1. Trump’s new White House press secretary Katie Zacharia is a prolific user of Truth Social where she regularly promoted Pizzagate and QAnon conspiracies, accusing elites in the Democratic Party and Hollywood of running child sex rings and eating people.

Take a moment and listen. Senator Andy Kim visited Delaney Hall, an ICE detention center. He’s calling for it to be shut down.
Screenshot of a post from @S... (Senator Andy Kim) on X, posted 2 days ago, demanding Delaney Hall be shut down immediately after visiting the detention facility with Rep. Menendez and witnessing what he describes as inhumane and unacceptable conditions. Below is a video still of Kim speaking outdoors in a gray suit and blue tie, gesturing with one hand, with yellow barriers and a concrete wall visible behind him. The subtitle reads "give them time in court."

I keep thinking about this: Since Trump refuses any transparency on WHOM he would reward for their Jan6 crimes, he is presumptively planning on paying off seditionists like Enrique Tarrio and Stewart Rhodes. Maybe @raskin.house.gov should file an update to his motion in this case.

DOJ identified 4 green card holders who voted in 2024 in NJ, or 0.00006% of total votes. As I wrote in 2024, noncitizen voting remains extraordinarily rare. Audits find only a tiny handful of cases, most often green card holders who got bad advice from others.
What do those 68 cases tell us? First, it demonstrates that proven cases of noncitizen voting are incredibly rare. Even an organization engaged in a major effort to document voter fraud produced fewer than 70 proven cases of noncitizens who voted in elections in the last 40 years.
Given that over one billion votes have been
cast over that period in thousands of elections, the incidence of proven noncitizen voting is below 0.0001%.Third, the data tells us that most cases of noncitizen voting involve lawful permanent residents-people with green cards who have been in the community for years, many who end up voting due to bad information given by government officials themselves.
The most common scenario in the cases
included in Heritage's database includes a lawful permanent resident who was encouraged by a government official to vote or falsely told that they were eligible.

fact of the matter is that more people than you think simply see black students as inherently “unqualified” and thus blame affirmative action for taking the spot of a “deserving” student, even when affirmative action no longer exists.

Your regular reminder that mass voter fraud does not exist, in the same way that the Earth is not flat & the sun does not rise in the West. We know this, scientifically. Allowing these beliefs to become mainstream & shape national political discourse over decades is a total media & societal failure.
