The communist dictatorship of Nicolás Maduro in Venezuela has been committing a series of abuses and violations against children and teenagers, according to reports by Christian K. Caruzo, published on Breitbart.

The children are accused of participating in anti-Maduro protests this past July following rigged elections in which Venezuela’s dictator refused to acknowledge his loss to opposition leader Edmundo González.

According to the Venezuelan NGO Foro Penal, over 1,500 arrests were made between July and August this year. Among those detained were 129 children and teenagers (ages 12 to 18), as well as 14 indigenous people, 18 individuals with disabilities, and 200 women.

Theany Urbina, the mother of a 15-year-old boy named Miguel Urbina, revealed that her son was subjected to multiple acts of torture while in custody.

She told the Venezuelan outlet “Voz da América”:

“They electrocuted my son, forcing him to record a video saying he was paid to destroy the police station. He resisted, and they beat him. They made him hold a charged card [electric device] and also used a bag with a tear gas canister.”

These chilling accounts reported by Breitbart were corroborated in a new report released by Amnesty International yesterday, 28. While Amnesty International’s progressive and anti-Israel stances have been documented by TGP, the organization’s report confirms the terror and persecution unleashed by Maduro’s communist regime against its opposition.

In a shocking development, Venezuela’s “drug czar” and Interior Minister, Diosdado Cabello, admitted the arrests of children but shifted the blame to their parents for allegedly allowing them to protest against Maduro.

“They are pressuring us about the so-called political prisoners, the detained children. Where were those parents on July 29 and 30, allowing their children to attend protests? Why didn’t they care for their kids? Where were they? And now we’re the bad guys,” Cabello declared.

These disturbing incidents underscore the brutal nature of Maduro’s dictatorship and the grave human rights abuses taking place in Venezuela.

It’s been barely four months since Labour Leader Keir Starmer began his premiership, but it seems like ages, and his government feels tired and spent.

Besides ‘King of Freebies’ Starmer’s own scandals, the policies he has been sponsoring are a total sh**show, as he cuts pensioners’ fuel subsidies during the winter while he frees dangerous criminals from jail. As he doubles down on Ukraine warmongering while pushing for assisted suicide legislation. A horror.

So much so that millions of citizens have signed a petition calling for general election.

Now, another ‘minor’ scandal ecloses on Starmer’s lap, as British Transport Minister Louise Haigh resigned today (29) over a decade-old fraud conviction.

Associated Press reported:

“In a letter to Prime Minister Keir Starmer, Haigh said, “I remain totally committed to our political project, but I now believe it will be best served by my supporting you from outside government.

‘I appreciate that whatever the facts of the matter, this issue will inevitably be a distraction from delivering on the work of this government and the policies to which we are both committed’, she wrote.”

Haigh’s resignation came right after Sky News and The Times newspaper reported that Haigh had been charged with fraud over a decade ago.

She had reported a work cellphone stolen after getting mugged, but later said she had ‘mistakenly listed it among the stolen items’.

“After she found the phone and switched it back on, she was called in for questioning by police. Haigh pleaded guilty to fraud by misrepresentation and was given a conditional discharge.

In a statement before her resignation, Haigh said that ‘under the advice of my solicitor I pleaded guilty -– despite the fact this was a genuine mistake from which I did not make any gain. The magistrates accepted all of these arguments and gave me the lowest possible outcome (a discharge) available’.”

Haigh has been an MP for Sheffield, northern England, in Parliament since 2015, and named for Transport Minister after Starmer was elected in July.

Starmer appointed Heidi Alexander, former London transport system overseer, in Haigh’s place.

McColl Mayor Mayor George Garner II. Credit: Marlboro County E911

The troubled mayor of a little town in South Carolina was killed in a car crash earlier this week, just days after the city’s entire police force quit.

The State newspaper (based in Columbia) reported that 49-year-old McColl Mayor George Garner II died Tuesday after crashing into an 18-wheeler truck. Garner was reportedly driving west in a 2007 Chevrolet Tahoe when he moved into the eastbound lane and collided head-on with the vehicle.

Earlier this month, Garner won re-election in the town of roughly 2,000 residents.

Darlington County Coroner Todd Hardee revealed the accident occurred on S.C. 34 in Mechanicsville at about 2:40 p.m. and stated that Marlboro County deputies were pursuing Garner before the crash occurred.

He claimed the pursuit was to “protect” Garner’s “well-being.”

“When the incident occurred, Mr. Garner was being pursued by a Marlboro County deputy,” Hardee said in a press release. “The pursuit was not related to any laws being broken. The pursuit was taking place in an effort to protect the well-being of Mr. Garner.”

WBTW reported that Garner died at McLeod Regional Medical Center from his injuries. The truck driver was also hurt.

Before his death, Garner was connected to an active South Carolina Law Enforcement Division (SLED) investigation, which SLED’s Public Information Officer Renee Wunderlich described as “active and ongoing.” She refused to provide further details.

Last week, Police Chief Bob Hale and the four officers who served under Garner’s administration quit in anger late last week. In a Facebook post on Nov. 21, Police Chief Bob Hale said he and his officers had encountered “unwanted and malicious behavior” from Garner and the City Council.

Hale said the City Council refused to provide the funding necessary to update the police department’s equipment and he was subject to “repeated acts of harassment” and personal attacks on his character.

“Despite our efforts to address these issues professionally and through appropriate channels, the harassment and hostility have persisted,” Hale said.

Garner brushed off the resignations and said the town would move on and hire more officers.

“I hate to see them go. They were a great group. But we’re gonna continue on,” Garner stated.

 Baldwin and his Hollywood peers want to use their cinematic platforms to push their political agendas.

Actor Alec Baldwin, known more for his off-screen controversies than his on-screen performances, is once again lecturing Americans on what he perceives as their intellectual shortcomings.

The 66-year-old disgraced Hollywood figure, freshly cleared of involuntary manslaughter charges in the tragic shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the Rust film set, declared that Americans are “uninformed about reality” and need Hollywood to educate them.

Speaking at the Torino Film Festival while accepting a Lifetime Achievement Award, Baldwin claimed that Americans are incapable of understanding critical global issues like climate change, the conflict in Israel, or the war in Ukraine.

“Television news in the United States is a business. They have to make money… There’s a hole. There’s a vacuum. There is a gap, if you will, in information for Americans,” he said.

“Americans are very uninformed about reality – what’s really going on. With climate change, Ukraine, Israel… You name it, all the biggest topics in the world, Americans have an appetite for a little bit of information,” the disgraced actor added.

The actor suggested that the answer to America’s perceived ignorance lies in the hands of filmmakers, streaming giants, and Hollywood. According to Baldwin, “narrative films” and the “independent film industry” are the only means to educate the masses.

“That vacuum is filled by the film industry. Not just the independent film industry, not just the documentary film industry – which are very important around the world. But by narrative films, as well. Where the film-makers and the buyers, the studios, and the networks and the streamers, are willing to go that way. They’re willing to try it—not only entertainment but informative as well.”

The Defense (and Intelligence) budgets continue to climb.  However, the military shrinks and is distracted while China acts as a proxy for their proxy Russia and turns the Baltic into a Chinese lake and Chinese and Russian Nuclear Bombers exercise over the Sea of Japan with a message for Japan, South Korea, and the U.S.

In Fiscal Year 2024, $826.45 billion was enacted for DOD and $106 billion for the Intel Community.  I’m not feeling $932 billion of value in deterring a full and recognizable World War III.

The world is on fire and World War III is already in progress.  China and Russia inked the deal to challenge and topple America in the Fall of 2021 with the “No Limits” Partnership which also includes Iran, North Korea, and Venezuela as regional partners tasked with waging Grey Zone conflict around the world.  With multiple Iranian assassins (DOJ fails to mention that other Iranian Assassins are out there in this press release) operating with an intent to get President-Elect Trump, there needs to be great vigilance over an Iranian strike to disrupt the inauguration in January 2025.

To ready the United States, the incoming Trump Administration is reportedly preparing an Executive Order to “purge” Generals and Admirals.  The Deep Staters of the Blob are whispering hyperbole to what’s left of the legacy media to try to disrupt such an event.  They are incorrect (again) and need to study history and law.

Legal Authority and Precedent to remove Generals and Admirals?  Absolutely

There have been at least four large-scale “pluckings” before in the U.S. Military.  General George C. Marshall assumed the position of the Chief of Staff of the U.S. Army on the same day (September 1, 1939) that Germany crossed the border into Poland and World War II was formally realized.  Marshall convened retired military officers with the guidance that they were “empowered to remove from line promotion any officer for reasons deemed good and sufficient…Critical times are upon us.”

General Marshall did this board with two experiences searing his decision-making process.  The inter-war period had created an environment of seniority and allegiance to the system, not merit, nor war-winning experience and potential (sound familiar?).  In addition, General Marshall modeled his “plucking board” on a very similar process conducted by General John “Black Jack” Pershing in the run-up to America’s involvement in World War I.

There was a mini-Plucking Board 2.0 after the disastrous first American Army engagement at Kasserine Pass in World War II and additional Army Generals were removed.  Going back further in history, President Lincoln, during the Civil War, identified, selected, and promoted General U.S. Grant despite great resistance from the Army “blob” of the time.  Multiple Generals were removed during this process.  Without Lincoln standing up to the Deep State of the time, we would likely be two nations today, not one. The authority of the President in selection, promotion, retention, and removal is clear and distinct in the Constitution as the Commander of the Armed Forces and in U.S. Law.

Must address Military Academies, Government Boards, and Think Tanks

The compelling issue in the modern Plucking Board is the extreme and dangerous culture of “Woke-ism” that has created an intolerable drag co-efficient in the “Critical times” that are upon us with the World on Fire.  More is being spent on the National Security apparatus than ever before, yet U.S. capabilities and effectiveness are shrinking.  Foreign adversaries are flying drone swarms at will over U.S. facilities, yet the response is endless bureaucratic meetings and aggressive press releases.  The question is, where did the cancerous communist psychology of DEI/CRT/ and Woke-ism incubate and thrive to infect so many in the military (and intelligence services) and create such a dangerous drag-coefficient?

The virus petri dish for this sickness are none other than the Military Academies, Government advisory boards, and the think tanks.  West Point for example is actively fighting all reasonable Freedom of Information Act requests on their DEI/CRT curriculums.  The Air Force Academy openly pushes transgenderism.  The advisory boards are immensely influential in the creation of policies, strategies, and budgets in the national security community and are blatantly activist in promotion of woke-ism.  Likely the majority of the 51 lying Intel Officers (several are also General Officers) currently sit as Special Government Employees on these boards.  An immediate “Plucking Board” is needed to review, consolidate, and eliminate boards and woke members.  The shadow government of Federally Funded Research and Development Centers (FFRDCs), University Associated Research Centers (UARCs), and Laboratories such as Rand, Mitre, The Aerospace Corporation, and Institute for Defense Analyses are part of Woke World.  They definitely play a vital role, but they should reflect on their Woke activism and begin to self-purge leadership and culture in advance of formal guidance and direction of plucking.

They will be treated the same as they treated others (except this time, due process will be followed)

The nation is starting to re-enter the concept of “normal” and Constitutional which since the beginning of the Obama Administration in January 2008 was marginalized, weaponized, and criminalized by Obama, Biden, and Harris.  If someone reading this piece takes offense, they likely have been infected with the toxic nature of woke-ism and are part of the problem.  No one needs to fret or be concerned about the Golden Age now upon us as America re-aligns with Constitutional values.  Can Generals and Admirals be recalled to duty to face UCMJ actions?  Yes, it happens regularly, often for very good reasons – but don’t forget, the Biden Team was telegraphing a recall also to intimidate retired Officers and Senior Enlisted they felt were not supporting the Woke party line.  This is wrong and unlawful.

The “Plucking” is lawful and with ample precedent.  We live in very very critical times and plucking is necessary for the health, safety, and success of our great experiment of being a Constitutional Republic.  Anyone being plucked will have due process – something not granted by the previous team.

All viewpoints are personal and do not reflect the viewpoints of any organization.

In the wake of President-elect Trump’s decisive victory over Kamala Harris and taking both the Senate and the House, the Democrat Party is scrambling to redefine its future.

Instead of heeding the calls for moderation and introspection, the party appears poised to double down on the radical left-wing policies that voters overwhelmingly rejected in 2024.

Among the potential candidates for 2028 are some of the most extreme figures in American politics, including Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), California Governor Gavin Newsom, and Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer, The Hill reported.

The news outlet reported:

Democrats have long been impressed with Ocasio-Cortez’s ability to “cut through the BS and tell it like it is,” the second Democratic strategist said.

“She’s somebody who can cut through the noise and doesn’t talk like Washington.”

Democrats say Ocasio-Cortez would be a magnet for young voters and would have little trouble using social media, podcasts and other online tools, as she has been doing since she was elected to Congress in 2018.

While Ocasio-Cortez was once aligned with progressives including Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), she has since backed more centrist candidates.

Still, some Democrats say she still represents a more leftist wing of the party to some voters, something that could hurt her if she pursues higher office.

“She and the ‘squad’ started pushing too hard, too fast,” the first strategist said. “D.C. doesn’t work that way. And our party doesn’t work that way. We need to get back to the basics.”

At just 35 years old, AOC has skyrocketed from a bartender in the Bronx to the ultra-leftist firebrand who brought us such hits as the Green New Deal, Twitter clapbacks, and enough socialist slogans to make Karl Marx proud.

The left has long admired AOC’s ability to “cut through the BS and tell it like it is.” Translation: she tweets loudly, dramatically, and often inaccurately.

Her track record isn’t exactly inspiring. Remember when she cost New York City 25,000 jobs by opposing Amazon’s HQ2? Or when she compared border detention facilities to “concentration camps,” only to be fact-checked into oblivion?

These gaffes might play well with her Twitter following, but for the average voter, they highlight a troubling lack of seriousness.

But AOC is not alone in this radical leftist brigade. Other top potential nominees include Kamala Harris, coastal elite, California Governor Gavin Newsom; the pandemic politician, Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer; and the weak-on-crime and out-of-touch governors Josh Shapiro of Pennsylvania and JB Pritzker of Illinois.

Early names also include Senator Raphael Warnock of Georgia, as well as Governors Wes Moore of Maryland, Andy Beshear of Kentucky, and Phil Murphy of New Jersey, according to The Hill.

Now that counting has finally been completed in lawless California, where elections no longer take place, a mad dash of ballot harvesting and illegal voters determines elections in the Golden State today.

Republicans lost their final seat when Derek Tran ousted Michelle Steel after three weeks of counting and collecting suspect ballots in Orange County. Tran was declared the winner the day before Thanksgiving.

The Republicans will hold their smallest lead when Congress convenes in January.

Leftist CNN’s Harry Enten, a senior data analyst, sounded the alarm on the historically slim GOP majority, pointing out that if current projections hold, the Republican advantage could be the smallest in nearly a century.

As it stands, Republicans are projected to hold just 220 seats compared to the Democrats’ 215. This razor-thin margin leaves little room for error, particularly as President Trump has announced nominations for three key Republican members—Elise Stefanik, Matt Gaetz, and Mike Waltz—to join his administration.

Trump’s recent nominations of Representatives Mike Waltz, Matt Gaetz, and Elise Stefanik to his administration. Their anticipated departures would lower the Republican count to just 217.

With their departure, the GOP majority would shrink to a mere 217 seats. That means Republicans will hold only a two-seat advantage when Congress convenes in January.

They cannot afford to lose ONE VOTE to Democrats!

Harry Enten: My goodness gracious. Yes, the Republicans are going to control the House of Representatives. But if all the current results hold up, we’re looking at a record-small majority after the Novembers in the last 90 years.

You have to go all the way back to the Herbert Hoover administration to find an even smaller majority after the November elections.

We’re talking about the Republicans with 220 seats and the Democrats with 215 if the current House results hold. Keep in mind that this will drop lower if Stefanik, Waltz, or others like Matt Gaetz leave Congress.

CNN reporter: Talk to me. This is the best-case scenario for Republicans, at least for the next few weeks or months. Where could it go?

Harry Enten: Where could it go? It could shrink even further. Let’s say Gaetz, Stefanik, and Waltz resigned. We could be looking at—get this—Republicans at 217, the Democrats at 215, and I went all the way back. Look, this is crazy. This is crazy, right? Because all it means is Democrats at 215 plus one GOP seat could tank the entire thing because then both sides would be at 216 seats, John…

…You might have noticed in my last answer, I was so excited I nearly got ahead of myself. How historically unprecedented it is. I love history. Sometimes just one majority member could sink a bill by voting with the minority in the last 100 years plus. This, possibly 2025, with the likely resignations from the House. And that’s it. It’s literally the only time in the last 100 years, assuming, of course, all members vote.

So the bottom line is, look, the results from the November elections weren’t exactly good for Democrats, but this is a shining light for them. They really did hold the Republican majority down. And given the likely resignations that are coming, that House of Representatives for the Republicans—that House majority—is going to be record small.

This is why cheating matters. This is why Republicans must continue to battle election fraud. This could be disastrous for the Trump agenda.

FaithSponsor.com partners with over 15 Christian orphanages in Uganda and Nigeria.

As families across America gather around bountiful tables this Thanksgiving, a group of Christian orphans in Uganda is offering a heartfelt message of gratitude to the readers of The Gateway Pundit and supporters of FaithSponsor.com

FaithSponsor.com was started by January 6 Political Prisoner Jake Lang in the depths of solitary confinement inside the Washington DC Jail Gulag.

He has done 1400+ of cruel and unusual punishment at the hands of the Biden Regime without a trial.

These children, who face unimaginable poverty and hunger, have found hope through the love of God, the generosity of our readers, and a renewed sense of purpose thanks to life-saving donations that include livestock like goats and chickens and the promise of a brighter future.

In a land where hunger is a daily reality, the simple addition of farm animals has transformed their lives.

The goats now provide rich, nutrient-dense milk, vital for growing children who often survive on meager meals made from emergency cornmeal sacks.

These “mudcakes,” as they’re known, barely sustain them, leaving them on the brink of starvation. But with every glass of milk and every egg from the newly gifted chickens, these children are beginning to thrive.

For the first time, they have consistent sources of protein—true miracles delivered through the generosity of FaithSponsor.com donors.

*** CLICK HERE TO DONATE TO THESE FATHERLESS ORPHANS ***

More than just physical nourishment, these children are receiving spiritual sustenance. Every day, they gather to study the Bible, learning about God’s boundless love and finding strength in their faith.

The volunteer caretakers, who dedicate their lives to showing these little ones the compassion of Christ, serve as a daily reminder of God’s provision. For children who have known loss and struggle beyond their years, this Christian foundation is a source of unshakable hope.

FaithSponsor.com stands out as a beacon of transparency and effectiveness in a world where donations often vanish into the coffers of bloated multinational organizations.

This unique charity operates without middlemen, ensuring every dollar goes directly to the orphanages, providing homesteads, Christian education, and tangible resources that change lives. There is no corporate overhead, no waste—just pure, unfiltered love in action.

*** SPONSOR A CHILD HERE ***

And while their lives are improving day by day, these orphans remain mindful of others in need of hope. Every night, their prayers rise to Heaven for the January 6 prisoners, whom they call “the brave ones.”

With childlike faith, they ask for these men and women to be reunited with their families and for justice to prevail.

These prayers, spoken in the innocence of children who have faced their own suffering, serve as a powerful reminder of the interconnectedness of faith, freedom, and hope.

This Thanksgiving, the children have created a beautiful video expressing their thanks and love. They sing songs of gratitude, share their prayers, and show the farm animals that are helping them survive and thrive.

It is a testament to the power of faith and the incredible impact that even the smallest act of kindness can have on those in need.

As you watch their video and see their joy, consider how you can be part of this mission. A donation of just a few dollars can provide a life-saving meal, another farm animal, or the resources to teach the Gospel to children who desperately need to hear it.

These acts of generosity not only transform lives but also serve as a testament to God’s faithfulness, showing the world what love in action truly looks like.

This Thanksgiving, let us be reminded of our blessings and answer the call to share them with those less fortunate. Visit FaithSponsor.com today to make a direct impact.

These children are counting on us, and together, we can provide them with the love, care, and future they deserve.

During and after the 2024 Election, at least 57 polling locations across the country received bomb threats. Was this a targeted operation by Russia, China, or the Deep State?

A report from NBC from election night claimed that at least 50 election locations were targeted across multiple battleground states with bomb threats.

Hoax bomb threats targeting polling places and election offices briefly disrupted voting in five battleground states, with the FBI saying the threats in four of those states came from Russian email domains. The origin of the threats in the fifth state was not clear.

The threats targeted at least 50 sites across Georgia, Pennsylvania, Arizona, Wisconsin and Michigan, authorities said.

…The Russian Embassy in the U.S. said any accusation that it was behind the threats was “vicious slander” and “nonsense,” according to the government-owned news service RIA Novosti.

In Pennsylvania there were at least 13 voting locations throughout the state that reported bomb threats. The threats were reportedly received via email. Most were reported on election day.

An email announcing a bomb threat at the Chester County Government Services Center on 601 Westtown Road in West Chester was sent to Chester County Voter Services on Tuesday night, shortly before polls closed, according to investigators.

Chester County Emergency Officials responded to the building which was evacuated. The Chester County Sheriff’s Office K9 Unit conducted a sweep and determined the threat was unfounded. The building was later reopened.

The FBI blamed this incident [email] being from overseas origin. Does anyone trust this guy?

Officials said fake bomb threats targeting polling places in Pennsylvania and other swing states on Election Day appear to be Russian in origin. Full story HERE: https://t.co/XyVnonraGB pic.twitter.com/28h0DC9AAO

— NBC10 Philadelphia (@NBCPhiladelphia) November 6, 2024

The threats impacted polling places in Philadelphia as well, officials said.

Philadelphia police said they responded to bomb threats at the following locations between 6:43 p.m. and 6:55 p.m. on Tuesday:

The 900 block of South 7th Street

The 1000th block of South 4th Street

The 400 block of Queen Street

The 700 block of Catharine Street

The 1100 block of Catharine Street

The 200 block of Washington Avenue

The 900 block of Federal Street

The 1200 block of Wharton Street

The 1200 block of Carpenter Street

The 1000th block of East Erie Avenue

Police said all of the locations were searched by K-9 units and had negative results.

During a Tuesday night press conference, District Attorney Larry Krasner said there were also fake bomb threats at polling places on 1013 Elsworth Street and 66th Street and Chester Avenue in Philadelphia.

Krasner said both threats were unfounded. During one of the incidents, a man walked into a polling place and made a verbal threat but was later detained, according to Krasner.

In Georgia at least 12 locations were targeted with bomb threats.

In Georgia the corrupt Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger stated that there were between 5 and 7 precincts that reported bomb threats. He also blamed these on Russia. It was no surprise that Raffensperger provided no evidence that threats were indeed from Russia but he claimed they were while not knowing how many precincts received threats.

Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger confirmed Tuesday a bomb threat was made against a polling place, but he said it was of Russian origin and not credible. Raffensperger later clarified in a subsequent press conference that the threat affected between five and seven precincts in multiple Georgia counties.

Another account from Georgia reported that at least 34 bomb threats were received at five locations in Fulton County, two locations in Gwinnett County, and five locations in DeKalb county, for a total of 12 locations. The threats were apparently through email.

Raffensperger, a Republican, did not elaborate on how exactly state officials determined the bomb threats came from Russia.

The non-credible threats caused the temporary closure of polling places at the Etris Community Center and Gullatt Elementary in Union City, just outside of Atlanta, according to Fulton County Police. Union City’s population is nearly 90% Black, according to the US Census Bureau.

Fulton County announced that five polling places affected by the bomb threats will have their hours extended.

Robb Pitts, chair of the Fulton County Board of Commissioners, told CNN earlier he did not anticipate any potential delayed poll closings would impact the county’s ability to swiftly report results this evening.

A total of 32 bomb threats were made against the five polling places, Fulton County Police Chief W. Wade Yates said.

Two Gwinnett County election precincts sharing the same physical space will remain open until 7:58 p.m. ET after briefly closing Tuesday due to a received threat, Joe Sorenson, Gwinnett County spokesperson, told CNN.

The precincts in Gwinnett County were evacuated for approximately an hour while the bomb threat, which was deemed non-credible, was investigated.

Five additional polling places in DeKalb County were temporarily closed around 5 p.m. on Tuesday due to bomb threats and their voting hours were extended. These threats also appeared to originate from Russia, according to Raffensperger.

DeKalb County police said they did not find any bombs at any of the threatened polling places.

An FBI statement said it was aware of the threats but did not address their source.

“Election integrity and protecting our community is our highest priority, and the FBI is working closely with state and local law enforcement partners to respond to election threats and protect our communities as Americans exercise their right to vote,” the FBI said in a statement.

The statement said the bureau has no information to indicate the threat is credible.

One voter, Michael Osborne, said he believed something was wrong the moment he pulled up to his Union City polling site Tuesday morning and spotted EMS and police vehicles around the building. An officer told him and other voters they couldn’t enter the site to vote because of a bomb threat.

“They had to remove all the workers, they couldn’t let anyone in until they assessed the threats,” said Osborne.

After the election, there were seven counties in California that reported bomb threats. All were received via email.

2024 STEAL: After Reported Bomb Threats at Seven California Election Centers – No Bombs – But Multiple GOP House Seats Turned Blue

In summary:

At least 57 polling locations across the country received bomb threats during and after the 2024 election.
Election counting stopped when the police arrived to check the facilities.
No evidence of what occurred during the bomb threat reviews is available to date. 
Some of these facilities were left open for additional hours on election night after the bomb threat review was complete.
