Democrat Threatens to Kill Supreme Court Justices.

A Democrat donor has been arrested for making repeated threats against the six conservative Supreme Court justices.

The details: The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) announced it had arrested 76-year-old Panos Anastasiou for sending more than 465 threatening messages to six Supreme Court justices. (It does not name them, but it is implied it the six conservatives.)

The messages: They began on March 10, 2023, and continued through July 16, 2024. The DOJ says they “escalated to messages intending to threaten harm toward the victims” and “contained violent, racist, and homophobic rhetoric coupled with threats of assassination by torture, hanging, and firearms.”

The intent: The DOJ claims Anastasiou sent his threats in response to the court’s decisions he did not agree with and meant to “intimidate Supreme Court Justices 1-6 and retaliate against them.”

Democrat donor: FEC records show Anastasiou donated more than 80 times to Democrat politicians and left-wing causes.

The charges: Anastasiou faces up to 155 years in prison for nine counts of making threats against federal judges as well as 13 counts of threats via interstate commerce.

Zoom out: Kamala Harris has repeatedly attacked the Supreme Court in recent years and even suggested she’d support Constitutional amendments to change it.

Big picture: There is an epidemic of left-wing violence against conservatives — from the two assassination attempts on Donald Trump to the transgender person who murdered children at a Christian school in Nashville last year. All the while, the Democrats insist the greatest threat our country faces is “right-wing extremists.”

GLOBALIST OPEN BORDERS: How Delaware Cops Helped a Stranded Albanian Migrant Reach the UK.

An Albanian crossing by boat illegally from France to the United Kingdom attempted a distress call to the port of Dover but reached and was helped by police in Dover, Delaware, 3,500 miles away instead. On August 27, the Dover Police Department in Delaware received a distress call that led to an unexpected international rescue operation.

The caller reported that his ship was sinking. However, the emergency was happening in the English Channel, more than 3,500 miles away from Delaware’s capital. The Albanian illegal, seeking urgent help for his brother’s sinking vessel, mistakenly contacted the wrong Dover. Despite the significant geographic error, Communications Operator MacKenzie Atkinson noted the vessel’s coordinates and the nature of the emergency.

Within four minutes, her colleague Connor Logan established contact with the French Coast Guard, His Majesty’s Coastguards, and the United Kingdom’s Maritime and Coastguard Agency’s Coordination Center. Eventually, the call successfully reached the appropriate emergency services in Dover, England.

On September 5, the UK’s Coordination Center confirmed that the vessel was located, and all aboard were picked up.

“The caller had conducted an internet search for the ‘Dover Police Department,’ and the first result was the Dover, Delaware Police Department. The family member believed they were contacting Dover, England, but reached our agency in the United States,” Delaware police said.

While it is unknown if the caller is involved in human trafficking, many Albanian nationals have been linked to the criminal activity in the English Channel as recently as July, when a smuggler was sentenced to nine years in prison for helping hundreds of migrants reach the UK illegally. Albanian drug gangs have also been found paying for the passage of illegals to recruit them as drug dealers once they reach Britain.

Border Encounters Are Up Again.

The number of illegal aliens encountered at the U.S. southern border ticked up by three percent in August despite the Biden-Harris government importing tens of thousands of migrants through so-called “legal pathways.” Over 58,000 illegals were apprehended at the southwest border last month, an increase compared to July but down from the quarter of a million apprehensions logged in December.

After years of claiming that executive action could not curb record-breaking illegal immigration at the southern border, the Biden-Harris government has finally begun taking action to reduce the influx ahead of the November elections. However, the decreases relative to 2021-23 are in large part due to the government bringing migrants who would otherwise cross the border illegally into the U.S. via “legal pathways” instead.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) encountered over 47,700 migrants at southwest border ports of entry in August. This is more than triple the figure for August 2021, the first year of the Biden-Harris government, and likely comprised mainly of migrants who have made CBP One app appointments. Up to 1,450 migrants a day can make appointments to come to ports of entry and claim asylum through the CBP One app. A separate ‘CHNV’ program for Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans, and Venezuelans allows up to 30,000 migrants a month to be flown into the U.S. directly.

LEGAL ILLEGALS.

The Biden-Harris Department of Homeland Security (DHS) boasts that “encounters of CHNV nationals in between [ports of entry] are down 99 percent” since the program was implemented, but the fact CHNV migrants are being flown in “legally” rather than crossing the border without permission will be cold comfort to Americans who believe they should not be in America at all. At least 530,000 CHNV migrants have been “paroled” into the U.S. in the year to August 2024.

On Sunday, former President Donald J. Trump vowed to “stop all migrant flights, end all illegal entries, terminate the Kamala phone app for smuggling illegals (CBP One App), revoke deportation immunity, suspend refugee resettlement, and return Kamala’s illegal migrants to their home countries (also known as remigration)” if reelected.

MSM: Harris-Walz Make History… For Their Lack of Interviews and Press Access.

Mainstream media outlets admit that Democratic candidate Kamala Harris and her running mate Tim Walz have granted so few interviews during their campaign that they may be setting record lows for a modern presidential bid. During the 59 days Harris has been the Democratic candidate, she only participated in one national interview, one national print interview, and one local television interview. Tim Walz has given three local television interviews and one national interview. Neither has participated in a single press conference.

By contrast, former President Donald J. Trump has given seven local television interviews, two national television interviews, one national print interview, and three press conferences over the same period. He has also appeared on several high-profile, long-form podcasts.

Trump’s running mate, Senator J.D. Vance, has conducted 15 local television interviews, eight print interviews, a massive 24 national television interviews, and 12 press conferences, giving the Trump campaign 73 interviews to the Harris campaign’s five.

The statistics do not even count over 25 briefer media appearances by Trump and Vance on various networks or the radio interviews done by either candidate. Even President Biden participated in more interviews during the COVID-19 pandemic than Harris despite remaining secluded throughout most of the 2020 campaign.

Harris and Walz also have long records of supporting radical left policies, such as banning fracking and using taxpayer money to fund sex changes for prisoners. However, they are trying to downplay their past radicalism, presenting themselves as moderates. The lack of interviews has stopped them from being pressed on their past views too strongly.

Some of Harris’s current policies, such as a pathway to citizenship for millions of illegals and taxing unrealized capital gains, are as radical as her past positions.

Map Suggests ‘Great Job Replacement’ of American Workers with Migrants in Small Towns and Cities.

A map showing the spread of migrants across the United States last year suggests they are displacing blue-collar workers in small towns and cities. Based on immigration court case data, the map provides a county-by-county breakdown of migrant populations.

The data, which show where 1.8 million migrants have settled, reveals significant clusters in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast metro areas, as well as the Midwest and Rust Belt regions. Swing states received 12 percent of all migrants, with significant numbers going to blue counties. The Biden-Harris government and non-governmental organizations seem to have worked to strategically place migrants in smaller towns and cities where they can potentially displace local blue-collar workers.

Reports indicate that, for instance, Haitian migrants transplanted to Charleroi, Pennsylvania, are being used to staff food-packing plants, displacing local workers. Former President Donald J. Trump has personally highlighted how the “small 4,000-person town of Charleroi… has experienced a 2,000 percent increase in the population of Haitian migrants under Kamala Harris,” leaving “the schools scrambling to hire translators for the influx of students who don’t speak English, costing local taxpayers hundreds of thousands of dollars.”

Source: Bloomberg.

According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics American-born workers have lost around 1.2 million jobs while migrant workers have gained 1.3 million jobs over the last year. Illegal immigrant labor also plays a significant factor, with some sectors, such as food delivery, seeing an explosion in illegal migrant workers despite lacking valid work permits or vehicle insurance.

In the Biden-Harris economy, Americans have been forced, in some cases, to take on two or more jobs to make ends meet, with many struggling to find enough work hours to pay their bills.

Is Doug Emhoff High!? His Latest Claim Suggests So.

Doug Emhoff, the husband of Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris, is telling major party donors that he believes his wife can win Florida in November. Speaking at a fundraiser in Manhattan on Wednesday evening, Emhoff told attendees that Florida is a potential battleground state and one Democrats should focus on.

“The map is wide open, and we need the money to compete in seven and possibly eight states. I was just in Florida at the Villages and it was wild,” Emhoff said. “It was way more people than we thought, and there was a lot of excitement, and we’re going to see what we can do down in Florida.”

Despite Democrats having secured two ballot initiatives aimed at driving turnout for the party—one expanding abortion and the other legalizing marijuana—polling and the 2022 midterm election results suggest the state remains far out of reach. Prior to Joe Biden dropping out of the 2024 presidential race, former President Donald J. Trump led the 81-year-old Democrat incumbent in the state by double digits despite the abortion ballot measure.

Meanwhile, the RealClearPolitics polling average currently has Trump leading in the state by six points over Kamala Harris. Another recent poll shows him leading by ten points.

During the 2022 midterm, the Florida Democratic Party faced a near-extinction-level event. Republicans in the state won most races in landslides and now control every state-wide office for the first time since the 19th-century Reconstruction period following the American Civil War. In the Florida House of Representatives and State Senate, Republicans captured a supermajority of seats.

Academic Research: ‘Non-Citizens Prefer Democrats, Swing Elections, Change Congress.’

Researchers writing in the peer-reviewed Electoral Studies journal in 2014 estimated that 6.4 percent of noncitizens voted in the 2008 election. The 2014 paper Do non-citizens Vote in U.S. Elections? notes that while there is a legal ban on noncitizens voting, “enforcement depends principally on disclosure of citizenship status at the time of voter registration.”

The study authors found that noncitizen voters favored Democratic Party candidates and voted in sufficient numbers to change the composition of both the Electoral College and Congress. In particular, they found that noncitizen voters “likely gave Senate Democrats the pivotal 60th vote needed to overcome filibusters in order to pass health care reform and other Obama administration priorities in the 111th Congress.”

“We find that some non-citizens participate in U.S. elections, and that this participation has been large enough to change meaningful election outcomes including Electoral College votes, and Congressional elections,” researchers from the Department of Political Science at Old Dominion University and George Mason University wrote.

Earlier this year, The National Pulse reported that a federal investigation into noncitizen voters in North Carolina found that they were three times more likely to support Democrat candidates over Republican ones. Additionally, the investigators uncovered instances of local election officials knowingly registering noncitizens if they believed they would support Democratic Party candidates.

SAVE ACT.

Democratic lawmakers are opposing Republican efforts to improve election security through the Safeguarding American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, which would enhance citizenship checks. Democrats argue that because there is a ban on noncitizen voting on paper, there are no issues. However, as things stand, federal voter registration forms only require individuals to affirm their citizenship by checking a box, so the process relies on a de facto honor system.

House Republicans are currently trying to tie the SAVE Act to a short-term funding resolution, but the Biden-Harris government has vowed to veto it if it passes the House and somehow survives the Democrat-controlled Senate.

Can Non-Citizens Register to Vote? This Evidence Says YES.

The Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) appears to have clandestinely edited instructions on its government website in the past several days. The instructions suggested that noncitizens applying for an ID privilege card could register to vote when completing their application. Despite the language used in the instructions, Virginia state law prohibits noncitizens from participating in state elections, while U.S. law prohibits noncitizens from casting ballots in federal elections.

“You may complete these forms before or during your visit to DMV. Use your full legal name on the application. Abbreviations and nicknames will not be accepted. For your convenience, you also may apply to register to vote, change your voter registration address, or indicate your desire to become an organ donor when you apply for your ID privilege card,” the Virginia DMV website’s ‘Get an Identification Privilege Card’ page read until recently.

Notably, the same page clearly states that ID privilege cards are “…a non-driving ID credential for individuals who are non-U.S. citizens and cannot meet Virginia’s legal presence requirements, making them ineligible to receive a standard or REAL ID-compliant ID card in Virginia.”

Despite the Virginia DMV’s language suggesting that noncitizens can register to vote, the Virginia Department of Elections explicitly states a “Virginia Driver Privilege card (limited-duration license, permit or special identification card)” is not an accepted form of identification for election participation.

A SERIOUS CONCERN. 

Noncitizen voters have become a serious concern heading into the 2024 election. The National Pulse has previously reported that data suggests a statistically significant number of noncitizens are casting ballots illegally in federal elections. Earlier this week it was revealed that a data entry error in Oregon allowed over 300 noncitizens to be placed on state voter rolls.

Meanwhile, murky legal language has allowed noncitizens in other states to register to vote with state-issued driver’s licenses.

Journalists Are Building a Monument to Themselves on the National Mall.

A design for a memorial on the National Mall in Washington, D.C., ostensibly paying tribute to fallen journalists, has been unveiled. Backed by The Fallen Journalists Memorial Foundation, the project will cost $50 million, and the group has already raised $23 million privately. Barring any regulatory issues, the monument should be ready by 2028.

New monuments and memorials added to the National Mall and other federal properties in Washington, D.C., often undergo extensive regulatory reviews. The Fallen Journalists Memorial, however, appears to have received little scrutiny. Designed by John Ronan Architects, it is a garish glass stadium structure with a concrete floor, and the First Amendment etched into a glass slab in its center.

The architect claims the design evokes a classroom or press room. According to the Washingtonian magazine, the memorial consists of a “massive structure composed of numerous separate glass elements” that are “haphazard” in their placement, “indicating disconnected data points that come together to form a story.” The memorial will contain over 300 individual glass elements and, at a $50 million price tag, could have long-term upkeep costs given the construction materials.

“We started out with looking at ice cubes,” Ronan says of the design. “Journalism is about transparency, and the memorial needed to take up the themes of transparency and light.”

Whistleblower Says Fed Leading Assassination Probe Is ‘Vocally Anti-Trump.’

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) agent probing the assassination attempt against former President Donald J. Trump in Florida allegedly has a history of anti-Trump rhetoric. Last year, whistleblowers told Congress that Special Agent Jeffrey Veltri, who heads the Miami bureau leading the investigation, is “adamantly and vocally anti-Trump.”

“[FBI Director Christopher] Wray, [Deputy Director Paul] Abbate, and [Executive Assistant Director Jennifer] Moore wanted to ensure that Veltri appeared non-political, [so] Veltri was ordered to remove all of his Facebook and Social media posts that were anti-Trump,” the whistleblower told the House Judiciary Committee as Veltri was being promoted to head the Miami bureau—which covers the former president’s home. The whistleblower also says Veltri moved to suspend the security clearance of any agent he deemed to be a “right-wing radical.”

While the FBI denied these allegations as “demonstrably false” at the time, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is expressing broader misgivings about the federal government handling the assassination probe.

“In my judgment, it’s not in the best interest of our state or our nation to have the same federal agencies that are seeking to prosecute Donald Trump leading this investigation,” said the America First leader’s former rival. In DeSantis’s estimation, assassination suspect Ryan Routh‘s “most serious, straightforward [alleged] offense” is attempted murder, which is a crime under state rather than federal law. State law enforcement has been directed to investigate accordingly.
