Do you have any news on Heather Honey who's been appointed to a role re: election integrity with Homeland Security? She was part of the "Stop the Steal Movement' and is a loyal Trump supporter. www.politico.com/news/2025/08...

The media needs to stop calling this an “immigration crackdown.” That’s not what Trump’s doing. He’s using the military and ICE to invade cities and occupy them. Trump is itching for a fight, and he wants it with blue-city mayors and blue-state governors. The good news: they’re not backing down.

I'll never understand why 36.2% of registered U.S. voters failed to cast a ballot in 2024. We have no power politically other than our voices and filing lawsuits unless we win in the midterms in 2026. In addition, the White House is being ruined by building a ballroom and a concrete courtyard.

I agree Aaron. And now I'm very concerned about Trump's comment about not allowing mail-in voting and wanting the voting machines replaced. We've had mail-in voting in WA state since 2013 and it works very well. Just wondering if Ivanka still has a patent for voting machines?
