On Thursday, Obama-appointed Judge Amy Berman Jackson ruled against a group of seven Republican plaintiffs — all U.S. citizens and all registered to vote in D.C. — who argued the city’s “Local Resident Voting Rights Amendment Act of 2022” violated their Fifth Amendment rights by letting illegals water down their votes.

As a reminder, in 2019 Judge Jackson sentenced Roger Stone to 40 months for ‘lying to Congress,’ and ordered Paul Manafort to be held in jail prior to his conviction, but dismissed Benghazi charges against Hillary Clinton. In a prediction of greater things to come, Judge Jackson shut down President Trump’s 2017 travel ban against several terrorist countries, since they were ‘predominantly muslim.’

America last.

The District of Columbia’s 2022 law, which Judge Jackson just loves, removed any citizenship requirement to vote in city elections. “Noncitizen residents” can now vote for local officials, including mayor, local initiatives, referenda, recalls, and charter amendment measures. You aren’t going to believe this, but the law also allows “noncitizen residents” to run for D.C. government roles and serve on the city’s Board of Elections.

What could possibly go wrong?

Actually, I gave it some thought. It might not be a bad thing! I’m not sure that illegal aliens could possibly vote worse than the citizens who live in 90%-democrat D.C. In the same 2022 legislative session as passing the illegal voter law, dumb-as-rocks DC also changed its criminal code, eliminating most mandatory minimum sentences and lowering maximum penalties for violent crimes.

And while they’re at it, having perfected mail-away ballots and having dispensed with the citizenship requirement, why not go all the way and chuck the residency requirement, too? Let the “noncitizens” vote for the next DC mayor right where they are, by mail-in ballot, from the convenience of their home countries.

You can’t get more inclusive than that.

I’m not dumb enough to promise progressives won’t try, but this kind of thing is unlikely to spread very far beyond DC, since a similar law would be much harder to pass outside DC. Citizenship to vote and to hold office is required by most state constitutions, or by state election statutes, which can’t be so whimsically be changed by a single out-of-control city council.

Congress, with presidential approval, can review DC laws. If the Republicans ever regain control of the out-of-control federal government, they can vacate both the illegal voter law and the criminal ‘reform’ package. ...

“This case is only just the beginning. It was always going to be decided at a higher level than a U.S. district court,” Mr. Hajec explained, quite reasonably adding “the very notion of our nation’s independence is threatened by this law and others like it.”

Wisconsin Question 1, the Prohibition on Non-Governmental Funding of Elections Amendment, is on the ballot in Wisconsin as a legislatively referred constitutional amendment on April 2, 2024.[1][2]

A "yes" vote supports this amendment to prohibit any level of government in the state from applying or accepting non-governmental funds or equipment for election administration.

Wisconsin Question 2, the Only Designated Election Officials to Conduct Elections Amendment, is on the ballot in Wisconsin as a legislatively referred constitutional amendment on April 2, 2024.[1][2]

A "yes" vote supports this amendment to provide that only election officials designated by law may administer elections.

Mississippi Secretary of State Michael Watson wrote to U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland on March 6 alleging that agencies under the attorney general’s charge are “attempting to register people to vote, including potentially ineligible felons, and to co-opt state and local officials into accomplishing this goal.”

The allegation relates to President Joe Biden’s Executive Order 14019, which states, “The head of each agency shall evaluate ways in which the agency can, as appropriate and consistent with applicable law, promote voter registration and voter participation.”

Among other things, this order has forced U.S. Marshals to modify more than 900 contracts with prisons and jails to provide voter registration documents and facilitate mail-in voting for inmates, Mr. Watson wrote.

The page is now scrubbed from the CDC website as of January this year but it has long posted voting protocols as a means of controlling infectious disease spread.

What’s fascinating is the timing. The page was updated to mention the necessity of mail-in voting on March 12, 2020. That’s the same day at Donald Trump’s famous hostage-style video that announced universal travel restrictions for Americans traveling to and from the UK and the EU, for the first time in US history.

He was so nervous that he actually garbled a sentence. He said that he would stop all goods transport. He meant to say that he would not! The correction came a day later but only after the stock market crashed.

That very day, someone went to the page on the CDC site and added that good hygiene involves pushing mail-in voting. We only know this thanks to Archive.org and checking the day-by-day timeline.

U.S. — Despite ominous polling data showing former President Donald Trump holding leads in key battleground states, there are strong indications that President Joe Biden is still polling well among the important 3 A.M. mail-in ballot demographic.

Democratic strategists expressed confidence that this crucial voting block, which played an important role in his 2020 victory, is still firmly in President Biden's corner, leading many insiders to believe that November's presidential election will turn out differently than current battleground polls indicate.

"We'll be just fine," said Biden campaign chief Julie Chavez Rodriguez. "Mr. Trump's camp may be crowing about all the polls showing him having a lead, but we all know which votes are really the important ones. As long as Donald Trump struggles to win the 3 A.M. unverified mail-in votes, President Biden will still end up being the choice of the American people. Joe just knows how to win those middle-of-the-night votes."

While Trump has built impressive leads in many important states heading into the general election, Biden's track record of winning an overwhelming percentage of votes among ballots that surreptitiously arrive after polling locations have closed and don't have verifiable signatures looms large. "Trump can build as big of a lead as he wants," Chavez Rodriguez said. "It won't matter. We know that the 3 A.M. mail-in ballot demographic will come in strong for us in the end. It may even come in stronger for us this year than it did in 2020. In fact, I know it will."

At publishing time, when asked how many 3 A.M. mail-in votes they expected to need, Biden's campaign said it wouldn't know until election night.

Trump has published a video message in which he warns that the Democrats are planning to unleash a new Covid variant in order to bring pandemic restrictions back across America.

In the video, Trump states that Democrats “rigged the 2020 election and now they’re trying to steal the 2024 election.”

According to Trump, the Democrats are planning to bring back pandemic-era restrictions in order to help President Joe Biden “win” the critical election.

Such a move would see the return of lockdowns, school closures, masking, vaccine mandates, and, of course, mail-in ballots.

However, Trump vows that, if elected in November, he will “use every available authority” to go after anyone who imposes a “mask mandate or a vaccine mandate” on American citizens.

“The left-wing lunatics are trying very hard to bring back Covid lockdowns and mandates with their sudden fear-mongering about the new variants that are coming,” Trump asserts.

“Gee Whiz, you know what else is coming? An election.

“They want to restart the Covid hysteria so they can justify more lockdowns, more censorship, more illegal drop boxes, more mail-in ballots, and trillions of dollars in payoffs to their political allies heading into the 2024 election.
