What I'm Reading

"The time has come, to talk of many things: Of shoes—and ships—and sealing-wax—of cabbages—and kings—and why the sea is boiling hot—and whether pigs have wings."  

By Rich Kozlovich 

The line above was from Alice in Wonderland about "futile arguments over trivial matters, and the absurdity of human behavior, hypocrisy, false sympathy, exploitation of the young, foolish and innocent", and it's appropriate for what passes for reality today.  Some of what I'm presenting here is from subscription sites and I won't be able to link those articles for you, so, you'll just have to take my word for what I'm offering... or not... as it pleases you.  

There's been a lot of talk about Trump's desire to acquire Greenland.  During WWII Denmark no longer existed as it was conquered by Nazi Germany and FDR seized  it.  Truman returned it to Denmark after the war.  That was a mistake.  Why is Greenland so important?  Greenland is a mineral rich landmass holding  "25 of the EU's 34 critical raw materials, enough to break China's near-total monopoly on the minerals inside every EV, wind turbine, and precision weapon."  That would impact China's intention to crush the American hegemony and become the world's leading power. 

Greenlanders don't really want to be a part of Denmark, and truthfully, I don't think they see themselves as Danes, and mostly because they're not.  But they also don't want to be part of the U.S. either.  However, since they only have a population of less than 60,000 people inhabiting a small portion of a land mass three times the size of Texas, and the U.S. is by agreement already committed to defending them, which allows military bases there, I wonder what it is they really want?  What is it do they think they can achieve?  At this point they're interested in independence, and certainly most Americas really get that, but it's an independence they can't defend, and they know it.  

So, ya just gotta see the humor in all of this.  Greenland doesn't want to become part of the U.S. and most Americans have no desire to turn Greenland into a state.  Certainly not any more than they want Puerto Rico or Washington D.C. to become states.  That's a mentality that includes talk about Alberta, Canada becoming independent and then an American state, and for the same reason.  The likelihood and fear of the Senate becoming a permanent leftist/Democrat/Marxist enclave.  

It appears ABC wants to double down on their lack of viewership by bringing back Rosie O’Donnell, who left America for Ireland because she hates Trump, but she just can't keep quiet over the outrages occurring here.  Outrages I tell you, and they're all because of Trump of course.  The deadly Texas flood.....Trump's fault.  She had a meltdown over Colbert's cancellation, and Molly Ringwald is thrilled.  He can run for President now, and she's all in on that. 

And now Rosie claims the man who killed those children in the Catholic church was ..... watch out now... here it comes.... a Republican MAGA person.  Claiming he was "a white guy, Republican, MAGA person… whaddya’ know… white supremacist.”  Well, he was white, and I'm shocked, apparently she knows the difference between a man and a woman, which shows even a blind coconut can find a monkey once in a while, but other than that, she didn't get a thing right including her diatribe against Trump.  

She claimed in the past Trump is fixated on her so much he lives rent free in her head....really?  Yet a week hardly goes by without some kind of ludicrous rant by Rosie regarding Trump.  He says she suffers from a “massive case of TDS", and there's not a sane person who would disagree.  What's the cause of TDS?  It's caused by the Sieve Brain Infection, where the brain hold facts like a sieve holds water. 

Here's something that I find interesting.  It appears mental disorders are infectious!  Really!  Take TDS, it's infected just about everyone in the Hollywood/entertainment industry.  Take this dipstick who plays Jack Reacher, the big tough guy wearing diamond ear rings while telling the world, in foul language, that Trump is guilty of raping a 13 year old girl.  Something Carville also tries to push, but as Larry Elder notes;

The problem isn't that Alan Ritchson and James Carville dislike Trump. The problem is that they treat the allegation against him as unquestionably true, but the allegations against Joe Biden and Bill Clinton as either unworthy of discussion or unquestionably false.

Well both Carville and Ritchson need to be sued by Trump over that, and the Sullivan decision won't protect them.   Also, as a result of the Jack Reacher movies and TV series there was a lot of talk about the difference about the portrayals of Reacher between Tom Cruise and Alan Ritchson because Ritchson's size reflects the image of Jack Reacher in the books.  I've seen both, and Cruise's Reacher is by far superior to Ritchson's, neither size or class withstanding

This kind of madness is ubiquitous and it isn't just about Trump; it's about Jews also.  Take for example Dune’ star Javier Bardem who blames Israel for the illegal migration from Morocco into Spanish Ceuta.  Yep, it was the Jews who did it alright, and that darned Trump most likely helped.  Is there a cure for that? Nah, it's my view he also suffers from one writer called the Sieve Brain Infection, with the brain holds facts like a sieve holds water.     

Democrat Socialist John Leguizamo whined European colonizers stole 500,000 tons of gold out of Latin America, "which is mathematically and historically impossible, as it represents more than double the total amount of gold ever mined in all of human history."  He's also bragged the money he earned by voicing a character in "Ice Age" bought him three homes.  Yep, I can see why he's a Democrat Socialist. Always sure, never right, and unendingly self serving, another example of the Sieve Brain Infection. 

Does Conan O'Brien have mental issues?  I have to believe he does since he found Leslie Jones calling Trump a piece of s..t healing.   He found that healing?  Really?  Whatever's wrong with him...., I have unreserved doubt that cured it. 

"The consensus in Hollywood is that AI will put a lot of actors, writers and other Hollywood professionals out of work.   The national consensus is that AI will also do some bad things."

As for the opinions of celebrities; they're going to go the way of their jobs:  Into oblivion.  As Jeff Bridges says: Soon I’ll be out of a gig, that's to AI, and will have to lease out his likeness.   I liked Lloyd Bridges, and both the Bridges boys, but once AI becomes the dominant force in entertainment, they'll create artificial stars that will become popular, and whatever leases modern "stars" may sign; overall, they're going to follow their careers into oblivion also.   

Not to mention I have no doubt they're going to resurrect likenesses, speech and characteristics of some of the great old Hollywood legends like Clark Gable, Spenser Tracy, Error Flynn and others provided there are no legal restrictions, and since so much time has gone by, I doubt there will be many.   I could even see John Wayne's family being willing participants in a very controlled licensing of his voice, image and traits. 

Finally, I come to the Warner Brothers/Paramount buyout merger.  Leftists of every ilk are infected with this mental disorder that permeates heir social bubble, and they're against it. Why?  Because that merger will end the Democrat control of the nation's news business.  If or when that ends I have to wonder: How often are we going to see Rosie interviewed afterward?  

Is Voter Fraud a Career Choice?

By Rich Kozlovich, Tags:  

 Yesterday I posted this piece, There is No Evidence of Voter Fraud! Really? saying: 

Voter fraud never happens or rarely happens, and there's no evidence of voter fraud.  Yeah, it you're blind, deaf, and living an a bathysphere hundreds of feet underwater.   Even their own voters don't believe that.  But that's the meme the left has touted for years.  It's the line they cling to in spite of all the evidence that's blatantly false, they continue to cling to that lie.  Why?  Well, let's explore this.   

I then listing links establishing solid evidence that clearly demonstrates, at least to those who aren't suffering from mental disorders such as "preconceptualism" and the "sieve mind infection", that voter fraud not only happens, it's ubiquitous and it's massive.   

Preconceptualism -  A mental state where one draws a conclusion without doing one iota of research and then refuses to see or hear anything that refutes that conclusion, ergo, since you never see or hear anything that refutes your conclusion; your conclusion must be right.   

Sieve Mind Infection - A mental disorder where no matter how many facts are presented to refute their views, none of the evidence is retained, washing through the mind like water through a sieve.

Both are chosen mental distortions of the left; both are evidence of the criminal mind mentality; "never give up the con!" 

Yesterday Monica Showalter posted this article, Arizona 2020: New revelations from 'the most secure election in U.S. history', saying:

Turns out a hacker got his hands on more than 600,000 Maricopa County voter registrations, including sensitive personal information on many.   Remember how CBS 'journalist' Scott Pelley breathlessly touted the 2020 election as 'the most secure in history'? Pelley, oh so seriously, touted the statement from White House Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency director Christopher Krebs who calling it just that and then the rest of the mainstream press repeated it in three-part harmony............Turns out it wasn't quite so 'secure' as Krebs claimed...... 

But the news is now out there that U.S. voter registrations are insecure and we know China has already stolen 200 million voter registrations, which it will obviously use for nefarious purposes. One only can hope that sunlight will help to expose more of these problems until its too late to solve the problems, and China, or any other enemy, looking at you, Mexico, will have all they want, which is to say permanent power over what's left of our country, through the miracle of hacking and election fraud.

From day one I contended Arizona's elections were blatantly fraudulent.  Here's my 

s time goes by voter fraud has become so wide spread it seems clear .... at least to me...... there are those whose job it is to corruptly secure elections via voter fraud.  Well, I just gotta ask; where do these people come from, where do they work, who do they work for, how much are they paid, and where do they go to apply for their jobs?  

Okay, I'm being a bit facetious here, but I would like for you to take some time and think about the answers to those questions.  If you see farther, deeper and wide enough you could find those answers just might be more startling than you think.  Voter fraud is ubiquitous, and none of this could have spontaneously occurred so universally without organization, power and money behind it.  Oh yeah, and it just might be "a vast left wing conspiracy".  Imagine that.   

Update, 8/8/26:  In Midst of Election, Arizona’s Democrat Governor Faces Pay-To-Play Corruption Probe - A sitting governor's alleged donor payoff is being investigated by an attorney general from her own party who has her own unresolved questions about outside money, and that investigator has promised to deliver a verdict just before voters decide whether to re-elect the person she's investigating........

Observations From the Back Row

By Rich Kozlovich

Powerline has once again been published, This Week in Pictures.  Since most of these pictures can't be reproduced here at P&D, I'm again posting a piece based on news I've been reading and those pictures, so let's start out with this.  

Fauci claimed he was science, now he claims he's silent, but his wife is using sign language to defend him.....the finger.  He and Michael Mann, who produced the infamous and now debunked global warming propaganda piece of junk science known as the "Hockey Stick Graph", have much in common.  They're purveyors of junk science, they're publicity hounds, and they both have egos that are beyond infinity!  

There's also a pattern to the thoughts they pushed.  First, the science is settled.  Then you must trust the science, followed by "sorry" you're fired for not following the science.  Then... shocker of shockers..... the "science" was recalled and silenced.  Unfortunately, as far as I can tell, no one got their jobs back or were compensated over this.  I mean, c'mon man, let's be reasonable that would cost big time.... Right?   How about this for reasonable?  They perpetrated fraud at taxpayers expense and fraud is a crime.   Tell, me, is pleading the fifth after receiving immunity anything like wearing a mask after being vaccinated?

Gary Varvel cartoon
The WNBA is in the midst of a crisis.  They don't know, or are able to define exactly what is a woman.  You know... the W in WNBA.  But don't worry, there are those from the NBA who've decided to help them through this crisis of definition.  

Former NBA player Enes Kanter says he can meet their stated qualifications. All he has to do is declare he's a woman, and he's qualified, along with another former NBA player Royce White.  I think the leadership at the WNBA really appreciates they're efforts to help them get past this identity crisis.  Waddaya think? 

What's the difference between radical Islam and moderate Islam? The radicals insist you follow Islam or be killed.  The moderates tell you to follow Islam or the radicals will kill you.   

Mamdani's grocery stores have a lot of issues to deal with before getting off the ground... and then going bankrupt.....  including demanding shopper I.D.'s to prevent non-New York residents from sneaking into New York and taking advantage of the low prices.  Does that include illegal aliens? If so... that's racist, xenophobia and worst of all.... that's downright conservative.  However, just because they don't have an I.D. not all is lost.  If they can't buy at Mamdani's grocery stores they can still go to a regular grocery store and spend the money the government is giving them and do so right after they've cast their votes. 

London liberals are shocked, shocked I tell you that they're hated and despised throughout Britain.  And they think it's just fine when an Oxford Club debater, who promotes Islam, says they had better watch out or, in spite of their Islamic religion of peace forbearance, they're actions might very well force Muslims to kill them.  All over western civilization immigrants are protesting and rioting in support of the countries they left.  Countries that would stone their daughters for being seen in public without a family member or totally covered so even their hair couldn't be shown, beat you to death if you ate bacon, embraced freedom of speech, or converted to another religion.  And they left why? 

Does anyone ever wonder why Hollywood stars seem to have so many trans kids?  Hollywood is facing an AI crisis, as it will do some really bad things.  AI will most likely put most actors, producers, directors and Hollywood trash out of business soon, and when that happens none of them will be interviewed and asked for their views on life any longer.  Oops, did I say bad things?  Nah, I'm just being a snot.

Here's how leftists express their policy views regarding children. They either want to abort them, transition them, groom them, or traffic them at the border.  And they seem to think conservatives are radical because they oppose all of this.  Imagine that. 

The Democrat party has shown an amazing ability for adaptability and transition.  In 1860 they were represented by the Confederate States of America attempting to destroy the United States, and now they're represented by the Muslim Brotherhood, with the goal of destroying the United States.

New York Times v. Sullivan is Unconstitutional

It's long overdue to revisit the New York Times v. Sullivan

By Rich Kozlovich

On August 5th August 5, 2026,  published this article, Why Justices Thomas and Gorsuch Want to Revisit saying:

The bottom line for Thomas, as he states in Berisha and re-ups in Dershowitz, is that the actual malice standard for public figures “bears ‘no relation to the text, history, or structure of the Constitution.’”  A truly unprecedented standard like actual malice arose from the Court seeing a problem where its predecessors did not.  For nearly 200 years, libel law and the freedom of the press co-existed peacefully, each in their own domain........ 

Justice Joseph Story, for example, wrote in 1833 that the idea that the First Amendment grants someone “an absolute right to speak, or write, or print” whatever they wished, without risk of consequence, was “a supposition too wild to be indulged by any rational man.” For if that was the case, “every citizen [would have] a right to destroy, at his pleasure, the reputation, the peace, the property, and even the personal safety of every other citizen.

The media has always been out of control with outrageous claims forever, which both William Randolph Hearst and Joseph Pulitzer excelled in.  They called it "yellow journalism" in those days, but their corrupt journalism is what laid the destructive and corrupt groundwork for the journalism we see today.  The media not only attack individuals they don't like, they defend the most indefensible characters and positions with with projection, red herring fallacies, lies of commission and lies of omission.  

But all that really became truly out of control with the SCOTUS decision in the New York Times vs. Sullivan.  That decision gave the media a carte blanche license to to smear public officials and public figures without consequence, and naturally as time has gone by that practice has gotten much worse..... at least until Trump and others sued media outlets, and started winning, as did Nick Sandmann when he sued "CNN, the Washington Post, and NBC Universal" and won to the tune of $275 million dollars.  

Now, according to Kash Patel the Atlantic has smeared him and he's filed a lawsuit, which has been going on since April.  The Atlantic is asking a judge to kick his suit to the curb!  Why?  The suit is meritless! Really? 

At least according to them it's meritless, and they stand four square behind their report.  Okay, they certainly have the right to stand behind the report, but as to whether or not it has merit is supposed to be decided at a trial ...... you know.... that's where the accused and the accusers face each other and make their case?  

Make no mistake, the Atlantic will argue the Sullivan defense, and in the real world if anyone other than the media was sued for defamation it would be settled or go to trial.  That's the way it is for everyone else in America, except for the media, and if it's good enough for the rest of America, it should be good enough for the media.

In 2023 Jack Hellner, one of my favorite writers, published this piece asking, Shouldn't most media outlets be sueable?, saying how the media has deliberately and knowingly lied about Russia and Trump, have deliberately "disregarded the truth" for years, have promoted "witch hunts", and supported people like Adam Schiff and Eric Swalwell spreading their lies saying:

They disenfranchised the voters that supported Trump by falsely calling him an illegitimate President. The interference in elections by the American media dwarfed anything Russia, China, and Iran have ever done..........

Jurists are coming to the conclusion Sullivan needs fixed as a "Defiant Federal Judge Calls Out the Media-Democrat Complex, saying: 

Judge Silberman had the audacity to notice that the mainstream media function as an adjunct of the Democratic Party.......... 

The New York Times v. Sullivan decision, just like the Chevron Deference, was without any Constitutional justification, and as "Judge Laurence Silberman notes, it allowed the court to:

 "supplant the traditional state common law of defamation with a rule, speciously claimed to be mandated by the First Amendment, that requires defamed public figures to prove actual malice — i.e., to prove that any libelous statements were intentionally false or made with reckless disregard for their falsity."

The rational view of former Justice Joseph Story '"that the First Amendment grants someone “an absolute right to speak, or write, or print” whatever they wished, without risk of consequence, was “a supposition too wild to be indulged by any rational man"', was not the view of the men who decided unanimously on the Sullivan case.  They were not rational men, they were political hacks; William J. Brennan Jr.,  Hugo L. Black,  Tom C. Clark  William O. Douglas  Arthur J. GoldbergJohn Marshall Harlan, and Earl Warren, who embraced the idea the federal judiciary had the right to legislate from the bench.

Under Sullivan it isn't just necessary to prove the media lied, the offended party must prove..... prove mind you...... the media's lies weren't just falsehoods that smeared their character irreparably, but it was done with "actual malice", an almost impossible hurtle to overcome no matter how egregiously obvious the slanders may have been.  

The unconstitutional Sullivan decision unleashed onto America a corp of corrupt media liars who worked to destroy the lives of people of whom they disapprove.  It's time to end this insanity and force the media to live by the same standards as the rest of America.  No one should be above the law!  After all, isn't that their unending meme while going after Trump, his allies and the J6 defendants, and did it with lies?

There is No Evidence of Voter Fraud! Really?

“I do not know if the people of the United States would vote for superior men if they ran for office, but there can be no doubt that such men do not run.”—Alexis de Tocqueville

By Rich Kozlovich

 

Voter fraud never happens or rarely happens, and there's no evidence of voter fraud.  Yeah, it you're blind, deaf, and living an a bathysphere hundreds of feet underwater.   Even their own voters don't believe that.  But that's the meme the left has touted for years.  It's the line they cling to in spite of all the evidence that's blatantly false, they continue to cling to that lie.  Why?  Well, let's explore this.   

First, I've been writing articles about voter fraud for years that demonstrating voter fraud is real, it's rampant and it's ubiquitous, or at the very least the evidence shows, quoting Shakespeare, "Something is rotten in the state of Denmark", and that rottenness creates a stench that needs a real a investigation by an Attorney General who has a mad dog in meat market mentality.   

Yesterday  Andrew Paquette, PhD wrote an outstanding article entitled, The Information Sieve Why Election Integrity requires more than evidence noting how no matter what evidence is presented the leftist mind is like a sieve, where all the evidence just passes through leaving nothing behind.  He notes: 

Democrats say “Where’s the evidence?” every time claims of election fraud are made. You could hand them evidence, literally in their hands, and it would disappear in a barrage of “But where’s the evidence?”, “This was adjudicated!”, “What’s your source?”, “This isn’t peer-reviewed!”, “It’s too late for this, find something new!” 

Never mind that all those questions are answerable. The point is that regardless of the type of objection given, the effect is the same: like water poured through a sieve, none of it is retained, as if it had never been in the sieve at all.

He goes on to say something that in my view is profound:

Criminals and their significant others can be like this. The criminal himself is motivated to deflect away from the evidence every time he is asked about it. His significant others and friends are motivated by their trust in the criminal to follow his lead, even if it sounds a little suspicious, out of an instinct to protect a member of their brood................. Then, their claims that “this isn’t evidence!” make sense. The same goes for the histrionic emotion expressed when they say it.

Why is that so profound?  Because it highlights the first rule of the criminal mind...."Never give up the con!"  If that's the first rule of the criminal mind, and that's the position they're taking, the conclusion is .... they're criminals. 

How many times have you seen one of these "world's dumbest criminal" shows where the criminal who is caught red handed insists on claiming he didn't do anything wrong.  In one of those shows a car thief stole a car owned and rigged by the police.  Why they remotely shut the car down and arrested him he kept insisting the car was his cousin's car and he had the right to drive it.  Ever after the police told him it was their care.  One was filmed committing a serious crime on film, but he insisted that wasn't him, it was someone who looked like him, and demanded his court appointed attorney argue that in court.  When he refused he told the attorney "you're not working for me, you're working for the man", and his family supported that view. 

This "sieve mind infection" isn't just about voter fraud, it involves every leftists theme they promote, including excusing black criminal activity that's out of control in America's major cities. 

Back to voter fraud, the Democrat's choosing voter fraud and corruption,  and their "sieve mind infection".  Here are articles I've been reading and storing, and the conclusion must be they're criminals and embracing the criminal mind attitude of....."never give up the con", which they knowingly support with lies, warped twisted reasoning and finger pointing.  The left excels at lies of commission, lies of omission, logical fallacies, and projection.   

Remember, as you read this, contemplate the meme, "there's no such thing as a conspiracy"!  And we know that because the left says it all the time.  Unless of course it's a vast right wing conspiracy as Hillary Clinton claimed in an attempt to excuse the behavior of her husband.  Well, how about this.  I say this is a "vast left wing conspiracy", involving Democrat politicians, the media, who hear no evil, see no evil, nor will they speak about evil... of Democrats, and even the courts are complicit.  After following the links below, you tell me if there is a "vast left wing conspiracy" at work here or not.  That brings us back to "why" they're fighting tooth and nail to prevent any kind of investigation into voter fraud or preventing voter fraud.  Because without voter fraud they can't get elected except in far left enclaves.

The Kyrie Eleison of the left is:  "It's not my fault, it's not my fault, it's not my fault, it's not my fault!  Amen!" So, in order to see a perfect example of leftist lies, distortion, twisted logic and finger pointing the left is so adept at, let's start our investigation with: 

New Jersey  

  • NJ Gov Is Lying About ‘Software Glitch’ That Led to Non-Citizen Voting -   “All 6,600 individuals indicated ‘Yes’ to wanting to register to vote and ‘No’ to being a US Citizen” DHS found that over 35,000 non-citizens were registered to vote in New Jersey.  Gov. Mikie Sherrill claimed that was due to a software ‘glitch’, that only 6,000 non-citizens were registered, only 400 had voted, and announced that she won’t release the names because of “privacy laws.”  Privacy laws don’t protect illegal actions or New Jersey’s own violations of voting regulations. Furthermore, the provider is claiming that it wasn’t a software error at all, but a category error.....It wasn't an error..... .Gov. Sherill is lying when she says it was just an innocent error. And she’s lying when she claims that the only reason she’s not releasing the names is privacy.........
  • NJ's Mikie Sherrill Had an Interesting Term to Describe the Illegal Alien Voters in Her State - Reality hit New Jersey, Gov. Mikie Sherrill: her party and its media allies claimed voter fraud rarely occurs, if at all. President Trump gave a speech on it in July, which the usual suspects dismissed as conspiratorial. And, as always, Trump was right. Over 6,000 illegal aliens were found on New Jersey’s voter rolls, with about 400 voting in past elections. That’s the official figure—it’s probably higher. .....
  • Jersey vote scandal a drop in the bucket -  Reality hits New Jersey, Gov. Mikie Sherrill: her party and its media allies claimed voter fraud rarely occurs, if at all. President Trump gave a speech on it in July, which the usual suspects dismissed as conspiratorial. And, as always, Trump was right. Over 6,000 illegal aliens were found on New Jersey’s voter rolls, with about 400 voting in past elections. That’s the official figure—it’s probably higher.  Now, Mikie is trying to blame Phil Murphy, her predecessor, for the oversight, but she now refuses to cooperate with federal officials regarding the release of more information on these people, calling them New Jersey citizens (via Politico):.........
  • GOP Sends Letter to NJ Governor: What the Hell Happened to Your Voter Rolls? - New Jersey Gov. Mikie Sherrill knows she’s in trouble: about 6,600 illegal aliens are listed on the state voter rolls. Around 400 have voted in past elections. We all suspect the actual numbers are higher on both counts, and that this has probably been going on for years. The Democrats and the media claimed this never happened not too long ago. Sherrill has tried to shift the blame, pointing the finger at Phil Murphy. But it doesn’t really matter, Mikie. You’re both Democrats......
  • UNHINGED: Far-Left Democrat Mikie Sherrill Smears Trump as Worse Than Vladimir Putin After State Registered 6,600 Noncitizens to Vote and Hundreds Cast Ballots - In a staggering display of far-left gaslighting and total lack of accountability, New Jersey Democrat Governor Mikie Sherrill is facing intense heat after serious voter roll irregularities, including thousands of non-citizens improperly registered to vote, came to light in the Garden State. Instead of taking responsibility for the catastrophic failure inside her state’s government, Sherrill did what Democrats always do when caught flat-footed: she lashed out at President Donald Trump and even dragged Russian President Vladimir Putin.  You cannot make this up.........
  • NJ Gov Doesn’t Want to Turn Over Names of Illegal Non-Citizen Voters - The Department of Homeland Security claimed that there were 35,000 non-citizens on the voting rolls in New Jersey. New Jersey claimed that it was only 6,000 and that it was an ‘accident’ due to a ‘glitch’ and that only 400 of them had voted, and then promised to protect the illegal voters. Then Gov. Mikie Sherrill signaled that she would try to protect the illegal voters.......
  • The 400 Noncitizens Who Voted in New Jersey Face Prosecution and Deportation - The 400 noncitizens who voted illegally in New Jersey are now facing prosecution, denaturalization and deportation. “They are subject to prosecution and removal from the United States,” Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon told conservative podcaster Benny Johnson, Wednesday. Dhillon pointed out that not all of these voters are illegal aliens—some are Green Card holders—but all are ineligible to vote. “People need to see the consequences of voting when you’re not allowed to,” she explained......
  • NJ Gov Vows to Protect Non-Citizens Who Illegally Voted -  Accidents will happen. Who hasn’t experienced random accidents like spilling soda, bumping your knee or adding 6,000 non-citizens to the state voter rolls in a state controlled by the party that is most likely to benefit from non-citizens voting in elections. Just random accidental stuff.  .............Gov. Mikie Sherrill announced Tuesday, with “fewer than 400” of them casting ballots in various elections since 2023.   So around 400 illegally voted in elections which they had no right to do. If you get sent a $500,000 check you know is a bank error, and you cash it and spend it, you’ve committed a crime. So have these folks........
  • 'Unacceptable': Governor admits THOUSANDS of noncitizens registered to vote - The governor of New Jersey has admitted that thousands and thousands of noncitizens were registered to vote in her state, and many of them actually voted, illegally, in a U.S. election, but it's all the fault of a software error. A report at Politico said Gov. Mikie Sherrill said more than 6,000 people who are not U.S. citizens were added to her state's voter rolls. She claimed it was minor because "fewer than 400" actually voted......
  •   6,600 Noncitizens Found On New Jersey Voter Rolls As Democrats Fight Against Voter ID - The things Democrats insist never happen are happening again: Noncitizens are getting onto the voter rolls and voting — and President Donald Trump is being proven right again about insecure elections and the urgent need to pass the SAVE America Act......

Trump 

  • Trump’s Obsession With Election Integrity Will Save the Republic - Happy Monday, dear Kruiser Morning Briefing friends. Reirkrebbdo was having surprising luck getting people to try Full Contact Lederhosen YAHTZEE! Most of the "Top 'O the Briefing" for Friday morning had already been written last Thursday night by the time President Donald Trump was finished with his speech, which is why I didn't comment on it. Regulars here in Briefingland know that I don't think that we can talk about election integrity too much, especially in this most critical election year. .....
  •  President Trump Drops The Receipts On Election Fraud| And no, you weren’t imagining it: the casino was rigged. In his speech earlier this month, President Trump pointed straight at large numbers of non-citizens on voter rolls, voting machines subject to manipulation, China’s acquisition and exploitation of voter data, and blue-state officials who allegedly buried or covered up these vulnerabilities.....
  •  Save Our Election to SAVE America - Last Thursday night, President Trump unveiled a massive trove of evidence showing that America’s election systems are vulnerable to fraud. This vulnerability is a risk to the very foundations of our Republic, and elected officials at both the state and federal levels need to take action right now........
  •  America’s election problem is bigger than the ballot box - President Trump is right to recognize the collapse of confidence surrounding American elections. It’s time to make amends.  In July, the U.S. House of Representatives brought the long-running debate over election integrity back to the center of national politics by advancing the SAVE America Act’s election provisions through a massive defense bill.  The move shows that Donald Trump and his allies see the issue as a real governing priority.  The legislation would require voters to prove American citizenship when registering to vote and present photo identification when casting a ballot.  The principle behind it is simple: America’s elections should be decided by American citizens............
  • The Trump administration has filed 31 lawsuits seeking states' voter data. Here's where they stand.  President Trump's administration has mounted efforts in nearly all 50 states to obtain their complete voter rolls containing sensitive information about registered voters in their states. The Justice Department has argued that the information is needed to ensure states are complying with two federal voting laws, the Help America Vote Act and the National Voter Registration Act, which aim to ensure states have programs in place for maintaining accurate voter rolls........

Judiciary 

  •  Once Again, Leftist Judges Keep the Ballot Box Wide Open for Cheaters - Two Biden-appointed judges just told America that cleaning up elections is too much work. On Saturday the First Circuit Court of Appeals, by a 2-1 vote, refused to let President Trump enforce an executive order that would require proof of citizenship and tighten mail-in ballot rules before the November midterms. The door stays open. The cheaters get a free pass. And the left pretends this is about “democracy.”.......
  •  (Editor's Note: One honest juristRKNo re-do! Judge prevents Dems from manipulating primary ballots - Party wanted to give thousands of voters a second chance to fill out their vote.  Democrats and other leftists long have advocated, with frequent success, for a voting month, or voting week, instead of an election day as specified in the U.S. Constitution. They also love mail ballots, absentee ballots and counting ballots that arrive after the election period has closed.  And that scheme now has bitten them, in a dispute in Wisconsin.

Voter Fraud is Ubiquitous

This and That on Voter Integrity 

  • The Kind of People Who Run for Government OfficWhat de Tocqueville said here seems to be a rather obvious truism. All we need to do is look at the current Congress—both parties—and most state and even local governments, to realize that “superior men” do not dominate any sector of America’s governmental structure. It’s not that all the people serving in government are Adolf Hitler reincarnated, degenerate, evil people, not even all Democrats. Not every Democrat always does “evil” things; they just believe evil things. Now, I suppose, one could define such a person as “evil,” and I wouldn’t argue the point. But there are some “decent” Democrats who don’t eat (or kill) babies. They just believe other people have the right to do so. That’s bad enough, obviously.  I’m trying to be as nice as I can here, folks..........

Nixonmaxxing Is a Farce

By Rich Kozlovich

I'm going to wander a bit afield in the article, but I want to start by referencing this article appearing at Townhall.com, Richard Nixon Is Making a Startling Comeback. Here's Why.  It's a VIP article so I can't show any more than this:

 Former disgraced President Richard Nixon is making his way back into headlines, thanks to a coordinated effort by the Nixon Foundation, which has turned archival videos of the Republican president into short-form social media content, sparking a frenzy among young conservatives who describe their admiration for Nixon as “Nixonmaxxing.” 

The root of this newfound admiration goes beyond a well-coordinated campaign by his foundation. For some, it’s a way to usher in a new wave of conservatism, one that embraces Nixon’s combative style, his “Silent Majority” coalition, and his image as a self-made man taken down by a political establishment.

But no matter what the rest of the article says, Nixon was a disaster as a President, as I demonstrated why in this article.   It's true the liberal establishment went after Nixon with a passion, and yet he did more to promote their regulatory schemes and was one of the most profligate Presidents ever.   Is there anything leftist love more than massive and intrusive regulations and spending?  No!  So why did they hate him? 

He was part of the House Committee on Un-American Activities that went after Alger Hiss, campaigning against communist infiltration into the federal government.  That wasn't just a "red scare", it was a legitimate scare, and we know that for sure since the release of the VENONA intercepts and released archival evidence from the Soviet Union.  Which tells you a lot about his "liberal" attackers.  They weren't liberals, they were all closet communists, and now they're surging openly.  

 "Red Scare"? Actually The Communist Resurgence In The Democratic Party Is Very Real - If you are paying any attention, you will have noticed by now that all of the energy in the Democratic Party at the moment comes from the faction calling itself the Democratic Socialists of America.......The DSA calls itself the "Democratic" Socialists, but is there anything democratic about the form of government they are advocating?

These are the intellectual and philosophical progeny of those closet communists from decades ago, and their goal was then and is now the destruction of the American culture, the American economy, and the American Constitution.   

But back to Nixon.  Most of the problems we're facing today can be traced back to Richard Nixon and Jimmy Carter, all of which were truly exacerbated by Obama and Joe Biden.   

The Fauci Conundrum

 By Rich Kozlovich 

The Issues and Insight web site put out a list of articles they've been reading asking this question: "Is Anthony Fauci, And His Media Pals, In Even Bigger Trouble Now?"  

Rand Paul has introduces a resolution ro hold Fauci in contempt Of Congress:

Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) told Dr. Anthony Fauci last week exactly what would happen if he stonewalled Congress. Fauci ignored him. Now Paul is delivering on that promise, and conservatives who have waited years for this moment have every reason to celebrate.

And the lies keep piling up, or perhaps I should say keep "catching" up to the Fauci cabal?  After years of debate, former COVID response coordinator acknowledges pandemic source ‘probably a lab leak’ -

Former Biden White House COVID-19 Response Coordinator Dr. Ashish Jha revealed in a Sunday interview on CNN that he believes COVID-19 was likely caused by a lab leak. During the interview with CNN's Dana Bash, she highlighted how Jha had retweeted commentator Jamie Metzl’s lengthy social media post saying he believed COVID-19 originated from a lab leak at the Wuhan Institute of Virology.

Five Lessons Learned From the Fauci Fiasco - Former Biden White House COVID-19 Response Coordinator Dr. Ashish Jha revealed in a Sunday interview on CNN that he believes COVID-19 was likely caused by a lab leak. During the interview with CNN's Dana Bash, she highlighted how Jha had retweeted commentator Jamie Metzl’s lengthy social media post saying he believed COVID-19 originated from a lab leak at the Wuhan Institute of Virology.

Make no mistake, if it wasn't for the corruption of the Pravda media none of this could have taken place.  If they'd done the job journalists are supposed to do they'd have reported the data was fraudulent, these shots weren't real vaccines, that these compounds were killing people, that this was a ..... watch out now.... here it comes..... a vast left wing conspiracy to steal the 2020 fraudulent election of Joe Biden.     

J.B. Shurk says journalists involved were dumb, arrogant liars:

There is a frustrating contradiction when it comes to the way public information is assessed for factual truth.  For decades, prominent news organizations have steadily lost credibility.  Fewer Americans than ever believe what The New York Times, CNN, NPR, or even the AP publishes as the “objective” record of current events.  At the same time, however, alternative, competing descriptions of current events are almost entirely ignored.  No matter how compelling or factually sourced a story might be, it is largely disregarded until mainstream corporate news institutions are willing to recognize its validity.

The only thing that will fix these myrmidons of the left is if they are driven out of business because no one cares what they think or care.  There's a reason Americans’ confidence in TV News and newspapers is in the toilet.  They've proven over and over again nothing they're saying is trustworthy as they've been caught in lies so often, and some of the lies were blatantly obvious to the most casual observer.  Lies that were presented with unbelievable arrogance, a clear demonstration of their contempt for the public. 

Update:  Fauci’s Greatest Lie Should Land Him in the Electric Chair – Jay Bhattacharya and The Gateway Pundit Were Right All Along - “While publicly posturing as a champion of science, he was privately directing his staff to destroy federal records.  This is a blatant violation, a betrayal of the public trust, and further proof that Fauci engaged in a cover-up from the very beginning of the pandemic. I’m going to ask him about this when he goes under oath this Wednesday.”

Fauci, and My Cartoon Roundup

By Rich Kozlovich 

 "The time has come, to talk of many things: Of shoes—and ships—and sealing-wax—of cabbages—and kings—and why the sea is boiling hot—and whether pigs have wings." 

The line above was from Alice in Wonderland about "futile arguments over trivial matters, and the absurdity of human behavior, hypocrisy, false sympathy, exploitation of the young, foolish and innocent", and it's appropriate for what passes for reality today.

Fauci the Foul

By Rich Kozlovich Links: Covid, Coronavirus

 Joseph Ford Cotto published this article over at American Thinker, Anthony Fauci Hurt America's Children ... and Her Future saying;

The damage the once-vaunted Fauci did to society's most vulnerable was incalculable. Anthony Fauci spent nearly four decades running the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. In that time, he became the face of public health in America. Yet the record now shows he inflicted lasting harm on the very people he claimed to serve, especially the young. His private writings and public actions reveal a pattern of deception that paved the way for lockdowns, school closures, and social isolation whose scars will stretch across generations.

He may have spent decades in that job, but a science friend who was involved with that agency said he wasn't like or respected.  It's clear he was just another political hack feeding at the government trough. 

From the beginning I took a stand against mandatory vaccinations, saying that should be a personal choice.  I opposed masking, social distancing, and lock downs, and took a lot of heat.   So, I have to say,  I’m finding all these exposures more than satisfying.

From the beginning I took the stand this wasn’t about science or public health, it was about politics, and Fauci was a fraudulent myrmidon of the left.   Then it was exposed these shots weren’t real vaccinations but gene altering compounds that didn't meet the definition for a vaccine.  Previous to this the hard and fast rule for a compound to be declared a vaccine it had to do two things.  Immunize and prevent transmission, and they did neither, so they changed the definition, which clearly showed they absolutely knew these shots were not vaccines.   

 It was also clear these gene altering compounds were causing serious health issues, .  I stated this was our Thalidomide era, which caused a worldwide panic, but that only affected fifteen thousand children.  This was already far, far worse, and I stated these compounds were going to impact the world’s health negatively for decades to come, and that’s now being recognized.

I lost science friends who were past allies in the battle against junk science over my positions. So I think this question needs answering: If an autodidact bugman could see this so clearly, and so early, how is it possible so many prominent, powerful, highly educated people couldn’t? Or should I say wouldn’t?   So, I have to say I’m finding all these exposures more than satisfying.

It’s my view this whole scheme by Fauci and his cabal was not only fraud, which is a crime, it was a crime against humanity, or at the very least, depraved indifference, and someone needs to go to jail over this, and big time. 

Dr. Anthony Fauci and 111 counts of contempt of Congress - In an ideal world, a sentencing judge would look at the 2 million COVID deaths worldwide, and give him 111 consecutive one-year sentences........ Typical lunatics from the left-wing fringe have given up on religious faith...... and they’re eager to believe anything “scientific,” as a sorry substitute.  Some of them might have gotten a COVID shot for the free Happy Meal.  Then they got a few booster shots. Some of them got 12 boosters. I’m not exaggerating.......

Now they’re hearing about myocarditis, nervous system disorders, aortic aneurisms, and other long-term side effects, and they’re starting to get worried. Because COVID lasted for a year, but those elevated risks will be with them for the rest of their miserable lives.......

In Jim Davis' article, Dr. Anthony Fauci and 111 counts of contempt of Congresshe notes that:

In an ideal world, a sentencing judge would look at the 2 million COVID deaths worldwide, and give him 111 consecutive one-year sentences.

And NO, Fauci isn't just a distraction over what we've lost.  Every issue has a focal point that focuses our attention on an issue and the expanded details surrounding that issue,  Fauci is that focal point expanding the truth as to what happened, and that's what makes it clear as to what we've lost.  

On July 31, 2026 I published this article, Fauci the Fabricator, which Blogger deleted claiming it didn't meet their community standards, which I've protested, and reposted at Nuf Ced.  What are their community standards?  They won't say, which is an open invitation for abuse and censorship.  However, for me it was articles I wrote or posted that exposed the COVID fraud lies, and anything about Islam that was negative, irrespective of the sourcing or the truth, and this one will meet the same fate I'm sure.   

Here are the updates I posted to that article and more:

  1.  Anthony Fauci, Our Own Wizard of Oz - We’ve been preparing all wrong for pandemics by imagining bureaucratic wizards will manage them best.....
  2.  Fauci’s Worst Nightmare Is Fauci! -| Do a lot of grown men keep diaries? Fauci’s own narcissism came back to haunt him.......
  3.  Another Fauci Fraud: Unearthed Clip Busts Fauci with Blatantly Inaccurate AIDS Claims  Thursday on “The Alex Marlow Show,” Breitbart Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow talked about Fauci.  Marlow said, “He’s acting as though children could get it through the air and touch. That’s pandering to left-wing political people.”
  4. Dr. Birx Admits Blue States Over-closed to Send Political Signal in Election Year - Marlow said about comments from Deborah Birx: “She’s saying that Democrat-led states, blue states over-closed during the pandemic in 2020 in order to send a political signal.”
  5. Josh Hawley: ‘Anthony Fauci Had No Right to Invoke the Fifth Amendment After Receiving Immunity’ (VIDEO) - Anthony Fauci’s congressional testimony this week was such an insult to the entire country. It was just stunning to see him repeatedly invoke the Fifth Amendment and refuse to answer every single question posed to him.
  6. The Fifth Man - Fauci claims the rights he denied everyone else....... People were fired from their jobs for refusing untested vaccines. Fauci closed schools, shut down businesses, and barred people from visiting their dying relatives. As Sen. Bernie Moreno recalled, a mother was arrested for watching a football game outside. The Ohio Republican surely spoke for many when he told Fauci “who the f..k do you think you were for doing that?”... 
  7. The Rise and Fall of Anthony Fauci - Being pathetic is no protection against being malevolent.   I am thinking of sending Anthony Fauci a copy of Herodotus’ HistoriesAfter his humiliating performance before the Senate last week, Dr. Fauci might find the story of Solon’s visit to the Lydian king Croesus instructive. Croesus displays his great wealth to the Athenian lawgiver and asks, “Who is the happiest man you have ever seen?” Croesus expects Solon to name him. Instead, Solon says that no one can be judged truly happy while still living because fate can reverse one’s fortune in an instant..............Social distancing was a hoax, masks were a joke, lockdowns were worthless, mRNA jabs were dangerous ,Case fatality rate was low, Ivermectin worked, Hydroxychloroquine also worked, Remdesivir was a killer, COVID came from the Wuhan lab and Fauci funded it........
  8. Louisiana AG Liz Murrill Says State Will Launch Investigation into Fauci - Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill (R) announced on Saturday that Louisiana will launch an investigation into former National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) chief Anthony Fauci regarding “whether he committed any other offenses” that can be pursued.......
  9. Knoxville Mayor Shares Chilling 2020 Talk When Deborah Birx Admitted the Truth Didn’t Matter When It Came to the Science -  Public officials faced pressure from “experts” to upend the lives of everyday Americans in the name of combating COVID. But were these measures really justifiable?  Republican Mayor of Knox County, Tennessee, Glenn Jacobs — popularly known for his work with World Wrestling Entertainment as Kane — recalled an exchange with a certain doctor who gave no indication that lockdown measures were proven to be effective......... On Saturday, Jacobs remembered an exchange he had with Birx that proved anti-COVID policies were more of a stunt than a safety measure.
  10. 'This stinks of a cover-up': Biden's Fauci pardon suggests someone suspected criminal activity -Democrats and legacy media 'committed to throttling discussion of the most consequential event in recent history'.  There's no mystery in why Dr. Anthony Fauci strove to silence discussion about the origins of COVID-19 – he was in full CYA mode because the agency he led had helped fund the Wuhan lab that apparently created the deadly virus. It also seems clear that others in the government and many powerful business interests enabled this deception for fear that fingering China rather than a rabid bat might lead Americans to demand some accountability......This stinks of a cover-up. It raises the question: why the start date six years before the pandemic erupted? It suggests that Biden or someone in his administration knew or at least suspected that Fauci may have engaged in criminal activity connected to the emergence of the virus......

Justice American Style

 By Rich Kozlovich

The justice system in America is in serious need of fixing.  Radical prosecutors and judges are destroying the very concept of justice by their actions.  One criminal thug committed a murder in less that two hours of being released on bail from other crimes.

One judge decided parents who starved their baby to death didn't deserve jail time.  The New Mexico Supreme Court tosses bodycam confession in newborn hiding case.  The deranged killer of a six year old child is being released.... again!

 Exantus broke into the Tipton family’s Versailles home on December 7, 2015, stabbed Logan Tipton to death as he slept and also attacked Dean and Logan’s sisters. He did not know the family prior to the attack.

He was found "not guilty by reason of insanity" for the murder, but found him "guilty but mentally ill on assault charges against the other family members", and was sentenced to 20 years.  Does that really make any sense?  And now after only serving half his term, he's being released on parole because he was a good little boy in prison. 

In Vermont a seventeen year old "juvenile" 25 years go murdered a married couple, two Dartmouth college professors, is now getting a shot ar parole because the Supreme Court ruled life sentences for juveniles is unconstitutional.

convicted  transgender "strangled an eleven month old baby, and was only sentenced to 55 years.  This ... at least in my view... bodes well the need to ask and answer a few questions:

  1. What kind of monster murders an eleven month old baby?
  2. What kind of judge would only sentence him to 55 years?
  3. What kind of bleeding heart nitwits paroled this monster who continues to demonstrate he's mentally deranged insisting he's really a woman and is "demanding taxpayer-funded “gender-affirming” surgery", and an Obama judge agreed. 

He also sued President Trump for hurtful transgender speech.  Amazing, let's see if I understand this correctly. A man who could coldly strangle an eleven month old baby child to death has feelings?  Did I get that right?   

There's no end to the insanity.  One serial rapist who is serving 167 years in prison has determined he's transsexual and is demanding the state pay for surgeries to confirm to his new identity, and that be sent to a woman's prison.  Will that happen?  I'm betting it will. 

Free speech?  Well, that depends if you say something one of the protected classes finds offensive.  Shiloh Hendrix confronted a black boy who was obviously attempting to steal from her calling him a nigger, and when a bystander confronted her she told him what he could do with himself, that landed her two disorderly conduct charges from the city prosecutor, and was sentenced to "200 hours of community service and fined $1,000."

She was acquitted of one — the one regarding her interaction with the 8-year-old — and convicted of the other, which involved Omar, the videographer. Hendrix never put her hands on anyone, other than to hold her own child, and the only time she engaged another person was to retrieve her belongings and to tell a bystander to back off. Her only offense otherwise was to use a slur, which was, admittedly, the worst she could possibly use............

Public and private property is torched and looted in major cities if a drug addict ends up dead while resisting arrest — so long as he’s black. But a white woman who uses a slur after having her things stolen is nearly locked up for three months. That’s the Democrat version of American justice.

The guy who filmed her was an immigrant Somali bystander named Omar who told "Hendrix that her speech was “hate speech” and that he would post the video for the world to see."  Interesting moral code Omar has.  Hate speech is criminal, but rape is okay.  

Omar was charged in 2022 for allegedly raping and sexually assaulting a 16-year-old girl. The charges against him were later dismissed “in the interest of justice.

Let me see if I understand that.  In the "interest of justice" rape is fine, but telling someone off in a colorful term is such a criminal act it demands some form of punishment?  Did I get that right?  Well, yes, you see it appears the Judge this case ", Christa Daily, has a history of granting outrageous plea deals and letting convicted sex offenders off with light punishments and little to no jail time."

It also appears Hendrix is appealing this ruling, because whether you approve of her conduct or not is immaterial, that's a red herring fallacy.  The issue is freed speech. The fact is this standard of "justice" means Shiloh Hendrix won’t be the last victim of the left's efforts to criminalize speech.

A federal judge has ordered ICE to release a man with a notorious past, that I think can only be called a terrorist past, throwing Molotov Cocktails at the homes of Israeli solders in 1989, convicted of weapons violations 1995 and "lying on his immigration paperwork.".  For reasons I find mind boggling he's been living here for 33 years, and is considered a respected leader in his Muslim community.  CAIR's position?

 “No one should be punished for their faith, advocacy, or identity. We urge ICE to immediately comply with the judge’s order, reunite Mr. Sarsour with his loved ones, and end the disturbing pattern of targeting Muslim, Palestinian, and other community members for detention and intimidation,” Awad said. “This case is a reminder that due process, human dignity, and constitutional rights must never be optional.”

I think that's really profound.. .don't you?  Especially so since in Muslim controlled nations inequality before the law is part and parcel of The Mohammunist Manifesto.  

Update:   

  1. Biden Parole Migrant Accused of Raping 2 Women in Salt Lake City, Utah - An illegal alien, paroled into the United States by the Biden administration, is now accused of raping two women in Salt Lake City, Utah.   Moise Sainteran, an illegal alien from Haiti, has been arrested by the Salt Lake City Police Department and charged with two counts of rape, forcible sexual abuse, object rape, aggravated sexual assault, and forcible sodomy.......
