A historic step! Wyoming requires proof of citizenship for voter registration.

Wyoming has become the first state in the United States to require proof of citizenship for residents to register to vote. This measure, which will take effect in July 2025, will apply to all elections: local, state, and federal.

Wyoming Governor Mark Gordon allowed the voter residency bill to become law without his signature.

While Gordon did not veto the legislation, his decision to refrain from signing it reflects his neutral stance on a law focused on verifying voter eligibility.

«I am a strong supporter of the idea that citizens should be residents of Wyoming for a considerable period of time before being allowed to participate in our elections (it took me eighteen years), » Gordon said.

Additionally, I have expressed concern over the vagueness of some terms in the law, such as the possibility of rejecting a vote for “any indication” of an issue with registration documentation. This could be difficult for county clerks to apply as there is no clear standard.

Gordon also anticipated that the law would likely lead to litigation. However, he has acknowledged that the legislation grants the Secretary of State the authority to regulate voter identification, something he had unsuccessfully attempted last year.

This legislation is another step toward improving election integrity in the state, aligning with Republican policies aimed at ensuring voters are properly established in Wyoming.

Voter ID Alone Won’t Make Pennsylvania’s Elections Trustworthy

Pennsylvania, which cemented itself as a true swing state in the last few presidential elections, does not currently require voter ID at the polls, other than for first-time voters. The rumblings about the need for Pennsylvania voter ID are intensifying, and yet another in a long string of bills was just introduced.

Social media punditry — by self-proclaimed experts — would lead the casual observer to believe that voter ID is the answer to all election integrity woes in the United States. While requiring voters to prove they are who they say they are does make elections more secure, the reality tends to be more complicated, especially in Pennsylvania. The state’s elected Republicans should understand that voter ID by itself will not solve Pennsylvania’s election integrity challenges — larger reform is needed.

While the Keystone State actually has a voter ID law on the books, signed into law in 2012 by Republican Gov. Tom Corbett, it has never been enforced due to lawsuits immediately filed against it, eventually resulting in a court order declaring it unconstitutional. The legal hijinks that resulted in the invalidation of the law irritated the Republicans in the Pennsylvania legislature, resulting in many new proposals for Voter ID laws that never made it past the drawing board, thwarted by Democrats in the legislature and by Democrat governors.

SOUNDS FAMILIAR: Irish Prosecutors Consider Charging Conor McGregor With ‘Inciting Hate’ Right After He Announces Presidential Bid

It looks like leftists in Ireland are taking a page out of the leftist playbook in America.

No sooner had Conor McGregor announced his bid for president of Ireland, prosecutors announced that they may seek to charge him with inciting hate.

This looks like the same type of lawfare BS that we just went through for years here in the United States.

Breitbart News reports:

Irish Prosecutors Mull Charging Conor McGregor with ‘Inciting Hatred’ After Presidential Bid Announcement

In the wake of Conor McGregor announcing his intention to run for president, Irish prosecutors are reportedly considering charging the UFC legend over allegedly “inciting hatred” amid the 2023 Dublin riots.

In the wake of McGregor being invited by the Trump administration to the White House and later announcing his intentions to run for the Irish presidency, the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) in Dublin is said to be examining social media posts from the outspoken mixed marital artist for potential criminal charges, the Irish Independent reported.

According to the paper, the National Bureau of Criminal Investigation (NBCI) recently sent the DPP a police file regarding an investigation into posts McGregor made in 2023. If the prosecutors take up the case, the Irish fighter could face up to seven years in prison for his social media comments under the European nation’s draconian speech restrictions.

One of the supposedly offending posts came on the night before the Dublin riots, in which McGregor said in response to Ukrainian refugees being allowed to vote in local elections: “Ireland, we are at war.”

People can see what’s going on here.

Stunning Discovery Made in Michigan – SOS Jocelyn Benson Used “Altered” Voter Rolls — Over 35,000 Voter Histories Have Reportedly Been ERASED In Violation of MI Law 

Michigan data analyst expert Tim Vetter of DEEP (Data Evaluation of Election Processes) has been uncovering the unlawful manipulation of Michigan’s voter rolls since the 2020 election.

Vetter, a highly regarded data analyst and Manufacturing Equipment Engineer, has dedicated hundreds if not thousands of hours to scouring Michigan’s voter rolls, looking for clues to help better understand why they are such a disaster.

On Friday, Mr. Vetter called to inform me that he had discovered that Michigan SOS Jocelyn Benson’s BOE (Board of Elections)
has failed to report 35,002 voter history records from two separate 2024 special elections in Michigan.

On January 30, 2024, a special primary election was held in Michigan’s 13th District to replace Democrat Rep. Lori M. Stone, who resigned after she won the election as the mayor of the city of Warren in Michigan’s 25th District.

A special election was also ordered after Democrat State Rep. Kevin Coleman resigned after being elected as Westland’s mayor.

The special election to replace the two Michigan Representatives with the winners of the primary election took place on April 16, 2024.

Democrat candidate Mai Xiong won the District 13 race, while Democrat Peter Herzberg won his race to replace the Democrat state representative in District 25.

On the surface, everything about these special elections appears to be fairly innocuous — two Democrat candidates replace two former Democrat MI State representatives. If both races, which, according to the vote totals, yielded mostly expected wins for both Democrat candidates, then why, Vetter asks, did Michigan’s BOE fail to report the vote history records for over 35K voters for the last 4 months?

Vetter, who has been analyzing Michigan’s voter rolls for years, decided to do a test run on the special election results to see if the QVF “Qualified Voter File” held by the local clerks (referred to as the “Source QVF” by Vetter) matched the voter histories recorded by MI SOS Benson’s BOE (referred to as the “Altered QVF” by Vetter).

New York Court Strikes Down Law Allowing Noncitizens to Vote in Municipal Elections

In a landmark decision, the New York Court of Appeals has struck down a controversial law that would have allowed noncitizens and illegal immigrants to vote in municipal elections. 

The court ruled 6-1, declaring the law unconstitutional and reaffirming that only U.S. citizens have the right to vote in New York’s elections, effectively ending a contentious legal battle.

The law, passed in 2021 by the New York City Council during the final days of Mayor Bill de Blasio’s administration, was automatically enacted in 2022 after neither de Blasio nor his successor, Mayor Eric Adams, vetoed it. Designed to extend voting rights to over 800,000 noncitizens, including legal immigrants, in municipal elections, the law quickly faced fierce legal opposition, according to Trending Politics. 

Critics, including Republican lawmakers, argued that it violated the state constitution, which explicitly limits voting rights to U.S. citizens.

President Not Allowed To Solve Problems He Was Elected To Fix, Judges Order

There’s no doubt that if President Trump used his executive authority to increase hiring at federal agencies, allow in a million more destitute migrants at the southern border, and fast-track the high-ranking of trans service members, not a single judge would have ordered him to stop.

It would have never happened because in America 2025, the judiciary has made it impossible to ever fix severe problems Americans elect a president to address. The only thing a president can do on his own, according to their orders and rulings, is make the problems worse. To grow the government, flood the country with foreigners, and normalize antisocial behavior is always legal and legitimate. Joe Biden did it with impunity. But to oppose any of it is to get smacked down by some district judge who can’t stop raving about the “Hamilton” musical.

It’s been utterly surreal this week to watch court after court tell the head of the executive branch that he has no control over his own administration’s agencies (including the Defense Department), that he can’t decline to spend billions of taxpayer dollars on his political opposition’s domestic priorities, and that he’s required to halt deportations of alleged foreign terrorists.

D.C. District Court Judge Ana Reyes, a Biden appointee, on Tuesday prohibited the Defense Department from ending accommodations for trans-identifying service members, an early order from the president for the purpose of military “readiness.” Reyes, who earnestly cited the “Hamilton” musical in her order, effectively made herself commander of the armed forces, a job description that was previously exclusive to the president of the United States.

State Democrats Want Most Anyone to Vote in Washington – Even If They’ve Never Lived There

WA State Democrats (aka “The Anyone From Anywhere Can Vote Party”) sponsored bill SSB 5017: AN ACT Relating to adopting national standards for uniformed and overseas civilian voting, including conforming amendments to existing statute – Creates very troubling new state rules pertaining to the Uniform Military and Overseas Voter Act (UMOVA) and the Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act (UOCAVA).

As currently written, the bill would allow people born outside the U.S. who have NEVER EVEN SET FOOT OR LIVED in WA State (aka “Permanent Overseas Voters”) to vote in local elections – e.g., County Council, Commissioners, City Council, Mayors, School Boards, levies, being able to raise taxes on the locals, etc.

Yes, according to the bill, as long as these “voters”:

• Are over 18 and a United States citizen

• Have a “family member” who is (or was) eligible to vote in Washington and

• Have not registered to vote in another state

They are allowed to vote in our LOCAL ELECTIONS. What could go wrong?

This is a ridiculous and terrible policy, as this new class of “voters” could easily have no vested interest in the state or community they are now allowed to vote in.

Additionally, with no real, valid way to prove the actual I.D. of the voter, another easy avenue for voter fraud is opened up with SSB 5017.

Zelenskiy Cozies Up To Turkey As Erdogan Sees Chance To Finally Join EU, Zelenskiy WILL NOT Hold Elections

The former Ottoman Empire – Turkey – firmly ensconced in a Islamist frame of mind, as it supports the former Al Qaeda members running Syria and slaughtering Christians, sees its chance to finally be part of the EU tyrannical club with the issue of Ukraine.

As America pulls back from the brink, Turkey is a possible benefactor for Ukrainian President Zelenskiy, now that further massive American ‘aid’ is not likely.

But it will come with a cost for Ukraine. After all, Ukraine does need men.

Zelenskiy said yesterday that Ukraine saw Turkey as a partner in security guarantees for his country, and added that Kyiv was ready to ratify a free trade agreement between the states.
