A Biden-appointed majority on the First Circuit Court of Appeals handed President Donald Trump a major setback Saturday, refusing to lift an injunction blocking key election-integrity provisions of his executive order in 23 states and the District of Columbia.
The three-judge panel denied emergency stay requests filed by the Trump administration and 12 Republican-led states, leaving in place a lower-court order that prevents the Department of Homeland Security from distributing federal citizenship lists and blocks the U.S. Postal Service from applying new mail-ballot requirements in the plaintiff states for elections held on or before November 3, 2026.
Judges Gustavo Gelpí and Julie Rikelman, both appointed to the First Circuit by Joe Biden, formed the majority.
Trump-appointed Judge Joshua Dunlap concurred in part and dissented in part, arguing that the states lacked standing to block DHS from merely providing citizenship information.
The ruling is not a final decision on the administration’s appeal. Instead, the 20-page court order denies the administration’s request to suspend the injunction while the appeal proceeds.
The administration could now seek emergency relief from the U.S. Supreme Court.
President Trump issued Executive Order 14399, titled “Ensuring Citizenship Verification and Integrity in Federal Elections,” on March 31 to enforce existing federal law that reserves federal elections exclusively for U.S. citizens and to bring basic accountability to the chaotic, fraud-prone mail-in ballot process.
The order directed DHS, working with the Social Security Administration, to compile state-by-state lists of confirmed American citizens who would be eligible to vote in upcoming federal elections. Those lists were scheduled to be transmitted to state election officials by September 4.
Trump’s order also instructed the USPS to create new safeguards for mail-in and absentee ballots, including uniquely serialized barcodes and state-provided lists identifying voters authorized to vote by mail.
Under the proposed system, the Postal Service would not transmit certain mail ballots unless the voter appeared on the appropriate state-specific participation list.
The order further directed the Justice Department to prioritize investigations and potential prosecutions involving election officials who knowingly issue federal ballots to people who are not legally eligible to vote.
In other words, the Trump administration sought to use existing federal citizenship data, modern tracking technology, and the Postal Service’s nationwide infrastructure to help ensure that only eligible American citizens participate in federal elections.
Naturally, Democrat officials raced to court.
A coalition consisting of California, Massachusetts, Nevada, Washington, Arizona, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Maine, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, through Democrat Governor Josh Shapiro, along with the District of Columbia, sued to stop the order.
Obama-appointed U.S. District Judge Indira Talwani ultimately declared Sections 2 and 3 of Trump’s order “ultra vires” and in violation of the separation of powers. Her final judgment prohibited federal officials from implementing those sections in the plaintiff jurisdictions for the 2026 elections.
The Trump administration and 12 intervening states, Alabama, Missouri, Florida, Indiana, Kansas, Louisiana, Montana, Nebraska, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota and Texas, asked the First Circuit to freeze Talwani’s injunction while the appeal moved forward.
The Biden-appointed majority refused.
First Circuit Judges Gelpí and Rikelman rejected the DOJ’s emergency motion. Biden-appointees claimed the Democrat-led states would suffer “pocketbook injuries” over envelope costs and “credible threats of prosecution” if federal law was enforced
Notably, the administration’s emergency motion focused on standing and ripeness. It argued that the states’ lawsuit was premature because DHS and USPS were still developing their final implementation plans.
The majority responded that the approaching election deadlines had already forced states to spend money, divert staff and prepare for potential changes.
“The Plaintiff States have no practical choice but to respond to the EO now,” the majority wrote.
The judges also cited the possibility that election officials could face investigations or prosecution if ballots were issued to people missing from DHS’s admittedly incomplete citizenship lists.
That reasoning effectively allows Democrat-run states to claim “injury” merely because they must prepare to comply with election-integrity safeguards months before a federal election.
The majority also claimed the administration had failed to establish that allowing two different mail-ballot systems, one for the plaintiff states and another for the rest of the country, would create irreparable operational confusion for the Postal Service.
The injunction does not prevent the Trump administration from implementing the order in states that did not join the lawsuit. It also does not prevent federal agencies from preparing to use the system nationwide in elections held after November 3.
This means the ruling could force USPS to operate a bizarre two-tier election-mail system in 2026: enhanced safeguards in participating states and the old system in the Democrat-led states that sued to block them.
Judge Joshua Dunlap rejected the majority’s conclusion concerning the DHS citizenship lists.
Dunlap pointed out that Section 2(a) merely directs DHS to provide information to state officials. It does not require states to remove anybody from their voter rolls or take any action based on the lists.
“Section 2(a) thus merely orders the provision of information to States,” Dunlap wrote. “It does not order States, including Plaintiffs, to take any action.”
Because the states were not required to do anything with the citizenship lists, Dunlap concluded that their alleged injury was “speculative and hypothetical.”
Dunlap would have lifted the injunction against the compilation and distribution of those lists. He also would have allowed the Justice Department to prioritize enforcement of existing federal laws prohibiting noncitizen voting.
However, Dunlap agreed that the injunction should remain in place against the USPS portion of the order because several plaintiff states had already purchased ballot envelopes that might not comply with the proposed requirements.
Separate D.C. Circuit Victory Remains
As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, the Trump administration recently won a separate battle before the D.C. Circuit involving the USPS mail-ballot rule.
In that case, the D.C. Circuit stayed an order issued by Judge Emmet Sullivan in litigation involving the NAACP and a settlement agreement left over from the 2020 election.
The D.C. Circuit concluded that USPS had made a strong showing that it was likely to succeed and could suffer irreparable harm if prevented from finalizing the rule before the November midterms.
Saturday’s First Circuit ruling involves a different lawsuit filed directly by the coalition of states. It does not overturn the D.C. Circuit’s decision, but it leaves the Trump administration unable to apply key portions of the election order in nearly half the country while the appeal continues.
The First Circuit majority has not yet issued a final merits decision affirming that Trump’s executive order is unconstitutional. It merely refused to pause Judge Talwani’s injunction.
The Justice Department previously warned that it could be forced to seek intervention from the Supreme Court if the First Circuit refused to grant relief, according to Reuters.

This past week Americans were able to see the evidence against Charlie Kirk’s alleged murderer, Tyler Robinson. The preliminary hearing for Robinson in Provo, Utah, allowed the prosecution to exhibit enough evidence for the judge to order a trial. Thankfully, this hearing was public and broadcast nationwide.
Before the hearing, podcasters like Candace Owens had pushed multiple conspiracy theories. For example, Owens claimed Tyler Robinson never set foot on the Utah Valley University campus where Kirk was killed. That lie, like so many, was shot down by videos of Robinson’s mother’s vehicle on video on campus. All the conspiracy theories involving Egypt, French Foreign Legion, Mossad, etc. were disproved by the evidence. Regardless, several of the conspiracists doubled down. Owens claimed all those acknowledging the credibility of evidence were “Zionists” (Direct accusation of Candace Owens, which includes even antisemite Nick Fuentes). This level of conspiracism in the face of overwhelming evidence is seen in third world, low-trust societies we are dangerously close to becoming.
First, it’s important to remember why we are here. Throughout the Obama administration, Americans saw various scandals (Fast and Furious, Lerner IRS scandal, Benghazi, etc.) and gaslighting versus accountability. Obama and his CIA and FBI directors knew the Russian collusion smear against Trump was a Hillary Clinton campaign fraud scheme. Regardless, they gave the hoax credibility to undermine Trump when he took office. In 2020, Americans were fed lies about the Hunter Biden laptop, including by 51 senior intelligence officials signing the infamous letter (“all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation”), to secure Joe Biden’s election. In 2022, Elon Musk purchased Twitter and then exposed the Biden administration censorship of conservatives that officials and media had covered up. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Dr. Anthony Fauci and others pushed a bogus “wet market” theory of COVID origin to protect their involvement. This involved censoring and stigmatizing those asserting the Wuhan lab leak theory (which most scientists agree was the origin of the pandemic). The attempts of the Biden administration and media to gaslight about Joe Biden’s mental status were exposed during Biden’s disastrous and candidacy ending debate. Numerous “conspiracies” were proven to exist.
For the record, I wrote about the Wuhan lab leak as the origin of the pandemic from the beginning. I also called foul on the Hunter Biden laptop coverup immediately. I am not against questioning. However, the conspiracy theories with Kirk’s murder have reached the absurd. I watched the Tyler Robinson preliminary hearing. First, it is a lawyer’s top duty to zealously represent the client. Tyler Robinson has top lawyers who are defending his life, and they know about all the evidence available. They have lived this case for almost year, and Rule 5 of the Rules of Civil Procedure requires the prosecution to produce all their evidence to defense. Robinson’s lawyers know the evidence and are not even insinuating the conspiracy theories are true.
During the preliminary hearing, the prosecution produced overwhelming evidence against Robinson. This includes multiple confessions by Robinson as recounted by the most important person in Robinson’s life, his trans lover Lance Twiggs. Additionally, Robinson’s own family turned him in to authorities. Confessions included text messages and a written confession left behind. Evidence at the prelim included videos of Tyler Robinson in the vehicle registered to him and his mother on the UVU campus the day of the murder multiple times. Despite Robinson living over 400 miles away and not a student.
Multiple videos show Robinson walking around campus and taking steps to the roof. The screwdriver Robinson used to assemble/disassemble the murder weapon was found on the roof with his DNA (only a one in a trillion chance it was not Robinson’s DNA). The murder weapon was found wrapped in a towel with Robinson’s and Twiggs’ DNA. Multiple experts testified under oath, under penalty of perjury, that Kirk was killed by a bullet that would have come from the type of weapon used. Finally, reporters and podcasters and others at the hearing have reported that the judge allowed the playing of a “smoking gun” video. This video shows Robinson arriving on the roof, putting the rifle together, running to the edge, and taking the shot that killed Kirk.
Despite everything, the Owens conspiracists continue to insanely gaslight themselves and others.
When I deployed to third world countries in the Middle East and Afghanistan with the military, I remember being dumbfounded at the bizarre conspiracies and gaslighting in the face of reality. In Egypt, Kuwait, and Afghanistan I would read or listen to insane conspiracies, like Osama Bin Laden working for either Mossad or the CIA. That Israel was responsible for almost every negative thing that happened in the Arab countries even when it would have been impossible. Evidence to the contrary was seen, as with the Kirk conspiracies, as fake or part of the conspiracy. Because the governments and newspapers of those countries had lied so many times, the people lived in a fantasy world. That is unfortunately where many Americans are stuck are now. They feel they cannot believe anything.
The way back is for our national leaders and institutions to demand absolute unvarnished truth. As the Bible tells us, “You will know the truth and the truth will set you free.” (John 8:32). We must know and handle the truth.

Democrats Are Worried The GOP’s Cash Advantage Could Hurt Their Chances In The Midterms

The Democratic Party heads into the midterms with generic congressional ballot polling and historical precedent on its side. It is nevertheless worried that the majorities it so desperately wants could still slip away.

Politico reported this week that Democratic strategists increasingly fear their favorable political environment could be overwhelmed by a Republican cash stockpile that dwarfs their own.

Federal Election Commission filings through the end of June show the three main GOP national committees and their affiliated congressional super PACs sitting on a combined $657 million. Their Democratic counterparts held $334 million. Add President Trump’s MAGA Inc. super PAC, which reported more than $400 million on hand several weeks earlier, and the Republican reserve runs to more than three times what Democratic Party committees and congressional super PACs can muster between them.

That gap matters more this cycle than it would have in any previous one. On June 30, the Supreme Court ruled in NRSC v. FEC that federal limits on coordinated party spending violate the First Amendment, overturning a 2001 precedent and freeing national party committees to spend without ceiling in direct coordination with their candidates. Committee money that once had to be routed through independent expenditures can now be aimed straight at a race.

Democratic strategist Morgan Jackson, an adviser to former Gov. Roy Cooper’s Senate campaign in North Carolina, calls the imbalance the central threat to his party’s hopes this cycle.

“What is putting the House majority and the Senate majority, nationally, in danger is the Republicans’ massive stockpile of resources that they’re putting together to push back,” Jackson said.

He warned that the spending gap could erode the advantage Democrats have built everywhere else. “If you get outspent five to six to eight to one, that can alleviate the environmental advantage that Democrats have this cycle,” Jackson said.

The committee-level numbers are lopsided almost everywhere. The Republican National Committee reported $128 million in cash against $16 million for the Democratic National Committee, which is also carrying $18 million in debt. The National Republican Senatorial Committee held $55.9 million to the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee’s $41 million. The National Republican Congressional Committee held $92.7 million to the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee’s $79 million.

The super PAC gap is wider still. Senate Leadership Fund, the leading Republican Senate super PAC, reported roughly $112 million more on hand than the Democratic-aligned Senate Majority PAC. Congressional Leadership Fund, its House counterpart, held about $51 million more than House Majority PAC.

The national totals obscure a more complicated picture in the marquee Senate races, where the money runs the other way. Democratic Sen. Jon Ossoff holds roughly $40 million more on hand than Rep. Mike Collins in Georgia. In Texas, Democrat James Talarico has nearly $20 million more than Attorney General Ken Paxton. In North Carolina, Cooper is about $17 million ahead of former Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Whatley. In several of the contests that will decide both chambers, individual Democratic candidates are burying their opponents even as the national party apparatus falls behind.

The picture inside the party gets messier once primary season is factored in. A wave of insurgent challengers aligned with the Democratic Socialists of America has forced sitting Democratic incumbents into costly primary fights this cycle, draining accounts well before anyone gets near a Republican opponent.

Senate Majority PAC spokeswoman Lauren French rejected the idea that the committee gap tells the whole story. “Republicans can crow all they want about getting massive checks from donors and businesses and billionaires, but we’re going to win because we have the actual support from people who are voting,” French said.

Other Democratic strategists are less confident that grassroots enthusiasm can offset a structural disadvantage. Jesse Ferguson argued that the media environment itself has made the shortfall more expensive than it would have been in past cycles. “Too many people think that fragmentation of media meant more efficiency and spending less. Wrong – it means you have to spend more,” Ferguson said. The proliferation of streaming platforms, social media, and other digital outlets has driven up the price of political advertising, strategists say, raising the stakes for whichever side can deploy the deepest reserves of outside money.

What should worry Democrats most is that the Republican advantage has barely been touched. Trump political director James Blair said last month that Republican spending would begin “very soon,” without offering a timetable. The fear on the Democratic side is that the bulk of MAGA Inc.’s $400 million war chest is being held back deliberately, to be dumped into competitive House and Senate races in the closing weeks – at the exact moment undecided voters start paying attention and Democratic committees have the least room left to answer.

Topline: The National Aeronautics and Space Administration canceled development on a new rocket launcher after already spending $1.4 billion on the project. The half-finished launcher will be stripped down and used as spare parts for existing machinery.
Key facts: The Mobile Space Launcher 2 was supposed to send astronauts to the Moon in early 2028 as part of the Artemis IV mission. The construction company Bechtel National began work in June 2019 and was expected to be done in March 2023 at a cost of $383 million.
But NASA never created a reliable cost or schedule estimate, and Bechtel severely underestimated how much manpower the rocket launcher would take to build. Construction did not begin until August 2023.
NASA’s inspector general warned in August 2024 that the project was untenable, at which point $1.1 billion had been spent. Agency officials disagreed and approved another $300 million of payments to Bechtel.
This March, NASA finally admitted the project was a failure and issued a stop work order to Bechtel. Otherwise, the launcher would have been delayed until 2028 and cost $2 billion in total.
“Bechtel’s reluctance to utilize NASA expertise, failure to track risks, challenges with managing the launcher’s weight, and lack of a certified earned value management system impacted the contractor’s cost, schedule, and performance,” the inspector general declared this June.
Federal records show Bechtel is still owed another $100 million that has yet to be disbursed.

Shawn Quinn, manager of NASA’s Exploration Ground Systems program, said in a March 29 briefing that parts of the space launcher will be kept in storage as replacements for the existing Space Launcher 1, which was used in the recent Artemis II flight that sent a team of astronauts to fly by the Moon.
“We pivoted the team to begin removing some of the hardware that is common on Mobile Launcher 1 that we can use as critical spares,” Quinn said. “We can put them to good use in future Artemis missions supporting Mobile Launcher 1.”
Summary: NASA will advance intellectual inquiry through proper planning and budgeting, not by stripping down billion-dollar boondoggles for spare parts.

The 2024 presidential electoral map by counties, with red areas voting for President Donald Trump
A blatantly threatening initiative title for this year’s election ballot imposed by Rob Bonta, the far-left attorney general in the state of California, is triggering a lawsuit that is demanding a fair description of what the vote would do.
It is Republican Assemblyman Carl DeMaio, through his Reform California organization, who is going to court over Bonta’s unvarnished politicization of the title to be on the election ballot.
DeMaio explains what is needed is for Bonta “to restore a FAIR ballot title to our Prop 39 Voter ID Initiative!”
The initiative, approved by voters for the ballot, would require ordinary election integrity measures such as identification for voter registration and voting.
Polls show vast majorities of Americans in all parties support those plans.
But Bonta demanded the ballot initiative that had been titled, “Voter ID and Citizenship Verification Constitutional Amendment” be changed to “Prohibits Citizens from Voting.”
A report at RedState identified the issue: “This is insane. The highest law enforcement officer is now actively rigging the election in the middle of the election season.”
It is Proposition 39 that is at issue. It collected more than a million signatures from Democrats, Republicans, and Independents after more than a year of petition circulation under the original wording.
Critics charge Bonta’s scheme is blatantly designed to “tilt public perception against it.”
Republican Assemblyman David Tangipa said, “The most blatant form of cheating and rigging for the November election that we have ever seen.”
RedState explained, “If there’s one thing that Democrats are scared of, it’s voter integrity efforts, and current AG Rob Bonta is doing his best to make sure that a voter ID initiative gets crushed in the November elections.”

The new ballot wording for the Voter ID initiative is designed to scare and mislead voters. The reason it’s being distorted is that a fairly worded measure would pass. This is why I introduced legislation to remove the Attorney General’s control over ballot language. https://t.co/OGcKwT4x4H

Bonta insisted that he politicization was only to “provide further clarity.”

Fact: It is common for ballot titles and summaries to change from the circulating version to the version voters see on the ballot. California law expressly allows these changes to provide further clarity for voters.
This year, all nine voter-proposed initiatives had changes,…

Shiloh Hendrix faces charges in Rochester City, Minnesota, for her apparent repeated use of a racial slur in April 2025. (@sav_says_ / X screen shot)
The Minnesota mother who has been at the center of a racial firestorm since last year has just broken her silence after a far-left jury convicted her earlier this week of a speech ‘crime.’
As The Gateway Pundit’s Cassandra MacDonald reported, a Minnesota jury on Thursday night delivered a split verdict in the disorderly conduct trial of Shiloh Hendrix.
The jury found the 37-year-old mother not guilty on the count related to her words directed at the eight-year-old Somali boy who was stealing from her, but guilty on the count stemming from her comments to the man who filmed and confronted her at a Rochester playground.
Judge Christa M. Daily sentenced Hendrix to a $1,000 fine, 200 hours of community service, supervised probation, and a stayed 90-day jail term.
Last April, Hendrix was at the park with her toddler when the boy reached into her diaper bag and took an applesauce pouch. She confronted the child and allegedly used the N-word.
A Somali man named Sharmake Beyle Omar, who was not the child’s father, began recording the scene, became extremely confrontational with Hendrix as she was holding her toddler, and continued filming as he demanded and provoked her to repeat the slur.

Independent Journalist Tom Hennessy, who has been in close contact with Hendrix since her ordeal first began, just released a statement from her regarding the unjust verdict.
Hendrix began her letter by expressing relief at being back home with her sons, whom she “missed so much,” and that “her family’s hearts would have been broken” had she been jailed.
The Minnesota mother went on to thank her husband and lawyer, along with Hennessy, for their support.
Then Hendrix added an important note: she is NOT on social media, and someone is trying to impersonate her. One can only hope X will soon take down the account responsible.
Hendrix also called the verdict “unfair and unjust” while confirming there would be an appeal, vowing always to continue fighting.
She then closed by thanking everyone else around the country who has backed her.

Hello!
I hope everyone is doing well!
I just got back home to my sons yesterday after being away from them for several days due to my trial. It’s the longest time I’ve ever been separated from them. I missed them so much. I can’t even imagine if they had jailed me for this. My family’s hearts would have been broken. I’m so grateful to be home.
I have had an excellent team with me throughout this whole thing. My husband has never left my side. Tom Hennessy was reporting the truth the whole time to keep you all updated. My lawyer, Brian Karalus, has proven to be the perfect person for this case. I also had a group of patriots serve as my security. I am so thankful for them all.
I also wanted to add that I am not on social

We all know the verdict. We all know how unfair and unjust it is. This is why I will be appealing. Things are already in motion to do so. I will never stop fighting, and all of you give me so much strength and hope to keep my head in the battle. I don’t know what I would do without all of your support. You’ve all proven time and time again how great we can be when we stick together. It makes my heart happy.
Thank you for staying by my side.
Thank you for showing the world what we can do.
Thank you for helping me protect my family.
Thank you for everything.
