Fleetwood: Media tacitly admit mail-in balloting is not as secure and reliable as they claim

BY: SHAWN FLEETWOOD | The Federalist Since the chaotic 2020 election and coincident expansion of mail-in balloting, America’s corrupt media have gone full throttle to convince the country that this unsupervised system is 1,000 percent safe and never produces fraud. The same consensus also accuses Americans concerned about the risks associated with mass mail-in voting of being conspiracy theorists and so-called “election deniers.” Within the past week, however, several legacy publications have released stories tacitly admitting that the process is not as secure or reliable as they regularly claim.

Trump’s abortion stance prompts pushback from Lindsey Graham, others rally behind former president

By Elizabeth Elkind , Julia Johnson  | FOX News A top Republican senator and Trump-endorser is among those criticizing the former president over his Monday announcement on abortion, in which he claimed restrictions on the procedure should be decided by individual states.  "I respectfully disagree with President Trump’s statement that abortion is a states’ rights issue," Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said in a statement on Monday morning.  Trump made his much-anticipated announcement in a video the same day, stating his belief that the states should legislate their own limitations on abortion rather than the federal government.  READ THE FULL STORY AT FOX NEWS

Americans’ email, calls, texts in the crosshairs: Congress takes up fight over feds’ spy powers

By Stephen Dinan and Kerry Picket | The Washington Times National security officials have mounted a full-court press in recent weeks to try to head off major changes to the government’s most important snooping authority, warning Capitol Hill that terrorists will benefit if lawmakers require the FBI to get a warrant before querying Americans’ names in its massive trove of data. FBI Director Christopher A. Wray strove to drive home the dangers to Congress in appearances over the last month, telling them that the kinds of cases where the bureau is using the data — emails, texts, phone calls — to look for Americans’ information are too time-sensitive to wait for a warrant. From stopping terrorist plots to spotting cyberattack victims to derailing the flow of f...

Watch Live: 2024 total solar eclipse darkens U.S. skies as totality begins in Texas

By Aliza Chasan, Sara Moniuszko, Luis Giraldo, Kerry Breen, Sarah Maddox | CBS NEWS/CBS Colorado The sky will darken for millions in the U.S. on Monday as the 2024 total solar eclipse arrives and works its way across a swath of the country.  A solar eclipse happens when the moon passes between the Earth and the sun, casting a shadow that blocks out the light from the sun. The sun will appear to vanish behind the moon for minutes at a time as the eclipse travels along its "path of totality," starting on Mexico's Pacific Coast and moving northeast through more than a dozen states, from Texas to Maine, and into eastern Canada.  More than 31 million people live along the path of totality, and many more are flying or driving to witness the April ...

Falcon woman known as ‘praying grandma’ found guilty for her role in the U.S. Capitol riot

By Tony Keith | CBS 11 Colorado Springs A Colorado woman who became known as the “praying grandma” was found guilty for her role in the Jan. 6 Capitol riot. Rebecca Lavrenz was convicted on four misdemeanor charges including entering and remaining in a restricted building, disorderly and disruptive conduct inside a restricted building, disorderly conduct in the Capitol, and parading or picketing in the Capitol, according to court documents. According to the statement of facts for the Lavrenz case, multiple tipsters contacted the FBI to state that Lavrenz was among the rioters. Investigators used cell phone records to confirm her phone was in the area that day. FBI agents interviewed her at her Falcon home and she admitted to following the crowd into the U.S. Capitol building,...

By THOMAS L. KRANNAWITTER, PH.D. | Liberty Lyceum April is National Child Abuse Prevention Month, established in 1983 by President Ronald Reagan’s Proclamation 5039.

Progressives now control virtually every institution of influence and power. READ THE FULL COMMENTARY AT LIBERTY LYCEUM

Huge crowds await a total solar eclipse in North America. Clouds may spoil the view

By Marcia Dunn | The Washington Times MESQUITE, Texas (AP) — Millions of spectators along a narrow corridor stretching from Mexico to the U.S. to Canada eagerly awaited Monday’s celestial sensation — a total eclipse of the sun — even as forecasters called for clouds. The best weather was expected at the tail end of the eclipse in Vermont and Maine, as well as New Brunswick and Newfoundland. It promised to be North America’s biggest eclipse crowd ever, thanks to the densely populated path and the lure of more than four minutes of midday darkness in Texas and other choice spots. Almost everyone in North America was guaranteed at least a partial eclipse, weather permitting. READ THE FULL STORY AT THE WASHINGTON TIMES

Voters express concern over mail-in ballots after major postal office delays

By Misty Severi | Washington Examiner Voters have expressed concern over the speed of the United States Postal Service, which has seen significant delays in recent months, as the country prepares for the 2024 presidential election. The voters are largely concerned about the speed of mail-in ballots, and whether they would arrive at their destinations in time to be counted. However, the U.S. Postal Service said it would use “a robust and proven process to ensure proper handling and delivery of all Election Mail, including ballots,” for November. USPS also apologized for the service interruptions and delays seen in the past six months, which have been attributed to a roof collapse, the transition to new processing equipment, and “executional complications ar...

Trump, RNC raised $65.6 million in March, outpacing March 2020; has $93.1 million in cash on hand

By ALEX ISENSTADT | POLITICO Former President Donald Trump and the Republican National Committee raised $65.6 million in March and ended the month with $93.1 million in cash on hand, according to figures provided to POLITICO. Trump’s allies hope the amount will ease concerns about his fundraising and the cash deficit he is facing against President Joe Biden. The figure — which covers a number of fundraising vehicles that will all have to disclose their activities to the Federal Election Commission later this month — outpaces the $62 million that Trump raised in March 2020, when he was running for reelection. Biden’s political operation has yet to announce its March fundraising haul, though it has said it raised $25 million during a New York City fundraiser last week that was atten...

Meta falsely links pro-parent school board president to child abuse images

BY JORDAN BOYD | The Federalist The Californians at the center of one of the biggest parents’ rights fights in the nation right now were targeted last month when Meta falsely associated searches of their names with a warning about “child sexual abuse.” President of Chino Valley Unified School District Sonja Shaw was one of two parents’ rights activists who, after supporting a policy requiring school staff to notify parents if their child indicates gender dysphoria, faced unfounded smears from Meta’s Facebook and Instagram. A screenshot of searches on these platforms from an attorney for Shaw shows that, for an undefined period, searches including Shaw’s name or position were blocked by a notification warning about child sexual abuse.
