There was a very high profile vote by mail scandal in NJ in recent years. Unfortunately, the person who was just sentenced to years in prison for fraudulent VBM operations worked for... Jeff Van Drew.

I am a firm believer that whatever was said between Trump and Putin (whose English is good enough) privately in The Beast for several minutes without witnesses is the real reason for this whole last minute summit. And I am not so sure it was just about Ukraine.

Dan Bongino, a charter MAGA member, is in a huge bind. And the more he is overlayed by Trump, Bondi and Patel, the more he and his followers will believe that he is being sidelined because he knows too much. It may be only a matter of time until he blows and reveals what he knows.

Any television network with an ounce of integrity should refuse to carry Trump’s Thursday address live. open.substack.com/pub/saltypol...

Casting doubt upon election integrity allows Trump to justify military action against the purported perpetrators, pound the table even harder about passing the Save America Act, nationalize control of elections, and continue the slow-rolling coup that began in 2021 with the attack on the Capitol.

Please pay attention. What Trump is poised to do on Thursday is the most dangerous threat to our democracy yet -- and, in one fell swoop, an excuse for ongoing war, both politically at home and militarily abroad. open.substack.com/pub/saltypol...

Trump believes that he can command the United States military from beyond the grave. Watch how fast fealty to his evaporates if he does. open.substack.com/pub/saltypol...

There is a strain here that needs to be addressed. saltypolitics.substack.com/p/come-at-me...

Here's how Republicans totally screwed themselves on filling McConnell's seat in the event of a vacancy. This is a massive self-own — and one that is a chef’s kiss as the master manipulator of senate procedure, McConnell, fades from the scene. Come for the gamesmanship, stay for the schadenfreude.

Genevieve McDonald should run for ME senate. Unlike those who stood by until it was WAY past time, she called Platner out as soon as she saw trouble and publicly resigned from his campaign. Fought for women fishermen like herself, served in the ME House and stood up when it counted.

Important: Trump has invented a new mental health "disease." His Justice Department is now weakening protections for involuntary confinement and the people who make money from locked doors are waiting for the beds to fill. open.substack.com/pub/saltypol...

This is the clown who helped bring us John Fetterman and Graham Platner. He is a 27 year old who hitched his star to a once-in-a-generation political talent named Zohran Mamdani. And yet we are somehow supposed to be impressed with his “genius?” nypost.com/2026/07/09/u...

At every stage, Democrats were told that this was the last shoe. By the end, one had to wonder whether there was a DSW left in Maine with any inventory.
