Sentencing For Arizona Ballot Trafficker Pushed Forward After NEW Footage Released – New Hearing Set For July 7th
A Yuma County Superior Court Judge recently set a new sentencing hearing for San Luis ballot Mule, Gadsden Elementary School District Board Member and Ex-Mayor of San Luis Guillermina Fuentes. Fuentes pleaded guilty last month to her role in a sophisticated ballot trafficking ring during the 2020 Primary Election in Arizona. She was caught forging signatures and trafficking ballots in August 2020 by San Luis residents who filmed her using undercover cameras. Arizona State Senate candidate Gary Snyder and San Luis Resident David Lara witnessed this voter fraud in their community, and they busted these criminals. Their work, which resulted in two indictments for illegal ballot trafficking, was featured in True the Vote‘s and Dinesh D’Souza’s “2000 Mules” documentary.
As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, this evidence was delivered to the Arizona Attorney General, RINO Mark Brnovich, months before the General Election, and he waited until December to file the charges. Brnovich apparently let them steal the general election. In March, Alma Juarez pleaded guilty to one count of ballot abuse after admitting to police that Guillermina Fuentes handed her ballots with instructions to deposit them in a dropbox. Fuentes pleaded not guilty; however, after the release of “2000 Mules” featuring whistleblower testimony from San Luis, Fuentes changed her plea to guilty. Finally, after over one year of delay, Fuentes pleaded guilty to one felony count of ballot abuse after three additional felony counts were dismissed. The Gateway Pundit reported that Fuentes took the plea agreement without forgery and conspiracy charges.
Fuentes got off with a slap on the wrist because the prosecutors failed to prove forgery and conspiracy. Despite having video evidence of Fuentes sealing envelopes to be trafficked and forging signatures, for some reason, the prosecutors decided not to show it. As The Gateway Pundit reported, it appears that the Attorney General doctored the footage he was given and redacted the part where Fuentes forged ballot signatures. The full unredacted clip was recently revealed by Arizona Gubernatorial Candidate Kari Lake and others at Jovan Hutton Pulitzer’s Kinematic Artifact Detection analysis presentation in Arizona.

Posting this here, because Texas defending the southern border is definitely politics, and not humor or satire.
If you dislike Pepe the Frog, I apologize in advance.
If you dislike Pepe the Frog, I apologize in advance.
Further regarding Texas' actions today:
The Built-In Self-Help Provision in the Constitution to Repel Invasions
Unlike the other two guarantees in Article IV, Section 4, the federal guarantee of protection against invasion is accompanied in the Constitution with an affirmative acknowledgment of the power retained by every state to repel invasions themselves. That power is found in Article I, Section 10, Clause 3 of the Constitution.
Article I, Section 10, Clause 3 states:
“No State shall, without the Consent of Congress, lay any Duty of Tonnage, keep Troops, or Ships of War in time of Peace, enter into any Agreement or Compact with another State, or with a foreign Power, or engage in War, unless actually invaded, or in such imminent Danger as will not admit of delay.” (Emphasis added.)
It is clear that the Guarantee Clause is intended, among other things, to guarantee each and every state federal protection against invasion, and that the current circumstances related to the southern border of the United States would qualify as an invasion from which the federal government is failing to provide its Constitutionally obligated protection. Based upon that conclusion, invaded states may undertake their own efforts to repel the current invasion using their authority to do so under Article I, Section 10, Clause 3 of the Constitution.

Oil from U.S. reserves sent overseas as gasoline prices stay high
More than 5 million barrels of oil that were part of a historic U.S. emergency reserves release to lower domestic fuel prices were exported to Europe and Asia last month, according to data and sources, even as U.S. gasoline and diesel prices hit record highs.

Pete is a danger. He is an Obama like speaker. And all the Left Stream Media will rally him as if he is Obama's twin. But he is as far left as Obama if not more.

The majority of California voters are so shallow and obsessed with virtue signaling, that they continue to elect and support scummy politicians and initiatives to their own detriment.

In Case You Missed These
Dear Patriots,
Here are several subjects you might be interested in learning more about, from a perspective you likely will not get from Fake News media.
NOTE: In our ongoing efforts to improve your enjoyment and navigation of these newsletters, beginning today:
Our featured articles will all be linked to the DefendingTheRepublic.org Home Page.
There they will be available in full from their original sources.
One click takes you to all the articles.
As always, all DTR newsletters going back to April 2021 are archived on our website.
1- While we were disappointed in the "Remain in Mexico" decision, the decision against the EPA has possible sweeping implications for the entire government which has vastly over-stepped it's authority. Overall, it was an excellent Supreme Court session.
Red State
Supreme Court Delivers a Great Win Curtailing the Power of Government in EPA Case
QUOTE: This term of the Supreme Court has been a big one for Constitutionally-based decisions and here's another big one.
The Supreme Court sharply curtailed the power of the EPA to regulate greenhouse-gas emissions that cause climate change. In a 6-3 ruling written by Chief Justice John Roberts, the court sided with conservative states and fossil-fuel companies in adopting a narrow reading of the Clean Air Act.
The Court found that Congress had not authorized the EPA to induce a shift toward cleaner energy sources.
This has a lot of implications for other efforts by the Biden Administration to impose its will, without Congressional authority.
2- This type of evidence has been conveniently overlooked by the January 6 Committee.

Internal Memo Reveals Capitol Police Were Warned BLM from Baltimore Was Bussing in Rioters Disguised as Trump Supporters on Jan. 6
QUOTE: It was all a setup. Trump supporters were framed by FBI and government operatives and BLM and Antifa terrorists.
A leaked internal memo revealed that the US Capitol Police intel unit warned that BLM from Baltimore was bussing in rioters for January 6th protests.
According to the memo the rioters were going to blend in.
Via investigative reporter Paul Sperry:
"BLM/Antifa will wear MAGA hats, wear camo, and attempt to blend in with MAGA crowd" so violence blamed on Trump supporters attending Trump rally
This has been widely discussed by officials and in reports on this website.
The Democrat-media complex has totally ignored eyewitness accounts detailing how black bloc Antifa terrorists infiltrated the peaceful MAGA demonstrations. According to a former FBI agent on the ground at the US Capitol, at least one bus load of Antifa goons infiltrated the Trump rally as part of a false flag operation. Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) entered into the record explosive testimony of eyewitness accounts from Michael Waller detailing how he saw "agents-provocateurs" at the Capitol.
3- Please read this detailed account of the efforts made to influence the 2020 election.

FOIAs Reveal Progressive Money Fueling FBI, DOJ, Leftist Activist and Election Official Coordination
QUOTE: A strange constellation has emerged through public records requests of coordination between progressive funders, federal authorities, corporations, state election officials, and leftist organizations.
The story begins with a series of freedom of information act requests aimed at a number of states to see if any election officials are tempted to apply for now-illegal money from the Mark Zuckerberg-funded Center for Technology and Civic Life. Such grants and the wild expenditures of these funds altered the course of the 2020 election.
The FOIAs were submitted by the Public Interest Legal Foundation—with which I am associated—and were aimed broadly at election officials across the United States.
Since Trump's 2016 victory, this fluid consortium has built structures that match powerful funding—with fringe ideological activists, with government offices—in an effort to create a narrative that nothing was ever wrong with American elections. These structures also reorient the administration of elections in ways that benefit progressives, such as wide use of automatic mail voting.
Extraordinary efforts were made in 2020 to claim mail voting was problem-free despite the evidence and despite elections in New Jersey being overturned because of mail ballot fraud.
QUOTE: All of this is just a first taste at understanding the behind-the-curtain relationships developing between progressive deep pockets, leftist activists, vote fraud deniers, federal officials with prosecutorial power, and state and local election officials.
This effort started after the 2016 election, and notably focused on many of the bluish swing states that Donald Trump won in 2016 but lost in 2020. Whether that was the plan or just a side benefit of the Denver confab and Democracy Fund plans remains to be seen.
4-The wonderful Molly McCann on her America's Moment podcast explains many things! You can always find Molly's most recent podcast at our website.
America's Moment at DTR
Episode #26 The Political Lessons of Dobbs
QUOTE: Molly discusses Dobbs and how this pro-life victory underscores the importance of fighting at every level to reclaim our country. Plus, she discusses Paul Clement's departure from Kirkland and the opportunity for America First attorneys, and Sidney Powell's clash with the Texas Bar over her license.

Limiting the overreach of the Federal government
Please keep in mind, there have been two recent decisions to seriously curtail and rein in the overreach:
These two cases alone establish a VERY FIRM precedent for shutting down or severely limiting most of these greedy consumers of our tax dollars.

This is the same guy that recently stated a 'climate apocalypse' is coming thanks to Republicans and the Supreme Court.
Another example of why the opinions of these media darling 'experts' should be met with skepticism.

So sorry to "mis-quote" you. I simply added the bolded adjective as my personal opinion.
These liars / scammers sell you their experts, then sell you their problems, then sell you their so-called solutions.
It's time to ignore them completely.
