2.7 million non-citizens could cast votes in the 2024 election in November, according to a new study which adds weight to growing concerns that the Biden-Harris “open border” was part of a broader strategy to keep Democrats in power and ignore the will of the American people.

Nonprofit research institute, Just Facts, found that around “10% to 27% of non-citizen adults in the U.S. are now illegally registered to vote.”

It continues, “The U.S. Census recorded more than 19 million adult non-citizens living in the U.S. during 2022.“

“Given their voter registration rates, this means that about two million to five million of them are illegally registered to vote. These figures are potentially high enough to overturn the will of the American people in major elections, including congressional seats and the presidency.”

A 2014 study revealed that 81% of non-citizens cast votes for Democrats in the 2008 presidential election.

In the 2020 election, 70% of all votes cast were done by mail or early.

Without basic exit polling for the majority of votes, questions were raised about how voter fraud could be detected.

Just Facts study author James Agresti said non-citizens can register to vote relatively easily.

“In no state in the nation are they required to provide proof of U.S. citizenship in order to register to vote,” Agresti told The Washington Stand.

“And if you look at the federal voter registration form, it says you can submit all different forms of I.D. to register. That could be a Social Security number, it could be a driver’s license number, or it could just be a utility bill.”

“I mean, these are things that anyone can get by living here. They do not prove you’re a U.S. citizen.”

“And more than that, a lot of non-citizens have faked Social Security numbers, especially illegal immigrants,” he added. “That’s what they do to work.”

The Social Security Administration estimated that “tallied 2.5 million non-citizens who had Social Security numbers gained by using fake birth certificates or stealing those numbers from somebody else,” Agresti noted.

The Heritage Foundation’s Election Law Reform Initiative manager, Hans von Spakovsky, also highlighted the Just Facts study during testimony before Congress in May this year.

“This new study not only affirms the conclusions of the 2014 report but, based on an analysis of the more recent data, estimates that 10 to 27% of all aliens currently in the U.S. are registered to vote and that 5 to 13% of them will illegally vote in the 2024 presidential and congressional elections,” he said.

Meanwhile, Kerri Toloczko, executive director of the Election Integrity Network, said the number of non-citizens voting today is even higher than in the last election.

“A 2014 academic journal found that 6.4% of non-citizens voted in 2008,” Toloczko said. “There are about 24 million non-citizens in the U.S. right now. If they voted only at the same rate of 6.4% this year as they did in 2008, they would account for 1.5 million votes.”

“Based on the increased non-citizen activity at state DMVs, and the work of left-wing voter registration activists, this 6.4% could be much higher than it was in 2008,” she added. “We could be looking at over two million unlawful non-citizen votes.”

A Republican National Committee lawsuit against Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson resulted in new guidance on signature verification following issues in Warren during the August primary. The RNC sued Benson in September after incomplete guidance from her office resulted in thousands of absent voter ballots tabulated in Warren during the Aug. 6 primary “despite the complete absence of a statement by the clerk on the corresponding return envelope that the absent voter ballot is approved for tabulation as expressly required” under Michigan law, the lawsuit read.

“The clerk must verify that the signature on a returned absent voter ballot envelope matches the voter’s signature on file,” according to the updated guidance cited by The Federalist. “Approval can be expressed by completing and initialing the portion of the ‘clerk section’ indicating that the signature was verified.”

Guidance issued by Benson in February 2024 did not inform clerks of the requirement to include “a statement by the city or township clerk that the absent voter ballot is approved for verification” once the voter’s signature is verified, as required by law. Without that verification, the law states “the clerk shall reject the absent voter ballot and provide the elector with notice of the opportunity to cure the deficiency.”

“In response to our lawsuit, Secretary Benson has updated her guidance to require proof that signatures have been verified before ballots are counted,” according to a RNC statement.

Last week, former U.S. Ambassador Joseph Cella warned about dangers the Chinese Communist Party-linked Gotion battery plant pose to national security, particularly the Camp Grayling National Guard base used to train Taiwanese soldiers.

On Wednesday, federal prosecutors charged five University of Michigan graduates from China with spying on the military base as it conducted Northern Strike, one of the largest National Guard exercises in the nation that also involved the Taiwanese military, The Detroit News reports.

“Camp Grayling is the hub of the National All-Domain Warfighting Center, which trains our troops and those of our allies, including Taiwan, in strategic and tactical battle operations,” Cella told the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability during a hearing on the CCP last week, according to the Taipei Times.

FBI Special Agent Caroline Julee Colpoys wrote in a criminal complaint filed Wednesday that five Chinese nationals were found with cameras at Camp Grayling during Northern Strike on Aug. 13, 2023, when they were caught by a Utah National Guard sergeant major taking photos just feet from military vehicles, tents and communications equipment.

The tipping point is here. 

For the first time in decades, more Americans now identify as Republican (48%) than Democratic (45%).

More Americans are identifying as Republicans than Democrats for the first time in decades in what appears to be a grand awakening to the Washington establishment, according to a new Gallup poll.

Forty-eight percent of respondents to the poll said they either identify as Republicans or are leaning Republican for the upcoming election, compared with 45 percent who identified as Democrats.

Breitbart reports that the Gallup analysts also said that “nearly all” measures that have shown some relationship to past presidential election outcomes favor the GOP.

“By 46 percent to 41 percent, Americans say the Republican Party is better able than the Democratic Party to address what they think is the most important problem facing the country,” Gallup’s Jeffrey M. Jones wrote.

“The top issues Americans currently name as the most important are ones that tend to favor the GOP, including the economy (24 percent), immigration (22 percent), the government (17 percent) and inflation (15 percent).”

The last time that even the same number of Americans identified as Republican and Democrat in the third quarter of an election year (July to September) was in 2004, when former President George W. Bush won his second term.

Even when former President Donald Trump was successful in his 2016 election bid, only 43 percent of respondents identified with Republicans, compared to the Democrats’ 46 percent.

Taylor Swift’s endorsement of Kamala Harris appears to be impacting her streaming numbers significantly.

Since publicly endorsing Harris on September 10, the night of the presidential debate, Swift has reportedly lost more than 2 million listeners on Spotify, according to data shared by Chartmetric, a music streaming analytics company, with The Wrap.

Before the endorsement, Swift had around 94 million unique listeners on Spotify who had streamed her music in the past month.

By September 27, that number dropped to 91.9 million. For Swift, this decline could represent a hit to her earnings, as Spotify compensates artists based on the number of streams they receive.

Swift’s decline in popularity isn’t limited to Spotify.

The number of viewers for her YouTube videos in the U.S. also dropped by nearly 10% following her endorsement of Harris.

Data from Chartmetric shows that Swift had 102.4 million views on her YouTube channel in the month leading up to her endorsement, but by September 27, that number had fallen to 92.5 million.

Many Americans are generally sympathetic to what unions claim they stand for, honest pay for honest work. Even though they lean in different directions on unions, both liberals and conservatives can imagine scenarios where corporate power gets out of control and becomes exploitative, and it needs to be met with an opposing force.

But it’s a lot harder for most of us to sympathize with union bosses and the corrupt way in which they operate. As the nation sits through the first day of a Longshoreman’s union strike—47,000 dock and port workers on the east coast—that could cripple the supply chain worse than the government-bungled pandemic response, the head of the union is raising eyebrows.

Harold Daggett is the president of the International Longshoremen’s Association (the striking union). He sat down in front of a camera and delivered a list of dire consequences to other industries and his fellow Americans if the union’s demands aren’t met. Auto dealers out of cars? Too bad. President screaming at my guys to go back to work? Too bad. “I will cripple you,” Daggett said, looking and sounding like a movie mafioso, down to the vulgar gold chain.

Listen for yourself:

It gets better. Turns out—surprise!—Daggett has a past.

Daggett makes almost a million dollars a year, owns multiple yachts, and drives a Bentley. To be fair, union bosses aren’t asked to take a vow of poverty, as disproportionate as such compensation might seem.

But what about the fact that he’s been charged with racketeering by the Department of Justice (he beat both cases)? What about the fact that one of his co-defendants was found rotting in a car during the trial?

Seems a little harder to sympathize with him knowing that. Let’s see what X users had to say.

Why not start with Space Daddy and X owner Elon Musk?

A large-scale voter registration “glitch” saw almost 100,000 people in Arizona included on voter rolls without providing their proof of citizenship.

The Washington Post obtained the audio of a phone call between Governor Katie Hobbs, Secretary of State Adrian Fontes, and Attorney General Kris Mayes.

Attorney General Mayes called it an “urgent, dire situation” and expressed concern that they would be accused of trying to rig the 2024 election.

“When this goes public, it is going to have all of the conspiracy theorists in the globe—in the world—coming back to re-litigate the past three elections, at least in Arizona,” Hobbs said.

“And it’s going to validate all of their theories about illegal voting in our elections, even though we all know that’s not true.”

The phone call took place on 10 September.

At the time, it was believed that 150,000 voters were affected. However, this was later was revised to 100,000.

The biggest proportion of voters affected were Republicans.

During the 40-minute phone call, the three officials engage in a desperate debate over how to respond to the problem without disqualifying citizens who are eligible to vote.

During the conversation, Fontes said, “They’re going to beat us up no matter what the hell we do, no matter what the hell we say.”

During the 2020 election, Arizona was the second closest state with Biden carrying the state by around 11,000 votes or 0.3%.

Peter Doocy confronted White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre about the presence of thousands of illegal immigrants convicted of homicide who are currently living in the U.S.

Doocy raised concerns about data provided by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), which indicated that, as of July 21, 13,099 illegal immigrants convicted of homicide are freely residing across the country.

Doocy pressed Jean-Pierre on the issue, asking, “Thirteen-thousand people who’ve been convicted of murder crossed the border illegally and are living among us.

So how much danger are U.S. communities in right now because of this?”

Jean-Pierre responded by questioning the accuracy of the data, stating that it represented a “false representation” of the situation.

“I think it’s important to correct the record here, first of all, the false representation of the data ICE shared, so that’s what we’re seeing, false representation,” Jean-Pierre said. “We got to call that out, and this has been fact-checked by some of your colleagues here, by multiple, multiple, multiple outlets. That has been debunked on what has been falsely misrepresented here, so we have to call that out.”

Jean-Pierre further explained that the data about illegal immigrants convicted of these crimes is misleading, emphasizing the need for accuracy when reporting. “If we’re going to report something, and data that’s out there, we got to do it in the way that is not confusing the American people and certainly not lying,” she said. “And so, this has been fact-checked, and so the way that is being falsely represented here is just not okay and I got to be really clear about that.”

In addition to the 13,099 illegal immigrants convicted of homicide, ICE reported that 15,811 illegal immigrants convicted of sexual assault and 14,301 convicted of burglary are also residing in the U.S.

As of July 21, 662,566 non-citizens with criminal histories were listed on ICE’s national docket, including 435,719 convicted criminals and 226,847 individuals with pending criminal charges.

Text messages between Gotion Vice President Chuck Thelen and former Green Charter Township Supervisor Jim Chapman confirm Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) hosted a member of the Chinese Communist Party at the governor’s summer residence on Mackinac Island.

Thelen was organizing a visit to Green Charter Township for Gotion High-tech Chairman Zhen Li in mid-2023, according to texts recently made public from a lawsuit involving the company and township.

In an April 2024 Q & A, Thelen was asked if Zhen Li had ever visited Mecosta County (in Michigan) and he answered affirmatively, but went beyond that: “We’ve also met with some higher officials in Lansing. We met some higher officials in another location during the summer time because those officials were on vacation so we went to where they were,” Thelen said.

In the text messages between Thelen and Chapman, Thelen said the “chairman” wanted to visit July 12th or 13th. “I hope to visit the (proposed Gotion) site early afternoon then (Ferris State University) for a short tour and then we have to meet Gretchen (Whitmer) on Mackinac Island,” Thelen wrote. Photographs that circulated throughout the Green Charter Township community on July 11 showed several representatives of Gotion in the area that day. Zhen Li is founder of Gotion High-Tech and Gotion Inc. is the wholly owned U.S. subsidiary. He is a former government employee and participant in the local communist government leadership.

Whitmer gave Gotion $715 million in Michigan taxpayer cash and incentives.
