Cleta Mitchell

Not that people didn't try.

Matt Meck and the coalition, of course, Tina Peters, Cleta Mitchell, her whole IEN, everything Steve Stern and their team did, all of it.

But the reality is we are where we are right now.

It's all about grassroots getting out the vote because you can see in some places like in Texas, particularly they are getting out theirs.

And several states care about this and have encoded it in their law, but the feds never enforced it.

Cleta Mitchell, election integrity lawyer for Republicans, chaired it on saying...

He's very grateful to Secretary Hegseth, Pete Hegseth of the Department of War, for making sure that these revisions are taking a place and that foreign ballots can't be abused going forward.

The office that did this is the Federal Voting Assistance Program.

yes no i do i get what you're saying dude i get what you're saying i get what you're saying we can uh we can definitely continue the two months long hash out of uh of of fighting on a rigged battlefield but uh i'm i'm not opposed to it i'm more interested in this stuff here rather than uh you know voting for susan collins because she has an r next to her name just the news who counts as an overseas voter pentagon rewrites the uh answer ahead of the election the federal voting assistance program fvap released a policy paper stating that u.s citizens born abroad who have never lived in the u.s are not eligible to vote under uakava uh which was a 1986 law drafted to protect the voting rights of active military members and citizens residing outside the u.s the reversal ends the federal postcard application federal write-in absentee ballot the electronic ballot delivery and the 45-day early ballot mailing So basically, and I didn't think this was a big deal, but basically there was this big thing during the 2024 election, I remember Ash and I covered this, where like Michigan was like, oh yeah, we're allowing people, if you live overseas, you can go online and register and do all your registration online and you don't have to have an address in Michigan.

It's like, well, how can you vote in Michigan elections and vote for Michigan representation when you don't have a physical address in Michigan? well now they're taking a step further and if you've never been in the united states but you're born to you know u.s parents and they're overseas as expats and you somehow you know you become a citizen even though you've never lived here you can't vote here until you've lived here and i love that It says Cleta Mitchell, an attorney who specializes in campaign finance, election ethics laws, referred to a seemingly obscure federal statute that defines an overseas voter by the place where they were domiciled, quote, before leaving the United States and quote.

Thus, a person who has never lived in the US cannot specify any particular state and is not permitted to register and vote.

The 38 states that permit in part or in full so-called never resided voting may still allow such a person to vote, but they must go through the regular state absentee procedures, not UOCAVA.

Not that people didn't try.

Matt Meck and the coalition, of course, Tina Peters, Cleta Mitchell, her whole IEN, everything Steve Stern and their team did, all of it.

But the reality is we are where we are right now.

It's all about grassroots getting out the vote because you can see in some places like in Texas, particularly they are getting out theirs.

There are believed to be as many as 56 P.E.A.D.s that have never been seen by the American people, the authors noted, and They apply to such matters as suspension of habeas corpus, martial law, censorship, the detention of citizens considered dangerous, and the seizure of property and communications.

All of which, by the way, have been discussed more or less openly by the likes of Sidney Powell, Tina Peters, Cleta Mitchell, really, to some extent, Ed Martin, for sure, you know, maybe yes, maybe no, in terms of the Attorney General.

Uh, been a couple other people.

Who else have we, I've like routinely forgotten to add to this list.

Oh, but I certainly the, my pillow guy, but he is a little bit of a little less influenced than these other people.

But I think maybe I kept forgetting to say Cleta Mitchell.

Anyway, uh, they add a time magazine investigation in 2024, uh, described the physical object, a book of drafts kept in a safe on White House grounds with some blanks left for the date and the circumstances.

The career official who kept it called it the Mad Libs for the most extreme measures of government and added, Trump's going to be surrounded by a set of people that would say, you have the power to do this.

She is now the deputy assistant of election integrity in the Department of Homeland Security.

She worked closely with an attorney named Cleta Mitchell, who was behind the fake elector scheme.

That woman now has a nonprofit that is filling the coffers, litigation coffers, in order to protest whatever outcomes are coming up in the upcoming midterms.

She also has paid $72,000 to a consultant firm owned by Honey.

Patrick Weaver, Pete Hegseth, deputy chief of staff, also a denier.

Marcy McCarthy, working in the Defense Department, chief engagement, another denier.

ally of Cleta Mitchell.

So these same people from, you know, who had major roles in the election denial movement in 2020 are now very much embedded in our key departments, defense, FBI, Homeland Security.
