‘Valid ID’ Was Required For The Biden-Obama-Clinton Fundraiser in New York.

At President Joe Biden‘s fancy fundraiser in New York City, guests were made to present a valid form of photo ID to enter. Instructions received by guests note the name on their ID must match the name printed on their ticket. The identification and name-match requirements contrast with the Democrat Party’s opposition to similar requirements in U.S. elections.

Republican state lawmakers across the country have pushed for strong voter ID laws, ballot custody restrictions, and name-match requirements for years. They contend that these measures are critical to reducing instances of election fraud. The issue became especially prevalent after the 2020 presidential election when questions of ballot integrity in several states lingered. While national Democrats have dismissed Republican concerns as ‘unfounded,’ there have been several instances of Democrat politicians and activists facing prosecution for election fraud in subsequent contests since 2020.

NUMEROUS FRAUD PROSECUTIONS.

In Washington, D.C., a local Democrat elected official received a $500 fine for committing voter fraud during the 2020 election – voting in both the District of Columbia and the State of Maryland. Two New Jersey Democrats were indicted by the state’s Attorney General for multiple instances of election fraud in elections held in 2020 and 2021. Another former New Jersey Democrat party official was indicted for election fraud this past February relating to a mail-in-ballot scheme.

The results of a local run-off election for sheriff were voided by a Louisiana judge after serious evidence of the election was uncovered. Democrat Henry Whitehorn appeared to have narrowly defeated Republican Republican John Nickelson by a single vote; however, at least eleven ballots were shown to have been cast fraudulently. Whitehorn subsequently won the do-over election.

One of the most concerning instances of fraud has been the ongoing drama surrounding the mayor’s race in Bridgeport, Connecticut — which will now be held a third time after the initial two elections were voided due to fraud.

VOTERS SUPPORT ID REQUIREMENT.

Meanwhile, survey data from Pew Research shows that voters overwhelmingly support election integrity measures. A massive 81 percent of respondents said they favor requiring people to show government-issued photo identification to vote, and 82 percent said they favor requiring paper ballot backups for electronic voting machines. Seventy-two percent of those polled said they were in favor of making Election Day a national holiday, while 76 percent say early voting should be available for two weeks prior to Election Day.

SURPRISE! Star Witness in Trump Impeachment Now a Lobbyist for Ukraine.

One of the key witnesses from the Congressional Democrats’ 2019 impeachment of then-President Donald Trump over frozen Ukraine aid has now registered as a foreign agent on behalf of the Eastern European country. Gordon Sondland, who served as the United States Ambassador to the European Union from 2018 until 2020, says he registered his activities with the Biden government out of an abundance of caution.

According to Sondland, he isn’t receiving any compensation for his current lobbying on behalf of aid for Ukraine, which he is doing purely on a volunteer basis. Addressing his current activities, Sondland told POLITICO: “I’m trying to win the hearts and minds of those who aren’t quite there yet.”

STAR DEMOCRAT IMPEACHMENT WITNESS.

Sondland’s testimony during the 2019 impeachment probe suggested that he believed the former President withheld aid as part of a quid pro quo scheme to force Ukraine to investigate allegations of corruption committed by individuals in the country with ties to Joe and Hunter Biden. The quid pro quo accusation became critical to the Democrat impeachment proceedings.

“Was there a ‘quid pro quo?” Sondland said in his opening remarks during a 2019 impeachment hearing. “The answer is yes.” He went on to make an outlandish claim that top officials across the Trump administration were aware of the quid pro quo scheme, stating, “Everyone was in the loop. It was no secret.”

Despite the fantastical allegations leveled by Sondland, he could not provide material evidence of the supposed deal. The Republican impeachment counsel Steve Castor described the ambassador as a “trifecta of unreliability” after Sondland admitted he had never heard Trump describe any preconditions for Ukraine to receive military aid directly. The former ambassador was removed from his post just days after the U.S. Senate voted to acquit Trump of the partisan charges brought by House Democrats.

Poland Says Biden Had Advance Knowledge of Nord Stream Pipeline Attack.

Poland’s Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski has again suggested a U.S. role in the 2022 destruction of the Nord Stream gas pipelines.

Sikorski, whose globalist government had not yet taken power at the time of the Nord Stream attacks, thanked the U.S. for their destruction the day after the blasts.

Having displaced the former national conservative government as part of a vengeful, Biden-endorsed coalition, he is more coy but continues to suggest America was involved.

“[I]t was done by someone who had a vested interest in it,” he told Polish media, adding that “the American side had advance knowledge of this and did not prevent it” — at least “if you believe the press.”

“So it seems that there was something to be thankful for… my personal attitude to Nord Stream has been known for many years,” he added, before again reiterating that he “believe[s] it was done by someone who had a vested interest.”

Before the full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, Biden had warned that there would “no longer be a Nord Stream 2” if Russian forces crossed the border, adding in no uncertain terms, “we will bring an end to it.”

The destruction of the pipelines has proved highly damaging to the European Union, particularly Germany, with EU member-states forced to replace Russian gas with more expensive liquefied natural gas from the U.S. and Arab dictatorships such as Qatar.

DATA: 74% of Hispanics Support Use of ‘Illegal’ to Describe Laken Riley’s Killer.

The vast majority of Hispanics support labeling Laken Riley’s killer — Venezuelan national Jose Antonio Ibarra — ‘illegal.’ A significant majority of Hispanics also disapprove of Biden’s performance as President.

When Joe Biden used the term ‘illegal’ to describe Ibarra during his State of the Union address, it was followed by an outcry from far-left extremists in the Democratic Party and pro-illegal immigration advocates across the country. However, nearly three-quarters of Hispanics — 74 percent — believe it was appropriate for Joe Biden to use the term, according to a recent Harvard/Harris poll.

A majority of Hispanics — 63 percent — also believe that the border crisis is getting worse. Seventy-one percent of Hispanics think that the Biden government must do more to make it harder for illegals to enter the country. Sixty-nine percent of Hispanics also believe that Riley’s murder proves stricter immigration policies are necessary.

The poll also suggests that the Biden regime’s willful mishandling of the border crisis is turning support for stricter border enforcement into a bipartisan issue. Seventy percent of all voters polled believe that Riley’s murder highlighted the need for stricter immigration controls, with 84 percent of Republicans, 62 percent of Democrats, and 64 percent of swing voters agreeing.

The data also illustrates the extent to which Hispanic voters — once considered a reliable Democratic constituency — are losing faith in Biden and the Democrats. Sixty-eight percent of Hispanics disapprove of the job Biden is doing on the economy overall, and 70 percent disapprove of his handling of inflation.  Sixty-five percent disapprove of his handling of foreign affairs, and 63 percent disapprove of his handling of immigration.

South Carolina Finds $2BN in Bank Account, Doesn’t Know Where It’s From.

The state of South Carolina has discovered roughly $1.8 billion in a bank account accrued over the past decade, with no clear understanding of its origin or intended recipients.

Republican State Senator Larry Grooms from South Carolina, who is leading a Senate panel investigation into the matter, likened the situation to a bank having money in its vault without knowing who it belongs to. The discovery of the large sum comes amid other concerns over the state’s financial records following the 2020 resignation of the state’s top accountant, elected Republican comptroller general Richard Eckstrom, after a $3.5 billion accounting blunder.

The investigation, currently tackled by state and private accountants, is focused on uncovering whence the huge sum came and why state officials never addressed the issue.

With records showing the origins of the $1.8 billion yet to surface, the situation casts a shadow on the state’s financial integrity. However, as Republican Governor Henry McMaster optimistically put it, “The good news is no money was lost.” Furthermore, elected Republican Treasurer Curtis Loftis was reportedly able to make nearly $200 million in interest by investing the money from the mysterious account.

Following the discovery of the mystery money, a constitutional amendment has been approved by the Senate to have the comptroller general be an appointed — rather than elected — position. The proposal is now pending a vote from the House.

South Carolina‘s accounting troubles can be traced back to multiple historical issues. However, given the significant amount of money lying unclaimed, ongoing investigations are essential to clarify the money’s origins.

Sadiq Khan Lights London with ‘Happy Ramadan’ Displays over Holy Week and Easter Weekend.

London’s public spaces are being festooned with ‘Happy Ramadan’ lights through Holy Week and Easter weekend, the most important holiday period for Christians.

Ramadan, a period of fasting in Mayor Sadiq Khan’s Islamic faith, moves in line with the moon each year. This year, it overlaps with Holy Week and Eastertide and appears to be taking precedence over them, despite the United Kingdom’s status as a constitutionally Christian country.

London’s Ramadan displays, now in their second year, adorn the key locations in the West End, including Piccadilly Circus, Leicester Square, and Oxford Street. Khan, of the left-wing Labour Party, personally switched on the lights earlier this month.

The choice of decoration, funded by the Aziz Foundation set up by billionaire property magnate Asif Aziz, has drawn criticism from some Conservatives.

“The thing I would question is this: there has been a Ramadan celebration in the window of Westminster city hall. But I just wonder if the Easter one is going up very soon? Easter is one of the most important Christian festivals of the year but what are [the Labour-run municipal government] doing to celebrate it?” he asked.

“I am not aware they are. I suspect the window display is not going to change.”

Some have also noted the Ramadan decorations are going up at a time when London is gripped by anti-Israel protests every weekend, with some featuring open calls for jihad.

13.7 Million Illegals So Far Under Biden, Proving Trump’s Predictions Right.

New data shows that the number of illegal aliens in the United States has risen to 13.7 million under President Joe Biden, marking an increase of 37 percent. In addition, the total foreign-born population in the U.S. was an estimated 51.4 million in February 2024, a new record high. The number of foreign-born individuals in the country has increased by 6.4 million since Biden took office in January 2021.

In October, President Trump told The National Pulse exclusively that he believed Biden would preside over the importation of upwards of 15 million illegals. The new data shows Trump is likely to end up almost exactly correct by the end of the Biden term.

An average of 172,000 legal and illegal immigrants arrived in the U.S. each month under President Biden. However, the data — from the Center for Immigrant Studies (CIS) and based on the Census Bureau’s Current Population Survey (CPS) — may not fully account for the number of illegal aliens in the country.

The National Pulse previously reported that a retired immigration judge uncovered evidence that the Biden government has released over 100,000 illegals into the U.S. each month. This suggests the Census Bureau’s survey may be drastically undercounting the number of illegal aliens entering the country.

A bulk of the immigrant arrivals into the U.S. under Biden have come from Latin America — although other data suggests that  African, Middle Eastern, and Asian illegal aliens are beginning to comprise greater shares of those encountered by border agents. Additionally, among the 6.4 million who’ve entered the U.S. in the past three years, 44 percent lack having attained an education level beyond high school.

Immigrants now comprise 15.5 percent of the U.S. population. Last year, the Census Bureau released an estimate stating the U.S. wouldn’t hit that number until 2040. Under former President Donald Trump, just 42,000 immigrants were entering the U.S. each month — with the number trending on a decline prior to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Obama government saw 76,000 immigrants entering the country monthly.

Jan 6 Defendant Released.

January 6 defendant Kevin Seefried of Laurel, Delaware, has been granted early release from prison after the Supreme Court agreed to take up a relevant appeal.

Seefried was handed a three-year prison term for “obstruction of an official proceeding,” with additional periods of one year and six months on misdemeanor charges.

The obstruction charge is at the center of the Supreme-Court-approved case Fischer v. United States, which questions the novel way Joe Biden’s Department of Justice (DOJ) has used it to prosecute many Jan 6 protestors.

While the DOJ argues the disruption of the 2020 election’s certification caused by protestors amounted to obstruction of an official proceeding, the relevant laws were passed in the wake of the Enron scandal. They were not intended to target protestors, but people who doctored and destroyed documents to sabotage an investigation by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Should Fischer succeed in the Supreme Court, a large number of protestors tried on obstruction of an official proceeding charges could be freed. Moreover, “conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding” and “obstruction of and attempt to obstruct an official proceeding” are among the charges special prosecutor Jack Smith has leveled at Donald Trump, and Fischer‘s success could cut the case against the former president “in half.”

Years on from 2021, Jan 6 prosecutions are accelerating rather than decelerating. Prosecutors are targeting protestors for increasingly minor offenses, including MAGA influencer Isabella DeLuca, whose alleged crime is touching a table that was later passed out of a broken window.

Finally, A Win for Election Integrity!

Republicans won a major battle over election integrity in Pennsylvania yesterday, as three Democrat judges voted in favor of signature verification for mail-in voting.

The details: The U.S. 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals, which is made up of three Democrat-appointed judges, ruled 2-1 to overturn a lower court’s previous ruling that said the state could not enforce a “dated signature requirement” for mail-in ballots.

Back up: In November 2022, the RNC sued to ensure signature verification, and the state Supreme Court ruled in their favor. But this past November, a federal court struck down that ruling, leading to this most recent appeal and judgment…

The 3rd Circuit declared: “The Pennsylvania General Assembly has decided that mail-in voters must date the declaration on the return envelope of their ballot to make their vote effective… thus, failure to comply renders a ballot invalid under Pennsylvania law.”

Big picture: In 2020, Pennsylvania saw 2,637,065 votes cast by mail-in ballot. And according to the official tally, Joe Biden won by roughly 80,000 votes.

  • Translation: Even the slightest amount of mail-in voter fraud could have been the deciding factor in that race.

Pennsylvania is critical. If it’s going to allow vote-by-mail, then having signature verification is a major step toward ensuring the upcoming election is secure.

Here’s How Mass Migration is Threatening America’s Food Security.

Animal health experts are warning that mass illegal immigration is threatening the United States’ food supply. Since 2021, authorities recorded an estimated nine million encounters with undocumented immigrants at the U.S.-Mexico border. These illegal aliens are rarely subject to any meaningful health checks and carry with them a variety of diseases.

“These people are just destroying our country. And our food supply is going to be a real critical issue,” Dr. Michael Vickers, a veterinarian who served on the Texas Animal Health Commission (TAHC), told The Epoch Times.

Vickers highlighted the fact that thousands of cattle in Texas were slaughtered after being infected with drug-resistant tuberculosis (TB). The source of these infections was the illegal aliens who worked at the affected dairies. Vickers noted that “people from Central America and beyond” milk “[m]ost of the dairy herds in the United States.”

In two cases, a combined 23,000 cattle were infected with TB. Investigators discovered that the TB strains were human and originated outside of the U.S. Twelve illegal aliens working with the herds were infected with TB, Vickers said.

Vickers also expressed concerns that the ongoing border crisis risks a severe New World screwworm epidemic. New World screwworm cases are surging in Central America, and last year, the USDA had to provide emergency funding to foreign farmers to combat outbreaks.

While the threat the ongoing border crisis poses to Americans is often evident, few realize how dangerous unfettered migration is to the U.S. food supply. Biden’s ‘newcomers‘ strain public resources, commit crime, and carry disease. Now those diseases risk destroying the country’s food supply.
