- The Supporters Urging Trump to Declare Martial Law for the Midterms
Of all the outside advisers urging President Trump to seize control of federal elections this fall, the attorney Peter Ticktin can claim the deepest ties; the two men went to military school together as teenagers. In 2022, Ticktin helped Trump sue Hillary Clinton. This year, he pushed Trump to secure a pardon for Tina Peters, a former Colorado clerk convicted of charges related to tampering with election equipment.Which is why it might be worth listening when Ticktin says that Trump could do something soon to take over elections. “He’s the only one that I know for sure has the understanding of the severity of it,” Ticktin told us this month before taking the stage at an election-skeptic conference in Las Vegas. The way Ticktin sees it, there are three possible outcomes this fall. The first—a smooth election—won’t happen in his view because, he claims without evidence, Democrats already cheated in the primaries. The second is that Trump takes action before the election to prevent cheating. The last option is that Trump tries to declare martial law on or around November 3. “Either martial law, or step aside,” he told us about Trump’s choices in the last scenario. When we asked about the prospect of riots if Trump tries to overturn the election results, Ticktin said he was not concerned. “Believe me, our armed forces are a lot bigger than they are,” he said. Trump has already tried to claim greater federal control over elections, which under the Constitution are administered primarily at the state and local level. In February, he said Republicans should nationalize voting in at least 15 places. In August, when the television and radio host Wayne Allyn Root pushed Trump to declare a “national-security emergency” to require proof of citizenship, voter ID, and other measures, Trump played coy: “Let me just say that stranger things have happened, okay? I’ll leave it at that.” Later that month, Trump posted a Root column on the topic, with a headline that described the plan as “foolproof.” Peters announced after meeting with Trump in June that the president “basically said to his lead counsel to do what I was asking.” In a prime-time address at the Republican midterm convention in Dallas, Trump again repeated the false claim that he had won the 2020 election, and sarcastically encouraged his supporters to “cheat like hell” in the upcoming elections.[Read: Trump’s dream world in Dallas]To… [TheTopNews] Read More.1 week ago - Dominion still has pending lawsuits against election deniers such as Rudy Giulia...
[TheTopNews] Read More.1 week ago - The ICE Officer in Austin Wasn’t Wearing a Body CamSign up for Inside the Trump Presidency, a newsletter featuring coverage of the second Trump term.The ICE officer who shot a Venezuelan man last weekend in Austin was a recent hire who was not wearing his body camera, three officials at the Department of Homeland Security with knowledge of the incident told me. The officer, who has not been publicly identified, was hired last year, according to two of the officials, but he previously worked for another federal law-enforcement agency, one of the officials said. The officials were not authorized to discuss the investigation into the shooting, which left Wilber Rafael Garcés Pérez with a bullet lodged in his upper torso, according to his attorney.ICE officials have rushed to distribute body-worn cameras to officers since the fatal shootings in July of a Mexican construction contractor in Texas and a Colombian delivery driver in Maine. Officers making arrests are required to have the cameras at all times. The agency has directed officers to activate the devices prior to engaging in enforcement activity, the three officials said, and ICE instructs them to stop recording only when the incident has safely concluded. Officers who do not follow these instructions are required to submit a written statement to their supervisors and could face possible disciplinary action, the three officials said.DHS and ICE public-affairs officials did not immediately respond to questions about the incident in Austin and whether the officer will face consequences.On Sunday, the officer was working with a partner who was driving in a separate vehicle. That second officer had a body-worn camera that was turned on, two officials told me. The officers were checking license plates using a system that helps them find targets for arrest using commercial databases and federal immigration files. When they ran the plates from the blue Toyota Corolla driven by Garcés Pérez, the officers saw he had an outstanding deportation order from an immigration judge.The ICE officers, who were driving unmarked vehicles, attempted to pull Garcés Pérez over, but he drove away, nearly striking one of the officers, according to one of the DHS officials. The official said the incident was recorded by the body camera of the ICE officer’s partner. The officers followed Garcés Pérez in their vehicles. The officer without the body camera found Garcés Pérez and attempted to detain him. When Garcés Pérez attempted to drive away again, that officer pulled his gun and… [TheTopNews] Read More.1 week ago

Halliburton has signed two non-binding agreements aimed at supporting new oil and natural gas development projects in Venezuela, expanding the energy services company’s involvement as international firms explore opportunities in the country’s energy sector. The Houston-based company announced on September 21 that it will work with Eneva SA, Brazil’s largest private natural gas operator, to identify potential natural gas development opportunities in Venezuela. Halliburton also signed a separate memorandum of understanding with engineering firm West-Construcciones CA, or WESCA, to support field development and planning activities. The agreements represent another step in Halliburton’s potential return to a market where it previously maintained significant operations. The company reduced and ultimately shut down its primary Venezuelan activities in 2020 as U.S. sanctions and political tensions limited energy-sector business in the country. Halliburton is one of the world’s largest providers of oilfield services, including drilling, hydraulic fracturing, well construction, reservoir evaluation, and production technologies. Its expertise could become important as Venezuela attempts to restore aging energy infrastructure and increase oil and natural gas production. The latest agreements come as several U.S. and international companies examine possible investments in Venezuela. Chevron has announced plans to expand its Venezuelan operations, while ExxonMobil has held discussions with government officials about a potential return. Venezuela holds more than 303 billion barrels of proven crude oil reserves, the largest total in the world, according to OPEC data cited by Transport Topics. The Trump administration has also encouraged U.S. energy companies to explore opportunities in Venezuela as part of its broader effort to increase oil supplies. In August, the White House announced a partnership involving North American Blue Energy Partners that includes development rights covering 17 Venezuelan oil fields. Administration officials have said increased Venezuelan production could eventually contribute to greater global energy supply, though analysts have cautioned that rebuilding the country’s deteriorated infrastructure could require years and substantial investment. For Halliburton, the agreements with Eneva and WESCA do not yet represent binding commitments to begin major projects. Instead, they establish frameworks for identifying development opportunities and providing technical support if projects move forward. The company’s renewed interest comes as Venezuela’s energy industry seeks outside capital, technology, and expertise to increase production. Years of underinvestment, infrastructure deterioration, sanctions, and operational challenges have limited output despite the country’s enormous oil reserves. If projects advance, Halliburton could provide technology and oilfield services needed to develop wells, improve production, and support natural… [TheTopNews] Read More.1 week ago
