The Heritage Foundation Oversight Project Uncovers Illegal Aliens Registered to Vote in Arizona – RedState

🚨BREAKING: Non-Citizens in AZ Admit Being Registered to VOTE🚨

Footage obtained by @realmuckraker shows that at one apartment complex in Phoenix, AZ, 6 non-citizens admitted to being registered to vote.

Non-citizens expressed support for Kamala Harris, and some plan to vote. Show more

6:56 AM · Sep 26, 2024 //

The non-citizens interviewed claimed that they were registered to vote at grocery stores, and others said that door knockers visited their apartment complex, soliciting their registration.

After that initial sweep, The Oversight Project attempted to follow up to locate these individuals on the voter rolls. However, they could not be found. //

From the California playbook, where this type of election fraud is rampant, it is not uncommon to use legitimate addresses, with different names and identities, to pad the voter rolls. Arizona seems to be replicating this successful overwhelm to weight the scales for 2024. //

What is clear is that the leftist defense of an "honor system" for voter registration has left open massive vulnerabilities for foreign participation in American elections.

The extent to which those vulnerabilities will be exploited may determine the 2024 election.
6:56 AM · Sep 26, 2024 //

Mike Howell, executive director of the Oversight Project at The Heritage Foundation, said,

It is obvious to me and other reasonable Americans that the left has decided that the only way they can maintain power is through illegal votes. If they have any interest in legitimacy, they need to immediately abandon this anti-American strategy.

This is a feature and not a bug, so don't count on the Left pulling back or changing their tactics. Dependent upon what happens on November 5, 2024, at the rate this is going, we may never see another "free and fair" election in our lifetimes.

Upcoming SCOTUS Conference Could Strengthen Public Worker Protections – RedState
thumbnail

Intuitively, court employees in California, an in-home caregiver in Washington State, and public employees in Oregon have little in common.

But each is among a list of public servants whose credible allegations of government union misconduct will be reviewed by the United States Supreme Court during its opening conference on Monday, September 30.

In 2018, the Supreme Court’s decision in Janus v. AFSCME held that the First Amendment prohibits government employers from requiring public employees to pay mandatory union fees. Before a public servant becomes a union member, the Court ruled, an employee must clearly and affirmatively consent to dues payments.

But in the years since Janus, Big Labor has resorted to narrow dues revocation windows, forged membership cards, and other coercive habits to counteract a downturn in union membership.

China Wants Dominance in the Pacific - but Its Latest Attack Sub Has Sunk. They Are Trying to Cover Up. – RedState

China is, to be sure, a nation with big ambitions. They want a big, ocean-spanning navy like a wolf wants a sheep, and they seem to be determined to get one. But they are going to have to step up their game. The country has been beset by quality problems in everything from shipbuilding to buildings to electric scooters, cars, and cell phones. Until they figure out their quality problems and learn to develop tech of their own that is on a par with Japan, Taiwan, Korea, and the United States, we will continue to see incidents like this laughable failure of their vaunted new killer submarine - that sank alongside the pier. //

As a retired Navy O-6, I would say Ward needs to get his stuff a little more together. (1) The picture in the article is of a ballistic missile sub, not an attack boat. (2) The attack sub was under construction, which means it sank while in the hands of the shipyard, probably without navy crew. Industrial accidents occur---we've had some bad ones when ships were in the yard, including fires and floodings. In the early '60's the attack carrier Constellation had a major fire while under construction which delayed its completion for more than a year. Did that man we didn't have an effective navy at the time? (3) The Chinese navy is much more than a "frigate navy." Their first supercarrier is at sea, and that gives them three afloat, with one carrier recently at sea in the South China Sea and off the Philippines with it's battlegroup. (Admittedly, they have a lot to learn about carrier ops.) However, they're projected to have five or six carriers by the end of the decade. That's as many as we have in Pacific. The Type 55 cruiser or destroyer leader (depending on how you classify it) is being built in numbers (Eight active, eight building.) Meanwhile, we're decommissioning our 30+ year old Ticonderoga Aegis cruisers without replacement. Their Type 52D missile destroyer is quite comparable to our Burke Class or the British Type 45 in size and capability; it's been built in numbers (25 active) and production continues. (4) The USN would love to have some frigates---we're struggling to build the new Constellation Class after the fiasco of the Littoral Combat Ships which were supposed to replace our once robust---now non-existent---frigate force. (5) The Chinese do have a good replenishment capability---their task groups operate in the Indian Ocean, the South Atlantic, and the North Pacific with replenishment ships in company. They're also acquiring foreign ports for use by their deployed squadrons. (Meanwhile, our carrier strike group in the mid-east is without a replenishment oiler because it went aground and is out of service while the navy is struggling to get a replacement on scene.) Our replenishment capability is a mere shadow of what it was in the cold war due to "Peace Dividend" budget cuts in last three decades. (6) In any fast developing conflict over Taiwan or dispute of the South China Sea, China would have home court advantage and a massive advantage in numbers over what our 7th Fleet could muster. The truth is, in the last three decades the Chines navy has made massive strides in numbers, the quality of it's equipment and its operational expertise at sea. Meanwhile, the USN is undeniability in decline: our numbers are diminishing and in recent years we've had a rash of collisions and groundings not to mention poor material readiness of our ships due to industrial maintenance deficiencies. In summary, we underestimate the PLAN at our peril.

NIST Recommends Some Common-Sense Password Rules - Schneier on Security

NIST Recommends Some Common-Sense Password Rules

NIST’s second draft of its “SP 800-63-4“—its digital identify guidelines—finally contains some really good rules about passwords:

The following requirements apply to passwords:

  1. lVerifiers and CSPs SHALL require passwords to be a minimum of eight characters in length and SHOULD require passwords to be a minimum of 15 characters in length.
  2. Verifiers and CSPs SHOULD permit a maximum password length of at least 64 characters.
  3. Verifiers and CSPs SHOULD accept all printing ASCII [RFC20] characters and the space character in passwords.
  4. Verifiers and CSPs SHOULD accept Unicode [ISO/ISC 10646] characters in passwords. Each Unicode code point SHALL be counted as a signgle character when evaluating password length.
  5. Verifiers and CSPs SHALL NOT impose other composition rules (e.g., requiring mixtures of different character types) for passwords.
  6. Verifiers and CSPs SHALL NOT require users to change passwords periodically. However, verifiers SHALL force a change if there is evidence of compromise of the authenticator.
  7. Verifiers and CSPs SHALL NOT permit the subscriber to store a hint that is accessible to an unauthenticated claimant.
  8. Verifiers and CSPs SHALL NOT prompt subscribers to use knowledge-based authentication (KBA) (e.g., “What was the name of your first pet?”) or security questions when choosing passwords.
    Verifiers SHALL verify the entire submitted password (i.e., not truncate it).

Hooray.

Exactly one year ago, Mayor Eric Adams admitted (off-script) that migrants are "destroying NYC"

He was just indicted by Biden-Harris

President Trump on Eric Adams: "I watched about a year ago when he talked about how the illegal migrants are hurting our city... and I said, you know what, he'll be indicted within a year — and I was exactly right."

5:33 PM · Sep 26, 2024 //

Billionaire hedge fund manager Bill Ackman says it looks pretty darn suspicious, writing, “Having witnessed the weaponization of our country’s prosecutorial resources, sadly I have to say I am that much more skeptical when indictments are announced against someone whose views are not welcomed by the party in charge.” //

Eric Adams may be corrupt—but isn’t it notable that the Feds suddenly turned up the heat when he criticized Biden-Harris?

It could be that they’re pursuing justice. It could be they’re persecuting Adams for political reasons. There’s a third answer, too, however: both things could be true.

In the end, though, we’re left with a sobering reality: the fact that so many are even asking this question shows that thinking Americans have lost all faith in our DOJ. //

If Mayor Adams is guilty as charged over a 10 year old "bribery" case, but took 10 years to put together, that is proof of "justice" being served? That means this "case" started under Obama!
Our DOJ, is renamed DOIJ - Department of Injustice.

USS Thresher, SSN-593, was the first sub in its class. It failed during deep sea tests on April 10, 1963 with the loss of all on board. Building these boats requires the utmost in quality control...something the slave labor force at China's shipyards are probably not able to deliver.

The Thresher incident led to significant changes in the design, construction, and operation of submarines. The lessons learned from the Thresher incident have had a profound impact on submarine safety and have helped to prevent future tragedies. These lessons continue to be applied to the design, construction, and operation of submarines today. //

This.
A simple brazed pipe joint behind a reactor control panel failed, causing the reactor to scram (shut down), She slowly sank stern first because the emergency ballast blow system had a fatal flaw in it.

Point is, all took was one bad pipe joint.

My dad served on Plunger, her sister. They were tasked with developing tactics for this new breed of killer, and killers they would have been, because they were just that far advanced. The Soviets would have never stood a chance.

Also, a couple critical factors contributing to the tragedy was the presence of moisture in the high-pressure air system. This moisture condensed and froze within the lines leading to the main ballast tanks, preventing them from being blown to the surface. Additionally, when the reactor scrammed, the main steam supply lines to the engine room automatically shut down. This prevented the crew from using ship's power to drive the submarine to the surface.

Despite the crew's efforts and constant communication with the Thresher during sea trials, there was ultimately little that could be done to prevent the disaster.

They fixed the moisture issue and changed stopped automatically closing of the main steam supply values after the incident. //

Yup. They had a small debiris screen on the end of the air piping feeding the tanks, and it would ice up because of the moisture.

I forgot which sub almost killed themselves finding that out that problem in the investigation. They almost went down too, or maybe just a harrowing experience, I can’t remember. //

By the way...look at the hull planform of their nukes. All kinds of sharp angles guarenteed to make more noise than my oldest's speakers set to eleventy. I'm told that their boats are god-awful noisy. Not a great survival strategy at sea.

2nd Amendment? Or 2nd American Revolution? - American Free News Network

The Shot Heard ‘Round The World.

On a cool Massachusetts morning, April 19, 1775, a group of farmers, tradesmen, and other “Minutemen” led by Captain John Parker, gathered on Lexington Commons to…express umbrage at the British Crown’s illegal attempt to confiscate Colonial Weapons.

“Stand your ground. Don’t fire unless fired upon, but if they mean to have a war let it begin here,” declared Parker.

No one knows who fired the first shot, but at the end of the battle, eight Americans lay dead and as many wounded. This came to be known as the “shot heard ‘round the World” and the de facto beginning of the American Revolution.

Fast forward to today—current Vice President and Democrat nominee for President, Kamala Harris again voices a desire to violate an enumerated constitutional right.

The Second Amendment, arguably written with Lexington in mind, is still the only one we need “permission” to exercise and is still under constant attack by the left. That’s generating backlash among popularly elected local Sheriffs, reports The Wall Street Journal. From the article.

The “Second Amendment sanctuary” movement has taken hold in more than 100 counties in several states, including New Mexico and Illinois, where local law-enforcement and county leaders are saying they won’t enforce new legislation that infringes on the constitutional right to bear arms.

This isn’t a “one-of,” issue—we’re talking about over 100 counties across several states. This indicates widespread popular support, support that is galvanizing locally elected Law Enforcement Officials to take notice—and take action. //

Predictably, there has been the mandatory hue and cry from the left, declaring those Sheriffs to be lawless rogues. Strangely enough, this from locales that support sanctuary cities for illegal aliens. Of course, their screeching is without basis. First of all, the local Sheriffs are on pretty solid Constitutional ground.

How Long Does Canned Food Last? Expiration Dates on Canned Food

While canned goods past their "best-by" date may not taste optimal, there's no real health risk in consuming canned goods as long as they remain in good condition. Here's why: The food in the container is commercially sterile and a vacuum seal prevents any new bacteria from getting in, so it will not spoil.

Leftists Make Ridiculous Argument About X Suspending Journo Klippenstein, Who Doxxed JD Vance – RedState
thumbnail

At the center of this controversy is Klippenstein’s decision to release the Trump campaign’s vetting documents on Vance, which included the senator’s personal information, including emails, phone numbers, and addresses. The documents were obtained by hackers on behalf of the Islamic Republic of Iran, which means there's a possibility that Klippenstein may be (purposely or accidentally) doing Tehran’s bidding for political purposes.

In response, X suspended Klippenstein’s account, which has angered folks on the left. They argue that this decision is hypocritical. They also claim folks on the right who support the move are also being hypocritical because of their opposition to the platform’s decision to suppress the Hunter Biden laptop story. //

What these folks are missing – or deliberately leaving out – is that X adopted a policy in March that disallows “doxxing,” which occurs when someone exposes personal information without the person’s consent: //

Under the previous management, the laptop story was suppressed for a different reason: The company claimed it was information that was hacked by Russians. This contention was later exposed as one in a long list of left-wing hoaxes.

What is also interesting about this story is that the doxxing of Vance was done using information coming from Iranian hackers, which clearly violates the platform’s rules. //
