America First Legal Sues Every County in Arizona to Force Them, as the Law Requires, to Remove All Illegal Aliens from the Voter Rolls

dontlettrumpcheat.jpg

In case you're not on Musk's wavelength: It's a troll. He's pretending that liberals should support voter-integrity measures because of course it's Trump and the Republicans who cheat in elections. That's why Republicans always want to stop vote cheating, and Democrats fight to keep it.

Before getting to that, some more legal news: Corrupt judge Merchan, whose daughter continues fundraising off her father's efforts to jail Trump, has postponed the sentencing until after the election.

Judge Juan Merchan decided to postpone former President Trump's sentencing in New York v. Trump until after the November presidential election.

Trump's sentencing date is now scheduled for Nov. 26. The original date was set for Sept. 18.

"The public's confidence in the integrity of our judicial system demands a sentencing hearing that is entirely focused on the verdict of the jury and the weighing of aggravating and mitigating factors free from distraction or distortion," Merchan said in a letter Friday.

I can't wait 'til Alvin Bragg, Merchan, "Tish" James, and the judge who oversaw the "business crimes" prosecution learn that political prosecutions GO BOTH WAYS. They need to be investigated by the DOJ for conspiracy to Defraud the People of the US of an election (that's the same charge the DOJ slaps Trump and J6 defendants with), and need to go to jail when -- not if -- they lie about contacts with Biden's DOJ and strategists from the Democrat Party.

I will not be one of the Soft Sisters whining that Trump must be "above it all" and "restore norms." I will be one of the people demanding that those who attempted to rig an election through lawfare experience the tender mercies of lawfare themselves.

On to the headline story:

America First Legal is suing every single county in Arizona to force them, very much against their will, to take proven illegal aliens off the voter rolls.

The Democrat Party, which is all about "protecting our precious democracy," is determined to keep illegal aliens on the rolls.

Not that they'd vote or anything! Heaven forfend! They just want their names on the voter roll as... I don't know, like an "Honorary Voter" status, maybe?

@America1stLegal

/1🚨NEW LAWSUIT TO STOP ILLEGAL ALIEN VOTING

We are suing ALL 15 counties in Arizona for refusing to remove illegals from their voter rolls. This follows our lawsuit against Maricopa.

Every county in AZ is flagrantly defying its duty under state law to expunge illegal voters...

See the thread for screencaps of relevant caselaw and documents. I'll be omitting all that here.


/2 On July 17, we sent letters on behalf of our clients demanding that election officials in all 15 AZ counties fulfill their legal obligations to prevent aliens from voting and warning them that if they failed to do so, we would pursue legal action on behalf of our clients.


/3 On August 6, 2024, we sued the Maricopa County Recorder on behalf of Strong Communities Foundation of Arizona and Yvonne Cahill, a registered voter and naturalized citizen, for brazenly refusing to comply with the law.

/4 The claims in the lawsuit were based on Arizona state laws that require county recorders to do monthly voter list maintenance to remove foreign citizens from voter rolls.

/5 Nevertheless, Maricopa County removed the case to federal court, arguing that the case also involved federal laws that, in the county's view, should be interpreted in federal court. Maricopa County is notorious for employing procedural maneuvers to delay election cases and keep them from being heard on the merits.

Here's a fun wrinkle: by removing the case to federal court, Maricopa gave America First Legal the right to sue every county in the state to compel the action to remove illegal aliens from the voter rolls.


/6 However, Maricopa County's attempts here have backfired.

Arizona state court rules only allow for one county to be sued in a case like this, whereas federal court rules allow a plaintiff to sue more than one county at a time.

/7 Now that our clients are in federal court, we added the other 14 counties in Arizona to the lawsuit to ensure that every county in the state is compelled to fulfill its statutory duties.

/8 Two federal statutes that have been in effect for nearly thirty years, 8 U.S.C. sec. 1373(c) and 8 U.S.C. sec. 1644, allow State and local officials to obtain information about the citizenship or immigration status of any individual for any lawful purpose.

/9 Yet, counties in Arizona have decided to ignore these tools and threaten the integrity of the 2024 Presidential election by failing to remove foreign nationals from their voter rolls.

We are taking action.

America First Legal's announcement is here.

Congress needs to pass -- or they think they need to pass -- a continuing budget resolution to prevent a shut-down.

Mike Johnson has agreed, but he's adding the SAVE Act, which demands voter identification in federal elections, as part of the bill.

Chuck Schumer keeps saying that Johnson can't do that, but won't say why such an obviously-necessary provision is so hateful to the Voter Fraud Left.

Oops, I guess I gave it away. Spoiler alert.


Weaselly Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and his refusal to say why he opposes a House bill that would include a requirement of proof of citizenship to register to vote, which is bipartisan.

When asked whether he would support it -- and having it pointed out that five Democrat House members voted for the SAVE Act back in July -- Schumer began spamming out crap about "poison pills."

Look, Speaker Johnson should learn from the past, you can only keep the government fund[ed] in a bipartisan way. You can't have a group of Republicans, particularly led by right-wing, hard-nosed Republicans who don't even represent the whole Republican Party, put together a proposal with all kinds of poison pill legislation in it and then say, this is what has to pass. That bill may not even pass the House. I think there are some Republicans who might vote against it.

Mike Miller of RedState points out:

Um, Chuck? The House passed a nationwide proof of citizenship bill -- the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act -- with a 221-198 vote on July 10, with 216 Republicans and five Democrats voting for its passage.

Schumer again said that he would block any such bill, but continues to not say why:


It certainly has no chance in the Senate or no chance of being signed by the president. So, Speaker Johnson, look at what's going on, you can't pass a bill unless we come together on a bipartisan agreement, that's what each -- has happened each time in the past. You've tried to appease your right wing, it's failed, and you've had to come to us and negotiate. We're ready to negotiate a bipartisan deal.

Whitworth continued to push: "Some Democrats do support it, though. And what about it would not pass through the Senate?"

Again, Chuck refused to answer, further twisting himself into a an illogical pretzel, circling back to the "poison pills" excuse.

Schumer claims "if you're not a citizen, you can't vote."

But you can vote as a non-citizen, Chuck -- many do. They're not allowed to, but they do.

Because you've allowed them to.

Rick Scott declares that if the government shuts down, it's because Chuck Schumer wants illegal aliens to continue illegally voting.

You'll never, ever guess which Republican is allying himself with Chuck Schumer to block the SAVE Act from being added to the funding bill.

I'll give you a hint: He has no chin, he's paid by China, and sometimes he glitches publicly for 20 or more second straight.

While there is bipartisan agreement that there will likely need to be a continuing resolution (CR) to keep the government funded past Sept. 30, House conservatives and a Democrat-led Senate are headed for a showdown amid efforts on both sides regarding barring noncitizens from voting. And Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell's name is being reported as being against adding the stricter voting requirement measure to the funding bill.

"McConnell staffers have urged conservatives in the Senate and the House to keep the precedent of passing clean short-term-funding bills and argued that using a potential shutdown to try to score political points is dangerous before the election, sources said," according to Axios.

"Their involvement in this latest push shows he's not taking a back seat in high-level negotiations even though he plans to step down as leader after the election," the outlet added.

I've seen what he's doing and I really think, despite my inclination to hate myself for thinking it, it's going to happen.

They screwed up and don't know it yet. Not many know what they're doing wrong, but I have seen it, Trump has certainly seen it, and I think it's enough to throw the balance to him. And just like in 2016 he's going to make the impossible look easy again. Fuck I even hate writing it.

That is backwards. Cats have a reputation of being amazing mamas. They will go into burning buildings to save their babies. They will starve to feed their babies.

55 The public will see incriminating evidence about Trump shortly before the election. What a Difference a Judge Makes.

Jack Smith told Judge Tanya Chutkan that his opening brief would mention secret grand jury evidence that was not disclosed in the latest indictment of former President Trump. That’s an important development, as this means that the public will see potentially incriminating evidence about the GOP candidate for President shortly before the election.

In addition, Judge Chutkan ruled that the issue of Presidential immunity will be fully briefed on Jack Smith’s timetable – which is before the election.

MSM: "Meanwhile...Walz drinks shakes through a straw for gods sake. I think we know what the bigger crime is here"

Trump deserves a "Comey moment", not to mention Willie Horton! Cop killer granted clemency by Trump is convicted in Florida of attacking his wife (link to Florida news report)

How, you ask?

Not like you think, fraudulent ballots and all.

No. It's "cheating" to keep anyone at all from voting. The whole "when we vote, we win."
Anything at all that would keep anyone at all from voting, no matter what, is cheating.

Whatever the motives of the GOPe was in passing it, it still may have an effect on illegals voting. The reason is that like when DeSantis recently led the FL. legislature to require hospitals to ask Medicaid patients about their citizenship so that the state can compile figures of how many there were, there was a remarkable drop in emergency room visits trying to use Medicaid.

From Politico
"Data provided to POLITICO by the Florida Agency for Health Care Administration and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services show $148.4 million in state and federal Medicaid dollars went toward emergency coverage for immigrants in Florida in the year before the state’s new immigration law took effect. As of May 3, $67 million has gone toward emergency coverage this year. "

My understanding of the high IQ (~75) Lefty position on this.

- Voter ID is useless because of mail in
(Well, you would need ID to register and signature matching so -- FALSE)

- Republicans only vote in person because Trump told them (FALSE)

- Republicans really want to suppress Democrat votes by eliminating mail in
(TRUE! We want to suppress Democrat fraud votes by 3rd parties voting for illegals, dead, and non voters. We want to suppress vote brokering schemes (harvesting))

I bring this up because Leftys have really convinced themselves that the MAGA Right is trying to steal the election by preventing their lazy voters from going to the polls. FWIW

That would be the worst possible outcome, even worse than a Harris "victory" given how much that would radicalize so many. If Trump wins, which seems likely now, he needs a USAG willing to try and imprison the likes of Garland, Weismann, Comey, Brennan, Mayorkas, Swalwell, Cheney, etc. Otherwise, the lesson learned will be they can get away with raw totalitarianism, which as of now seems to be the case.

Or we can just let lower Democrat judges do everything they can to make honest elections impossible.

- electronic voting
(hard to eliminate now because of access for "disabled" and would require intelligent systems design but the Left will sue sue sue to make it mandatory. This is a big one because the ***registration*** files are electronic and that tells them what votes to manufacture, mailing address,.... This is the heart of their cheat machine.)

- mail-in and early voting.
(This eliminates any oversight or chain of custody)

- Centralized vote counting.
(See above. We put voting in hands of inner city fraud machines. This is another big problem.)

- Gov paid vote watchers.
(How the hell did this get allowed? They are the last people we can trust. They hire their party to screw conservatives.)

- Dirty voter roles.
(A secondary problem. Fix the above items please. With ID and in person voting, dead people have a harder time voting.)

There was massive voter fraud and unconstitutional violations that led to the Biden presidency. Grow a fucking sack of balls and admit it, because they’re doing it again. That’s because you weak ass, bent over, on the take, drooling dumb ass cowards let them do it and you don’t have the stones to stop them. It’s about time we had a senate that looked after the will of the people and our constitution, not their wallets and cocktail party friends.

What buffoonish, ass pirating, stoopid, on-the-take, shitbags can’t figure out that illegal aliens should not vote, mail in ballots with no signature or ID requirements are open to fraud, voter rolls needs to be maintained and votes that don’t comply with the rules, shouldn’t count? Months worth of voting for “Election Day”, assholes? Does that sound right to you, you dumb, drool cup drinking caitiffs.

The awful secret is almost all of those lawsuits are successful if they persist. The federal law is clear--all voter registration files have to be periodically purged.

Part of the reason the Dems runs continuing voter registration programs is to replace any floating non existent voter pools so they can execute ballot fraud. These same critters are also used in voter harvesting and petition/initiatives drives. Sometimes even for GOP candidate which can cause issues as a certain GOP candidate for MI governor race found out. He paid them and they double crossed him by giving him invalid signatures.

Shortens time to allow replenishment of the fake registrations. That being said, I think the AZ move is too late depending on judicial interpretation of the MVRA.

I want every political appointee to ask every bureaucrat who works for them, "Fine where your position is defined in statute, not in regulation."

If they can't do it, they get fired. To be in alignment with Loper so that Trump can't be a tyrant.

203 Rasmussen has a recent poll out showing likely illegal voters voting in AZ - I don’t have the link but surely it’s not beyond anyone’s ability to find it - but the elephant in the room is that the corruption in AZ is not “just” McCain RINO’s but the cartels likely aided by the same orientals who brainwashed McCain - the Chinese through the North Vietnamese. Clever rascals. They own most the R and almost all the D. See Gallego.

Posted by: Thomas Paine at September 06, 2024 02:48 PM (lTGtQ)

It's more the product of who created those boundaries... the people there? or the people in some far off capital.

Just like the Middle East... where the boundaries were defined by European leaders... which means they make no sense.

One of Driscoll's favorites is Jim Treacher plus other useless knobs of National Review that everyone else have forgotten for being the NT douchebags that they are.

He cites them far more than Ace.

Driscoll is a native Californian that relocated to Texas but still has that California GOP mentality in his head. Plus his lame music columns are useless wankery by someone that obviously is a poseur. Same as Podhoretz jr, Goldberg, Jay whatshisname, etc. of the NR crew.

The Bulwark and Lincoln project crew, by contrast, are starkly honest in their grifting, buggering, and selling their souls to Omidyar and his wealthy friends so they can grovel at their feet.

Sadly, this is mostly all these efforts really are. With a few rare exceptions (FL and OH) the GOP has no real interest in stopping vote fraud. Why? We can only speculate. So these lawsuits aren't filed after elections, when people aren't paying attention. They're filed in the runup to elections, when people are paying attention and are more likely to get excited and open their wallets.

Part of the reason the Dems runs continuing voter registration programs is to replace any floating non existent voter pools so they can execute ballot fraud. These same critters are also used in voter harvesting and petition/initiatives drives. Sometimes even for GOP candidate which can cause issues as a certain GOP candidate for MI governor race found out. He paid them and they double crossed him by giving him invalid signatures.

I basically consider these to be pity links, or links among friends, but providing oxygen to people who are now ideological enemies of the Right, under any circumstances, is annoying. Ed's also possibly the laziest co-blogger out there, cutting and pasting acres of text from other people, instead of just offering a link and maybe a brief comment. And he keeps putting up the same tiresome tweets from Jim Treacher and IowaPundit that are now years old, as a sort of coda to the post.

The thing about a candidate not stating their position over and over and over is that unless they say what they are going to do, how can you trust them?


The idea is that if a candidate says "I will not ban fracking" 1000x, then there is no political cost to them if they ban fracking.

It is very hard and very costly for politicians to reneg. (Barry on gay marriage, Bush on "no new taxes," and a few other examples.) so they are loath to do it.
