The above is the text of Trump’s order on voting in Federal elections.

My reading of it shows simple requirements for casting a ballot… and, as usual, the Left has gone batshit crazy about it!

In Florida, for an ID. Or Driver License, there is a list of document to prove you are a Florida resident: birth certificate, address verification such as utility bill, Social Security verification etc.

Similar to Dems objecting to ridding us of Government corruption and waste, it would seem that they want illegal non-citizens to vote.

Is there any other reason?

No.

Plus the dead and the never-lived will vote Democrat too.

There is more to this Signal snafu than it appears. What I understand happened is that a key contact in the phones address book was modified by someone to replace the legitimate contact’s phone number with Goldbergs phone number, the contact name remained the same.

Signal uses the phones (android and iPhone) common contact list. Signal uses a an encrypted scheme to look at all phone numbers in the phones contact list and see if the number is used by Signal, ie a Signal user. Signal does not maintain a separate contact list.

So someone got into Waltz’s phone and edited one key contact to replace the contact’s phone number with Goldbergs. Trap set. Waltz would never know.

Regarding the use of Signal to protect classified information, a recent news article pointed out that regardless of how secure the transmitted signals between phones were due to encryption that no enemies could possibly break, the messages were still sitting in unencrypted form on the senders’ and receivers’ phones.

So this is my question. We see constant claims that our phones could be hacked and anything on them is subject to compromised, not to mention what the phones are telling the rest of the world about us: when we’re sleeping, when we’re awake, whether we’ve been bad or good, and who knows what else.

Are all those claims just Internet hyperbole from people talking out their ROs to make the rest of us think they’re smarter than they actually are? And I’m not referring to some basement dweller or even a criminal gang that wants to use our confidential passwords, etc. to clean out our bank accounts. There have been countless historical examples of supposedly secure methods of communication turning out to being vulnerable to methods that were far less powerful and sophisticated than what’s available now.
Our phones are constantly transmitting information; how do we know what that information is limited to?

And then yes, there is the issue of the security of the physical phones themselves. Does anyone handcuff them to their wrists like the man who never was in operation MINCEMEAT? But that’s another question.

Throughout the interview, the national security adviser suggested Goldberg’s number was labeled under a different name in his contact list, which resulted in the journalist being added to the message chain.

Rightly or wrongly I trust Apple’s face recognition and hack resistance.

I scanned The Hill, albeit briefly, but I couldn't find anything specific to the above statement. I believe you, I just couldn't find it.

Did someone get into his phone, or did he make a mistake typing or editing contact info?

Or did the dog eat his homework?

That's not fair to some of the honest hardworking fast food workers in this country.

More accurately would be "There is a truckstop in this country missing one of its Lot Lizards."

I looked and cannot find it. Please next time copy the URL and link it to your post, it would make it a lot easier for the rest of us to have verified info.

Does anyone besides me see a connection to this Executive Order about election integrity and the mandatory date (May 7, 2025) for implementation of REAL ID Act.

Trump’s order sets a 30-day date (April 25, 2025) for compliance, which just happens to be the start date of primary season in some States for local elections.

It’s just shear coincidence that the snap-call Canadian Election is days after this date.

A Third Of All DC District Judges Were Not Born In United States

Of all the judges in the U.S. all five foreign-born judges of the D.C. court managed to get their fingerprints on controversial Trump cases.

https://thefederalist.com/2025...rn-in-united-states/

The United States District Court for the District of Columbia, the source of many of the cases interfering with President Donald Trump’s authority, has 15 judges, (Counting Chief Judge James Boasberg) and five of them were born outside the United States.

While country of origin doesn’t come up in most jobs, it is worth asking if judges with ties to foreign nations and cultures are the right ones to make decisions affecting the U.S. military or immigration.

The concept of foreign-born judges is a newer phenomenon in this district. In addition to the 15 main judges, the D.C. District has 10 older, senior judges who still occasionally hear cases in the district. This group, nominated as far back as Ronald Reagan the 1980s, were all born in the U.S.

But starting in 2014, former President Barack Obama appointed Judge Tanya Sue Chutkan, born in Kingston, Jamaica. She was in the U.S. by 1979, attending George Washington University. Before sitting on federal court, she had no experience as a judge. Chutkan is overseeing the legal challenge to DOGE’s work to slash excess government spending.

Obama also appointed Judge Amit P. Mehta to the D.C. court. Mehta also had no previous experience as a judge. Mehta was born in Patan, Gujarat, India. He and his parents came to the U.S. when he was a baby, age one. He was raised in Maryland. Mehta will oversee four January 6 civil cases that aim to blame Trump for injuries and squeeze money, court time, and political embarrassment out of him.

The other three foreign born judges were nominated by former President Joe Biden.

Judge Ana Cecilia Reyes was nominated in 2021, also with no prior experience as a judge. She was born in Montevideo, Uruguay and moved to Spain, and while still a child, moved to Louisville, Kentucky, where she grew up. She is the first openly LGBT Latina to be appointed to this court. Reyes presided over an objection to Trump’s executive order declaring “gender dysphoria” as “inconsistent” with the “high standards for troop readiness,” as The Federalist’s Shawn Fleetwood reported. Reyes blocked Trump’s order with a preliminary injunction.

The first Muslim and Arab American in the D.C. district court, Judge Amir Hatem Mahdy Ali was born and raised in Canada to Egyptian parents. According to his Questionnaire for Judicial Nominees, Ali was not required to register for the U.S. Selective Service. That is because he was not a citizen until 2019. He graduated from the University of Waterloo in Ontario, Canada with a software engineering degree in 2008 and then attended Harvard Law School in the U.S., graduating with a law degree in 2011. He worked as a volunteer on Biden’s 2020 transition team and for a phone bank in support of Biden’s presidential campaign. He worked for some nonprofits but never served as a judge until Biden appointed him in 2024. Amir has written extensively and negatively about Trump’s so-called “Travel ban,” a 2017 Executive Order which restricted travel to the U.S. from seven predominantly Muslim countries for 90 days.

In his writing, he said, “prejudice and intolerance” were “the very hallmark of [Trump’s] campaign against Muslims.”

Before he was a judge, Ali spoke at the National Press Foundation and gave tips to reporters about how to cover the courts.

When confirmed, Amir was a member of the Capital Area Muslim Bar Association; Muslim American Judicial Advisory Council; National Arab American Bar Association; National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers; National Police Accountability Project; and the Native American Bar Association of D.C., among others.

Ali single handedly restored $2 billion in USAID spending to foreign nonprofit contractors that the Trump Administration had paused for 90 days, in a stunning overreach of authority last month.

The newest judge on the D.C. District Court is also foreign born.

Before slinking out of office, Biden and his handlers got Judge Sparkle Sooknanan confirmed. She was sworn in Jan. 2, 2025. Born in the dual-island nation Trinidad and Tobago in 1983, she left her home country at age 16 to pursue college and graduated from Brooklyn Law School in 2010.

She was a law clerk for Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor, and during the Biden Administration she was the principal deputy assistant attorney general in the Civil Rights Division for the Department of Justice before Biden tapped her for her first ever judge gig in the D.C. Court, according to her Questionnaire for Judicial Nominees.

Last week, Sooknanan dutifully did her part to slow Trump’s agenda, ordering the reinstatement of Democrat Susan Grundmann to the Federal Labor Relations Authority, a move that keeps the board in a Democrat majority.

None of these cases have gone in front of conservative judges in conservative states, say in Missouri or South Dakota. They all happened to land in the laps of judges that have spoken out or ruled against Trump or his policies in the past.

Out of all the judges in the nation, all five foreign-born judges of the D.C. District court managed to get their fingerprints on a controversial Trump case.



The United States is in the midst of a soft coup. Not the violent kind that takes out a nation’s leader, but one orchestrated by judicial actions that choke off executive power before our eyes.

We have seen other obvious, corrupt schemes in plain sight before. The Biden basement presidential campaign of 2019; the “insurrection” that wasn’t; the mask and vaccine mandates; the Biden is mentally competent story; the “flawless” Afghan withdrawal; the “secure” borders; and the incompetent candidate swap to Kamala Harris, made Americans realize the best chance we have to stop corruption is to vote it out.

The public did its part by voting in a clear mandate for Trump’s agenda. But corruption is still visible, though court decisions by unelected activist judges.

The only remedy now is for the Supreme Court to step in and this time, get its hands dirty, deliberate, and make real decisions based on the Constitution.

It is called "Transform this country." we all know where that came from.

That's rich coming from a muslim.

Deport his islamic ass back to Canada.

I don't know exactly what happened, but in general, this kind of thing should never happen. They were not discussing, say, some political strategy. They were talking about a raid with lives at stake.

I have Signal on my phone, for cripes sake, along with a million others. It is absurd to think they do not have a secure way to talk.

Pretty sure he became a US citizen in 2019.

Just as an FYI regarding the "app" Signal, it's a multi-platform app, you can run it on a PC, too. You have to set it up through your phone first, but then you can set up chats and groups through the desktop interface as well.

People with a triple-digit IQ should know by now that all the left does is lie.
