The Republican National Committee and the presidential campaign for former President Donald Trump announced on Friday a plan to mobilize over 100‚000 “election integrity” volunteers and lawyers across expected battleground states for the 2024 election. The plan will include having people to monitor both polling voting sites and ballot tabulation centers in what the RNC called the “most extensive and monumental election integrity program in the nation’s history.” An “Election Integrity Hotline” will be set up in each battleground state where lawyers will monitor questions or concerns from those monitoring the voting. States typically included as battlegrounds include Arizona‚ Georgia‚ Michigan‚ Wisconsin‚ Pennsylvania‚ North Carolina‚ and Nevada.  “Every ballot. Every precinct. Every processing center. Every county. Every battleground state. We will be there‚” said RNC Co-Chair Lara Trump. “The RNC is hiring hundreds of election integrity staff across the map – more than ever before because our Party will be recruiting thousands of more observers to protect the vote in 2024. These campaign officials in states are tasked with recruiting‚ training‚ and when possible‚ shifting poll watchers and poll workers day in and day out.” The efforts were backed by Trump‚ who has frequently raised questions about the results of the 2020 election.  “Having the right people to count the ballots is just as important as turning out voters on Election Day‚” Trump said. “Republicans are now working together to protect the vote and ensure a big win on November 5th&;#33;” The RNC said that it would have five primary focuses for observation and potential litigation including voting machine testing‚ early voting‚ election day voting‚ mail ballot processing‚ and post-election audits and recounts.  “Election integrity is the foundation of our democracy‚” said RNC Chair Michael Whatley. “Through this unprecedented program‚ we are mobilizing lawyers and volunteers who are committed to preserving the sanctity of our elections.” CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP The plan has already drawn criticism from Democrats who claim that the Republicans are trying to suppress the vote.  “I think they are going to have a massive voter suppression operation and it is going to involve very‚ very large numbers of people and very‚ very large numbers of lawyers‚” Democrat election lawyer Marc Elias told NBC. “I think we need to take the RNC literally and seriously — except on their numbers.” In recent weeks‚ the RNC has filed numerous election-related lawsuits in states like Michigan and Nevada‚ which are both expected to be crucial for deciding the presidential election. Currently‚ the RealClearPolitics polling average shows Trump with a 0.4-point lead over President Joe Biden.

Republicans in the House and Senate are pushing to defund NPR after a now-former editor wrote an essay exposing the liberal bias of the outlet and reports broke on leftist comments made by CEO Katherine Maher.  Following Sen. Marsha Blackburn’s (R-TN) introduction of a bill last week to pull government funding from NPR‚ Republican Reps. Jim Banks (IN)‚ Claudia Tenney (NY)‚ and Bob Good (VA) all introduced their own legislation to end funding for the outlet. Banks introduced his measure on Friday‚ taking aim at Maher and calling NPR “low grade propaganda.” “NPR’s new CEO is a radical‚ left-wing activist who doesn’t believe in free speech or objective journalism‚” Banks said in a statement. “Hoosiers shouldn’t be writing her paychecks. Katherine Maher isn’t qualified to teach an introductory journalism class‚ much less capable of responsibly spending millions of American tax dollars.” Recently‚ clips of Maher posted by journalist Chris Rufo show Maher saying that the “number one challenge” for her in fighting so-called disinformation was the First Amendment‚ which she called a “fairly robust protection of rights.” She also claimed that former President Donald Trump was a racist and posted about her desire to go on a road trip with Vice President Kamala Harris eating “nuts and baklava.” Tenney‚ who introduced the “Defund NPR Act of 2024” said that the outlet had become a “partisan propaganda machine.”  “As a former newspaper owner and publisher‚ I understand the importance of non-partisan‚ balanced media coverage‚ and have seen first-hand the left-wing bias in our news media‚” she said. “NPR is using American taxpayer dollars to manipulate the news and lie to the American people on behalf of a political agenda. It’s past time the American people stop footing the bill for NPR‚ and the partisan‚ left-wing activists that control it.” CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP Good introduced similar legislation alongside eight co-sponsors‚ saying that it was “egregious” for taxpayers to be backing partisan news coverage.  The lawmakers’ push comes after now-former senior business editor Uri Berliner wrote an essay in the Free Press saying that the network had lost the trust of Americans because of its coverage of things like gender ideology and refusal to cover the Hunter Biden laptop story in the lead up to the 2020 election.  Berliner‚ who resigned days after the essay was published‚ said that NPR lacked serious viewpoint diversity.  “It’s frictionless — one story after another about instances of supposed racism‚ transphobia‚ signs of the climate apocalypse‚ Israel doing something bad‚ and the dire threat of Republican policies‚” he wrote.
