Election Officials Confirm Voting Machine Flipped Vote from Trump to Kamala.

A video showing a Kentucky electronic ballot machine malfunctioning and only allowing a voter to cast a vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz is authentic, the county clerk confirms. Many on social media and the corporate media initially questioned whether the footage was staged. However, Laurel County Clerk Tony Brown—in a post on Facebook—acknowledges the machine was flipping votes from Donald J. Trump to Harris.

“The Attorney General’s office has been to the vote center to check the device that has been shown across social media today. In full disclosure, after several minutes of attempting to recreate the scenario, it did occur,” Brown wrote. He added: “This was accomplished by hitting some area in between the boxes. After that we tried for several minutes to do it again and could not.”

Brown stressed that the machine shown in the video is meant to mark ballots and that users must make their selection by pressing their finger fully in the box next to the candidate’s name on the screen. If that isn’t done, the error observed in the video can occur. The Laurel County Clerk notes that the machine was pulled from use and set facedown at the voting center until it could be examined by officials from the Kentucky Attorney General’s office.


“There were no claims of any issues with the device prior, and none since it went back into service,” Brown said, continuing: “The voter who posted the video did cast her ballot which she said was correct.”

Brown added: “I hate that this has occurred here in Laurel County. We strive to have accurate, secure and safe elections that we are proud to provide to our citizens.”

Globalist British Mag Backs Harris.

The Economist has endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential election. The magazine follows another British outlet, The Guardian, in throwing its weight behind the Democratic candidate, as U.S. outlets, including The Washington Post, the Los Angeles Times, and USA Today, opt out of making endorsements despite backing Joe Biden in 2020.

However, the endorsement is far from glowing. It notes, “It is hard to imagine Ms. Harris being a stellar president, though people can surprise you.” It says only that, unlike Trump, they cannot imagine her bringing about a “catastrophe.”

John Prideaux, the U.S. editor at The Economist, has defended the magazine’s partisan stance, arguing, “We don’t think being independent and being opinionated are in conflict with each other. Reporters have strong views on the subjects they cover because they’re experts. It’s odd to pretend they don’t.”

There may be ulterior motives for the British news outlet’s involvement in the U.S. election. The Washington Post and LA Times have seen walkouts over their owners’ instructions not to endorse, and the former has also suffered an exodus of digital subscribers.

However, when the far-left Guardian stepped in to endorse Harris, it claimed in a fundraising email that it was—in contrast to The Post and the LA Times—taking a “fearless” stand by doing so, raking around $2 million in the space of a week.

Election Observers EJECTED If They Refuse to Wear COVID Mask.

A county in Washington State has refused to allow election observers to monitor the election process unless they wear COVID-19 masks despite the state repealing mask mandates over two years ago. Officials in Island County, Washington, are reportedly demanding observers wear masks. Auditor Sheilah Crider refused to let observers in after claiming that half of the staff were COVID-19 positive in August.

Despite her claims, Crider has allegedly been unable to prove to local reporters that the election office was the source of the COVID-19 infections.

Earlier this week, Island County Republicans sent a cease-and-desist letter to the Auditor calling for Crider to end the mask mandate, which they have claimed is illegal. Mask mandates were largely ended in Washington state in March 2022 except in select locations, such as long-term care homes and healthcare. But those mandates were also rescinded the following year, in 2023.

ELECTION INTEGRITY. 

Election integrity remains one of the most important issues ahead of next week’s presidential election, making observers especially important. Hundreds of election officials sounded the alarm over election integrity in several key swing states, including concerns about ballot counting and chain of custody of votes.

Despite the concerns, anti-Trump officials like Georgia  Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger have raised millions of dollars to thwart attempts to bolster election integrity efforts.

Democrats have also sued to halt election integrity efforts in Georgia. In August, both the Democratic National Committee (DNC) and the Georgia Democratic Party announced a lawsuit to halt a ruling requiring the total number of votes cast to match those counted before election results are certified.

REVEALED: Daily Beast Journo Who Smeared Bannon is Nepo Baby Who Edits His Own Wikipedia Page.

The Daily Beast’s Harry Lambert, who wrote a crude hit piece on War Room host Stephen K. Bannon following his release from prison, previously occupied himself with writing his own now-deleted Wikipedia page, The National Pulse can reveal.

In 2021, observant social media users noticed that an account called Blueriverrock29 created and edited Lambert’s Wikipedia page. The account seemed solely to contribute to pages related to Lambert’s family and insert references to Lambert elsewhere.

Among Blueriverrock29’s edits was a glowing endorsement from another journalist calling Lambert “a new star in political journalism,” citing a two-year-old tweet—which Wikipedia would not typically accept as a reliable source.

Another account, BlueRiver472, added a highly posed photo of Lambert to his page, describing it as “their own work” for copyright purposes.

When another Wikipedia user added details on Lambert’s parents—the highly connected Stephen Lambert and Jenni Russel, both BBC veterans—near the top of his profile, a new user, Eagleheights162, soon appeared to delete them, perhaps sensing people would conclude Lambert owes his career to nepotism.

Political blog Guido Fawkes noted that Lambert had once been the director of a film company with an address in Eagle Heights, explaining the user name.

At some point following these embarrassing revelations, Lambert’s Wikipedia page vanished without a trace. Pages for his father and mother still exist, but any mention of him has been removed from them.

Secret Service Stonewalls Probe into Trump Assassination Attempt.

Top officials in the United States Secret Service (USSS) are stonewalling Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Inspector General Joseph Cuffari‘s probe into security lapses that resulted in the July 13 assassination attempt on President Donald J. Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania. In the aftermath of the attempt on Trump’s life, managers within the USSS told employees to notify them if they received requests for documents, information, or interviews from the Inspector General—suggesting the agency wished to coach potential witnesses before speaking with the government watchdog.

Internal USSS emails, first obtained by RealClearPolitics, direct employees to immediately inform their supervisor if they are contacted by the Office of the Inspector General (OIG). Specifically, USSS management indicated they intended to present “an organized response” to Cuffari’s probe. The email alert came just days after the OIG had released a report critical of the USSS’s handling of the January 6 Capitol riots.

Senior leaders in the USSS acknowledged that, typically, employees would not need to clear with their supervisors any interviews with the OIG. However, the agency emphasized that regarding the July 13 assassination attempt on Trump, they wished to avoid conflicting statements and reports.

“Generally, not an issue; however, this is NOT the normal course of action, and the Service needs awareness and to ensure an organized response with information in the correct context,” USSS officials wrote in one email.

In response to the revelations, Senator Chuck Grassley (R-IA) warned in a letter to the USSS that the directive to employees could have had a “chilling effect” and hampered the interdepend investigation into its security failures. Grassley noted the emails appear intended to suggest that USSS management was and is keeping tabs on employee communications with both the OIG investigations and parallel Congressional inquiries.

Far-Left Guardian Reels In $2M After Kamala Endorsement.

The left-wing Guardian newspaper, based in the United Kingdom, has turned usual U.S. political fundraising practices upside down. While candidates usually receive campaign contribution windfalls from newspaper endorsements or other high-profile inflection points, the Guardian is instead reaping financial rewards for backing Vice President Kamala Harris for the U.S. presidency. By doubling down on their endorsement of Kamala Harris, the newspaper was able to quickly raise an eye-popping $2 million from its readers.

A five-paragraph note sent to readers by U.S. editor Betsy Reed highlighted The Washington Post and Los Angeles Times‘s decisions not to endorse a presidential candidate in 2024. “Something these two papers have in common? They both have billionaire owners who could face retaliation in a Trump presidency,” Reed argues. She adds: “The Guardian is not billionaire-owned, nor do we have shareholders. We are supported by readers and owned by the Scott Trust, which guarantees our editorial independence in perpetuity.”

The newspaper’s U.S. editor goes on to emphasize that the Guardian—unlike The Post or the LA Times—did, in fact, endorse Harris for president. She stressed: “Fearless journalism and an informed public are bedrocks of our democracy, and it is an abdication of our duty as journalists to sit out this election out of self-interest.”

While it is common for U.S. political candidates to raise money off high-profile media and celebrity endorsements, it is almost unheard of for a media outlet to raise money off their decision to endorse a candidate. However, the Guardian‘s success—generating $500,000 in three days and $2 million in a week—could change the landscape going forward.

Far-Left Propagandists Peddle New Liz Cheney Firing Squad Hoax.

Kamala Harris supporters on social media have peddled a fresh hoax against President Donald Trump overnight, alleging that his comments lambasting failed Congresswoman Liz Cheney were tantamount to a call for her execution in front of an old-fashioned firing squad.

Trump, speaking alongside Tucker Carlson during an event in Arizona, alleged: “She’s a radical war hawk. Let’s put her with a rifle standing there with nine barrels shooting at her. Okay. Let’s see how she feels about it.”

Aaron Rupar – whose work inventing comments and context to aid left-wing politicians has earned him a mention in UrbanDictionary – posted the clip to his X account late Thursday:

Trump’s comments were self-evidently in reference to Cheney and her father, Dick Cheney, an architect of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, and their obsession with sending Americans to die in wars overseas.

Nevertheless, key advocates of Vice President Kamala Harris seized on the remarks in an attempt to portray them as a call to violence against Liz Cheney.

 

Liz Cheney responded on social media: “This is how dictators destroy free nations. They threaten those who speak against them with death.”

President Trump has recently been the focus of several assassination attempts, one of which came within a hair’s breadth of killing him.

Rep. Gaetz Wants to Strip Tax-Free Status from Far-Left ‘NGOs.’

Representative Matt Gaetz (R-FL) is introducing legislation stripping Internal Revenue Service (IRS) tax-exempt status from nonprofit and non-government organizations assisting migrants who cross the U.S. border illegally. The “Helping Americans by Restricting Resources to Immigrant Services Act” (HARRIS Act) specifically categorizes any organization “substantially” providing or paying for goods and services for illegal immigrants as having aided and abetted the criminal act of illegally crossing into the U.S.

“NGOs and nonprofits that enable the Biden-Harris administration’s mass-migration policies—by focusing primarily on providing assistance to those who have broken federal immigration law—should not be receiving tax breaks,” Rep. Gaetz said in an interview. “My legislation, the HARRIS Act, will strip tax-exempt status from organizations aiding and abetting the U.S. border invasion,” he added.

Gaetz’s legislation already has several cosponsors, including Reps. Randy Weber (R-TX), Lauren Boebert (R-CO), and Andy Biggs (R-AZ).

The issue of nonprofit and non-governmental organizations aiding illegal immigration along the U.S. southern border and in major American cities has flown under the radar in the corporate media and among most government watchdogs. However, The National Pulse reported in September this year that the Biden-Harris government has poured nearly $400 million taxpayer dollars into so-called migrant aid groups, which—in reality—serve to only further incentivize and promote illegal immigration into the country. The funding for these groups is often funneled through channels like the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Shelter and Services Program (SSP).

“If nonprofits want special treatment under our tax-code, they should focus on doing genuine charity for genuine Americans, not illegal aliens,” Gaetz said regarding his bill.

Joe Rogan Warned Tony Hinchcliffe His Puerto Rico Joke Would Get Him Stabbed.

Joe Rogan has revealed he previously warned Tony Hinchcliffe, host of the popular Kill Tony comedy show, against a joke about Puerto Rico, which he delivered during an appearance at former President Donald J. Trump’s massive rally in Madison Square Garden, New York City. “That joke kills at comedy clubs. I don’t like the joke, but it kills, and I said to him, it’s just like, if you’re Puerto Rican and you hear that in the audience, you’re like, [groans], but it’s a funny joke, the joke does well,” he said on his podcast, The Joe Rogan Experience. “But I said to him, I go, dude, that’s the one that’s going to get you stabbed.”

Hinchcliffe, an insult comic who states in his defense that he makes fun of everyone, said on stage that there is “literally a floating island of garbage in the middle of the ocean right now,” referencing the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, before joking, “I think it’s called Puerto Rico.” The U.S. territory is known to have longstanding landfill issues.

“I tell all comedians, don’t ever do comedy at something that’s not a comedy event. Don’t do it… It’s a terrible setup,” said Rogan, who regularly hosts Kill Tony at his Comedy Mothership in Austin, Texas.

However, he praised Hinchcliffe as “the best roaster ever” and predicted the controversy would “blow over just like all these things do.”

Polls indicate that, despite the media frenzy around the joke, it has failed to move voters. Subsequently, Shadow Senator for Puerto Rico Zoraida Buxó has endorsed Trump, and Joe Biden has turned the narrative back against the Democrats by saying it is the millions of Americans who support Trump who are “garbage.”

WaPo Takes Out Anti-Trump Ads Amid Subscriber Exodus.

The Washington Post has intensified its negative coverage of former President Donald J. Trump after digital subscribers canceled memberships en masse to protest its decision not to endorse Vice President Kamala Harris. On Monday, The Post significantly increased its expenditures on digital advertising, boosting numerous articles attacking Trump on platforms such as Facebook.

The move comes after WaPo owner Jeff Bezos spiked a planned endorsement of Harris by the newspaper’s editorial board. The Amazon founder penned an editorial explaining the decision, noting that the public no longer trusts the corporate media and that steps must taken to to correct this if the newspaper is to avoid fading into “irrelevance.”

However, the partisan digital subscriber base The Post has courted were not pleased with the decision, with around a tenth of them canceling their subscriptions in protests. Numerous editorial board members and contributors also resigned, including Robert Kagan, husband of warmongering former Biden-Harris official Victoria Nuland.

Boosting anti-Trump articles online is likely an attempt to convince leftist news consumers that The Post will still be pushing an anti-Trump narrative, even if it refrains from openly endorsing his political rivals.

When explaining his decision, Bezos noted that newspaper endorsements “do nothing to tip the scales of an election,” hinting that aping a more neutral stance may leave The Post better placed to influence public opinion.
