Americans must realize that one of the greatest battles for fair elections is which state has the cleanest voter rolls. Republican Texas Gov. Greg Abbott announced that the state removed over 1.1 million ineligible voters from its voter rolls, including over 6,500 non-citizens, of which approximately 1,930 have voted in previous elections, according to a press release on Monday. Texas found on top of non-citizens, over 6,000 people with felony convictions, almost 500,000 deceased people, and hundreds of thousands of voters who moved out of state were registered to vote in the state.
#9 Governor Abbott Announces Over 1 Million Ineligible Voters Removed From Voter Rolls - Gov Abbott Press Release, Dan Patrick on X
Governor Greg Abbott today announced that since signing Senate Bill 1 into law in 2021, Texas has removed over one million people from the state’s voter rolls, including people who moved out-of-state, are deceased, and are noncitizens. That removal process has been and will continue to be, ongoing. “Election integrity is essential to our democracy,” said Governor Abbott. “I have signed the strongest election laws in the nation to protect the right to vote and to crack down on illegal voting. These reforms have led to the removal of over one million ineligible people from our voter rolls in the last three years, including noncitizens, deceased voters, and people who moved to another state...#8 Republicans Sue Detroit for Hiring More Democratic Election Inspectors Than Republicans - Dana Afana for The Detroit Free Press, Jesse Watters, Larry Elder, and GOP on X
The Republican National Committee is back with another lawsuit alleging city officials, this time in Detroit, did not hire enough Republican election workers to help with the upcoming presidential election. The lawsuit calls for the city to appoint at least one election inspector from each major political party and "an equal number, as nearly as possible" in each precinct, and to implement a number of procedures for future elections that would identify an equal number of inspectors from both parties. The RNC previously sued Flint for a similar matter, claiming the city violated Michigan election law, but a judge dismissed the case...
#7 Harris’s Tax on Unrealized Gains Is Only the Tip of a $5 Trillion Tax Iceberg - Adam N. Michel for Cato, Sean Davis, Jason DeBolt, Jordan Schachtel, and Brian Nichols on X,
Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign recently confirmed that she supports all the nearly $5 trillion in tax increases included in President Biden’s 2025 budget proposal. Among the long list of tax hikes is a novel proposal to tax the unrealized gains of wealthy Americans. As many commentators have noted, such a tax would be economically destructive, but the fervor over this one bad idea has distracted from other more wide-reaching and even more economically damaging proposals...#6 Harris Campaign Releases a New Ad to Highlight Plans to Build 3 Million Homes and Reduce Inflation - Associated Press, WFLA News, Kimberly Klacik/Kamala Harris , and Melchizedek on X
Vice President Kamala Harris has a new advertising push to draw attention to her plan to build 3 million new homes over four years, a move designed to contain inflationary pressures that also draws a sharp contrast to Republican Donald Trump's approach. Harris, the Democratic nominee for president, highlights her plan in a new minute-long ad that uses her personal experience, growing up in rental housing while her mother had saved for a decade before she could buy a home. The ad targets voters in the swing states including Arizona and Nevada. Campaign surrogates are also holding 20 events this week focused on housing issues.

Four Massachusetts towns — Douglas, Oxford, Sutton, and Webster — have enacted a voluntary evening lockdown in an attempt to curb the spread of a potentially deadly mosquito-borne disease. The decision comes after the Massachusetts Department of Public Health (DPH) confirmed the first human case of Eastern equine encephalitis (EEE) since 2020 in Worcester County. On Wednesday, the Oxford Board of Health voted to support the recommendation for people to remain indoors after 6:00 p.m., effective immediately, through Sept. 30, according to a public health advisory shared with Fox News Digital...
#4 Anti-Israel Vandals Deface Cornell University on First Day of Classes - Carl Campanile for The New York Post, Judy Lucas, and Faculty Against Anti-Semitism Movement on X
Anti-Israel vandals defaced a building at Cornell University on the first day of classes Monday — smashing the glass of a doorway and scrawling hateful messages like “Blood is on your hands.” “We had to accept that the only way to make ourselves heard is by targeting the only thing the university administration truly cares about: property,” the vandals said in an anonymous statement to the Cornell Daily Sun, the student newspaper that broke the story. The vandals struck sometime overnight or in the early morning, shattering the glass at an entrance to Cornell’s Day Hall and spray-painting messages including “Israel bombs and Cornell pays.”
#3 The Healing Power of Sunlight - Tracy Beanz and Michelle Edwards for The HighWire, Rusty: Solar Powered, and Jessica Solce on X
Americans are bombarded with contaminants at every turn, from our toxic food supply to microplastics to the experimental and often deadly vaccines being forced upon us. Meanwhile—exaggerated by climate change propaganda diligently ushered in alongside the hyped-up COVID-19 pandemic that locked us indoors—we are told to avoid overexposure to the sun. Should we have safer…#2 Zuckerberg Says Biden Administration Pressured Meta to Censor COVID-19 Content - Patrick Bet-David, and Maze, New York Post, Mario Nawfal on X

In a letter dated Aug. 26, Zuckerberg told the judiciary committee of the U.S. House of Representatives that he regretted not speaking up about this pressure earlier, as well as some decisions the owner of Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp had made around removing certain content...#1 Judge Blocks Biden Administration From Granting Legal Status to Immigrant Spouses of U.S. Citizens - Camilo Montoya-Galvez for CBS News, Nick Sortor, Amanda, and Steven Miller on X
A federal judge in Texas on Monday temporarily blocked the Biden administration from granting legal status to unauthorized immigrants married to American citizens, granting a request from 16 Republican-led states who challenged the new policy. The order by District Court Judge J. Campbell Barker effectively brings to a halt a large immigration program that opened just last week to an estimated half a million immigrants living in the U.S. without legal status. While preliminary and temporary, the ruling is also an early blow to one of the two major moves taken by President Biden in June on immigration, a top campaign issue in the 2024 race for president...
