Americans, write your Congressional Representative - demand they sign this pledge. 🙏🇺🇲⚖️ This one matters! There is no downside for them signing it. Force them to go on record. Don't be deterred by gaslighting.

An administration worried about machine security would fix the machines. This one built a predicate instead: a standing excuse to interfere in elections the states run, against any result it doesn’t like. Last month I laid out how it gets used.

Laundering Federal Election Interference in the Midterms

The administration has turned an unfixable fact—Chinese parts in nearly every U.S. voting machine—into a license to contest any election it loses.

The White House will say the election was stolen. But a vulnerability is not an intrusion, and an intrusion is not an altered vote. Reuters: a probe of one Puerto Rico voting machine pulled in ODNI, DOJ, DHS, and the FBI. It found nothing. Stephen Miller’s answer: seize more machines.

If the president or Pete Hegseth wants to call someone a “tr*nny” — I’m right here. On Monday, with the country at war, Trump called a Senate candidate named Annie “tr*nny.” She’s not trans. I am. But his White House never used the word with me. Why?

Our allies are hedging. The Gulf states bought American protection and got a war they didn’t start, on their own soil. Shawn Howard and I worked together at CIA and both deployed to the region. When Iranian missiles hit, we watched the U.S. evacuate our Gulf bases. Our hosts couldn’t leave.
