Tuesday on ABC’s “The View,” co-host Joy Behar said the Trump administration is pushing “blatant racism” in their closing midterm election message. Co-host Whoopi Goldberg said, “Vice President JD Vance made a claim to Ohio voters yesterday. Take a look.”

The Trump administration has been cleared Tuesday to demand that election workers set aside and wait on counting ballots cast by suspected noncitizens.

Last month, the Justice Department and Department of Homeland Security cautioned election officials about potential criminal liability regarding the counting of ballots cast by suspected noncitizens. In California, this would result in the sequestration of roughly 20,000 mail-in ballots.

Accordingly, the Trump administration can resume telling state election officials to set aside suspect ballots.

Various labor unions and liberal advocacy groups including the Service Employees International Union and the NAACP sued in hopes of blocking the Trump administration's efforts to ensure that foreigners weren't putting their thumbs on the scale of the midterms elections.

U.S. District Judge Trina Thompson, a Biden appointee, obliged the liberal plaintiffs on Friday, blocking the Trump administration from demanding that election officials nationwide not process ballots cast by suspected noncitizens. Her temporary restraining order was to last until Nov. 13.

On Monday, a three-judge Ninth Circuit panel put a halt on the Biden judge's temporary restraining order, finding that the government had "established a likelihood of success on the merits."

However, a few hours later, that ruling was vacated and Mary Murguia, an Obama appointee serving as chief judge on the Ninth Circuit, ordered that the case be reheard by a full Ninth Circuit panel — a decision that law professor Jonathan Turley said "hampers the Administration's efforts on election integrity."

In a 6-5 vote decided midway through Election Day, the Ninth Circuit reinstated its earlier ruling lifting the restraining order on the Trump administration. Murguia was among the dissenting judges.

Accordingly, the Trump administration can resume telling state election officials to set aside suspect ballots and telling those officials that failure to do so could result in federal prosecution.

‘If anybody’s ever flown on a Boeing 747, it’s the exact same aircraft engine’

Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro, one of the nation's most prominent Jewish elected Democrats and a potential presidential contender, is backing Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan's U.S. Senate race.

Lindsay Clancy's prosecutors said Monday they want her to stand trial again for the murders of her three young children — but it isn't yet clear what charges Clancy would face at a retrial, WBZ-TV reported.

Defense attorney Kevin Reddington in Clancy's first trial acknowledged that she killed her children — 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson, and 8-month-old Callan — in their Duxbury, Massachusetts, home in January 2023, WBZ said.

'When you have jurors, you expect that jurors are going to be honest in their disclosure to the court about their background.'

But Clancy pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder, and Reddington argued that his client wasn't criminally responsible because she was overmedicated and suffering from postpartum psychosis, the station added.

Prosecutors disagreed, saying Clancy knew right from wrong and planned to strangle her children, WBZ said.

The prosecution also maintained that Clancy schemed to get her husband out of the house that evening her children were killed by sending him to pick up medicine for one of their children and dinner for the family, the Associated Press said.

The first trial ended with a hung jury on Sept. 4 with one juror holding out, believing Clancy was guilty, while the other 11 believed she was not guilty of murder.

In a twist, Reddington argued in late September that there wasn’t enough evidence to prove Clancy killed her three children.

However, in a civil lawsuit, Clancy's lawyers said she admitted to killing them, WBZ noted.

More from the station:

At a hearing in Plymouth Superior Court Monday, prosecutor Jennifer Sprague said for the first time that Clancy will likely stand trial again, though it is not yet known what she would be charged with.

"This would be a retrial," Sprague said, adding that the prosecution has not yet decided "how that will look."

Sprague told Judge William Sullivan she did not want to set a trial date until he ruled on outstanding motions in the case.

Reddington, however, said he wants to know what charges his client will face — and added that the "elephant in the room" is Sullivan's approaching retirement, WBZ reported. In addition, Reddington said he wants Sullivan to be the trial judge, the station noted.

"Why do we not know if the next trial is going to be murder in the first degree or a lesser charge or no charge?" Reddington said, according to WBZ. "They don't need to wait for that to determine if they're going to take a run on her again on first-degree. I have to know logistically if it's going to be triple homicide first-degree or something else."

The station added that if prosecutors decide to retry Clancy on lesser second-degree murder charges, she could opt between a jury trial or a judge issuing a ruling.

"I am not going to have this woman sit incarcerated for the next year, or two, or three," Reddington said, according to WBZ. "I want a trial. And I want it with you, and I want it this spring."

Sullivan said he is leaning toward March as a realistic date for a second trial, the station reported, adding that the date will be discussed at the next hearing on Nov. 16.

Prosecutor Sprague also argued for the government's motion for a gag order, saying Reddington has made "calculated" statements that could impact the public's perception of the case — and thereby taint the jury pool for a potential retrial, WBZ said.

Laura McConnell argued for the defense against the gag order, the station said, saying that because Clancy hasn't given interviews, Reddington acts as her voice — and a gag order would take that away.

WBZ said Sullivan took the matter under advisement and didn't issue a ruling Monday.

In addition, Reddington argued on a motion to preserve records related to the holdout juror, referred to in court as "Juror Doe," the station said.

"When you have jurors, you expect that jurors are going to be honest in their disclosure to the court about their background," Reddington said, according to WBZ.

Then things got heated when Reddington referred to the holdout juror by name, the station said:

"I'm going to stop you right there," Sullivan said.

"No. You're not going to stop me," Reddington responded.

"I am," Sullivan said. "Because there's no need to bring out that juror's name."

Reddington then argued that the holdout juror's name is "all over the internet," as he has given interviews, WBZ said, adding that Redding also told Judge Sullivan the holdout juror has "got more face time than I do."

Reddington also alleged that the holdout juror was scrolling on his phone during deliberations, the station reported, adding that Reddington added that "I have evidence that this man was not honest" on his jury form.

Clancy's attorney alleged that the holdout juror didn't disclose that he had an abuse prevention order against him and failed to disclose a 2021 arrest, WBZ reported.

Prosecutor Sprague asked for the motion to be denied "on its face," the station said, since allowing the motion would be "potentially opening the door" into examining all jurors' actions and statements.

Judge Sullivan did not rule Monday on the motion related to the holdout juror, WBZ noted.

Clancy remains in custody at Tewksbury State Hospital under psychiatric care, the station said, adding that she is paralyzed and in a wheelchair after jumping out of a window the night her children were killed.

It takes a pretty radical candidate to make a Democrat cross party lines and endorse a Republican whom she recently accused of being a “racist.”

But that’s exactly what’s happening in Michigan, where Rep. Haley Stevens has withdrawn her support for Democrat Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed and thrown her backing behind Republican Mike Rogers.

“Unlike in Texas, you have Democrats who ... of their own volition are realizing how dangerous this guy is and turning against him, like Democrat Congresswoman Haley Stevens, who ran against him and now says she is not supporting Abdul,” BlazeTV host Sara Gonzales explains, before playing a clip of Stevens endorsing Rogers.

“Hey, Michigan. As you may have seen, our Democratic nominee for U.S. Senate, Abdul, said that I was no longer welcome in his campaign and that I should stay away. And he’s right. And that’s why I am endorsing Mike Rogers for the United States Senate today,” Stevens said.

“I don’t belong in Abdul’s campaign. I do not stand with Hasan [Piker], who gets trafficked on our college campuses. A dear friend of mine earlier today was saying that education is on the ballot, and she’s absolutely right. And what our students see, what our children see, and who we are as Michiganders is not hate,” she added.

“You would think it would take a pretty radical guy for a Democrat in the state of Michigan to decide to endorse a Republican,” Gonzales comments. “Like, that’s crazy.”

“Even CNN and MSNBCs of the world were like, ‘This is probably not a great alliance.’ Like, why are you cozying up to a guy that outwardly hates America and says that America deserved 9/11? That’s kind of a bad look,” she continues.

However, plenty of Democrats are not happy with Stevens' withdrawal of support — especially Hasan Piker, whom Stevens had cited as a reason for being unable to endorse El-Sayed.

“There are plenty of others out there in the Democratic Party coalition who oppose our ideology, who oppose our worldviews, who oppose us, but at least they keep quiet, with the full knowledge that we are an important part of this coalition. Perhaps the most important part of this coalition,” Piker said in a recent stream.

“What the f**k were you thinking? You absolute moron,” he said of Stevens. “You think people are going to hear this and go, ‘Well, that does make a lot of sense. I too hate Hasan Piker.’ What are you, f**king nuts? She became such a Republican that she lost IQ points. Did you get John Fetterstroked? What the f**k is going on?”

Piker also called her a “petulant child.”

But Piker isn’t the only one lashing out at Stevens. Democrat James Carville also went on a rant against the Democrat, calling her no better than a “used condom.”

“Your political career is over. If you think that these Republicans are going to treat you as anything other than what they view you as, and that is, let me just break the news to you, a used condom,” Carville said.

“The Democrats don’t even think you’re worth a used condom. But that’s about where you are. You made your bed. Sleep in it,” he added.

“This is how they treat you,” Gonzales says.

“They have absolutely no morals or values or principles on which they stand. They just intend to use your morals and values against you. They don’t believe in country over party. They believe in the ends justify the means,” she adds.

The Republican National Committee’s Election Integrity team is fighting back against chaotic polling place disruptions.

Ballot scanners went down in Westchester County, N.Y., when polls opened Tuesday morning, and a Northern Virginia voter reportedly showed up to vote and was told he already had. Across America, the RNC’s Election Integrity team is tackling chaos at the ballot box.

‘This would not have been caught if we had not gone in person.’

In Westchester, voters are filling out paper ballots and dropping them into orange emergency bags. The county’s scanners refused deposited ballots just after the polls opened at 6 a.m., according to CBS New York.

County Executive Ken Jenkins blamed a printing problem that left ballots unreadable to the machines, according to the outlet. The state Board of Elections pointed instead to a programming change made to a contest in one municipality after the county’s equipment had been tested.

Jenkins assured voters that a bipartisan team will investigate.

Rep. Mike Lawler (R-N.Y.) said every scanner in the county had a problem, and whether “the ballot or the machine” was to blame was unknown.

“Every ballot will be counted. Stay on line and vote. Do not leave the polling place without voting,” Lawler posted.

The RNC said it had deployed extra observers in Westchester and that both Republicans and Democrats were seeking a joint court order to move ballot counting to the County Board of Elections rather than a local polling place.

The stakes are high for Lawler. His re-election race against Democrat Cait Conley in New York’s 17th District is one of the most closely watched in the country, and the district covers most of northern Westchester. Blaze News' Poll Watch has Lawler leading his opponent by just a tenth of a point.

“Long-established emergency ballot procedures have been implemented, where completed ballots are secured, under bipartisan control, and will be counted,” the New York State Board of Elections said in a statement, according to CBS New York.

The RNC said it had resolved a polling place problem in Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, a county Scott Presler reminded followers “ran out of paper in 2022.” This time around, one precinct was missing a scanner-attached ballot box, according to a voter’s account shared by Presler.

“7:45 am Butler Township Luzerne County District 8,” the voter wrote. “The scanner box for my district was not available, so they put my ballot in a holding box in the other scanning machine. I was assured it would be scanned as soon as the scanning box arrived.”

“A scanner was there, but it was not attached to a box that the ballots would fall into,” the voter wrote.

The RNC posted, “ISSUE FIXED,” on X about two hours after Presler flagged the problem.

“The RNC flagged the polling-place concern with the Luzerne County Bureau of Elections and made sure it was resolved,” RNC Election Integrity posted at noon.

The Department of Justice said Tuesday it would send monitors to Luzerne County as part of its first-ever effort to monitor elections across all 50 states. Westchester and Georgia's Fulton County are also on the DOJ's watchlist, alongside Fairfax and Prince William Counties in Northern Virginia.

The RNC is piling on with additional observers as fast as it can get them to polling stations.

“We will have extra observers present to monitor the tabulation of ballots affected by the scanner issues,” the committee posted.

The RNC's team also intervened in Ohio, where a bomb threat caused polling location Beverly Elementary School to be closed. Following RNC action, the school has been reopened for voting.

Northern Virginia suffered from an even stranger issue. Kaylee McGhee White claimed she and her husband checked in at their polling place Tuesday morning, only to be told he had already voted.

“Showed up, checked in, were immediately told a mail in ballot had already been submitted for my husband,” McGhee White wrote in an X post. “I cannot overstate how important it is to show up today. This would not have been caught if we had not gone in person.”

Poll workers eventually told her husband they had to cancel the mail ballot before he could vote in person, she said.

“We of course have no way to verify that this is what they did. But we did our part and showed up, and he was able to submit his ballot in person,” McGhee White posted.

McGhee White also claimed on X that the RNC’s Election Integrity team called her husband within five minutes of the initial complaint.

The integrity team is working feverishly to ensure voters are able to submit their ballots on Election Day.

“The RNC will NEVER stop fighting to protect the vote. See an issue? REPORT IT,” the committee posted.

The Department of Justice and the RNC Election Integrity team did not immediately respond to Blaze News’ requests for comment.
