In a move that could help Donald Trump’s prospects of winning the White House, Nebraska’s GOP leadership is calling on state lawmakers to switch to a winner-take-all system for awarding Electoral College votes before Election Day.

On Wednesday, Republican Gov. Jim Pillen met with two dozen state senators and Secretary of State Bob Evnen at his official residence to encourage the GOP-controlled legislature to pass a law allocating the Cornhusker State’s five Electoral College votes to whichever presidential candidate receives the most votes statewide. South Carolina GOP Sen. Lindsey Graham also reportedly attended the meeting, according to the left-wing Nebraska Examiner.

Nebraska is one of two states (the other being Maine) that splits its Electoral College votes. As explained by the National Archives, these states “appoint individual electors based on the winner of the popular vote within each Congressional district and then 2 ‘at-large’ electors based on the winner of the overall state-wide popular vote.”

During the 2020 election, Joe Biden garnered a single electoral vote by winning Nebraska’s 2nd District. The reverse happened in Maine, where Trump won the state’s 2nd District and accompanying electoral vote.

As my colleague Brianna Lyman previously explained, the fate of which candidate wins the presidential election could hinge on who comes out on top in Nebraska’s 2nd District. If Kamala Harris “were to win Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin but lose Georgia, Nevada, and Arizona, for example, [she] could still reach 270 — so long as [she] received one of Nebraska’s electoral

Democrats and their corporate media allies are so desperate to get rid of pro-life laws that they’ll fabricate stories to wrongly smear them as not only bad for women but deadly.

The latest is ProPublica’s story of a Georgia woman who died after a North Carolina abortionist gave her chemical abortion pills — which, contrary to Democrat narratives, are unsafe. The article, however, pretends the death was caused by Georgia’s pro-life laws. The author of the story repeatedly attempts to conflate a procedure used to treat miscarriages, dilation and curettage (D&C), with elective abortion.

In ProPublica’s telling, 28-year-old Amber Nicole Thurman had ingested the chemical abortion pill regimen, which consists of the drugs mifepristone and misoprostol. Mifepristone ends the life of the developing human being; misoprostol helps achieve complete expulsion of the embryo.

It’s worth noting that the FDA’s 2000 approval of mifepristone acknowledged its risks and enacted safety requirements, including a seven-week gestational limit, requiring women to see a physician in person, and a mandatory one-time post-abortion appointment to confirm that the uterus was empty and that bleeding had subsided. The FDA also required manufacturers of the abortion pill to report all adverse health events that were reported to them, such as infection or excessive bleeding — not just patient deaths. 

But thanks to Democrat efforts to relax safety requirements for abortion pills, important safeguards no longer apply. When Thurman experienced “complications” from the abortion, which ProPublica wrongly asserts are “rare,” she went to the hospital for a

Idaho Secretary of State Phil McGrane, a Republican, is partnering with the federal censorship office Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) to talk about “election security.”

McGrane held a press conference on Wednesday with CISA director Jen Easterly in the Idaho state capital, after which the Idaho Republican said he was “grateful for the partnership” in a post on X.

CISA is America’s newest federal agency, established in 2018 in part to protect the American electrical grid and “critical infrastructure” from “cybersecurity threats.” In 2017, this included election infrastructure, which then-outgoing DHS Secretary Jeh Johnson designated as a “critical infrastructure subsector,” as noted in a 2023 federal report. The agency has also been working with Big Tech to silence Americans’ speech and put its thumb on the scale of elections.

The agency is behind the massive push to censor what state-power oligarchs deem to be “disinformation.” West Virginia Secretary of State Mac Warner told my colleague M.D. Kittle earlier this year that the “disinformation” narrative is a “psychological operation against the American people” that is “as bad as it gets.”

Nonetheless, McGrane seemed to heap praise on CISA.

“As Idaho’s Secretary of State, I am dedicated to protecting our elections and ensuring that every vote counts,” he reportedly said in a Sept. 16 press release. “The support we receive from CISA is invaluable, especially for our rural communities that often lack funding and resources when it comes to cybersecurity. Federal support and expertise help us provide consistent and robust security
