 FBI Raids Ohio Democrat Ballot Harvesting Group’s Headquarters — This Follows Thousands of Suspect Registrations in 2024 Election

The FBI raided the Cleveland headquarters of the Ohio Organizing Collaborative (OOC) on Thursday, as part of an ongoing federal investigation into suspected ballot harvesting and voter fraud operations in the key swing state of Ohio.

Agents also fanned out across the state, showing up at the homes of OOC leaders, staff members, volunteers, and connected community organizers in places like Columbus, Dayton, and Cincinnati. They served subpoenas, seized electronic devices, and questioned people directly about voter fraud.

The Ohio Organizing Collaborative presents itself as a “pro-democracy” voter registration nonprofit focused on underrepresented communities. In reality, it functions as a Democrat-aligned operation deeply embedded in progressive get-out-the-vote efforts across Ohio’s major cities.

Amuse reported:

Here is more information on the FBI raids. The FBI hit the main office and several homes of the Democrat operatives.

Via the Statehouse News Bureau:

The Ohio Organizing Collaborative, a group that organizes political activities for Democratic and progressive causes, has been raided by the FBI.

Ohio Organizing Collaborative Board Member Prentiss Haney said FBI agents came to the organization’s Cleveland office yesterday. He said agents have fanned out and questioned people who work with his organization. Haney said agents have searched and sometimes taken laptops and electronic devices as well as interviewed people who work with the organization.

“This is not normal business. I mean there’s no reason for over 100 agents to be knocking on the doors of everyday Ohioans,” Haney said. “Demanding and accusing people of voter fraud as if it was a witch hunt and, and scaring them with the children, following them in their cars to school and to work. I mean this was a full-out assault. I mean, we haven’t seen anything like this since Selma. And so this was completely um politically motivated.”

The Ohio Organizing Collaborative has a documented history of voter registration fraud. In 2017, paid canvasser Rebecca A. Hammonds, who worked directly for the group, pleaded guilty to multiple counts of falsely registering people to vote and forging signatures on voter registration forms. She was sentenced to six months in jail. Some of the fraudulent registrations were even submitted for dead people.

Trump Threatens to Invoke DC Home Rule and “Take Back Washington” if Socialist Mayoral Candidate Wins – “We Won’t Put Up With It”

President Trump threatened to invoke the DC Home Rule Act on Thursday and “take back Washington” again if DC elects a Socialist mayor in the upcoming election. 

Democratic Socialist DC Councilmember Janeese Lewis George is widely considered the frontrunner in next week’s election.

Asked about how he would feel if she won, Trump told reporters, “I wouldn’t like it.” He continued, “Maybe we’ll take back Washington, run it on a federal basis. We won’t put up with it. We’re not going to lose our businesses.”

Previously, signed an executive order declaring a “crime emergency” and invoking powers under section 740 of the DC Home Rule Act to federalize the police. He also deployed hundreds of federal agents and National Guard troops across the capital.

Section 740 allows the President to take control of the Metropolitan Police Department under “special conditions of an emergency nature.”

“By the way, Washington, now, is a safe, beautiful place,” Trump said, touting the success of his DC crime crackdown last Summer and his efforts to restore national parks and monuments across the city.

Decker: One of the two leading candidates, Janice Lewis George, is running a Zohran Mamdani campaign, focused on socialist policies. How would you feel if she emerges victorious in next Tuesday’s primary?

Trump: Well, I wouldn’t like it, and maybe we’ll take back Washington, run it on the federal basis. We won’t put up with it. We’re not going to lose our businesses. By the way, Washington, now, is a safe, beautiful place. We had 22 fountains, Doug, that are all working, not one of them worked for years, for 25 years, 40 years, 58 years. Actually, the pool didn’t work from 19— it was 1928 it was built, it always leaked because it was done in stone. Now it’s done properly. It’s not gonna leak at all.

But this is a beautiful place. People are coming, restaurants are thriving. The restaurants were all closing, closed. Nobody wanted, now, you can’t get restaurant space, you can’t get into them. We have a thriving community. We got rid of the crime. We’re 92% down on crime. Think of it, and we’re going to be close to 100% pretty soon. You always have some whack job someplace, but we’re going to be close to 100%.

So, Washington is thriving, Memphis is— the people came in from Memphis, 74% reduction in crime. New Orleans, think of that, 78% reduction in crime. They had the safest Mardi Gras that they’ve ever had. You know why? Because we sent in people that take care of crime. Chicago should do it, New York should do it. Los Angeles should do it. We’ll make them safe places.

DHS Directs ICE To Deport Illegal Aliens Who Vote In American Elections

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) General Counsel James Percival has directed Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to impose strict penalties, including deportation, on illegal aliens who vote in American elections.

According to a DHS press release, the Immigration and Nationality Act directs the removal of aliens who illegally vote or make a false claim to US citizenship.

DHS states that these provisions allow for the removal of illegal aliens if they illegally participate in our elections. No criminal conviction is required for their removal.

Percival said, “The importance of free, fair, and honest elections is without question. Echoing the words of President Trump, ‘the right of American citizens to have their votes properly counted and tabulated, without illegal dilution, is vital to determining the rightful winner of an election.”

Percival added, “Illegal voting by aliens dilutes the votes of American citizens and undermines our democracy. It must have consequences.”

DHS says the directive will help further implement policies similar to those from President Donald Trump’s March 2025 executive order, “Preserving and Protecting the Integrity of American Elections.”

Trump’s order directs actions across the federal government, including the verification of voter eligibility, grant administration, information-sharing, enforcement of federal integrity laws, improving voting systems, and criminal prosecution of unlawful voting by aliens.

ActBlue CEO Repeatedly Pleads the Fifth as Congress Probes Foreign Donations

ActBlue CEO Regina Wallace-Jones repeatedly invoked her Fifth Amendment rights Wednesday during a congressional hearing on allegations the Democrat fundraising platform accepted foreign-linked donations.

Wallace-Jones declined to answer a series of questions from Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) regarding alleged foreign donations, fraud controls, and the departure of ActBlue’s legal team.

“On the advice of my counsel, I respectfully decline to answer this question pursuant to my Fifth Amendment rights under the Constitution.”

Jordan asked Wallace-Jones about reports that millions of contributions processed by ActBlue in 2024 showed signs of foreign origin.

“Your board chairman said 38 million contributions in 2024 had the signs of foreign origin,” Jordan said. “How much fraud is too much fraud?”

Wallace-Jones pleaded the Fifth Amendment and declined to answer. Jordan then asked how many foreign contributions ActBlue accepted and whether the platform received donations from Russia. Wallace-Jones again declined to respond.

The Ohio Republican also questioned Wallace-Jones about the departure of ActBlue’s in-house legal team and whether the fundraising platform had weakened its fraud-prevention standards.

“Why did your entire legal team quit?” Jordan asked.

Wallace-Jones invoked the Fifth Amendment. Jordan later asked whether ActBlue had weakened its fraud standards to benefit Democrat candidates, drawing the same response.

The hearing comes weeks after a congressional staff report accused ActBlue of accepting illegal foreign donations during the 2024 election cycle and covering up the activity. The report also claimed that every member of ActBlue’s legal and compliance team either resigned, was fired, or took extended leave. It cited subsequent media reports alleging that the departures were linked to concerns over the platform’s donation practices.

A separate congressional staff report released in 2025 alleged that two policy changes adopted by ActBlue in 2024 led to an increase in fraudulent contributions on the platform. Investigators further alleged that internal training materials instructed employees to search for reasons to approve donations rather than flag potentially suspicious transactions.

The House Administration Committee launched its probe of ActBlue in October 2023. In a letter to committee chairman Rep. Bryan Steil (R-WI) that year, then-CEO Regina Wallace-Jones assured Congress that “only donations with passport information are processed.”

ActBlue has helped raise more than $19 billion for Democratic candidates and causes since its founding in 2004.

Anti-Marijuana Ballot Campaigns In Maine And Massachusetts Accused Of ‘Fraudulent’ And ‘Misleading’ Petitioning Tactics

Campaigns that are working to put measures to roll back marijuana legalization on the ballot in two states are facing accusations of “fraudulent” and “misleading” signature gathering tactics—and not for the first time.

Now, however, new social media posts from both states appear to show signature collectors for each measure arguing that people who support legal cannabis access should sign the petitions in order to advance or protect marijuana reform.

A video posted to Reddit of a signature gatherer for the Massachusetts proposal—which would repeal state laws allowing the regulated commercial sales of recreational marijuana while maintaining legal possession and continuing the medical cannabis system—shows the man collecting signatures outside a supermarket next to a sign that says “keep cannabis legal.”

When confronted by a marijuana reform supporter who recorded the petitioner’s interactions with voters, he appeared to be trying to convince them that it is important to qualify the anti-cannabis measure for the ballot in order to then defeat it.

“This is what we’re fighting against right here. That’s why we vote no,” he said. “If we can get this to the ballot right here, we vote no.”

The person who captured the video pointed out that Massachusetts voters already approved marijuana legalization years ago, and that the only way it could be imminently repealed is if the new ballot measure qualified for the November election. If the initiative does not get enough signatures to go before voters, the state’s laws will remain the same.

“It’s my job,” the petitioner insisted, however. “I know what I’m talking about.”

“It’s a group of rich folks from out of state that want to basically take marijuana to when it was a medical marijuana card,” he said. “We don’t want that to happen.”

MSNOW CLOWN SHOW: Mika Blasts Trump for Questioning LA Mayor Race, Panel Then Floats Conspiracy Theories About Republicans Stealing the Midterms

MSNBC may have changed their name to MSNOW, but it’s still the same downright ridiculous network it has always been.

This morning, host Mika Brzezinski tore into President Trump for questioning the Los Angeles mayor race, implying that Trump is pushing conspiracy theories, even though millions of Americans agree with him and think the process has been completely mired in voter fraud.

Then, moments later, her panel launched into an entire segment speculating about how Republicans are going to try to steal the midterm elections.

You see how that works? Raising questions about something that is actually happening in front of our eyes is dangerous misinformation. Yet they are free to speculate about fantasy fraud that hasn’t happened.

Heads they win, tails you lose. Every single time.

Transcript via NewsBusters:

MIKA BRZEZINSKI: President Trump amplifying baseless claims of election fraud in California. This continues as vote counts show his endorsed candidate, Spencer Pratt, has been defeated in the Los Angeles mayoral race. Trump took to social media yesterday, writing in part, quote, “Not possible for Spencer Pratt to have lost the LA runoffs after the big lead he had. Rigged elections.” Here we go again…

That’s how California counts its ballots every year. I’ll speak slowly for those who are confused…

But I think the bigger picture is, there seems to be some sort of preparation going on here. That’s just my analysis. But it doesn’t feel good looking ahead to the midterms, the way these Republicans are behaving.

WILLIE GEIST: You’re not alone in that thought, by the way, Mika…

JIM VANDEHEI: Yeah, I mean, it really sucks for democracy. This is the stuff you see happen in a broken country, in a Third World country, where they’ve not been able to govern effectively. Every time you call into question whether or not our elections are valid, you weaken the soul of the country…

JONATHAN LEMIRE: What they’re doing is laying the groundwork.

MIKA: Yeah, what’s really going on?

LEMIRE: Two different plays they could take while claiming conspiracies as we look towards November’s midterms. They could claim irregularities, they can claim conspiracies and actively take measures to interfere with the vote.

Ohio State Senate Passes Bill to Put Voter ID Amendment on November Ballot – Trump Responds

The Ohio State Senate passed a bill last week, putting a constitutional amendment that would mandate voter ID in Ohio elections on the November ballot.

President Trump responded to the bill’s passage, commending the Republican lawmakers behind the push, adding, “Democrats fought hard against this, presumably so they can CHEAT.”

This will prevent a future Democratic legislature from reversing the current law requiring voter ID by codifying it in the state’s constitution. However, it does not institute voter ID requirements for mail-in voters, leaving a massive loophole for mail-in ballot fraud.

According to a press release from the Ohio State Senate,

The Ohio Senate passed Senate Joint Resolution 10, Sponsored by State Senator Jane Timken (R-Jackson Township) and State Senator Theresa Gavarone (R-Bowling Green), which would put a constitutional amendment on the ballot to enshrine Ohio’s Voter ID laws in the state’s Constitution.

“With AI being easily able to generate items like utility bills and bank statements, it is essential to constitutionally protect voter photo-ID requirements,” said Senator Timken. “This resolution ensures that it is easy to vote but hard to cheat.”

Section 1 A of the legislation states: ” Electors shall provide identification in order to vote, in accordance with laws passed by the General Assembly.” Among the approved forms of photo ID are:

  • A driver’s license or state ID card issues by the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles.
  • A United States passport or passport card.
  • A United States military identification card.
  • An Ohio National Guard card.
  • An identification card issued by the United States Department of Veterans affairs.

The resolution also allows the General Assembly to authorize other forms of photo identification not specified in the resolution, ensuring that Ohio’s elections will remain secure as technology advances.

“Voter photo-ID requirements are widely supported by Americans,” said Senator Gavarone. “Yet in states all around the country, these election protections are being repealed. This joint resolution will allow the people of Ohio to ingrain this important election-integrity measure in our state’s constitution.”

Upon passage by the Ohio House, the proposed amendment will be place on the November ballot, requiring a simple majority vote to go into effect.

Democrats in Ohio claimed that Republicans only seek to boost voter turnout in the midterms. “They think this is going to get their voters out to vote. I think that they’re wrong,” State Senator Bill Demora said, decrying the bill as “purely political.”

FOX News Contributor Guy Benson Responds to Sunny Hostin’s Claim That it’s ‘Not Possible’ for California to Count All the Votes in One Night: ‘WHAT?’ 

Sunny Hostin of ‘The View’ is one of the latest media figures to defend California for taking days or even weeks to count all of the votes in their elections. During a recent broadcast of the show, Hostin said that it’s just ‘not possible’ to count all of the votes in one night.

Her comments are absolutely absurd.

California used to count all of the votes in one night all the time. It only takes a long time now because California has completely changed the rules and allows the counting of mail-in ballots for days after an election, a process that makes it possible for the Democrats to win almost every single time.

Transcript via NewsBusters:

FARAH GRIFFIN: Florida has a lot of mail-in and they get their results the same night. It makes people feel like, ‘oh, there’s something off,’ but it’s not. It’s how their rules are, they’re dumb rules.

[Crosstalk]

HOSTIN: I feel the exact opposite. I think if someone is taking their time to count the votes, I think if someone is looking at every single thing, because in California, it’s the most populous state. We all know that. (…) And so, it does take a long time to be right, to do it well.

FARAH GRIFFIN: Why can Florida do it right in one night though?

HOSTIN: I don’t think you can do it when you have 23 million registered voters! It’s just not possible!

Rigged Election Buries LA Mayoral Candidate Spencer Pratt in Latest Ballot Dump – Democrat Nithya Raman Projected to Win

Los Angeles Mayoral Candidate Spencer Pratt fell into third place behind Democrat City Councilwoman Nithya Raman in the Los Angeles mayoral primary after a damning ballot dump heavily favored the Democratic candidates.

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass has already been projected to advance to the November runoff. The top two candidates will advance if no candidate receives more than 50% of the vote.

Raman gained over 19,000 votes in the latest dump, Bass gained nearly 16,000, and Pratt gained just under 8,500. 80% of the batch went to the Democrats.

With an estimated 146,000 ballots remaining to count, Pratt now trails Raman by more than 3,000 votes. Previously, Raman trailed by roughly 40,000 votes.

Pratt dominated with mail-in ballots received by election day, but those received after election day have heavily favored the Democrats. Where are these votes coming from? How can anybody trust these results?

ABC7’s Jory Rand suggested that, while unlikely, Pratt could “somehow” come back if “we see a batch in the last couple of days of those mail-in ballots that were heavy on Spencer Pratt.”

Dirty LA Times Admits Thousands of Ballots Were Dumped into LA Mayor’s Race w/out a Single One for Spencer Pratt – But “It Was a Glitch”

Never count out the fake news to defend outright fraud and lawlessness by the left.

Last Tuesday, on election night, Spencer Pratt was comfortably in second place in the Los Angeles Mayor’s race. Pratt dominated with early mail-in ballots that arrived before Election Day. Pratt had further extended his lead by more than 12,000 votes when the in-person results came in.

With roughly 50 percent of the expected vote counted early Wednesday morning, Bass led with approximately 36-37 percent while Pratt pulled in a strong 29.2 percent.

Progressive City Councilmember Nithya Raman trailed far behind in third at 21.4 percent.

But in California Election Day has expanded to Election month. Democrats flip elections away from Republican candidates after all of the ballots come in that were discovered AFTER Election Day.

In one ballot drop this week Spencer Pratt did not receive a single vote. The votes all went to the two far left Marxists he is running against!

in one batch incumbent Karen Bass added more than twelve thousand votes to her total, Nithya Raman added nearly ten thousand votes to her total, but Spencer Pratt added none at all. Other candidates continued to accumulate support in the same tranche.

Of course, this is statistically impossible.

Leave it to The Los Angeles Times to jump in and defend the election corruption!

Journalist Kevin Rector clears this all up by declaring this a glitch!
