This news actually broke a few days ago, but almost no one covered it and now it’s going wide today. Yes folks, what we all knew and suspected all along, and what President Trump TOLD US in 2020 is that Fulton County massively over-counted and illegally-certified hundreds of thousands of ballots.  315,000 to be exact! Take a look: Fulton County admits it illegally certified 315,000 ballots in 2020 electionhttps://t.co/OoIPJkh1cw — Not the Bee (@Not_the_Bee) December 19, 2025 Real Clear Politics reports that in all reality the number is probably significantly higher than 315,000: Earlier this month, Fulton County admitted that approximately 315,000 early votes from the 2020 election were illegally certified but were nonetheless still included in the final results of that election. The admission came during a Dec. 9 hearing before the Georgia State Election Board (SEB) stemming from a challenge filed by David Cross, a local election integrity activist. Cross filed a challenge with the SEB in March 2022. Cross alleged that Fulton County violated Georgia statute in the handling of advanced voting ahead of the November 2020 election, counting hundreds of thousands of votes even though polling workers failed to sign off on the vote tabulation “tapes” critical to the certification process. And Fulton County admitted to it. Ann Brumbaugh, attorney for the Fulton County Board of Registration and Elections, told the SEB in the hearing that while she has “not seen the tapes” herself, the county does “not dispute that the tapes were not signed.” Brumbaugh continued, “It was a violation of the rule. We, since 2020, again, we have new leadership and a new building and a new board and a new standard operating procedures. And since then the training has been enhanced. … But … we don’t dispute the allegation from the 2020 election.” Georgia’s Secretary of State Office investigated the alleged failure to sign tabluation tapes and “substantiated” the findings that Fulton County “violated Official Election Record Document Processes when it was discovered that thirty-six (36) out of thirty-seven (37) Advanced Voting Precincts in Fulton County, Georgia failed to sign the Tabulation Tapes as required [by statute],” according to a 2024 investigation summary. In addition to probing the unsigned tabulation tapes, the investigation also found that officials at 32 polling sites failed to verify their zero tapes. Georgia law requires that election officials have each ballot scanner print three closing tapes at the end of each voting day. Poll workers must sign these tapes or include a documented reason for refusal. Voting laws also require poll workers to begin each day of voting by printing and signing a “zero tape” showing that voting machines are starting at zero votes. If there is no record of whether the tabulator was set at zero at the start of polling, there is no way of telling whether ballots from a previous election (or ballots from a test run) were left on the memory card and might later be counted. Notably, this happened in Montana, where officials discovered more votes than were cast and believe the votes were leftover sample data that had not been cleared. “These signed tapes are the sole legal certification that the reported totals are authentic,” Cross told the SEB at the Dec. 9 hearing. “Fulton County produced zero signed tabulator tapes in early voting.” Cross stated that he obtained 77 megabytes of election records from Fulton County through an open records request that cost $15,800. According to Cross, these included 134 tabulator tapes, representing 315,000 votes. Each signature block on these tapes was blank, Cross said. Cross also highlighted additional irregularities, such as polling locations being open at “impossibly late hours, like 2:09 a.m.” Cross also said that he found “duplicated scanner serial numbers, where the memory devices were removed from one scanner and printed on an alternate scanner.” “These are not clerical errors. They are catastrophic breaks in chain of custody and certification,” Cross said. “Because no tape was ever legally certified, Fulton County had no lawful authority to certify its advanced voting results to the secretary of state. Yet it did,” Cross said. “And Secretary Raffensperger accepted and folded those uncertified numbers into Georgia’s official total without questioning them. This is not partisan. This is statutory. This is the law. When the law demands three signatures on tabulator tapes and the county fails to follow the rules, those 315,000 votes are, by definition, uncertified.” Kevin Moncla, an election integrity activist who has been at the forefront of these challenges, estimates the number is likely higher than 315,000. Folks, do you remember when President Trump asked Raffensperger to “find” 11,000 ballots? Listen here: Fulton County now admits that 315,000 early ballots were counted WITHOUT poll workers’ signatures in 2020… …which is EXACTLY what Trump said during his infamous phone call with Brad Raffensperger after the election Trump knew the entire time. 2020 was rigged and stolen. pic.twitter.com/yzr5NiOyoA — Patri0tsareinContr0l (@Patri0tContr0l) December 19, 2025 Trump knew t he whole time! He knew it was rigged and stolen! He knew he didn’t lose by 11,000 votes but rather probably won by 300,000 votes or more! IT’S ALL COMING OUT NOW! And now the U.S. Justice Department sues Fulton County officials over it! From CBS News: The U.S. Justice Department is suing Fulton County officials in an attempt to obtain sensitive voter records from the 2020 presidential election. The lawsuit, filed in federal court in Atlanta, accuses the Fulton County Board of Registration and Elections and Clerk of Courts Che Alexander of failing to comply with a subpoena sent to the county in October. The subpoena requested “all used and void ballots, stubs of all ballots, signature envelopes, and corresponding envelope digital files from the 2020 General Election in Fulton County,” the lawsuit reads. The Justice Department stated that its request aimed to ensure Georgia’s compliance with federal election laws and to investigate what officials claimed were “unexplained anomalies in vote tabulation.” In response to multiple requests for the information, Alexander told the department that the requested records were “under seal and may not be produced absent a Court Order,” the lawsuit reads. The federal agency is now requesting that the court rule that Alexander has violated Title III of the Civil Rights Act and order the production of the records within five days of a court order. Fulton County officials told CBS News Atlanta that they were “not at liberty to comment on pending legislation.” Fulton County elections under the microscope The handling of the 2020 election by Fulton County, Georgia’s most populous county, has come under scrutiny following President Trump’s narrow defeat by President Biden in the Peach State. The president and other Republican allies have claimed that ballots were duplicated or that there were other attempts at voter fraud in the county. While a state review of the county’s audit of the 2020 presidential race found errors and inconsistencies in the vote count, including some double-counting of ballots, the review said the errors weren’t enough to alter the election results.

President Trump held a Press Conference today at the White House where he brought the CEOs of 9 of the largest Big Pharma companies in to announce they have signed on to both TrumpRX and “Most Favored Nations” status for drug pricing. I love Trump of course and I think this is beyond wonderful, but I think this is now the 3rd of 4th time President Trump has hosted this EXACT SAME Press Conference. Which tells you he really wants everyone to pay attention to it because it’s massive! I think most people don’t understand it or don’t trust it will actually happen, but it 2026 when your drug costs suddenly come down by 95-99%, it’s going to be impossible to deny. And I think this alone will win him the Midterms in a tsunami. But since this is the 3rd or 4th time we’ve seen this Press Conference, something else really jumped out at me this time…..namely, the Big Pharma CEOs standing behind him who looked EXTREMELY uncomfortable and downright pissed. Especially the guy I drew a red arrow to: The BIG PHARMA CEOs standing behind Trump all look like they want to absolutely kill him, especially this guy. This feels like a Fauci 2.0 moment, where President Trump thrusts his enemies into the spotlight and spends 30 minutes telling Americans how these people have been… pic.twitter.com/fx6CHui0vW — Noah Christopher (@DailyNoahNews) December 19, 2025 Maybe these are the nicest people in the world and my read on their faces and body language is off, my from what I see they all look like they’d love to stab Trump to death right on the spot if they could somehow get away with it. I’ve never seen a group of people so uncomfortable and angry at the same time. It feels to me like the whole Fauci and Birx 2.0, do you know what I mean? Do you remember during the Planned-demic when Trump kept thrusting Fauci and Birx in to the spotlight? That’s what you do with rats, you thrust them into the spotlight and you let the light of truth cook them! And I think that’s what he’s doing here. He does his classic “He’s a really great guy” or “She’s a great person” or “these are fantastic companies” — meanwhile, in between those compliment sandwiches he’s spending 30 minutes ripping them up and down, telling all of America how these companies have been stealing BILLIONS from them for decades, sometimes even making life-saving drugs so expensive to Americans (but cheap every where else) that some Americans can’t get the medicines they need and they die or get much sicker. Truly stop to imagine being forced to stand center stage on camera while President Trump basically calls you SCUM OF THE EARTH for 30 minutes and then dabs a few compliments over the top, meanwhile he just ended your Free Money scheme by forcing you into Most Favored Nations Status and you know now that the free money ride is over.  America is done being your punching bag. What an incredible moment. Bravo sir, bravo! Pray for President Trump’s safety. You can watch the whole thing here if you like:

The Justice Department will need more time to release all of the remaining documents related to sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, missing Friday’s deadline that was stipulated in the law signed by President Donald Trump last month. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche told “Fox & Friends” on Friday that “several hundred thousand documents” would be made public on Friday, but “several hundred thousand” more documents won’t be released until the coming weeks. “The most important thing that the attorney general has talked about, that [FBI Director Kash] Patel has talked about, is that we protect victims, and so what we are doing is we are looking at every single piece of paper that we are going to produce, making sure that every victim, their name, their identity, their story to the extent that it needs to be protected is completely protected.” Blanche said that the dump on Friday will include numerous forms of documents, including photos. The Justice Department has been “working tirelessly” as it sifts through “every single document” to ensure that victims are protected before the information in the documents is made public. The bill passed by Congress and signed by Trump last month allows the Trump administration to withhold information on victims, including images of child sexual abuse. Blanche added that President Trump “has said for years, that he wants full transparency, and he wants the Department of Justice to release everything that we can in respect to this investigation.” The deputy attorney general then blasted Democrats who are now focusing on the Epstein case after there was “radio silence” on the issue during the Biden administration. Christmas Sale – Get 40% off New DailyWire+ Annual Memberships The Epstein investigation has plagued the Trump administration since the summer, when the Justice Department said that it found no evidence of an Epstein client list, and President Trump called the issue a “hoax.” The Trump administration has also faced criticism from a few Republican lawmakers over its handling of the Epstein case. On Friday, Kentucky Congressman Thomas Massie shared an image of the bill signed into law by Trump, highlighting the sentence that requires the release of the files within 30 days. “Time’s up. Release the files,” Massie said. The Justice Department did not say when on Friday it would release the hundreds of thousands of documents slated to become public. Neither did the Trump administration say when exactly the remaining files would be released. So far, the Republican-led House Oversight Committee has released over 50,000 pages of documents and thousands of photos from the Epstein estate. While prominent politicians and powerful people, such as Trump and former President Bill Clinton, have been named in the files and images of them with Epstein have also been released. A photo obtained by The Daily Wire on Thursday shows Clinton and Epstein standing side-by-side. NEW: Photo obtained by @realDailyWire shows Bill Clinton and Jeffrey Epstein together. To my knowledge, this photo hasn’t been reported. Massive trove of Epstein files are expected to be released tomorrow. pic.twitter.com/OvFFbUQlXq — Mary Margaret Olohan (@MaryMargOlohan) December 19, 2025 Both Trump and Clinton were close to Epstein at one time, but neither of them has been implicated in any of Epstein’s crimes, nor have they been accused of wrongdoing by any of Epstein’s victims.

The Department of Homeland Security is recruiting new officers and agents to help carry out its mass deportation campaign at Turning Point USA’s AmericaFest this week. With an influx of $165 billion from Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill, DHS has focused on hiring more officers and agents to ramp up arrests and deportations. DHS arrived at the conference with a BearCat armored vehicle and signage reading “Decide America’s future, rise to your potential & defend the homeland.” “We’re looking for American patriots willing to defend the homeland, and honor the vision of America Charlie Kirk fought for,” DHS wrote on X. DHS is at @TPUSA Amfest! We’re looking for American patriots willing to defend the homeland, and honor the vision of America Charlie Kirk fought for.

Christmas Sale – Get 40% off New DailyWire+ Annual Memberships The administration is currently short of that goal, with more than 605,000 deportations since Inauguration Day. The agency is offering up to $50,000 in sign-on bonuses to entice new recruits. DHS has also asked former law enforcement officers to return to the job. ICE has already met its goal after receiving 220,000 applications, the agency said Thursday. “Our Defend the Homeland recruitment campaign is the MOST SUCCESSFUL federal law enforcement recruitment campaign in American history,” ICE recently said on X. AmericaFest is expected to have roughly 30,000 attendees, making it the largest turnout yet.
