From Colorado to D.C.: Multi-state voter fraud investigation unfolds

By Candace Hathaway | The Blaze ‘We must send a clear message that election fraud won’t be tolerated.’ Election integrity has become a top concern among the American public, and Ohio is leading an effort to address those concerns and root out fraud. On Tuesday, Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose (R) revealed that an ongoing review discovered potential voter fraud impacting eight states and Washington, D.C. “During an ongoing review of the Ohio Voter Registration Database using state and federal data, evidence of 30 noncitizen registrations were uncovered by Election Integrity Unit investigators.

Massive 19-state operation shatters Chinese sex-trafficking networks

By Candace Hathaway | The Blaze Media Chinese organized crime is fueling a $5 billion-per-year sex-trafficking empire in the United States, operating numerous illicit massage parlors where 75,000 victims are enslaved and traumatized. This modern slavery crisis was the target of a nationwide operation on Thursday involving 19 states and more than 150 law enforcement agencies, Blaze News has learned.

Deace: Trump II, this time it’s personnel

By Steve Deace, Commmentary | The Blaze Media It won’t be what you’re used to, it will sometimes make you uncomfortable, and there will almost certainly be some cleanups in aisle 12 along the way. I saw on X that an NBC news reporter described the “general vibe” around Donald Trump’s Cabinet picks as “WTF,” with the appointment of Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) as attorney general earning gasps of “Oh my God.” Can’t say I don’t share that last sentiment in at least some measure. Gaetz running the Justice Department is perhaps the biggest middle finger in the history of American presidential appointments and one far from certain to be approved by a GOP-controlled Senate.
