Minnesota Secretary of State THREATENS James O’Keefe, Cam Higby For Going Undercover in Muslim Garb and Easily Exposing State’s Insane ‘Voter Vouching’ System

Minnesota’s Democrat Secretary of State threatened James O’Keefe and Cam Higby after they went undercover in Muslim garb to expose the state’s insane ‘voter vouching’ system.

“Under Minnesota’s Statutes § 201.061, a registered voter can sign an affidavit affirming that they know another individual resides in the same precinct, allowing that person to register at the polls without presenting standard proof of residence. One registered voter can vouch for up to eight people,” O’Keefe said.

“We wanted to find out what this actually looks like inside a polling place and how far election workers would let us take it,” he said.

O’Keefe was dressed in a ‘thobe’ and Cam Higby wore a black burka as they entered polling stations across Minneapolis.

James O’Keefe used a hilariously awful Middle Eastern accent when he tried to vouch for other voters.

“I have a question about the vouching program, yeah? Vouching? I can vouch for them but they are not registered,” O’Keefe asked the poll workers.

“Yeah, that’s fine,” the poll workers said.

“Ahhh good. Can I bring five more” O’Keefe asked the poll workers.

“Up to eight people,” she said.

“Up to eight? Okay, that’s a good thing,” O’Keefe said.

“If you’re all in the same precinct and you are already registered, you can vouch for them as ID. Eight people,” a poll worker told James O’Keefe.

“You’re the ID,” the election worker told O’Keefe.

“I am the ID!” O’Keefe said.

Illegal Alien Gets 3 Years in Prison for Voting in Elections After Falsely Claiming American Citizenship

An illegal alien was sentenced this week after voting in United States elections by falsely claiming naturalized American citizenship, Department of Justice (DOJ) officials said on Friday.

Carlos Felipe Jaramillo-Grajales, a 55-year-old illegal alien from Colombia, was sentenced to three years in federal prison for making false statements in an application for a U.S. passport, aggravated identity theft, falsely claiming that a Social Security number was his, and falsely claiming to be a U.S. citizen to vote in an election.

Likewise, Jaramillo-Grajales was given a deportation order, requiring federal immigration officials to deport him once he has completed his sentence.

“Federal immigration laws serve to safeguard our nation’s borders and protect the integrity of our government,” U.S. Attorney Gregory Kehoe said. “Those who seek to circumvent, exploit, or break these laws will be prosecuted fully.”

According to prosecutors, Jaramillo-Grajales stole the Social Security Number of an American citizen so that he could secure an American passport. The illegal alien used the same Social Security Number to claim American citizenship while obtaining a Florida driver’s license, giving him the ability to register to vote.

Jaramillo-Grajales went on to vote in the 2020 election and several other elections.

“This criminal illegal alien from Colombia has just been sentenced to three years in a federal prison for identity theft and falsely claiming to be a U.S. citizen,” Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Markwayne Mullin said:

Because of his fraud, he was able to obtain a driver’s license and vote in our elections. Thanks to the hard work of the men and women of [Homeland Security Investigations], along with our federal partners, this criminal is out of our communities and, at the end of his sentence, will be removed from our country. DHS will always fight to protect the integrity of our elections, because election security is national security. Only Americans should be electing American leaders.
[Emphasis added]

Prosecutors said that Jaramillo-Grajales, using the stolen Social Security number, married a foreign national who arrived in the U.S. in September 2003 on a B visitor visa. The woman eventually secured naturalized American citizenship in August 2017 before divorcing the illegal alien in January 2020.

Following his divorce, Jaramillo-Grajales left the U.S. for Colombia using his stolen Social Security number while his ex-wife left for Colombia and applied to secure a fiancé visa for him under his real name.

The fiancé visa was approved for Jaramillo-Grajales, allowing him to fly back to the U.S. under his real name, where he remarried his ex-wife in June 2025 before applying for a green card.

“Human Error”?? Inside Milwaukee County’s Voting System and Why Milwaukee’s USB Explanation Raises Questions

Last night in the Wisconsin Democrat primary, David Crowley defeated Francesca Hong by a little more than 3,200 votes.  This was after late-night drama unfolded in Milwaukee County just before midnight, as reported by The Gateway Pundit.

According to a post from Urban Milwaukee co-founder, Jeramey Jannene on X:

“5 of 9 USB drives had audit logs, not actual results, copied to them.  Bipartisan commission will go back to election warehouse, redownload, drive back again.  15k ballots believe to be impacted.  One hour delay.  “Human error” says Paulina Guiterrez.

Wisconsin’s WISN 12 covered the press conference and the remarks from Milwaukee Election Commission Executive Director, Paulina Guiterrez.

“As part of the download process, there are two things: there’s the audit log and the results.  What we uncovered was that five of the sticks had the audit log downloaded and not the results.  It’s a human error.  These things can happen.

So basically what we need to do is go back to the operations center and we’re going to download, out of those five machines, the results and make sure that its not the audit log.

We have the reports printed from the first download.  We’re going to reprint and start the process so that we can compare those results.  We invite you to come join us.  Milwaukee Police Department will come with us too.

We’ll re-download those results and then send them back here to be uploaded.

When asked if it was five machines that were an issue, Guiterrez clarified that it was the “sticks” that had the audit logs downloaded, not the results, on 5 out of 9 “sticks.”

HOUSE GOP TURNS UP THE HEAT: Vendor Ordered to Turn Over Records After New Jersey Registered 6,600 Noncitizens — and Hundreds Actually Cast Ballots

House Republicans are demanding answers from the technology contractor at the center of New Jersey’s explosive voter-registration scandal after state officials acknowledged that roughly 6,600 people who identified themselves as noncitizens were nevertheless added to the voter rolls, and approximately 400 of them later cast ballots.

The House Judiciary Committee and the Committee on House Administration sent a formal oversight letter to IDEMIA CEO Matt Cole on Tuesday, seeking documents and communications that could reveal who knew what, when they knew it, and why the problem was not disclosed publicly for two years.

Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH), Administration Chairman Bryan Steil (R-WI), Oversight Subcommittee Chairman Jeff Van Drew (R-NJ), and Elections Subcommittee Chair Laurel Lee (R-FL) signed the three-page demand.

More Democrat Election Tricks: Milwaukee Election Officials Blame “Human Error” After 5 of 9 USB Drives Arrive to Central HQ WITHOUT Election Results

Milwaukee is at it again.

In the early hours of Wednesday morning, as Wisconsin primary results were still coming in, Milwaukee Election Commission Executive Director Paulina Gutierrez admitted that five of the nine USB flash drives delivered from the city’s central count facility to the county contained audit logs instead of the actual election results.

“It’s a human error,” Gutierrez said. When asked by WISN 12 if it was as simple as somebody pressing the wrong button, she replied, “Correct.”

Officials were forced to return to the operations center at Central Count to re-download the correct results from five machines. Those results then had to be transported back to the Milwaukee County Courthouse for re-uploading. Gutierrez said nearly 15,000 ballots were still outstanding at the time of the admission.

Read that again: on five of the nine USB drives used in a critical election-night transfer, officials copied the wrong files.

James O’Keefe Releases ANOTHER Shocking Undercover Video From Michigan Showing Him Asking “Voters” About Duplicate Absentee Envelopes For Same Person

On Election Day, James O’Keefe was on the ground in Michigan, preparing to expose voter fraud, which is commonly found in a state where Jocelyn Benson, the nation’s most dishonest Secretary of State, is administering elections.  On the day before the election, our Detroit 2020 Election Inspection leadership team (Phani Mantravadi, Yehuda Miller, and Patty McMurray) spoke with James O’Keefe to help him identify some of the hot spots in Detroit as well as surrounding areas that are also ripe for fraud.

O’Keefe’s first bombshell video that went viral on Saturday afternoon was based on my exclusive report, published on the Gateway Pundit on May 19, 2026, featuring six non-citizens on Michigan’s voter rolls who are also on the DHS Worst of the Worst Criminals list, including Dearborn resident Afshin Masheli, a convicted rapist who’s voted several times in Michigan’s election.

According to our research, the U.S. has been unable to deport the convicted rapist, Afshin Masheli, back to Iran. In his latest bombshell video, O’Keefe mentions the Gateway Pundit’s reporting on the Worst of the Worst non-citizens voting in Michigan as he features Masheli, who, according to Check My Vote (an online service that’s tied to Michigan’s voter rolls, created by Phani Mantravadi), voted in 3 of Michigan’s federal and state elections. In O’Keefe’s undercover video, Masheli can be seen speaking with an undercover journalist at his front door, as he arrogantly admits that he was getting ready to vote in Michigan’s primary election later that day.

On Sunday afternoon, James O’Keefe dropped a teaser on X that seemed to imply he was about to drop something even bigger than Saturday’s bombshell:

“Time to raise the stakes,” he wrote, adding, “Tomorrow.”

Insane: MSNOW National Security Reporter Horrified That the Trump DOJ is Stopping Illegals From Voting

This week on MSNOW, their national security reporter David Rohde seemed to express shock and horror that the Trump DOJ is trying to make sure tha illegals don’t vote in our elections.

He refers to illegals voting as a ‘Trumpian conspiracy theory’ even though just last week it was revealed that more than 6,000 illegals were on the voter rolls in the state of New Jersey.

This is a window into the mind of the left. They really want illegals to be able to vote and they’re not particularly shy about showing it.

Transcript via NewsBusters:

DAVID ROHDE: More pe- He would not bring- well, the midterm elections are coming. The Justice Department-

RUHLE: This has been your big thing.

ROHDE: -the Justice Department sent election observers to Michigan for the primary last week. And before that happened, they informed election clerks across the country that they would be arrested and prosecuted federally if they allowed non-citizens to vote.

That is an astonishingly rare thing that happens in the U.S. It’s a giant, frankly, Trumpian conspiracy theory that there’s all these people voting. So whether he’s acting or not, it’s just not acceptable that that’s how, you know, and nothing happened, they sort of watched.

But there’s tremendous worry about what will the FBI do on election day? What will the Attorney General do? What will the Director of National Intelligence- given President Trump’s- We just had four judges testifying the other day, and they were asked – judges, federal judges! – who won the 2020 election. They’re afraid to say it was Joe Biden. This is a huge alarm for our democracy.

STUNNING NEW EVIDENCE Reveals 68 Cities Where Dem-Funded GBI Strategies Sent Over 104 Packages Filled With MI Voter Registrations…Muskegon Was Only Where They Were Caught

Top Michigan media outlets, like the Detroit News and Free Press have done a grave injustice to the country by enabling Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson’s efforts to bury one of the most thoroughly documented investigations into organized election fraud in recent American history. Not only did members of the media downplay the statewide probe into GBI Strategies—launched just one month before the November 2020 election in Michigan—but they made no serious effort to examine or expose the full scope of the scheme or the number of cities and municipalities whose elections may have been compromised by the injection of an unknown volume of fraudulent registrations onto Michigan’s voter rolls.

Prior to the 2020 election, Michigan clerks were furious with Jocelyn Benson for telling them to IGNORE signature matching on absentee envelopes, in violation of election law.  Not only was Jocelyn Benson breaking the law with her “guidance” to the clerks, but at the same time, she was hiding the largest investigation into voter registration fraud in the state’s history from the clerks tasked with ensuring the integrity of the election.

Although the report shows Ann Meisch contacted the Muskegon Police Department on October 16, 2020, we have evidence she appears to have known about the fraudulent voter registratons as early as October 5, when she shared an image on a private Michigan Clerk’s Facebook page we were given access to following our exclusive report on the GBI Strategies/Empower Michigan bombshell investigation.

How The Investigation Began

From the October 26, 2020, Michigan State Police report:

On 10/16/20 Muskegon City Clerk Ann Meisch and Deputy Clerk Kimberly Young contacted the Muskegon Police Department after noticing irregularities in voter registration applications received both in person and by mail.

Meisch received a small quantity and then larger quantities of voter registration applications by mail from a female later identified as [REDACTED]. It was found that [REDACTED] was working for a company called GBI Strategies who also went by the name Empower Michigan. [“EM”]

Meisch stated that in her opinion a quantity of the voter registration forms were highly suspicious and possibly fraudulent. Meisch’s opinion was based on the fact that numerous forms appeared to have been completed by the same writer and upon initial examination addresses on multiple forms were invalid or non-existent. Meisch investigated further and found that phone numbers on multiple forms were erroneous and signatures on multiple forms didn’t appear to match signatures on file with the Department of Secretary of State. Examples included an address in the 7000 block of Pine St and another in the 600 black of Maffett St. Those addresses do not exist in the Muskegon City house numbering system. Another form listed 80 W. Southern Ave which is the address for Muskegon High School and is clearly not a residence.

Meisch found that all the suspected fraudulent applications came from a mailing address “EM” at two locations (24225 W. 9 Mile Rd in Southfield, MI) and (917 N. Opdyke, Auburn Hills, MI). Meisch stated some of the initial forms were dropped off on 10/8/20 by a black female who identified herself as [REDACTED] stated she was employed by Empower Michigan / GBI Strategies. working to register voters and help registered voters obtain absentee ballots.

Meisch told Officers that [REDACTED] appeared reluctant to talk about specifics regarding the company and stated she would have to talk to her supervisor before answering any additional questions. Meisch estimated that “EM” had delivered between 8,000-10,000 voter registration forms to the Muskegon City Clerk’s office. Meisch turned over 42 suspected fraudulent applications to Officer Foster for examination.

On 10/20/20 (deadline day for in-person voter registration applications) returned to the Muskegon City Clerk’s office to deliver additional registration forms in person. Meisch estimated that brought an additional 2500 forms. Meisch contacted the Muskegon Police Department and Detective Logan Anderson and Captain Shawn Bride conducted a non-custodial interview with initially provided a fictitious date of birth. It was discovered that had a misdemeanor warrant issued by the Madison Heights Police Department that was beyond pickup range. [REDACTED] told Detectives she worked for GBI Strategies and is employed by owner Gary Bell. [REDACTED] said she was hired in Michigan in August of 2020 and is paid $1150 per week to find un-registered voters and provide them with a form so they can get registered to vote or obtain their absentee ballot. [REDACTED] stated she has worked in different areas of Michigan and is provided a rental car and lodged in local hotels.[REDACTED] initially told investigators that “canvassers” are paid for each form that is completed but later stated that they were paid hourly no matter how many forms were turned in.

James Talarico Refuses Questions After Report Finds He Voted Five Times Using Parents’ Address

Texas Democrat Senate candidate James Talarico is refusing to answer questions about his residency and voting history after publicly demanding that Republican opponent Ken Paxton answer questions about allegations concerning his conduct.

Talarico’s campaign promoted an ad on X writing,

“Ken Paxton is refusing to answer basic questions about his corruption and criminal record.

Texans are demanding answers. What are you hiding, @KenPaxtonTX?” 

The challenge comes as The Texas Tribune and ProPublica reported that Talarico voted in five elections using his parents’ address after buying a home about six miles away in June 2022, and did not update his voter registration until September 2024. His campaign declined to answer questions about when he began living at the home he owns, instead citing “credible threats” from “right-wing actors” trying to locate Talarico and his family. The outlets noted that Texas law requires residents to register to vote where they live, but Texas ethics attorney Andrew Cates described the residency provisions as “broad and vague,” stating that prosecuting such cases would require proof that a voter knowingly or intentionally broke the law.

Breitbart News reported July 28 that Paxton said Talarico committed election fraud after reports raised questions about whether he had satisfied residency requirements before running for his Texas House seat. “James Talarico has proven he has zero regard for Texans and the rule of law,” Paxton said. “He’s been lying to voters and shamelessly committing election fraud to hold onto power.” Talarico’s campaign maintained that he lives and is registered at the north Austin home he purchased in 2022.

The issue followed Talarico to Arlington this week.

After delivering a policy speech there, Talarico did not take questions from reporters, according to CBS News Texas.

A separate video posted by RNC Research shows a man approaching Talarico and asking, “Why did you commit voter fraud?” A Talarico staffer then takes the man’s phone and turns it off.

Paxton’s campaign spokeswoman Madison Cercy told Breitbart News exclusively, “Talarico has been spoon-fed easy questions by the media throughout his entire time in office and is now refusing to answer credible questions about how he committed voter fraud. Talarico has spent his campaign flip-flopping and lying to Texans with zero accountability. Talarico must answer for defrauding his constituents by falsely claiming to live at his mother’s house.”

Paxton, meanwhile, shared a photograph showing him taking questions from a crowd of reporters during the announcement of his “Protecting the Texas Promise” agenda.

Talarico’s campaign has previously invoked “right-wing operatives” while responding to scrutiny involving the candidate. The New York Times reported that Talarico is dating health care lobbyist Brianna Menard, his former chief of staff, and that the relationship began while she worked as a top aide to him. “Four years ago, after he and his then-chief of staff developed feelings for each other and started dating, she left the office to pursue other opportunities,” Ennis said. “As right-wing operatives continue to attack James’s loved ones, the campaign is asking the public to respect Brianna’s privacy as a private citizen.” Texas House rules do not prohibit lawmakers from having relationships with lobbyists or staff members, according to the Times.
