President Trump was asked about his Thursday 9:00pm ET presidential address to the nation on “election integrity” and other matters. President Trump responded today by saying the announcement is “really big news, it’s really, really big news, and our country has to shape up.” WATCH:
The general chatter amid the various DC interests and specific subject matter experts who seemingly have information and knowledge of the matter suggests the content of the election integrity aspect will be to highlight how Chinese interests have worked within our body politic to influence U.S. elections.
There will likely be specific citations, particularly to election investigations in Michigan, but generally the international aspect revolves mostly around China with some ancillary information about Venezuela. CCP organizations also have compromising information on members of congress which will likely be highlighted and raise eyebrows.
President Trump will be joined in the event by CIA Director John Ratcliffe, acting Director of National Intelligence Bill Pulte, FBI Director Kash Patel, Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin and others. However, caution should be noted as newly appointed Special Government Employee John Solomon is responsible for the content.
While the expert investigators responsible for ongoing election interference investigations are alarmingly clueless about the overall Thursday intent, CTH has information on background from the pre-announcement coordination meeting.
Having a general understanding of the people around the Oval Office who are involved in the matter, I sense the Thursday announcement is more about positional optics than structural substance.
Trying to afford the most generous motive of intent, perhaps the anticipated 11-million-page (yes, you read that correctly), document dump is intended to give internet researchers the material to launch independent reviews.
That is a nice way of saying a lot of information is going to be released, but specific accountability outcomes will not be involved.
If honesty was applied to the endeavor, the White House could openly say, ‘here’s the information – what can crowdsource researchers discover’? However, in an era when those interests around the White House are more concerned with getting credit than actually delivering actionable accountability, moderate your expectations accordingly.
This is a John Solomon operation.
Only one person’s credibility should be on the line.
Unfortunately, Solomon is likely to attempt distance from the negative backlash created by hype that leads to not much; the media will put the egg squarely on the face of President Trump.
China is the main focus; Venezuela is secondary. The Venezuela research indicates that domestically the Maduro regime controlled the election machine voting in 2020 within Venezuela; however, there is no direct evidence the Venezuela voting system or processes were used to manipulate the 2020 U.S. election.
Much to the disappointment of Emerald Robinson and Patrick Byrne, there will be no claim that Venezuela interfered in the 2020 U.S. election. The Intelligence Community did not discover any direct, high-confidence evidence in that regard.
Regarding China, the Intelligence Community -this is where Pulte comes in- has assessed the CCP attempted to interfere in the U.S. election using a variety of direct and indirect methods. You are probably familiar with many of those prior reports already (Konnech etc.), what we should see on Thursday is some direct documentary evidence.
The Beijing evidence includes CCP-affiliated U.S. enterprises transmitted electronic voter files to agents of China with the intent that those files would be exploited to interfere in the election. Additional evidence of CCP compromise over U.S. elected representatives will likely be included in this aspect.
The CCP stakeholders involved in the targeting operation are generally in state government and state election offices. This is where jurisdictional accountability becomes murky at a federal level. It will be interesting to review the actual data that is released; however, again we should not anticipate a lot of specifics.
This is a John Solomon operation. Do not lose sight of that as the Thursday night buildup continues.
Don’t ask me why President Trump is willing to be influenced by John Solomon, I have no idea. That said, this access might change dramatically by Friday morning.
CTH anticipates directionally plausible enough claims will be made to give the patina of possibility that something important exists.
A Dot.Gov website generated, files of importance professed. Somewhere around 11,000,000 documents dropped for review. However, at the end of the rainbow…. Not much, unless crowdsourcing internet researchers can connect dots the Intelligence Community could not. [NOTE: that outcome would not be a surprise.]
There is a concern that disposable AG Pam Bondi was to the Epstein files as disposable ADNI Bill Pulte is now positioned to the 2020 Election files.
It’s not that anyone is a bad actor in this scenario; the problem is that most people seem more concerned about their position of influence and importance in the hierarchy of the White House.
Each person is more concerned about their proximity to the office of the President, and his opinion therein.
Psychologically, this credibility problem, that has now become our credibility problem, is created by a shallow sense of self that needs to be enhanced with the illusion of institutional importance gained by the proximity to power.
This unfortunate situation, combined with the deeply ingrained resistance within the executive branch that is rarely acknowledged and allowed to fester, has consistently been the core accountability issue in President Trump’s circle.
SOLOMON: ‘DON’T BELIEVE THE LEAKS.’ 👀🇺🇸@jsolomonreports says anonymous reports about President Trump’s upcoming primetime address are getting it wrong, promising Americans will walk away saying, “Wow, that was pretty amazing.” pic.twitter.com/h2DykkRHpW

Maybe this is why China backed the OPM. They are good at the long game.
More evidence of wrongdoing that will likely come to nothing. Machine tampering from Venezuela but no proof of manipulation of votes in the U.S. in 2020. There was in the immediate aftermath of the 20202 election an abundance of video and testimonial evidence gathered by many (Giuliani et al) that was all apparently quashed by crooked judges and crooked state officials. So, on Thursday the President will make a point of saying something happened “that should never happen in this country ever again'” and in the end no one will be charged and no one sent to jail. How much longer can we be expected to wait? The clock is running out on what ever is happening in Florida. The guilty will go unpunished and live to Impeach again during the next Congressional term. Why has the Trump Team been so ineffective at punishing Democrat Lawfare?
President Trump is About to Declare a “National Security Emergency for Elections.”
by Wayne Allyn Root
“For many months now, I’ve been on a “National Security Emergency” crusade.
While Republicans in the House and Senate, and conservative activists like Scott Pressler (who means well) have been pushing the SAVE Act 24/7, I’ve been pushing something a thousand times better…
A “National Security Emergency for Elections.”
This “National Security Emergency” invention was created by me, with assistance from my election security expert, John Goodman.
This idea is like comparing a tiny 1% tax cut to Ronald Reagan’s massive, record-setting, income tax act of 1981, which cut income tax rates from 70% to 28%.
There is no comparison.
Don’t get me wrong. The SAVE Act is good. I support it- if it could ever pass. But it can’t. The GOP would need to suspend, or permanently kill the filibuster, or they need 60 votes. We don’t have 60 votes. It’s not even close.
But even if by miracle, the GOP could suddenly find a way to pass the SAVE Act, it’s too little, too late. It would never be in place to protect the midterms.
Why does no one understand this?
As I’ve pointed out for many months, the GOP needed to pass the SAVE Act a year ago- thereby leaving enough time for nonstop Democrat legal challenges, and a final Supreme Court ruling.
And seeing the terrible, awful, horrible, embarrassing Supreme Court decisions last month on Birthright Citizenship, and on allowing the counting of late ballots days past Election Day, is anyone confident we’d even get a positive outcome from the Supremes?
Then there’s the final problem with the SAVE Act- it does not go far enough. It never addresses the disaster of machine voting versus paper ballots. The SAVE Act could pass, and elections would still be stolen by machine voting fraud- in particular, fraud committed by foreign enemies of the USA.
So, knowing all that, while the whole GOP was obsessing 24/7 with finding some long-shot one-in-a-million way to pass the SAVE Act, I came up with something 1,000 times better- that addresses every failing of the SAVE Act.
The problem is most MAGA conservatives still do not understand why my “National Security Emergency” is so much better than the famous (and I believe flawed) SAVE Act.
First…
Understand the most positive sign of all- Democrats and the media are FREAKING OUT about my “National Security Emergency” idea. If Democrats are scared to death, then you know we’re on the right track.
As soon as I appeared on Steve Bannon’s “War Room” TV show to promote this idea, the Democrat media machine- led by George Soros-funded “Media Matters”- went into overdrive- shrieking at my idea, howling at the moon, screaming “the sky is falling.”
That’s because Democrats realize my idea is foolproof. They CANNOT stop it.
Second…
This isn’t my first rodeo. This is my second “National Security Emergency” idea. It was already proven unstoppable the first time around.
Way back in 2019, President Trump could not secure the open border and build his wall- because Congress refused to provide the funding.
So, I came up with the idea for President Trump to declare a “National Security Emergency at the Border.” That would allow him to take the money from the Pentagon budget to finish building the wall. It would also allow him to bypass Congress.
So, I’ve invented a way to grab every element of the SAVE Act- Voter ID, proof of citizenship, and strictly limiting mail-in voting. PLUS This idea adds many more important reforms for election integrity, and rolls them all into a foolproof vehicle- a “National Security Emergency” declaration.
Again, let me stress- My idea is not an EO. It’s a “National Security Emergency.” It’s completely different. And it cannot be challenged in court.
No wonder Democrats are panicking. No wonder “Media Matters” is hysterical.
Fourth…
My idea stops Democrats (ie communist traitors who steal elections) cold in their tracks from using foreign interference to hack into machines, change vote totals, and steal elections.
Even if the SAVE Act passed, it does not address machine voter fraud. This “National Security Emergency” mandates voting by paper ballots. This is how Americans voted from the beginning of our nation 250 years ago- and it works!
I would also include bans on Ballot Harvesting and Ballot Drop Boxes (which are illegal in every other major country)- because both practices lead to massive voter fraud.
Fifth…
My “National Security Emergency” really is based on a serious emergency. It’s based on foreign interference in US elections. Our elections are being rigged and stolen by foreign enemies of the USA.
President Trump is holding a Presidential Address to the nation on Thursday night. Word has it, this will be when he starts to lay out his case of foreign interference in US elections to the American people- and not just stolen presidential elections, but dozens of US Senate and House seats.
Soon thereafter, I expect President Trump to declare a “National Security Emergency for Elections.”
If you think President Trump can’t prove foreign enemies are stealing our elections, I have news for you. Why do you think America invaded Venezuela’s Presidential Palace, captured its President Nicolas Maduro, and brought him back to US soil? Why go to all that trouble?
We could have just bombed his palace and killed Maduro. Why go through the trouble of capturing him?
Because they needed him to testify.
Maduro coordinated the stolen election, knows the details of how it was done, and can testify against Democrat leaders involved.
But the most obvious example of foreign interference in US elections is a no-brainer- the open border foreign invasion conducted and coordinated by Democrats to change the demographics of the electorate.
The plan was simple and purposeful- open the borders, invite the whole world in, illegally register them to vote, and use illegal alien foreign invaders to steal elections across the USA.
Non-citizens are voting. Fact. This is the perfect proof of foreign interference in US elections and the perfect reason to declare a “National Security Emergency for Elections.”
It all starts with President Trump’s address to the nation on Thursday night. Wanna bet?” ……………..
I can’t believe PDT would do this address as a stunt. Or leave his BOMBSHELL! legacy in the BOMBSHELL! hands of John BOMBSHELL! Solomon.
Might be a good time to review The Insurrection Proclamation” by EKO LOVES YOU.
Honest Elections are no longer optional.
Rest in the Vine: “President Trump is About to Declare
a “National Security Emergency for Elections” by Wayne Allen Root
Ain’t gonna happen. Sorry.
This is a Patrick Byrne op too?
10 million documents Okay If they have not set up a filter to identify who in DC requests their own name they are missing a velvet trap. I know requires a lot of tech to search out isp owners but how many of these clowns are not using VPNs ( and do VPNs actually work in this military intelligence based system, truley always wondered that ). Then the parallel investigations can start.
I wonder how many steps from a chinese contact are our loveable Attorney General in Michigan rests. State level exposures could flip it all. We all want to think in terms of legal accountability. Breitbart nade it clear, Politics is downstream of culture. I think we need to recognize that law is downstream of politics. Win the politics and you win the law.
It is incorrect to state that Venezuela was not involved. Smartmatic and its software is/was a 100% Venezuela controlled entity. That software has stolen many elections the world over.
John Soloman??
I haven’t paid ANY attention to anything he’s said for years.
The King of NothingBurgers.
The evidence has been collected since the symposium in Arizona in 2020 and the ducks have all been put in a row.
Those tech people tracking tge votes in real at the symposium traced those intrusions of other countries and computers down to make and address.
Nothing burger?
A frozen Schumerburger.
“The CCP stakeholders involved in the targeting operation are generally in state government and state offices.” Does exposing this give PT more leverage against blue states that are fighting the DOJ over their voter rolls and also working against the Save America Act?
YES
I can’t handle any more “Tick-tocks”
I am hoping against hope that this Thursday address will be the real deal….
Please!!!????
Mexico?
Well I guess the only take away is if this is a discussion about Venezuela and China potentially interfering in our elections, then why in the hell aren’t we getting a Thursday presentation of the Democrat party’s ballot harvesting and ballot fraud initiatives. Every moment talking about election integrity that doesn’t focus like a laser on the DNC and (her/him, they/them and he/she) operatives is a wasted moment.
Wow. Sundance, thank you for the brutal truth.
Blessings to you & President Trump.
Remember that time President Trump announced far in advance a news conference about Obama’s birth certificate only for it to be a way to force the MSM to cover bunches of military endorsements?
Maybe something similar is brewing?
I never could understand why Charlie Brown was such a wuss that whatsername could swipe the football away – not like my brothers and all the neighborhood boys who congregated on our lawn to play baseball or swing on the rope swing that was suspended from a branch on the giant elm on the embankment – that’s about where I stopped reading “Peanuts” because I was too disgusted with that repeated scenario.
Let us not be negative – maybe we will be pleasantly surprised with what President Trump is going to present – and John Solomon will have been called away on another project, very important! 🙂
51 former intelligence community members say nothing to see here.
I think that John Soloman’s sources are the main concern in his reporting. They ‘give’ him information that they want him to steer the news towards. If John, in his role as Special Government Employee allows him access to sources other than his usual ones, there may be things we can glean from it. The President also has other avenues of information at his disposal which can be intermixed with what John has assessed. We can hope that this will be a turning point for the American public to realize how elections are stolen.
Sigh. Just another waste of time.
If Trump does not take steps to ensure the midterms are above board then his life after January of 2027 is going to be hell. As will be his family’s too.
Act accordingly, PDJT.
Yeah, along with the rest of us. The time to make a stand is drawing near. Namby-pamby days are coming to an end.
So how did John Solomon get a ticket to play in the Big Sandbox?
Does Wiles like him?
It doesn’t make sense.
Our President likes results, not BS.
What we need, internationally, is a truly open, open-source, election system. The hardware patents are royalty free. Exact plans are provided. Entirely off-the-shelf components.
The software source code is on “github.” Security experts design the electronic AND manual handling and tabulating and auditing processes. Nothing is secret or proprietary. Any nation can use it, and very many would.
The world’s most important software, including everything that puts a “padlock” on THIS web page, is open source. We know how to execute and administer such projects internationally and at scale.
Yes, Dominion would be put out of business.
We need paper ballots, no machines, same day voting and a law that states all ballots must be counted and results published on election day. No more code, computers or other crap that we don’t really need.
I think that electromechanical tabulation will continue to be necessary, but it can be made open and secure. No more “trust us.”
For example: every ballot is unique. It has a UUID code. It cannot be duplicated or processed more than once. Anywhere. Every piece of election records is the same. Digital printing presses can do that.
The Dominion system, architecturally, is not secure, and cannot be made so. It is also proprietary.
I am 70 and I don’t remember any voting done without a machine of some sort. Way way back there was those big flip toggle machines with the lever.
Maybe no machines in the rural areas
So Senator Warner will be made to appear correct; it will all be framed as Trump interference in the mid-terms cuz no substance and nothing will happen.
Why is Trump stepping on the rakes laid by the IC?
