Congratulations to Senator Lindsey Graham of the Great State of South Carolina on his BIG WIN tonight. With almost 60% of the vote against a large field of very capable candidates, there will be no runoff. Now Lindsey will be able to devote his time to passing the desperately needed, and long overdue, SAVE AMERICA ACT! President DJT
🚨RACE CALLED—Change will be on the ballot this November!
Thank you to every single one of you in this great state. I am running for governor to be of service to you—to make California the greatest place in the world and to restore the California Dream.
Change is Coming ☀️👊
@kristenmag@Elex_Michaelson 100’s of people were paid to harvest in the streets. blank everything, filling out fictitious addresses, etc...
On top of already $50M in printing costs for mailed ballots...
@RoxanneHoge@DaneeRowe Crying out loud, Roxanne. Voting day was 2Jun26 up to 8PM. Maybe if we were in 2017, there would be less-blurry boundaries on that.
@paulmitche11@RoKhanna Being disenfranchised is a lagging indicator of a broken system. The wrong people are on the wrong bus, in the wrong seat folks.
And it will continue to fail until change happens!
Thank you for saying this.
I am also hearing this kind of thing—people telling me they’d be a sucker to ever vote in local elections again.
The only way to rebuild trust—and prove there’s nothing to hide—is to make the elections as timely, transparent and comprehensible as possible
I have just been informed by our Great Military that last night the Iranians shot down one of our highly sophisticated Apache Helicopters while patrolling over the Strait of Hormuz. There were two pilots involved, both are safe and uninjured. Nevertheless, the United States must, of necessity, respond to this attack. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Does City Hall VALUE transparency, accountability, & oversight over nearly $45 BILLION ANNUALLY that gets spent of YOUR TAX DOLLARS? 🤔
We'll find out Friday!

I see the concern here, and it’s valid. California’s vote-by-mail system, combined with legal ballot harvesting, does create meaningful vulnerabilities. Steps like third-party collection of ballots, allowances for witness signatures when a voter “can’t sign,” reliance on handwritten dates instead of clear postmarks, and the fact that ballots are separated from their signed envelopes (to protect secrecy) all make full end-to-end verification difficult. Once the ballot is removed from the return envelope, there’s no practical way to trace it back to the individual voter for auditing purposes. There are documented cases of people being paid to register (including involving homeless individuals), and the system has relatively few hard guardrails — no voter ID requirement, broad harvesting rules, and signature matching that relies on human judgment. While officials emphasize curing processes and signature comparisons, the structure does open doors that don’t exist in stricter systems. This isn’t about claiming every election is stolen. It’s about recognizing that the current setup in California makes fraud easier than it should be and harder to detect at scale. That’s why growing numbers of people are calling for reforms - better chain-of-custody rules, limits on harvesting, stronger ID/verification standards, and improved auditability. We should be able to have high turnout and high confidence in the process. Right now, too many Californians feel the system falls short on the second part. That doubt is reasonable.
For those who still can’t see how the CA scheme works…
Step 1: pay homeless people to register to vote
Step 2: send their blank ballots to central nonprofit
Step 3: mark ballots to boost candidates
Step 4: have witness sign instead of voter
Step 5: if late, hand write date instead of postmark
Step 6: officially count these ballots since witness signatures and handwritten dates can’t be verified
Does this happen?
Absolutely.
Is it legal?
Depends.
But there are no guardrails to prevent these loopholes from being used for voter fraud. No way to audit either.
Once the ballot has been removed from the signature envelope there’s no way to know who the vote went to.
So here we are…the system opens the door wide open to fraud with abysmal oversight. A common pattern in blue states.
The next time you hear people insist ‘But CA verifies every signature! There’s zero voter fraud!’ just know they have no idea what they’re talking about.
Or they do and they’re lying.
Apart from his $200 million failed campaign for governor, Tom Steyer is about to ruin the World Cup!
His union is going on strike, targeting Team USA's first game at SoFi Stadium.
Tom: you're not going to be governor - but could you ask your union pals to call off this strike?
