An In-Depth Look at President Trump’s Election Integrity Executive Order and It’s Massive Potential Impact

Earlier this week, President Donald Trump took a crucial step in fulfilling the promise to initiate reform in our elections.  In signing the Executive Order “PRESERVING AND PROTECTING THE INTEGRITY OF AMERICAN ELECTIONS,” he established a solid foundation to ensure free and fair elections for all eligible voters are restored for all eligible American voters.

“Election fraud…you’ve heard the term?” President Trump asked as he began signing the Executive Order.  “It will end it, hopefully.”

“This will go a long way toward ending it,” he continued.  “There are other steps that we will be taking in the coming weeks.  And we think we’ll be able to end up getting fair elections.”

However, President Trump acknowledged that some people think he shouldn’t be complaining because he “won in a landslide.”  That doesn’t seem to faze him as he demonstrates a clear understanding through the Order of what’s at stake and what needs to be done.

Detroit Activist Ramon Jackson Explains How Multiple Elections In Michigan Have Been Stolen: “People are actually being registered unlawfully back to Detroit when they leave Detroit”

Detroit resident “The Advocate” Ramon Jackson, who spent the majority of his life living in Detroit, spoke in front of the Michigan House of Representatives Election Integrity Commission on Tuesday morning.

During his powerful testimony, Jackson, who the popular Detroit Pastor Lorenzo Sewell accompanied, told the committee the Secretary of State’s office along with Detroit City Clerk Janice Winfrey’s office,  are “preying” on individuals in Detroit who “fit a pattern” of having never voted or rarely voted, and either frequently move within the city of Detroit or have moved out of state and received an out-of-state license.

Jackson told the committee that he had concrete evidence of multiple voters who had signed affidavits to support his claims.

The Detroit activist told the committee members that once these individuals have been identified using the criteria he mentioned, they are falsely being registered to vote and are being voted for in multiple elections.

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.

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.

Wisconsin Election in Jeopardy? Concerned Clerk Sounds Alarm on Absentee Ballot Vulnerabilities

A Wisconsin election clerk has come forward with a chilling warning about major vulnerabilities in the state’s absentee ballot system, raising urgent concerns about election integrity just weeks before a crucial Supreme Court election.

Fearing retaliation and job loss, the clerk remains anonymous but reached out to The Gateway Pundit in a desperate plea to expose a serious threat to election security.

According to this whistleblower, a primary election glitch involving the state’s electronic voter registration system, Badger Books, could serve as a preview of potential fraud in the upcoming election.

“We had a glitch with Badger Books on Tuesday, February 18, that really got me thinking and worried to the hilt. I am happy to go into great detail. It is not nuanced and it all falls on clerks and the trustworthiness of our larger areas–Milwaukee and Dane Counties,” the clerk said.

On February 18, Badger Books reportedly malfunctioned by checking in absentee ballots that had never been returned, creating an erroneous voter turnout rate of up to 27% in some townships.

The whistleblower describes a deeply flawed absentee ballot process that appears ripe for abuse. Here’s how it works:

  • A voter requests an absentee ballot online or by calling their clerk. The request is processed through BadgerBooks, and the clerk prints labels for the ballot.
  • The ballot is mailed to the voter, recorded as sent, and then recorded again when returned.
  • However, there is nothing stopping election officials from printing duplicate ballot labels, tracking unreturned ballots, and fabricating votes with forged signatures and fake witnesses.

“There is no signature verification, no ID matching an address, and nothing preventing someone from printing extra labels and submitting fraudulent ballots.” the clerk warns.

Utah GOP to End Universal Mail-In Voting, Moves to Restore Election Integrity

Utah Republicans are making a stand for election security, passing legislation that will dramatically change how mail-in ballots are handled in the state. The GOP-controlled Legislature has approved legislation that would end universal mail-in voting and implement stronger voter identification requirements. The bill now awaits the signature of Republican Governor Spencer Cox, who has already signaled his support.

For years, Utah has been one of the few Republican-led states that embraced universal mail-in voting, which automatically sends ballots to every registered voter. But amid growing concerns about election integrity, particularly from voters who have watched election chaos unfold in other states, Utah lawmakers are taking action to tighten security measures and stop potential absentee ballot fraud.

Eight states and Washington, D.C., allow all elections to be conducted entirely by mail: California, Colorado, Hawaii, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, Vermont and Washington state.

Five Republicans joined all Democrats in opposing the bill, which passed with veto-proof margins in the House and fell one vote short of a veto-proof majority in the Senate.

Democrat State Sen. Nate Blouin was quoted by the Associated Press as saying Republicans were “conspiracy thinking” around election security.

Under the new Utah law, voters who wish to receive mail-in ballots must opt-in, rather than having ballots sent to them automatically. This represents a major shift from the current system, which many critics argue is vulnerable to fraud and manipulation. Additionally, the bill strengthens voter ID requirements, requiring anyone returning a ballot by mail or drop box to provide the last four digits of their driver’s license, state ID, or Social Security number.
