NY Man Attacked for Pro-Trump Hat.

A man in Bath, New York, was taken into custody on Friday after an alleged altercation with a man wearing a ‘Trump 2024’ hat at a local supermarket. The Bath Police Department has charged Robert Yott, 60, with felony second-degree assault and misdemeanor fourth-degree criminal mischief.

Authorities responded to a disturbance report at Tops Friendly Markets on West Morris Street at approximately 10 AM. Upon arrival, they found that Yott allegedly attacked a stranger for wearing a ‘Trump 2024’ cap.

Investigators revealed that Yott confronted the individual. In the ensuing altercation, he allegedly struck the victim multiple times, causing visible injuries, including broken teeth. The two men reportedly had no prior acquaintance. Yott is now in custody at the Steuben County Jail, awaiting arraignment.

Democrats and their media allies have consistently demonized former President Donald J. Trump and his supporters in recent months, with the Democratic nominee calling the former a “fascist” and President Joe Biden calling the latter “garbage.”

Trump has been subjected to two assassination attempts over the course of the campaign, with the first in Butler, Pennsylvania, resulting in him and three supporters being shot, one fatally. The America First leader blames the Democrats’ “highly inflammatory” rhetoric for inspiring “dangerous fools” to try to end his life.

Leftist Commentator Threatens to Kill Herself On Air if Trump Wins.

Progressive “comedian” and podcaster Francesca Fiorentini is illustrating just how extreme the leftist meltdown may be if President Donald J. Trump wins the 2024 election. During a recent appearance on The Sun‘s ‘Never Mind the Ballots’ with host Harry Cole, Fiorentini darkly joked she’d “drink cyanide on air and just podcast into the night” if Trump bests Vice President Kamala Harris.

When Cole pressed what the progressive left will actually do in reaction to a Trump victory, Fiorentini stressed they’d keep fighting—though she demurred when pressed if she would accept Trump as the legitimate president. The leftist comedian argued that resisting Trump and his judicial nominees is the paramount cause for progressives, suggesting Republican abortion laws are killing women.

“Women are dying right now from preventable infections related to miscarriages. Mothers, two women we know this week, died in Texas because they were suffering miscarriages. They had an infection, and they needed treatment immediately,” she claimed, alleging: “They were turned away from emergency rooms in Texas because there was a fetal heartbeat and so no doctor could attend to them until there was no more fetal heartbeat. Those women lost their life.”

“We’re voting for our human rights. Because women all around this country, their lives are in peril,” Fiorentini continued, claiming that women have been reduced to being second-class citizens.

Democrats have sought to turn abortion access into a wedge issue in the 2024 election, coordinating with activists and nonprofits to place abortion rights on several state ballots across the country. Meanwhile, Kamala Harris’s presidential campaign sought to turn a Georgia woman’s death into an attack line against Trump—even though the woman died from the abortion procedure itself.

What Were Those Ballot Box Fires About?

Authorities in Portland, Oregon, and Vancouver, Washington, are investigating incidents involving incendiary devices found in ballot boxes, marked with messages supporting Gaza and Hamas. The first occurrence was reported on October 8 in Vancouver, where a device with “Free Palestine” and “Free Gaza” notes was placed in a drop box. In the early hours of this past Monday, additional devices ignited in two more locations—Portland and another in Vancouver—similarly marked “Free Gaza.”

A law enforcement source, who wished to remain anonymous, confirmed the messages to the Associated Press. However, both the Portland and Vancouver Police Departments have refrained from commenting, redirecting inquiries to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). The federal agency’s Portland office states it is actively investigating these incidents, which are believed to be related. According to police, the incendiary devices were attached externally to the ballot boxes.

The suspect is described as a white male between 30 and 40 years of age, balding with short hair, and reportedly an experienced metalworker. Surveillance footage previously identified the suspect driving a black or dark-colored Volvo S-60, model years 2001 to 2004. The vehicle lacked a front license plate and had an unreadable rear plate.

The October 8 incident resulted in no ballot damage. However, the Portland arson damaged three ballots, while the Vancouver attack affected hundreds. Greg Kimsey, Clark County’s elected auditor, reported that officials retrieved approximately 475 damaged ballots from the Vancouver box, although the exact number of ballots destroyed remains uncertain. Kimsey condemned the acts, labeling them a “direct attack on democracy.”

Clark County sits in Washington’s 3rd Congressional District, which is currently in a heated race between incumbent Representative Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (D-WA) and her Republican challenger, Joe Kent. Gluesenkamp Perez narrowly defeated Kent for the seat during the 2022 midterm election.

Harris Camp Implies They’ll Keep Counting Votes Until They Win.

Vice President Kamala Harris‘s presidential campaign is implying they will attempt to force key counties in battleground states to keep counting votes until they attain victory. In a recent press call, a senior Harris campaign official emphasized Democrats would work to ensure they hit their ballot marks in certain localities even if President Donald J. Trump declares victory on election night.

The official, who requested anonymity, said such a move by Trump “won’t work.” They added: “He did this before. It failed.”

The Harris campaign says it is focused on maximizing their base’s turnout and confidence in the closing days of the 2024 election. “We are focused on making sure that all of our voters have the information to get out and vote,” the campaign official said, highlighting efforts to protect the integrity of the voting process amidst what they claim are attempts by Trump to “sow doubt” regarding the election results.

Trump’s campaign, meanwhile, won an important victory in Pennsylvania after Democratic volunteers and local police tried to prematurely shut down lines of voters looking to request an absentee ballot. While not technically “early voting,” Pennsylvania voters are allowed to request an absentee ballot in person, fill it out, and immediately return it. A local court in Bucks County ruled that the absentee process would be kept open for several extra days before November 5.

In Michigan, a Dominion ICX Voter Assist Terminal (VAT) system—which is used to help voters with disabilities mark their ballots—suffered a programming error,  preventing voters from casting split-ticket ballots. This issue is reportedly impacting the same Dominion machine model across the country—though reports indicate election officials have instituted a fix.

Legal Voters Are Being Turned Away Because of Voter Roll Error.

Some Arizona voters say they’re being turned away at their polling location, with election workers informing them that their voter registration has been suspended and that they cannot cast their ballot. The registration issue, brought to light by America First Legal, stems from a data transfer error that flagged 218,000 people on the state’s voter roll as not having proof of citizenship.

While a portion of the voters impacted by the error are potentially noncitizens who cannot legally vote in federal elections, the Arizona Secretary of State’s office acknowledges that many are legal voters. On Friday, a state judge ruled that Secretary of State Adrian Fontes (D) must produce a complete list of the impacted voters to county election officials by Monday.

“County Recorders need the list of 218,000 affected voters to address the issue, but AZ Secretary of State Adrian Fontes stubbornly refuses to share it with them,” America First Legal posted on X (formerly Twitter) after the issue of voters being turned away surfaced on Saturday. The legal group continued: “County recorders need this list. All eligible voters need to be able to vote, and no noncitizens should be able to vote.”

“It’s a win-win solution,” they added.

Earlier this month, The National Pulse reported that the Arizona Secretary of State’s office acknowledged it had discovered over 218,000 individuals on its voter rolls who lacked proof of citizenship at the time of registration. The discrepancy was attributed to data coding issues involving driver’s license information between the Arizona Department of Transportation’s Motor Vehicle Division and the state voter registration databases.

The massive voter registration error was first identified last month when approximately 97,000 voters were found to be listed as full-ballot voters without providing the required citizenship documentation for state elections.

Georgia GOP Says Fulton County is Violating State Ballot Drop Box Law.

The Georgia Republican Party is alleging Fulton County election officials are keeping certain voter centers open in predominantly Democratic-heavy areas over the weekend to accept absentee ballots in what they say violates Georgia law. In a statement issued late Friday night, the Georgia GOP announced they have filed a lawsuit against Fulton County for violating state election law, which restricts the use of ballot drop boxes after the early voting period ends.

“It has come to our attention that Fulton County election officials are planning to open four election offices this weekend “to accommodate voters seeking to hand-return their absentee ballots,” the Georgia GOP says, continuing: “This is a blatant violation of Georgia law, subsection (d) of Code Section 21-5-385. O.C.G.A § 21-2-382 which states ‘all drop boxes shall be closed when the advance voting period ends.’ This must be stopped immediately and those willfully breaking Georgia law should be held accountable.”

“Fulton County’s patently illegal acts give us no choice but to immediately file suit,” the state Republican Party adds.

Georgia state election mandates an early voting period beginning on “the fourth Monday immediately prior to each primary or election” and ending ” on the Friday immediately prior to each primary, election, or runoff.” However, voters are allowed to mail or hand in absentee ballots at any point “before the day of the primary or election.”

The Georgia GOP’s complaint appears to be contingent on the concern that Fulton County voter centers are acting as ballot drop boxes in all but name and that local election officials are using conflicting statutes to unlawfully extend the early voting period beyond its legally mandated conclusion.

AZ Must Hand Over List of Voters Who Lack Proof of Citizenship, Rules Judge.

A state judge has ruled that Arizona Secretary of State Adrian Fontes (D) must produce a complete list of over 218,000 registered voters who failed to provide proof of citizenship. According to the order issued by a judge at the Superior Court of Arizona for Maricopa County, Fontes must produce the list by Monday, November 4.

Fontes is now required to release the voter registration data to America First Legal, the plaintiff in the case.

 

Earlier this month, The National Pulse reported that the Arizona Secretary of State’s office acknowledged it had discovered over 218,000 individuals on its voter rolls who lacked proof of citizenship at the time of registration. The discrepancy was attributed to data coding issues involving driver’s license information between the Arizona Department of Transportation’s Motor Vehicle Division and the state voter registration databases.

The massive voter registration error was first identified last month when approximately 97,000 voters were found to be listed as full-ballot voters without providing the required citizenship documentation for state elections. Arizona requires those registering to vote in state-level elections to provide documentary proof of citizenship (DPOC). Consequently, if a voter cannot provide the required information, they’re designated as only being allowed to cast a federal election ballot.

According to the state investigation into the database issue, approximately 79,000 registered Republicans and 61,000 Democrats are impacted. An additional 76,000 voters who are registered under other political parties are also affected.

The potentially erroneous registrations have raised serious concerns about both noncitizen voters casting ballots and legal voters impacted by the error being denied their right to vote. America First Legal’s court win will help ensure public transparency regarding the state’s voter roll database error in the critical battleground state of Arizona.

Illegal Alien Arrested for Raping Five-Year-Old.

Police have arrested Wilson Castillo Diaz, a 26-year-old illegal alien, for the alleged rape of a young girl on October 16. The child was taken to a hospital for a medical evaluation following the assault. Details on Diaz’s connection to the girl and specifics of the location have not been released.

Diaz entered the U.S. illegally under the Obama-Biden administration in April 2014, crossing near Rio Grande, Texas, before being briefly detained by U.S. border agents. He was then released with a notice to appear in immigration court, which he ignored. Authorities report that Diaz evaded immigration enforcement for years, residing in Westbury, New York, until his arrest.

Nassau County police confirmed that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) was informed of his recent arrest, though they did not disclose his country of origin. Diaz now faces multiple charges, including rape, attempted rape, and endangering the welfare of a child, and is being held on a $200,000 cash bond.

Illegal immigration has worsened dramatically under Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, accompanied by an epidemic of what former President Donald J. Trump describes as “migrant crime.”

Some 13,000 convicted killers and over 5,000 sexual assault convicts have been released into the U.S. under the current government, among over 662,000 criminal migrants overall.

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.
