Now a Tawdry Election Betting Scandal Has Gripped the UK Election

An insider-knowledge betting scandal is tainting the British general election. Senior Conservative Party figures—and even some police officers—stand accused of using inside info to place bets on the election date shortly before it was announced by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak.

Sunak’s Parliamentary Private Secretary (PPS) Craig Williams, also a parliamentary candidate, admits placing a £100 (~$128) bet at 5-1 odds on Sunak calling the election for July 4. The Gambling Commission is investigating him, leading to his suspension as a Conservative candidate—though it’s too late to remove him from the ballots.

He insists he “committed an error of judgment, not an offense” and “intend[s] to clear [his] name.”

The Gambling Commission is also investigating Laura Saunders, another candidate, suspecting she learned the election date from her husband, Tony Lee, the Conservative Party’s director of campaigns. The Commission is also probing Lee. The party has suspended Saunders along with Willams.

A more comprehensive investigation now encompasses a significant number of candidates, candidates’ relatives, and candidates’ friends. Data analysis shows a highly suspicious surge in election day bets just before Sunak announced the date.

Several police officers are implicated in the scandal, with one of Sunak’s close protection officers becoming the first of six officers placed under investigation. Authorities arrested this officer for misconduct in public office, with some questioning why he is facing harsher treatment than the politicians suspected of wrongdoing.

Efforts by Conservatives to reap relatively small sums of money from the election as they face a landslide defeat have further damaged their public reputation. Nigel Farage’s Reform Party leads the Conservatives nationally.

49 States Are Now Supplying ‘Non-Citizens’ With Voter Registration Forms.

Illegal aliens and other “non-citizens” can receive voter registration forms without needing to show proof of citizenship in at least 49 states. They can use these forms to access welfare benefits and obtain driver’s licenses and mail-in ballots. Only Arizona has passed a law preventing this—but it applies only to state forms, not federal ones.

The National Voter Registration Act (NVRA) of 1993 mandates that states facilitate voter registration at the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) and welfare offices. These agencies must provide voter registration forms alongside application papers. Without a federal law requiring proof of citizenship for voter registration forms, migrants can simply claim to be U.S. citizens to register to vote, easily bypassing the official ban on non-citizens voting.

The House Administration Committee has approved the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act to combat this. House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) also emphasizes the need for increased enforcement measures. However, with foreign aid and spending bills desired by the Democrat-controlled Senate and the White House already passed, the GOP has little chance of compelling them to pass new election integrity bills.

Federal prosecutions, state investigations, and audits reveal numerous non-citizens registered to vote. Former Federal Election Commission (FEC) member Hans von Spakovsky highlights various instances of non-Americans voting illegally in elections at different levels.

Polling suggests at least a fifth of mail-in ballots in 2020 were tainted by fraud, compromising the legitimacy of an election that came down to a few thousand votes in a handful of states.

Why Did Joe Biden Remortgage His Properties 35 Times?

Joe and Jill Biden have tapped two Delaware properties for $4.2 million in cash since 1975. According to a report, the Bidens refinanced the mortgages on the two homes at least 35 times over the past four decades, negotiating a new mortgage or line of credit about every 17 months. The number of refinancing deals sheds further light on the Biden family’s business practices and cash flows—and raises questions regarding whether the powerful Delaware Democrats benefited from banks bending their lending rules.

Typically, mortgage lenders have a “seasoning” requirement, which limits a borrower’s ability to refinance their mortgage every six months. The Biden family, however, appears to have been able to waive this waiting period on at least a handful of occasions over the years. Additionally, lenders typically only allow borrowers to renegotiate only 80 to 90 percent of their home value as part of a cash-out-refinance. This should mean the amount of money the Bidens could pull from their properties after each subsequent refinancing was drastically limited unless they accessed other income to reduce the loan‘s principle.

Joe Biden sold the first of his two properties—a home in Wilmington, Delaware—in 1996. That home had at least 15 mortgages and lines of credit attached to it. Consequently, Biden purchased his second Delaware home in the same year and has refinanced the property at least 20 times. The second property still has an outstanding $541,000 mortgage.

In addition to the concerns regarding the ethics of the loan refinancing deals Biden secured, the mortgage arrangements also raise questions as to why the Biden family—with its estimated $10 million net worth—would need such frequent access to additional funds. Joe Biden and his son, Hunter Biden, remain under Congressional investigation over their family’s foreign business dealings.

Germany’s Political Class RAPIDLY Backpedals From Ukraine Support.

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz admits his government’s support is crashing in part because it is supporting the NATO proxy war with Russia in Ukraine. Scholz says voters harmed by dueling sanctions have shown their discontent “in the election results”—but he insists there is “no alternative” to the current policy.

The anti-mass migration, eurosceptic Alternative for Germany (AfD) placed above Scholz’s Social Democrats in the European Parliament elections, as well as the far-left Greens and neoliberal Free Democrats who make up the incumbent coalition government.

The AfD is especially dominant in the former East Germany, where the Social Democrats are polling as low as seven percent ahead of regional elections in September. Scholz says the prospect of AfD state premiers is “very depressing.”

The notionally center-right Christian Democratic Union (CDU), formerly led by Angela Merkel, appears more willing to shift its position on Ukraine. Current leader Friedrich Merz, formerly a war hawk, is now lobbying for peace talks, saying, “We must see that we open up possibilities for how to bring this conflict to an end at some point.”

Polls project Merz to replace Scholz as Chancellor after the German federal elections in 2025.

Scholz also expressed some regret over the German government’s draconian crackdown on citizens during the Chinese coronavirus pandemic.

“There were a few decisions that were over the top,” he now admits, citing sweeping school closures and a ban on forest walks.

Biden Govt Used J6 & Mar-a-Lago Raid To Justify MORE Spying on Political Opponents

America First Legal has published documents revealing that the Department of Homeland Security’s intel group advocated spying on Americans critical of the government post-January 6th.

The Homeland Intelligence Experts Group initially considered it “inappropriate” to gather intel on Americans before January 6.

However, internal meeting notes later showed discussions about expanding efforts to monitor individuals deemed Domestic Violent Extremists (DVEs), many of whom were described as supporters of the former president, using January 6th as a catalyst.

Members of the Homeland Intelligence Experts Group also called for federal monitoring of certain websites as potential domestic extremism threats.

They allegedly urged DHS intelligence and analysis to employ practices that even the FBI purportedly lacks authority.

The FBI raid on former President Donald J. Trump’s Florida residence, Mar-a-Lago, was cited in the documents as a reason to justify expanding their activities, citing potential violent reactions to the raid.

America First Legal filed a lawsuit against DHS in November, prompting the Biden government to agree to disband the Homeland Intelligence Experts Group, which included former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper and former CIA Director John Brennan.

The legal team highlighted that nearly 98 percent of the group’s participants favored Democrats in their political donations. America First Legal has pledged to release additional documents as part of its Deep State Diaries series.

Capitol Hill Police Chief Steven Sund revealed to Tucker Carlson last year that members of the DHS were among the crowd on January 6, with at least 20 members of Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) present undercover, claiming the number to be remarkably high.

Rishi Sunak’s Deportation Plan Is ‘Crap,’ Admits Top Government Aide.

A senior aide to British Home Secretary James Cleverly admits Prime Minister Rishi Sunak‘s now-scrapped Rwanda migrant deportation plan was “crap,” according to a leaked recording from an April private meeting. James Sunderland, Parliamentary Private Secretary to Cleverly and a Conservative election candidate, said, “I have been part of this for the last two years… nobody has got their cameras or phones on, have they? The policy is crap, OK? It’s crap.”

Defending his aide’s remarks, the Home Secretary claimed Sunderland intended to capture attention and have a dramatic effect and that he supports the plan. Cleverly also allegedly criticized the policy, describing it as “bats**t”—although he denied using such language.

The National Pulse reported in December that the Conservative government had spent nearly £300 million on its Rwanda deportation policy even though the newest version of the plan would only possibly see a handful of migrants sent to the African nation.

Cleverly hailed the revised agreement with Rwanda at the time, stressing that it “addresses all the issues raised by their lordships in the Supreme Court.”

Prior to court intervention, Rwanda received £140 million from the United Kingdom as part of the original deal devised by former Prime Minister Boris Johnson. No migrants were relocated to Rwanda under the original agreement before the UK courts ruled it unlawful.

Following the court battle, Prime Minister Sunak announced he was suspending the deportation plan until after the July 4 election, which his party is projected to lose in a potential landslide. Sir Keir Starmer’s Labour Party, projected to win with a large majority, is pledging to scrap the policy altogether.

A New, Pro-Deportation Song is Spreading Through France.

“I Won’t Leave” – a pro-deportation song – is gaining traction across France, especially amongst young voters. Titled Je Partira Pas in French, the song is reportedly generated by artificial intelligence (AI) and tells migrants: “You’ve been given enough. If you go, and sooner than you think, good riddance and don’t come back.” This comes ahead of snap legislative elections, where Marine Le Pen’s National Rally appears poised for victory.

The popularity of Je Partira Pas follows German youths embracing a song titled Ausländer Raus (Foreigners Out). Videos of German youths singing “Germany for Germans, Foreigners out” are causing panic among politicians and triggering official police inquiries. In some polls, the populist Alternative for Germany (AfD) party is emerging as the leading party among Germans aged 14 to 29.

The French song’s lyrics mention Jordan Bardella, President of National Rally. They suggest he will forcibly deport migrants.

National Rally attracts significant backing from young adults, with 45 percent of 25- to 34-year-olds expressing support for it. Among 18- to 24-year-olds, the far-left Nouveau Front Populaire (New Popular Front) garners the most support.

National Rally placed first in the European elections in France, with roughly double the support of Macron’s Renaissance party. The national elections will have two rounds, on June 30 and July 7.

Head of LGBT Maryland Dems Sent Nudes, Rape Fantasy Texts to Minor.

The head of the Maryland Democratic Party’s LGBT caucus allegedly sought to arrange a sexual encounter with a 14-year-old minor by text. Michael Knaapen admits the texts, which include nudes and an expressed desire to rape the supposed child and film the encounter, are real. However, he claims he did not really intend to meet the minor and engage in the acts. 

Alex Rosen, who routinely confronts adults who message people they believe to be minors, recorded the confrontation in Montgomery County, Maryland. Rosen notes Knaapen had given out his home address, undermining his claims he did not want to meet in person.

Knaapen insists his stated desire to “rape” the child was a “fantasy” the minor “seemed to enjoy.” Rosen shows screenshots of the chats on X, formerly Twitter.

FORM. 

Visitor logs reveal that Knaapen visited the White House three times last year. He is only the latest Biden regime ally to face accusation of sexual conduct involving minors.

The courts sentenced another Maryland Democrat, Patrick Wojahn, to 30 years in prison last year on 140 counts of possession and distribution of child sexual abuse material. Wojahn also visited the White House several times and was known as a close confidant of Transport Secretary Pete Buttigieg.

In 2022, The National Pulse exposed former Biden regime official Sam Brinton. The Energy Department fired the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence drag queen after he was arrested for stealing women’s luggage from airports on official business.

U.S. Prosecutors Push for Criminal Charges Against Boeing.

U.S. prosecutors have urged the Department of Justice (DOJ) to file criminal charges against Boeing, citing breaches of a settlement agreement related to two deadly crashes of 737 Max aircraft that killed 346 people. This follows accusations that Boeing violated a deferred prosecution agreement (DPA) established after the crashes in October 2018 with Lion Air and March 2019 with Ethiopian Airlines.

Ed Pierson, Executive Director of the Foundation for Aviation Safety and a former Boeing senior manager, emphasized the gravity of this decision, pointing to ongoing issues with Boeing’s 737 Max and 787 models, blaming management practices for these persistent problems.

In January, an incident involving a dislodged door panel from a new 737 Max operated by Alaska Airlines further heightened safety concerns. Whistleblowers have reported production flaws in the 737 Max, 787 Dreamliner, and 777 models to the Senate, which is conducting an investigation into Boeing’s manufacturing processes.

One of the whistleblowers, John Barnett, apparently died by suicide after coming forward, despite previously telling friends, “if anything happens to me, it’s not suicide.”

Relatives of crash victims are demanding a $25 billion fine against Boeing and criminal prosecution, following a 2021 $2.5 billion settlement agreement. This settlement includes provisions for dropping criminal charges after three years if Boeing adheres to specific requirements. However, the DOJ contends that Boeing has failed to implement adequate compliance and ethics programs.

Boeing’s outgoing CEO, Dave Calhoun, faced intense scrutiny from U.S. senators last week. Despite Calhoun’s assurances that the company had learned from past mistakes and that whistleblower procedures were effective, lawmakers accused him of fostering a culture of retaliation. Calhoun will step down at the end of 2024 after nearly five years in the role but will remain on Boeing’s board.

MeidasTouch Chief Likens His Work to Political Arson, Gloats Over Posting Fake Clips.

Ron Filipkowski, Editor-in-Chief of the far-left MeidasTouch Network, has likened his organization’s behavior on social media to criminal arson, “dropping a burning ember in a dry forest” and creating a “big blaze” of fake news within hours.

MeidasTouch, praised by the Joe Biden regime as its “front lines” on social media, launched its most successful arson attack to date in March with the “bloodbath” hoax. The network deceptively edited a clip of Donald Trump talking about a metaphorical bloodbath for the auto industry under Biden and presented it as though he was threatening political violence if he loses the election in November. Biden disseminated the same misinformation.

“Right-wingers have been clipping Democrats, clipping Biden, with deceptive posts,” Filipkowski alleged, implying his own output is deceptive with the rhetorical question, “Why aren’t the Democrats doing this to Trump?”

Founded by brothers Jordan, Brett, and Ben Meiselas, linked to the Hillary Clinton campaign and accused sex trafficker Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, a.k.a. Puff Daddy, one of MeidasTouch’s early funders was the Lincoln Project. The Never Trump group was co-founded by John Weaver, who had to resign after he was accused of sexual harassment and grooming by over 20 young males, including a 14-year-old.

Another controversial MeidasTouch backer is LinkedIn billionaire Reid Hoffman. The portly plutocrat is a Democrat megadonor who has also funded Nimarata ‘Nikki’ Haley’s primary challenge against Trump, E. Jean Carroll’s lawsuit against Trump, and Fusion GPS, responsible for the Russia hoax Steele Dossier against Trump. Hoffman is also a former guest of child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein’s private island.

MeidasTouch hosts several highly controversial contributors, including Michael Cohen, the convicted perjuror and disbarred lawyer, and ‘Coach D,’ who believes America’s Founding Fathers were all white supremacist pedophiles.
