From question to confrontation: Peters’ legal team forces Colorado courts to choose

By Jen Schumann | Rocky Mountain Voice One day after the constitutional question facing Colorado courts came into focus, attorneys for former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters moved to force an answer. Late Tuesday, Peters’ legal team filed an urgent motion asking the Colorado Court of Appeals to determine whether it still has jurisdiction to proceed at all, given a presidential pardon and what her attorneys argue are unresolved violations of federal election law. The filing marks a shift from explanation to escalation. Yesterday’s reporting centered on the unresolved authority question now hanging over the case. This motion is the defense’s attempt to compel the court to decide it. It follows a Dec. 8 federal court order that declined to resolve Peters’ constitutional cla...

Noncitizen Testifies She Voted Repeatedly In Georgia Elections

By: Brianna Lyman | The Federalist A woman who moved to Georgia from the Bahamas 30 years ago and is not a citizen admitted during a Dec. 9 State Election Board (SEB) hearing that she has voted multiple times. It is illegal for noncitizens to vote in federal elections. Clayton County resident Melanie Pickett is a Bahamian native but has lived in the Peach State for approximately 30 years. According to Pickett, she does not “know” “how it happened.” “I got a driver’s license … and then I started getting” voting-related information “in the mail, and I said, ‘Oh, OK.’ And then I got a jury duty [summons]. So I went to jury duty, and at the end of the information [sheet] you had to fill out, it said, ‘Are you a U.S. citizen,’ and I said, ‘no’ and they told...

Former FBI Agent Says DOJ Has Strong Case Against Obama Officials Accused of Election Meddling

By: John Solomon | Just the News Former FBI agent and Navy SEAL Jonathan Gilliam says Trump should name a “Justice Czar” to coordinate both prosecutions and policy fixes. "This would be a slam dunk case for any US Attorney," he said. Aretired FBI agent who assembled major crime cases for years says Attorney General Pam Bondi has a “slam dunk” conspiracy case to prosecute former federal agents and prosecutors for election meddling for relentlessly pursuing Donald Trump for political purposes while protecting prominent Democrats like Hillary Clinton in the face of damning evidence. Jonathan Gilliam, a retired FBI agent and Navy SEAL, told the Just the News, No Noise television show that Trump should name a “Justice Czar” to coordinate both prosecutions and po...

Fulton County admits rule violations involving 300,000 ballots tied to 2020 certification

By Amy Curtis | Townhall Some Republicans have argued for years that the 2020 presidential election was stolen. The truth is, we'll never get a clear answer on everything that went on during that year, but there was undoubtedly some questionable and shady stuff. Anyone who believes in democracy and election integrity should work tirelessly to make sure nothing like that ever happens again. That's why this story is so damning and alarming. It shows that one county in Georgia failed to follow the rules in 2020, and that the state's electoral votes — as well as the Senate race — could have gone in a different direction. Officials in Fulton County, Georgia — home of the state's capital, Atlanta — admitted they "violated" election rules in 2020 and accepted more than 300,000 early...

Report Claims Whitmer, Ossoff, and Booker Part of Massive Democrat Donation Laundering

By Jim Hoft, Bob Cushman | Commentary, The Gateway Pundit Guest post by Bob Cushman Once in a while, a reporter finds a story that challenges his or her ability to tell because it is so massive in terms of time and scope. He or she feels over-whelmed. This reporter feels that way, but let’s begin anyway. This story will attempt to show the reader the journey that this reporter has been on to discover what is most likely one of the largest money laundering evolutions in the history of this country. First Indications of Massive Money Laundering – 2019 Six years ago in October of 2019, I was downloading data from the FEC database, which by the way is quite easy to do. As I compiled the data I found that three Michigan Congresswomen had received about 75% of their t...

Trump Blasts Polis as Weak and Pathetic Over Continued Imprisonment of Tina Peters

Colorado Faces Federal Lawsuit as Griswold Refuses to Release Voter Data

By Marissa Ventrelli | Colorado Politics The U.S. Department of Justice has filed a lawsuit against Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold after she refused to provide the agency with certain voter information. Last week, the DOJ’s Civil Rights Division asked Griswold’s office to provide unredacted voter data, including full names, dates of birth, residential addresses, and driver’s license numbers. Federal authorities have sought voter data from more than 20 states, saying it’s part of project to ensure election security. The DOJ lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court in Denver, alleges that Griswold violated the federal Civil Rights Act by refusing to provide the records. READ THE FULL ARTICLE AT COLORADO POLITICS

Trump announces full pardon of Tina Peters in Truth Social post

By Jen Schumann | Rocky Mountain Voice President Trump posted on Wednesday that he is granting a full pardon to former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters, who has served 14 months of a nine year prison sentence.  He announced it in a Truth Social post late in the afternoon.  Trump criticized Democrats in the post, saying violent crime has gone unaddressed while election-related cases moved forward after 2020. “For years, Democrats ignored violent and vicious crime of all shapes, sizes, colors, and types,” Trump wrote. He added that violent criminals “who should have been locked up were allowed to attack again.” Trump said Democrats instead chose to go after people who pushed for election security, writing that they “chose instead to prosecute anyone ...

Colorado’s systems have failed Tina Peters again and again

By RMV Editorial Board On December 8, 2025, three events collided in Colorado that no honest observer can dismiss as coincidence. A federal judge dismissed Tina Peters’ habeas corpus petition, admitting she raised “important constitutional questions” about whether a state court punished her for her speech, then refused to consider those questions because of the Younger doctrine. Hours later, Colorado’s Department of Corrections moved Peters into Isolation Detention Observation: twenty-two hours a day in a concrete cell, lights on around the clock, no yard time and a single explanation—“this is for your safety.”  That same afternoon, the United States Department of Justice opened a civil-rights investigation into Colorado’s prisons and youth facilities, citing po...

Kansas case and new immigration report deepen scrutiny of Colorado’s stance on SAVE

By Jen Schumann | Rocky Mountain Voice A Kansas mayor’s felony voting case is renewing national attention on how noncitizens end up registered to vote and what states can do to prevent it. The issue is gaining urgency as federal agencies expand the Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements program, known as SAVE, while Colorado and several other states reject federal data-sharing efforts even as federal law requires them to maintain accurate voter rolls. A Kansas case shows the stakes of mistaken registration The case driving the discussion is unfolding in Coldwater, Kansas, where Mayor Jose “Joe” Ceballos-Armendariz, a noncitizen, has been charged with voting in at least three elections. The state’s case rests on Kansas election statutes that classify noncitizen voting as...
