He himself would plead guilty to falsifying business records, and was identified as being one of three Democrats who convinced two mentally disabled men to sign absentee ballots, which were later filled in for them. For his efforts, DeFiglio was sentenced to 100 hours of community service. Other colleagues received similar sentences for similar crimes, with one former Councilman being hit with six... Voter Fraudster Amy Busefink Lobbies Texas Legislature to Conceal Voter Fraud PJ Media ^ | April 13, 2013 | J. Christian Adams Project Vote Deputy Director Amy Busefink is busy lobbying the Texas legislature on election-integrity issues — trying to stop Texas from checking to see if Texas voters are registered in multiple states. She recently organized a letter of various left-wing groups trying to stop legislation before the Texas House Elections Committee. Members of the Texas legislature shouldn’t take Busefink seriously — she has a history of participating in voter fraud. Busefink enters her plea in court to voter fraud. Busefink sent a letter on April 8, 2013, to the Texas House Elections Committee asking them to block a law that... • (VOTINO SCAM) Castro wore wire to save his own skin (registered illegals at his address) NY POST ^ | 4/5/13 | BRUCE GOLDING, ERIK KRISS and CARL CAMPANILE Disgraced Bronx NY Assemblyman Nelson Castro resigned amid revelation he’s been wired---cooperating with prosecutors to save himself. Castro, a Dominican Republic native, worked his way up the Democrat political ladder. Once chief of staff to former Assemblyman (now state Senator) Adriano Espaillat (Dem-Manhattan), he forged close ties with Bronx Democrats. Castro was elected in 2008, but turned government witness when the state charged him with a sealed perjury indictment in 2009----for making false statements WRT large numbers who registered to vote using the address of his Bronx apartment. Stop the Federal Power Grab of Our Elections JBS ^ | 4/2/2013 | Kurt Hyde Five new bills in Congress threaten an unconstitutional federal power grab over elections. No fewer than five bills to increase federal control over American elections have been filed in the 113th Congress. The Obama administration has appointed a bipartisan presidential commission supposedly for the purpose of streamlining election procedures and reducing the long lines. However, even a cursory review of the bills already proposed reveals that passage of these bills would enable an unconstitutional federal power grab over American elections accompanied by drastic reductions in the safeguards against electoral fraud that remain in at least some of the states. 2 More People Charged in Voter Fraud Investigation kcrg ^ | Updated: Mar 26, 2013 at 11:44 AM CDT DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Two more people face charges as Iowa Secretary of State Matt Schultz's crackdown on voter fraud continues. A Melbourne man is charged with election misconduct and fraudulent practice. The Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation says 53-year-old Nickie Dean Perkins -snip- Authorities also have charged 64-year-old Jesus Castorena, of Hampton, with perjury for claiming on 2010 driver's license and voter registration applications he was U.S. citizen. He had been deported to Mexico in 2007. Voter Fraud Charges Filed in Hamilton County, Ohio — Others May Follow New American ^ | 15 March 2013 12:43 | Kurt Hyde On March 11 Hamilton County, Ohio, Prosecutor Joseph T.

Arkansas Senate overrides veto of voter ID bill fox ^ | March 27, 2013 LITTLE ROCK, Ark. – The Arkansas Senate voted Wednesday to override Democratic Gov. Mike Beebe's veto of legislation that would require voters to show photo identification before casting a ballot. The Republican-led Senate voted 21-12, along party lines, to override the veto. There was no debate beforehand. The bill's sponsor, Republican state Sen. Bryan King, said he expects the House to vote to override the veto on Thursday. Each chamber needs only a simple majority to override a veto in Arkansas. Beebe vetoed the bill Monday, saying it amounts to "an expensive solution in search of a problem" and would.. Arkansas Governor Vetoes Voter ID Bill ABC News/WLS ^ | March 26, 2013 | Uncredited (LITTLE ROCK, Ark.) -- Republicans may still get the last laugh after Arkansas Democratic Gov.

While GOP lawmakers said the legislation is intended to reduce voter fraud, Beebe argued that it was actually "an expensive solution in search of a problem." Since Republicans took over the Arkansas Legislature for the first time since the late 1880s, it's more than likely they'll override the veto with a simple majority.

Virginia Governor, Republican Bob McDonnell, signs Voter ID into law Canada Free Press ^ | Mar. 26, 2013 | Robert Laurie Whether you believe voter fraud is a huge problem or just a minor annoyance, there’s no way you can argue that it doesn’t happen. Virtually every recent election has been marred by reports of people voting under fake names, voting multiple times, or casting fraudulent ballots. Supporters of Voter ID laws have long argued that there’s a simple way to stop most of these problems from occurring: require a photo ID from each registered voter in order to cast a ballot. It’s simple, quick, and prevents “disenfranchisement” by securing the process. In short, it’s a no-brainer. So, obviously, Democrats hate...

  • Women and the Presidency

    Women and the Presidency

    Women and the Presidency By Cynthia Richie Terrell* I. Introduction As six women entered the field of Democratic presidential candidates in 2019, the political media rushed to declare 2020 a new “year of the woman.” In the Washington Post, one political commentator proclaimed that “2020 may be historic for women in more ways than one”1 given that four of these woman presidential candidates were already holding a U.S. Senate seat. A writer for Vox similarly hailed the “unprecedented range of solid women” seeking the nomination and urged Democrats to nominate one of them.2 Politico ran a piece definitively declaring that “2020 will be the year of the woman” and went on to suggest that the “Democratic primary landscape looks to be tilted to another woman presidential nominee.”3 The excited tone projected by the media carried an air of inevitability: after Hillary Clinton lost in 2016, despite receiving 2.8 million more popular votes than her opponent, ever more women were running for the presidency. There is a reason, however, why historical inevitably has not yet been realized. Although Americans have selected a president 58 times, a man has won every one of these contests. Before 2019, a major party’s presidential debates had never featured more than one woman. Progress toward gender balance in politics has moved at a glacial pace. In 1937, seventeen years after passage of the Nineteenth Amendment, Gallup conducted a poll in which Americans were asked whether they would support a woman for president “if she were qualified in every other respect?”4 * Cynthia Richie Terrell is the founder and executive director of RepresentWomen, an organization dedicated to advancing women’s representation and leadership in the United States.

  • We Welcome Your Support in Our Nonpartisan War on Waste. It's Your

    PAID ADVERTISEMENT President Donald J. Trump The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW Washington, DC 20500 Dear Mr. President, In our previous two communications in The Wall Street Journal, we called attention to the lurking threat our country faces from an exploding national debt fueled by runaway government spending. We urged you to lead a national campaign to restore fi scal soundness to our great country by waging a nonpartisan War on Waste. From a recent U.S. Government Accountability Offi ce report*: “Since 2003…cumulative improper payment estimates have totaled about $1.4 trillion.” $1,400,000,000,000. Examples of improper payments are payments to doctors with suspended or revoked medical licenses or to people identifi ed as deceased in federal death fi les. A War on Waste is long overdue. We respectfully recommend that you announce to the nation that you are beginning a four-step War on Waste, that stamping out profl igate government spending is a top priority of your administration. Step 1 – Start a Transparency Revolution Publicize every White House expenditure. Direct every department and agency in your administration to follow suit. Classifi ed expenditures would be excluded. Transparency will be a culture-changing force. It will revolutionize government. It will infl uence how people vote. Knowing there is nowhere to hide will motivate politicians to earn votes with fi scal prudence rather than wasting taxpayer dollars by buying votes. We are living in the Information Age and the Big Data world. There is no reason why every government expenditure should not be public, accessible to the voting public via cell phone, computer, and iPad.

    What They're Saying: JASTA

    Received by NSD/FARA Registration Unit 03/30/2017 6:31:12 PM What They’re Saying: JASTA JASTA and its effect on U.S. National Security The Justice Against Sponsors of Terrorism Act (JASTA), vetoed by President Obama but overridden on September 28, 2016 by the U.S. Congress, is now law. This legislation will likely trigger a chain of unin­ tended and harmful consequences and is already leading to foreign lawsuits against the U.S., which could ultimately implicate U.S. personnel serving abroad. The legislation passed by Congress has received widespread opposition from the country’s top defense and national security leaders and our military veterans. Administration & National Security Leaders: Defense Secretary Ash Carter i September 26,2016 “Allowing our partners and allies—not just designated state sponsors of terrorism—to be subject to lawsuits inside the United States will inevitably undermine the trust and cooperation our forces need to accomplish their important missions. By damaging our close and effective cooperation with other countries, this could ultimately have a chilling effect on our own counterterrorism efforts.” Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Joseph Dunford i September 28,2016 “Any legislation that risks reciprocal treatment by foreign governments would increase the vulnerability of U.S. Service members to foreign legal action while acting in an official capacity.” CIA Director John Brennan i September 28,2016 “I believe JASTA will have grave implications for the national security of the United States.
