95K Noncitizens Registered to Vote in Texas, Say State Officials

 

The Office of the Texas Secretary of State (SOS) has discovered troubling figures — roughly 95,000 individuals identified as non-U.S. citizens by the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) are registered to vote and, 58,000 of those, 61 percent, voted at least once, says Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton.

 

“Every single instance of illegal voting threatens democracy in our state and deprives individual Texans of their voice,” said Paxton in a prepared statement released late Friday afternoon. “We’re honored to have partnered with the Texas Secretary of State’s office in the past on voter initiatives and we will spare no effort in assisting with these troubling cases. My Election Fraud Unit stands ready to investigate and prosecute crimes against the democratic process when needed.”

 

Paxton said Texas SOS David Whitley provided this information to him this week. “Nothing is more vital to preserving our Constitution than the integrity of our voting process, and my office will do everything within its abilities to solidify trust in every election in the state of Texas,” added Paxton. “I applaud Secretary of State Whitley for his proactive work in safeguarding our elections.”

Roger Stone: I Will Not Bear False Witness Against Donald Trump

 

Friday on Fox News Channel’s “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” political operative Roger Stone, a former adviser to Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential election effort, talked about the hardships he had faced while under the scrutiny of special counsel Robert Mueller’s Department of Justice probe.

 

Despite the pressure that Stone is facing, he vowed not to “bear false witness” against President Donald Trump through the ordeal.

 

“Here is the most important thing, Tucker: No matter how much pressure they put on me, no matter what they say — I will not bear false witness against Donald Trump,” Stone said. “I will not do what Michael Cohen has done, and make up lies to ease the pressure on myself. My God, a great wife, and my family see me through this.”

MSM sheep,

BuzzFeed Staff Eviscerate CEO Jonah Peretti over Handling of Mass Layoffs

 

BuzzFeed staffers blasted CEO Jonah Peretti as the embattled media organization began laying off dozens of journalists, according to a report.

 

According to Slack messages leaked to the Daily Beast, furious employees bombarded Peretti with questions amid reports it had let go of 43 people, axing several national security and entertainment reporters.

 

The company’s chief executive ticked off employees after suggesting it would be “good idea” for employees to bring their pets to work next week, prompting one angry staffer to respond: “What if instead of letting people bring in dogs we paid out peoples’ PTO in all states, not just California?”

 

“I strongly suggest you receive some outside training on how to conduct this,” another employee told Peretti. “It is dire to watch this occur and it is dire to observe the same mistakes over and over.”

 

In a Wednesday memo announcing the layoffs, Peretti told employees he hoped the reduction in headcount would keep BuzzFeed from seeking additional outside money from investors. “Unfortunately, revenue growth by itself isn’t enough to be successful in the long run. The restructuring we are undertaking will reduce our costs and improve our operating model so we can thrive and control our own destiny, without ever needing to raise funding again,” he wrote. “These changes will allow us to be the clear winner in the market as the economics of digital media continue to improve.” Despite raising hundreds of millions of dollars and its synergies with Comcast’s NBCUniversal, the media organization has failed to make a profit in the last few years.

 

“This is the second time in less than six months that such mass layoffs have been leaked and subsequent management of said leaks and their fallout have been inadequate, bordering on cruel,” another employee said in Slack.

 

“After hearing ‘It was never our intention to manage communications around layoffs this way’ several times through this Slack and other generic messages, I’m kind of curious now – What was the plan to respectfully let go some of the most talented smart hard working journalists producers writers and creatives in the industry?” asked another annoyed staffer.

 

Other employees wondered how management’s handling of the layoffs could hurt it from attracting top talent in the future. “If the company is to exist after all of this, how does it plan to recruit? Who would take the risk of joining a company that has handled some of the most talented, innovative, and creative people in such a way?” said the unnamed employee.

 

The layoffs came as another struggling digital media company — the Huffington Post — let go of dozens of staffers as part of its parent company Verizon Media Group’s restructuring plans. Politico’s Michael Calderone reports at least 15 unionized staffers were fired from the left-wing news website, which also included the elimination of its opinion section.
