Former Fox News host Steve Hilton is running for governor of California, and while hopeful, he's well aware that the election system is rigged.

“There’s a line in the law that says that actually, the proof that you mailed your ballot on or just before Election Day — even if it arrives after Election Day — it’s not just the postmark. You can write it. You can handwrite the date,” Hilton said on “Hot Mics with Billy Bush.”

“I had a whistleblower from the postal service explaining this. So just to be really clear what that means: You can backdate your ballot by hand and it will be counted. That’s how insane this system is,” he added.

“You say ‘fraud’s happening, fraud’s happening,'" Blaze Media co-founder Glenn Beck comments, “No. A lot of it is legal. They have rigged the system.”

“They have made it so nobody’s breaking any laws. Nobody’s going to go to jail. It’s all part of the system,” he adds.

And Jason Buttrill agrees, noting that an election insider he has spoken to has explained how they do this and why it requires “many days of voting.”

“They can see the Election Day turnout, determine the deficit, and immediately go out and find all the votes they need,” Buttrill tells Glenn.

“Now, this is exactly what we’ve been thinking about, but we’ve been calling it fraud,” he says.

“Now here’s the kicker. This is all perfectly legal in blue states because of blue-state laws. … The thing that we really need to be focusing on here is the laws that are disenfranchising millions of voters in many of these states where they have just atrocious election laws,” he adds.

The U.S. Supreme Court will let the Trump administration make the case this fall that a pair of Obama judges erred in their 2024 ruling regarding the detention of criminal noncitizens.

Criminal foreigners and their complaints

Carol Williams Black is a Jamaican male who entered the United States in 1983 and subsequently obtained legal permanent residency.

'No substantive-due-process right to a bond hearing.'

Black was captured in 2019 by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, which determined both that the Jamaican was removable under federal immigration law due to his criminal conviction for sexual abuse and endangerment of a child and that he should remain in detention until his removal.

Keisy G.M. is a man in his late 30s from the Dominican Republican who entered the U.S. in 2011, obtained permanent residency, and has since lived in New York. In light of G.M.'s 2015 guilty plea to second-degree assault, ICE arrested G.M. in 2020 and got the ball rolling on his deportation.

Both foreigners — Black, who was detained for seven months, and G.M., who was detained for 21 months — filed legal complaints alleging that their detentions without bond hearings amounted to violations of their due process rights.

A panel consisting of a pair of Obama-appointed circuit court judges — Hong Kong-born Denny Chin and Susan Carney — reviewed the criminal noncitizens' cases and held in 2024 that "the constitutional guarantee of due process precludes a noncitizen's unreasonably prolonged detention under [8 U.S.C. § 1226(c)] without a bond hearing."

Trump administration asks for review

The Trump administration urged the U.S. Supreme Court in January to review whether the court of appeals erred in holding that due process requires bond hearings for criminal aliens detained under Section 1226(c) like Black and G.M., and whether there is a point at which such detention becomes "unreasonably prolonged."

The administration also asked the high court to review the appellate court's holding that due process requires placing the burden on the government to justify continued detention by a heightened standard.

"Section 1226(c) detainees have no procedural-due-process right to a bond hearing on matters that are 'not material' to the 'statutory scheme,'" attorneys for the government noted in their petition. "And where, as here, detention bears a reasonable relation to legitimate immigration purposes — such as 'preventing deportable criminal aliens from fleeing' or 'continu[ing] to engage in crime' while their removal proceedings are pending ... — Section 1226(c) detainees have no substantive-due-process right to a bond hearing either."

The government's attorneys noted further that the U.S. Supreme Court must provide clarity on the matter, especially since the Eighth Circuit Court "disagrees with the Second and Third Circuits about whether a Section 1226(c) detainee has a due-process right to a bond hearing when his detention becomes 'unreasonable,'" and the Second and Third Circuit courts disagree about "how to determine when Section 1226(c) detention has reached that point."

The American Civil Liberties Union lawyers who are representing the criminal noncitizens unsuccessfully begged the high court not to grant review.

The ACLU lawyers claimed in an April brief that the Trump administration was advancing "an extreme theory"; that the disagreement between the lower courts was little more than a "shallow split"; and that "these cases are strikingly poor vehicles" because Black has left the country and G.M. was released from detention in 2022.

Cecillia Wang, an ACLU lawyer who represents both criminal foreigners, said in a statement obtained by Reuters, "The court of appeals got it right, and we will defend ⁠our fundamental due process principles at the Supreme Court."

"The Constitution protects all of us, regardless of immigration status, from being locked away without due process," Wang continued. "[U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement] cannot detain immigrants — separating families and cutting people off from their communities — for months or even years on end without a bond hearing."

The U.S. Supreme Court agreed on Monday to take up the case but could ultimately dismiss it as moot.

The court is reportedly expected to hear arguments in the case in its next term.

California Democrat Gov. Gavin Newsom says that he and his wife are under investigation by the Department of Justice and claims the president ordered the probe.

Newsom accused President Donald Trump of targeting him because he "consistently" calls out the president, who he said was the most corrupt in U.S. history.

'We have nothing to hide. Mr. President, come after me.'

"Today, my wife & I joined Donald Trump’s hit list. He has directed his Department of Justice to investigate us," the governor wrote in a post on social media Monday.

"They have not found a crime — they are simply trying to find one," he added. "He isn't coming after me because of mean tweets, but because I am considering running for President."

Newsom posted a video in which he expanded on the accusations.

"He's coming after my wife, Jen, a public servant, a woman who’s dedicated her life to supporting women and girls, someone who has done nothing wrong other than having the temerity to advocate for what she believes in," he said. "If they can't intimidate me, they'll go after the mother of our children."

He then addressed the president directly.

"I have a message for you," Newsom said. "You can subpoena my records. You can investigate me. You can harass me. Put my name on every and any enemies list you have, but leave my wife and family out of your personal vendetta."

He also apologized to his wife over the investigation and said that investigators looking for corruption should look at Trump instead.

The DOJ declined a request for comment from NBC News.

Newsom has previously positioned his administration in California as the foremost state opposition to Trump and his policies. Many believe the rhetoric is intended to amplify Newsom as a possible presidential candidate for 2028.

"We have nothing to hide. Mr. President, come after me," he concluded. "I am not going anywhere. The country is watching."

A 25-year-old male is accused of shooting to death his mother, father, brother, and his brother's girlfriend last week in Michigan.

Gage Pierce appeared before a Livonia judge Friday for the first time since he was charged in connection with the quadruple homicide, WXYZ-TV reported. Livonia is just over 20 minutes west of Detroit.

'My heart goes out to them. It really does. The community is hurting over this.'

Pierce faces four counts of first-degree murder and four counts of felony firearm, WXYZ reported, adding that Pierce's bond was denied.

Pierce tried to speak on his own behalf during the arraignment, but the station said his attorney quickly shut down the attempt.

More from WXYZ:

Prosecutors say Pierce used a semiautomatic rifle to shoot and kill his mother, Holly Kimball; his father, Sterling Pierce; his brother, Tanner Pierce; and Tanner's girlfriend, Nevaeh Finch, at the family home Tuesday.

The home has since become a memorial. Family members gathered there Friday to observe what would have been Tanner's 23rd birthday.

Tanner's uncle made sure to wish his beloved nephew a happy birthday Friday at the family home.

"You'll never be forgotten. You achieved so much at such a young age ... you were perfect. Love you, man. Happy birthday," the victim's uncle said through tears, according to the station.

Nevaeh Finch's heartbroken mother, Shelly, told WXYZ over the phone that she watched the arraignment while making funeral arrangements for her daughter, whose birthday is July 9.

"She's just a — she's a good kid," her mother told the station. "Right now I have to try to, you know, pick her last outfit she's ever going to wear."

Prior to a planned Saturday fundraiser at Mulligan's Pub & Grub in Farmington Hills, owner Robert Mckiddie told WXYZ he was a friend of the suspect's father for nearly two decades, and that Sterling Pierce also was a regular at the pub.

"He's always called me his brother every time we parted ways ... and I loved him like a brother," Mckiddie added to the station.

WXYZ said a $20 donation at the door of the pub would go directly toward funeral costs for the suspect's mother, father, and brother — and that the fundraising event also will serve as a place for the community to gather, grieve, and share stories.

Mckiddie added to WXYZ that "my heart goes out to them. It really does. The community is hurting over this. All the money in the world will not make a difference to anybody. But it might help them get through what they have to get through. That's a lot they have to deal with."

The following video shows images inside and outside the pub during the fundraiser.

Pierce is expected back in court June 25, the station said.

Officials said police around 5:30 p.m. June 9 found the bodies of Holly Kimball, 53, and Sterling Pierce, 58, on the backyard patio of their home in the 19300 block of Rensellor Street, and the bodies of Tanner Pierce, 22, and Nevaeh Finch, 21, in a bedroom of the home. A dog in the home was found with a gunshot wound to the leg, police said, adding that the dog was taken to veterinary emergency services for treatment.

Gage Pierce was taken into custody at the home, police said.
