postmarked by 7 p.m. on

The Media Made Sure This Election Was Never Going To Be Free Or Fair

Published

on

It’s truly awe-inspiring to watch the news media berate Republicans, down to the very end, over the “free and fair” election we’re most certainly not about to have. Everyone who’s honest knows this wasn’t fair. The media made sure from the beginning that it never would be.

I’m curious as to how they expect this country to have a normal election ever again. “Normal” has nothing to do with Donald Trump referring to “the enemy within,” his rightful broadside against Liz Cheney as a cowardly warmonger, or any other fake controversy the media created to assist in their campaign to elect Kamala Harris. Those are deceptions propagated for the purpose of ignoring real scandals, incompetencies, and negligence permitted by the Kamala-Biden administration.

I’m talking about an election like those in the good old days where one side didn’t use government and corporate power to censor, imprison, and nearly murder its opponents. We know which side did all of that this time around, and yet CNN, The New York Times, and all the rest have glided along, only stopping to ask Republicans if they’ll accept a Kamala victory without question or otherwise brazenly lie about things that are demonstrably true.

Our corrupt media swear the only personal investment they have in this election is ensuring it will be “fair” and consequently end with a peaceful transfer of power, concepts they have worked all along to erode and undermine with not a sliver of regret.

They care about fairness the same way
