DOJ Charges Illegal Voters in Battleground States

Federal authorities are not only investigating election fraud in multiple battleground states, they are also beginning to arrest fraudsters.

This work is particularly vital ahead of a major midterm election. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Department of Justice (DOJ) are both involved in the voter fraud crackdown as so many illicit voters are illegal aliens. It is ironic how, despite the fact that Democrats have been cheating egregiously in elections for well over a century, so many politicians and media outlets were terrified of discussing voter fraud until just recently. Now we see how rampant the fraud is. Another “conspiracy theory” turned out to be true.

The DHS also shared a link to the Fox News piece from which the headline screenshot came. The DOJ probe has led to authorities bringing criminal charges against multiple individuals for illegal voting and falsifying citizenship status, among other charges all tied to election fraud. The defendants include people in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Wisconsin, all of which are battleground states or have had suspicious Democrat wins in recent years.

IMO, the question in 2020 was never, realistically, of whether there was fraud, but of whether it was great enough in the "right" places to affect election outcomes.

Never takes a day off doing what?

Damn, still dying I see.   

Assad-era Syrian reactor was configured for nuclear weapons, IAEA chief says

https://srnnews.com/assad-era-syrian-reactor-was-configured-for-nuclear-weapons-iaea-chief-says/

VIENNA (AP) — The Assad-era government in Syria was constructing a nuclear reactor that was configured to produce fissile material for possible use in nuclear weapons, the head of the International Atomic Energy Agency said on Monday.

The “configuration” and the “technical features” of the nuclear reactor under construction in Syria during the leadership of ousted former President Bashar Assad were “very efficient in the production of fissile material that could be directly used for the fabrication of nuclear weapons,” IAEA director general Rafael Grossi said.

“Of course, that was never declared, that was always denied, so, and again, intentions cannot be judged, but that was a very serious proliferation concern that we had, and this has been difficult work,” he told reporters on the first day of a regular meeting of the IAEA Board of Governors, in Vienna.

Syria was believed to have operated an extensive undeclared nuclear program under Assad that included a nuclear reactor built by North Korea in eastern Deir el-Zour province.

Now that it's nearly 20 years since Israel demolished the site, it's time for a bit of, "I'm shocked! Shocked!" CYA from the IEAA Project Clouseau inspectors.

2007, Syria; 1981, Iraq; 2025 and 2026, Iran.

IMO, Gateway Pundit has been less than reliable as a source for many years - sometimes correct, often overstating or selective with facts, sometime just incorrect.

In this case, the truth of what happened is less than the partisan media are claiming, and more than HoftLand is saying. The guy went through the crowd aggressively, pushing people aside - more than Hoft admits, less than the MSM claim.

Then there's DU-grade fantasies of "what really happened". They probably have people claiming she was struck or other such nonsense.

Agreed, and I only glance at that site on occasion because it is the conservative version of the Huffington Post.

However, here's a site I trust:

Amy Acton’s ‘Assassination Attempt’ Narrative Is Falling Apart

You may have heard about the alleged assassination attempt against Ohio Democrat gubernatorial candidate Amy Acton over the weekend.

"While attending the Canfield Fair, an armed individual lunged at Dr. Acton, injuring multiple people. Dr. Acton and Eric are grateful for the swift and decisive action of law enforcement and are praying for the recovery of those injured. This kind of violence has no place in Ohio. Dr. Acton will always stand up to the chaos, hate and vitriol that pits us against one another," said Addie Bullock, communications director for the Acton campaign.

There's just one problem. This story is a complete lie.

That statement is carefully worded to make you think Acton was standing in a gunman's crosshairs. She wasn't. Acton was never touched, never injured, and never threatened.

An armed man pushed through a crowd at the Canfield Fair on Sunday, knocking down two elderly fairgoers before deputies tackled him and placed him under arrest. Within hours, her campaign and a sympathetic press corps turned an arrest for disorderly conduct into an assassination attempt.

The campaign lied.

Yet, the New York Times, of all outlets, couldn't even back up the Acton campaign's version of events.

"An armed man was arrested Sunday after forcing his way through a crowd toward Dr. Amy Acton, the Democratic nominee for Ohio governor, the authorities said," the paper reported. "Dr. Acton was giving a speech at the Mahoning County Democratic Party tent at a fair in Canfield, in the northeastern part of the state, when a man pushed through the crowd, knocking over two elderly audience members, according to the county sheriff, Jerry Greene, and two witnesses. The man did not draw his weapons, according to Sheriff Greene and the witnesses. Dr. Acton was not injured."

Had there been even a hint of evidence that this was an assassination attempt or some form of attack against a political candidate, you can bet law enforcement would have treated it as such. But, law enforcement officials made it quite clear there was no assassination attempt, and the suspect is facing misdemeanor assault charges.
