NRSC Seeks FEC Probe Into Alaska Senate Scheme
The National Republican Senatorial Committee has filed a complaint with the Federal Election Commission alleging that Alaska Senate candidate Daniel J. Sullivan and a Democrat strategist engaged in a coordinated effort to deceive voters and influence Alaska’s 2026 U.S. Senate race in favor of former Rep. Mary Peltola, D-Alaska.
The complaint, filed under federal election law prohibiting fraudulent misrepresentation of campaign authority, asks the FEC to investigate whether the Petersburg, Alaska, resident deliberately launched a Senate bid designed to capitalize on sharing the same name as incumbent Republican Sen. Dan Sullivan.
The NRSC alleges the effort was intended to confuse voters and siphon support from the incumbent.
According to the complaint, Daniel J. Sullivan filed to run as a Republican despite a history of supporting Democrat candidates, including donations to Peltola and other Democrats.
The filing includes records showing contributions to Peltola, the Alaska Democratic Party, former Ohio Senate candidate Tim Ryan, and other Democrat campaigns.
The NRSC also points to similarities between the challenger's campaign branding and Sen. Sullivan's official campaign materials.
Attachments included with the complaint show side-by-side comparisons of logos and websites, which the committee argues are designed to create confusion among voters.
A key piece of evidence cited by Republicans is a press release announcing the challenger's candidacy.
According to the complaint, metadata from the document identifies Democrat strategist Amber Lee as its author.
The NRSC alleges Lee's consulting firm has received payments from Vote Alaska Before Party PAC, a super PAC that supported Peltola.
"Mary Peltola got caught red-handed in a desperate attempt to save her Alaska campaign, and the FEC must immediately investigate Fraud Dan Sullivan and Peltola's supporter, Amber Lee, for their deceptive scheme," NRSC Regional Press Secretary Nick Puglia said in a statement.
The controversy has drawn national attention.
Sen. Sullivan has publicly accused his namesake challenger of attempting to trick voters, while Alaska Republican Lt. Gov. Nancy Dahlstrom, who oversees state elections, has announced an investigation into the candidacy, according to The Independent.
Daniel J. Sullivan has denied any coordination with Peltola, her campaign, or Democrat organizations.
He said he has had "zero, none, zilch" contact with Democrat operatives and insisted his campaign is legitimate, calling his candidacy "my choice," The Independent reported.
Peltola's campaign and Alaska Democratic Party officials have likewise denied involvement.
The NRSC previously urged Alaska election officials to remove the challenger from the ballot, arguing that Alaskans deserve a fair election free from efforts to manipulate voter confusion.
The FEC has not yet announced whether it will open a formal investigation.

James Talarico Attempts a Full Meat Lover Rebrand—Brandon Gill's Response Leaves Him Well Done
 |
With Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton winning the GOP nomination for Senate in the Lone Star State's primary runoff on May 26th, the general election campaign season officially kicked off. Paxton, as RedState reported, immediately jabbed at his Democrat opponent, Texas state Rep. James Talarico, reminding voters of some of the bat-crap crazy things Talarico has said and done during his time as a state lawmaker. "This is Texas. This is not" an ad released the day after his primary victory emphasized, while showing what makes Texas great (its hard-working people) and what doesn't (Democrats like Talarico). It was perfect timing considering clips from an interview Talarico did with CBS News were released that same day, with the man Paxton has nicknamed "Low-T" trying to play clean up on his admittedly "cringey comments" by noting that "There are some statements that I've made that I certainly regret." READ MORE: Let's Go: Ken Paxton Opens General Election Campaign With a Not-So-Gentle Message for James Talarico Among the more infamous statements Talarico has made at various points in his political career was when he was running for reelection in 2022 and declared his campaign a "non-meat campaign." They were "only buying vegan products," he pointed out, while stressing that "it was now existential that we try to reduce our meat consumption," which he said was necessary to "fight climate change." In a state like Texas, where meat is king, those types of comments will definitely come back to haunt you, which happened to Talarico to the extent that Democrats rushed to post pictures of him eating what we were told was meat, while of course wearing a Texas flag-themed button-down shirt. Though that fell flat, Talarico continues to try to rebrand himself as a proud Texas meat lover, as evidenced by a recent trip to Smokey Joe's BBQ restaurant in Dallas. The goal of the trip, Talarico said, was to turn a negative around on himself and highlight what he called the bigger issue:

Brandon Gill (TX-26) had the perfect response, comparing how Talarico looked to the expression on Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey's (D) face as he struggled to eat a Somali dish last fall in support of his city's Somali community: Never change, James Talarico. Never change. |
Spencer Pratt Is Still in the Fight, and He'll Do More Than Get by With a Lot of Help From His Friends
 |
As RedState reported on Sunday, Los Angeles City Councilwoman and mayoral candidate Nityha Raman
pulled ahead of former reality-TV star Spencer Pratt
in the June 2 primary election, prompting Decision Desk HQ and other outlets to declare Raman the second-place finisher in the L.A. mayoral race. This means Raman has been declared the other person on the November ballot to compete with incumbent Mayor Karen Bass. What a choice: Progressive Democrat vs. Socialist Democrat, and many Angelenos and others in the country (including our president) are crying foul. After all, if California Governor Gavin Newsom (D) is going to make a big deal about COUNTING. EVERY. VOTE, and the results do not have to be certified until July 2, then declaring the third-place opponent the winner after she moves ahead a few percentage points seems a bit like jumping the gun... or embedding a narrative. As Capitol correspondent Ashley Zavala has documented, there are still 2.4 million ballots left to be counted, and L.A. County has the largest percentage of those ballots. So, is it any wonder that citizens of Los Angeles who supported change and voted for Pratt feel blindsided and more than a little suspicious of this massive surge for a candidate who was behind six days ago?
Despite the entire Democrat and DSA apparatus trying to scream there is no voter fraud and that it's time to throw the Pratt campaign in the trash heap of failed experiments by MAGA and right-wingers, Spencer Pratt has no plans to concede. He wants every vote counted, just like the benighted Gov. Hair Gel. Morning Minute: If It Looks Like a Duck... Latinos Por Pratt has backed this candidate from Day 1 and is also behind some of the viral media content that has gotten the nation to pay attention to this movement. Latinos Por Pratt are imploring people on the ground in Los Angeles, and those outside, for some assistance in helping Pratt ensure the vote count is complete and accurate.
Data analysts and coders can be anywhere on the planet, and many of these digital warriors are not only collaborative but effective with their methods and information gathering. The beauty of people on the ground in Los Angeles is that addresses, coupled with images, can go into the record for legal verification and be used in the audit. Latinos Los Pratt is also building evidence for a legal defense. So, no matter how Democrats and the Left wish to spin this Los Angeles mayor's race, it's not over until it's over. Thanks to California and its machinations with the vote count, Spencer Pratt is still in the fight. |
Look at This CNN Host's Face When John Fetterman Said This About Graham Platner
Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) isn’t a fan of Graham Platner, the Maine Democrat running to unseat incumbent Republican Sen. Susan Collins. He’s faced endless bad press due to his Nazi tattoos, Reddit posts, sexting scandal, and now allegations of emotional abuse from multiple women. Last Friday, Fetterman discussed these topics with CNN’s Kasie Hunt, who appeared visibly uncomfortable. It was when the Pennsylvania Democrat brought up Platner possibly posting pictures of his genitals that things went off the rails a bit (via Overton):

It was when Fetterman dropped the term “dick pics” that Hunt began to unravel.
HUNT: “Let me follow up on something you said there, because I don’t think that we have this reporting.”
“Did you say or...did Senate Democrats discuss Graham Platner posting pictures of his...uh...you called it his dick...at...did you discuss this in a lunch?”
FETTERMAN: “No. What I’m saying is, is that he has been sending sexually explicit kinds of messaging with women, and I assume over the ten years that he was a membership in that....”
HUNT: “Okay, so you’re assuming that that’s what he was doing. I just...that’s what I just wanted to follow up on, because if that’s something that is in active conversation among Senate Democrats...that I think would be of interest to our audience.”
FETTERMAN: “A guy, a guy that he talked about and described, uh, dicks, you know, he, he’s already done that in his, his writings.”
“And when he would used to sit in the porta potties, you know, he would say that he would want to masturbate in them and describe those things.”
“So, uh, I mean, he has very interesting kinds of uhh...”
…
HUNT: “I’m glad my children aren’t old enough to watch this show, I gotta be honest.”
Fetterman’s new nickname for Platner is “captain dick pick” (via NY Post):
Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) is eviscerating his fellow Democrats for defending the “mess” of Graham Platner’s candidacy in Maine following mounting allegations of sexual misconduct.
“Every Democrat knows P-Hustle has Nazi ink, was Captain D–k-Pic on Kik, abusive towards women and slandered American soldiers online,” Fetterman told The Post Friday.
Members of his party are choosing instead “to suppress their gag reflex for the ‘greater good,'” he added, noting Platner’s upcoming Senate primary election on Tuesday, where the Maine candidate is expected to come out on top.
“P-Hustle?” Fetterman had responded when asked by reporters on Capitol Hill Thursday about the embattled Democratic candidate, who was recently revealed to have maintained an account by that name on the private messaging app Kik, which has been accused of enabling sexual predators and groomers.
That should be put on a t-shirt.
Republican Advances to General Election in California Governor's Race
 |
Republican Steve Hilton will advance in the general election to become California’s next governor, Decision Desk HQ projected on Monday night. Hilton is at 25% of the vote on Monday night, with Becerra at 27.6%. The Republican recently slammed the length of time California takes to count ballots. “Nearly a week into California's election shambles. The world is laughing at our inability to count votes in a timely manner. Where is Gavin Newsom?” he wrote on X..
“No comment except to reject my plan to speed things up. We deserve better than a do-nothing, checked-out governor. Time for change!” he added. Hilton will face off against former United States Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra, who became a late leader in the race following then-Rep. Eric Swalwell’s (D-CA) campaign suspension amid sexual misconduct allegations. “California has spoken. Thank you for standing with us. To every volunteer who made a call, sent a text, knocked a door, or showed up when it mattered most — this victory belongs to you,” Becerra posted to X on Friday.
“We're just getting started. On to November,” the Democrat added. Billionaire climate activist Tom Steyer was also widely considered a top contender in the race, as he spent hundreds of millions on his campaign, including on endless television advertisements. Hilton was endorsed by President Donald Trump, and polling prior to Swalwell’s exit indicated a slight chance that Republicans would lock out Democrats in the race. Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco was the other high-profile Republican in the race, and he got just over 10% of the vote share in the wide field as of Monday night. |
Scandal on Skid Row Exposes Dangerous Voter Registration Fraud Scheme
 |
What happened on Skid Row should wake every patriotic American up: federal prosecutors say a longtime petition circulator pleaded guilty after admitting she paid homeless people to fill out voter registration forms, sometimes for as little as a couple of dollars, and even listed her own former address when registrants lacked a mailing address. This wasn’t a one-off misstep — it was exposed by undercover reporting, triggered a Department of Justice action, and was detailed at a press conference where federal officials made clear the scheme reached back years. The picture is ugly and simple: when the system lets money change registration paperwork, the smallest scams now have the power to scale. Federal prosecutors described the payments — cash, cigarettes, phone cords — and the pattern that made this scheme possible: petition circulators are paid per valid signature, so there is a direct financial incentive to turn any sketch of a name into a registered voter. Officials say the investigation began after video surfaced showing people being paid on Skid Row, and now a plea agreement has been filed in federal court. This is not theoretical; it’s concrete evidence that bad actors will exploit any loophole they find. The larger problem is structural. The top federal prosecutor in Los Angeles has publicly warned that California’s universal vote-by-mail system and lack of voter ID create “serious structural vulnerabilities,” and his office has announced multiple election-fraud investigations tied to those systemic gaps. When a U.S. attorney says his team is pursuing multiple probes and coordinating with the FBI, Americans ought to take notice — prosecutorial resources aren’t spent on hypotheticals. Californians should also know how the mechanics work: state law allows third parties to return ballots or assist with absentee voting under certain conditions, and the official rules about who may return a ballot and how that must be documented are complex and easily gamed if enforcement is lax. Critics call that permissiveness “ballot harvesting,” because it hands the chain of custody for ballots and registration forms to private operatives rather than trained, accountable election officials. That gap between law and secure practice is exactly where fraudsters live. This isn’t just about paid petitioners — it’s about dirty voter rolls. The Department of Justice’s Civil Rights Division has reported finding hundreds of thousands of problematic registrations in its limited review of state lists, including large numbers of deceased registrants and thousands of apparent noncitizens still enrolled. If voter rolls are bloated with ineligible names and mail ballot pipelines are open to exploitation, then confidence in our democracy is rightly shaken — and cleaning those rolls must be a top priority. So what should be done? Conservatives who love this republic must demand full audits, transparent chain-of-custody rules for every mailed ballot, meaningful voter ID requirements, and swift prosecutions when crimes are uncovered — not excuses or finger-pointing. This is not partisan whining; it’s common-sense enforcement that protects the ballot of every lawful citizen and restores trust in elections. If you love your country and the hard work that built it, you cannot sit back while the system hands opportunists a toolbox. Push your local officials to secure voter rolls, insist on audits, and support reforms that make fraud harder and civic duty easier. The vote of a hardworking American must mean what it says: one citizen, one lawful vote, counted with integrity. |
Hunter Biden LFG Reply Fueled Fake 2028 Hype, Not a Campaign
 |
Hunter Biden’s three-letter reply — “LFG” — to a clearly fake 2028 map
on X has somehow become front-page news. Social media got excited, some
pundits ran with it, and news outlets published breathless pieces asking
whether Hunter Biden is about to launch a 2028 presidential bid. Let’s
be blunt: this was not a campaign announcement. There is no FEC filing,
no campaign committee, and the whole thing started with a parody post
that a lot of people mistook for a real plan.What actually happened: a meme, a reply, and a feeding frenzyA parody account posted a fake electoral map imagining a Hunter Biden–Jon Ossoff ticket beating a J.D. Vance–Elise Stefanik ticket. Hunter Biden replied “LFG” — internet slang for “let’s f***ing go” — and the internet lost its mind. Reporters and cable hosts treated that short reply like a hint of a campaign. Spoiler: it’s not. There is no Statement of Candidacy on file with the Federal Election Commission. No committee has been formed. What we saw was social-media theater, not a presidential launch. Legal baggage and why a serious bid would be messyPeople should stop pretending this is just a normal 2028 announcement. Hunter Biden is a private citizen with well-known legal baggage: criminal convictions tied to a 2024 gun case and tax charges, and a presidential pardon. Those facts will not disappear if someone tweets three letters. Even President Donald Trump commented when asked, saying Hunter “could do well” but adding that “his past is not the greatest.” Translation: this would be a circus, not a sober run for the White House. Media amplification and political theaterMost outlets did eventually note that this was social-media driven speculation. But the first wave of headlines treated the reply like a leak. That tells you something about modern news cycles: if it trends, it’s news — even when it isn’t. Conservatives should be glad the press and social platforms are this eager to amplify clownish moments. Still, don’t let the circus distract from policy fights and the real 2028 field, which will include actual filings, fund-raising, and debates — none of which a meme can replace. Here’s the takeaway: Hunter Biden’s “LFG” moment is entertainment, not a campaign kickoff. Watch the FEC database and Ballotpedia if you want a real signal. Until there’s an official filing and a campaign team, call it what it is: a viral joke that made headlines. If the Biden family wants to play presidential roulette with parody posts, let them. The rest of us should keep our eyes on actual candidates, real policy debates, and the facts — not on three letters typed into a reply box. |

Raman Overtakes Pratt, Advances to LA Mayor Runoff (We knew this was going to happen)
 |
Progressive Nithya Raman has clinched a spot in the Los Angeles mayoral runoff, Newsmax projects. Raman, a City Council member, will face incumbent Mayor Karen Bass, who is seeking a second term. Raman overtook former reality TV star Spencer Pratt, who had spent days in second place as votes continued to be counted. Bass currently leads with 35%, followed by Raman at 27.12% and Pratt at 26.69%. Just 3,113 votes separate Raman and Pratt in the nonpartisan primary. Bass, a former Democrat congresswoman, was first elected mayor in 2022 after defeating billionaire real estate developer Rick Caruso in one of the most expensive mayoral races in city history. A former ally of Bass, Raman was elected to the City Council with support from the Democratic Socialists of America. Raman has campaigned on promises to reduce inequality, revive the slumping entertainment industry, and build more housing. Pratt noted Sunday, as Raman began cutting into his lead, that more votes remain to be counted. "Remember everyone ... we are still in the lead, and we've got allllllll the way til July 6th to keep counting," Pratt wrote on X. "They're not the only ones who know where to find votes." The U.S. attorney's office in Los Angeles said Friday that it had opened "multiple election fraud investigations" related to California's elections and sent a prosecutor to the county's vote-counting center. The developments came a day after President Donald Trump alleged widespread fraud in California's extended vote count following Tuesday's primary. Under California law, mail ballots are valid if they are postmarked by Election Day and arrive at county election offices by June 9. California is known for vote counts that can take days to complete. County elections officials must report final official results to the secretary of state by July 3. ANOTHER 2020 😠 |
