Trump says he will seek to require voter ID for midterms regardless of Congress

WASHINGTON, Feb 13 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump said on Friday that he would seek to impose voter identification requirements for the November midterm elections whether Congress approves them or not, without explaining the legal rationale underlying his assertion.
Trump added that he plans to issue an executive order on the matter, without providing details. The Republican president is backing a House-passed bill that would require proof of citizenship to vote in U.S. elections, which is not expected to advance in the Senate.
The bill is the latest version of election legislation that first emerged during the 2024 presidential campaign, driven by Trump's false claims that his 2020 election defeat was caused by large-scale voter fraud. A similar measure passed the House twice - last April and in 2024 - only to die in the Senate.
"I have searched the depths of Legal Arguments not yet articulated or vetted on this subject, and will be presenting an irrefutable one in the very near future!," Trump said on Truth Social.
Under the U.S. Constitution, state governments oversee elections, not the federal government, and most contests are administered by county and local officials.
Trump's Republicans hold narrow majorities in the House of Representatives and Senate. Incumbent presidents' parties typically lose seats in Congress in midterm elections.

4th amendment shit on - ICE says they don't need warrants to enter homes

No.1479927 View ViewReplyLast 50OriginalReport
https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/ice-policy-officers-enter-homes-immigration-without-judicial-warrant-rcna255305

A May 2025 internal Immigration and Customs Enforcement document shows that the agency told officers and agents they can forcibly enter homes of people subject to deportation without a warrant signed by a judge.

The memo, dated May 12 and which reads that it is from ICE Acting Director Todd Lyons, was shared with U.S. Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., by two whistleblowers.

It says that ICE agents are allowed to forcibly enter the home of a person using an administrative warrant if a judge has issued a “final order of removal.” Administrative warrants permit officers and agents to make arrests and are different from judicial warrants, which a judge or magistrate signs allowing entry into a home.

Lyons notes in the document that detaining people “in their residences” based solely on administrative warrants is a change from past procedures.

“Although the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has not historically relied on administrative warrants alone to arrest aliens subject to final orders of removal in their place of residence, the DHS Office of General Counsel has recently determined that the U.S. Constitution, the Immigration and Nationality Act, and the immigration regulations do not prohibit relying on administrative warrants for this purpose,” the memo reads.

The memo says that agents may “arrest and detain aliens” in their place of residence who are subject to a final order of removal issued by an immigration judge, the Board of Immigration Appeals, or a U.S. district or magistrate judge.

The memo says under general guidelines that officers and agents using a method called Form I-205 must “knock and announce” and that “in announcing, officers and agents must state their identity and purpose.”

The Associated Press first reported on the document Wednesday.

Bad Bunny's butt causes immense homolust, bothers GOP retards

Friendly reminder that most Republicans aren't pedophiles, they're just closeted homosexuals

https://ew.com/house-republicans-call-for-investigation-of-bad-bunny-super-bowl-halftime-show-11904174

Two days out, Bad Bunny's epic Super Bowl halftime show, which featured cameos from stars such as Lady Gaga, Pedro Pascal, and Ricky Martin, is still getting a lot of attention, especially from Republican lawmakers. They were not entertained.

By Monday, one of the detractors, Rep. Andy Ogles (R-Tenn.), asked officials to look into the performance, which he called "pure smut" that he claimed was "illegal to be displayed on public airways."

Ogles cited "choreography featuring overtly sexualized movements, including widespread twerking, grinding, pelvic thrusts and other sexually suggestive conduct."

He is, therefore, "requesting that the Energy and Commerce Committee launch a formal congressional inquiry into the National Football League and NBC immediately for their prior knowledge, deliberate approval, and facilitation of this indecent broadcast. American culture will not be mocked or corrupted without consequence."

Ogles' colleague Rep. Mark Alford (R-Mo.) said Tuesday that he and his Republican colleagues in the House of Representatives have already embarked on an investigation into the event.

"On the Bad Bunny bad performance at the Super Bowl — we're still investigating this," he said on TV's Real America's Voice, per The Wrap. "There's a lot of information that has come out about the lyrics."

Alford referenced the halftime show held by conservative organization Turning Point USA, which was meant as an alternative to the official Super Bowl halftime that President Donald Trump and others had spoken against well before it took place.

Detransitioner wins malpractice lawsuit against gender affirming care providers.

https://thefederalist.com/2026/02/10/successful-lawsuit-over-transgender-surgery-ends-a-decades-long-horror-story/

On Jan. 30, a New York State jury awarded a 22-year-old woman, Fox Varian, $2 million in damages for her 2019 “gender-affirming” double mastectomy, which she came to deeply regret. She was 16 years old at the time.

The Epoch Times reported that Varian’s mother, Claire Deacon, was worried “her daughter would commit suicide if she didn’t get” the procedure and told the court that her daughter’s psychologist certainly “increased that worry.” This represents the deeply deceptive, “Would you rather have a dead daughter or a live son?” emotional blackmail.

This judgment has sent shockwaves through the medical and psychological community peddling this lie. They know more are coming. Independent reporter Benjamin Ryan has documented 27 other detransitioner lawsuits filed to date. And Manhattan Institute research from 2017 to 2023 found that a conservative minimum of 5,200 U.S. teen girls had their breasts removed, believing it would solve their transgender confusion.

Iran says potential energy, mining and aircraft deals on table in talks with US

https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/iran-open-nuclear-deal-compromises-if-us-discusses-lifting-sanctions-minister-2026-02-15/
Feb 15 (Reuters) - Iran is pursuing a nuclear agreement with the U.S. that delivers economic benefits for both sides, an Iranian diplomat was reported as saying on Sunday, days before a second round of talks between Tehran and Washington.
Iran and the U.S. renewed negotiations earlier this month to tackle their decades-long dispute over Tehran's nuclear programme and avert a new military confrontation. The U.S. has dispatched a second aircraft carrier to the region and is preparing for the possibility of a sustained military campaign if the talks do not succeed, U.S. officials have told Reuters.
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, speaking at a news conference in Bratislava, said President Donald Trump had made it clear that he would prefer diplomacy and a negotiated settlement, while making clear that may not happen.
"No one's ever been able to do a successful deal with Iran but we're going to try," Rubio said.
Iran has threatened to strike U.S. bases in the Middle East if it is attacked by U.S. forces but on Sunday took a conciliatory line.
"For the sake of an agreement's durability, it is essential that the U.S. also benefits in areas with high and quick economic returns," foreign ministry deputy director for economic diplomacy Hamid Ghanbari said, according to the semi-official Fars news agency.
"Common interests in the oil and gas fields, joint fields, mining investments, and even aircraft purchases are included in the negotiations," Ghanbari said, arguing that the 2015 nuclear pact with world powers had not secured U.S. economic interests.
In 2018, Trump withdrew the U.S. from the pact that had eased sanctions on Iran in exchange for curbs on its nuclear programme, and re-applied tough economic sanctions on Tehran.

Thomas Massie (R-KY): "I am not suicidal"

Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) posted a startling message on social media Friday declaring, “I am not suicidal,” following a heated public clash with conservative media figures over House voting procedures.

Massie's comment came after a lengthy thread in which he criticized what he called “the swamp” and accused conservative commentators, including Laura Ingraham, of misleading the public about a House procedural vote related to the SAVE Act.

“Can you, the people, ‘vote your way out of this?’ Honestly, not if you get your news from these folks,” Massie wrote, claiming that even members of Congress are deceived by conservative media.

The thread escalated when he issued a follow-up post that appeared to reference his personal safety.

“I am not suicidal,” he wrote Friday. “I eat healthy food. The brakes on my car and truck are in good shape. I practice good trigger discipline and never point a gun at anyone, including myself. There are no deep pools of water on my farm and I’m a pretty good swimmer.”

Massie has recently drawn attention for bucking GOP leadership and for pushing the Justice Department to unredact Epstein-related files.

Republicans save america from election fraud

No.1488401 View ViewReplyOriginalReport
House republicans vote to save america from election fraud, and in doing so, advance common sense voting laws supported by 80% of Americans, including 71% of Democrat voters, and 0% of Democrat politicians

The new regulations require a minimum of photo identification for voting as well as enable information sharing with the DHS so that it's more difficult for states like California to pad their voter rolls with dead people and illegals

Democrats are furious that their voter fraud schemes are being upturned

House passes Save America Act, Trump-backed bill to impose new voting rules
Bill that requires proof of citizenship and would limit mail-in voting passes 218-213 but faces uphill battle in Senate

The House on Wednesday passed the Save America Act, which would dramatically change voting regulations by requiring proof of citizenship at voter registration and significantly curtail mail-in voting.

The legislation, which passed 218 to 213, faces an uphill battle in the Senate, close observers say.

“I’m skeptical that the Senate will vote on this bill, because this bill goes farther than the bill they’ve already sent to the Senate, [which] it hasn’t taken up,” said Shenna Bellows, Maine’s secretary of state and a Democratic candidate for governor.

One Democrat, Henry Cuellar of Texas, joined Republicans in passing the bill.

The Save America Act, introduced by Chip Roy of Texas this year, expands on changes to voting laws in the 2024 bill, adding a nationwide photo ID requirement to vote, with a list of acceptable identification that is stricter than many states that already have voter ID requirements. Student IDs are explicitly not allowed.

Implementation of the requirements in the original bill, including the proof of citizenship requirements, would take effect immediately, leaving states scrambling to align their voting systems to the new law.

Puppy murderer Noem announces Trump gov will steal the midterms

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem suggested on Friday that her department has a broad role in election security, claiming she has the authority to identify “vulnerabilities” in the election system and implement “mitigation measures” to make sure local and state elections are “run correctly.”

Noem argued during a press conference in Arizona, where she was pushing for passage of a national voter ID law, that elections fell within the Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) mission of “maintaining critical infrastructure.”

“I would say that many people believe that it may be one of the most important things that we need to make sure we trust, is reliable, and that when it gets to Election Day, that we’ve been proactive to make sure that we have the right people voting, electing the right leaders to lead this country through the days that we have, knowing that people can trust it,” she said.

A clip of those comments began circulating on social media Saturday morning, drawing swift criticism from Democratic lawmakers and political commentators.

“This is Trump’s idea of democracy: leaders get to select their voters instead of the other way around,” Sen. Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) wrote on the social platform Twitter.

The House passed the SAVE America Act on Wednesday, a bill that would require Americans to show photo ID when voting in federal elections and proof of U.S. citizenship to register. If enacted, the legislation also mandate that states remove non-citizens from its voter rolls.

Its passage tees up debate in the Senate, where similar legislation has stalled in past years over Democratic opposition. At least one Republican, Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska), has indicated she does not support the effort.
