Trump met with a convicted election tamperer in the Oval Office to discuss midterm "PLANS" — and a Trump ally let it slip on live TV.
Ed Martin, a former Justice Department official, told Real America's Voice that Donald Trump sat down in the Oval Office about two hours earlier with Tina Peters, the former Colorado clerk convicted over a breach of her county's voting equipment. The topic, per Martin: "election integrity," and "the plans."
What plans? Martin wouldn't say. But he offered a clue about where this is headed. Congress stalled the SAVE America Act, which would impose new citizenship documentation and ID requirements for federal elections. "If the Congress won't pass the Save America Act, and they won't," Martin said, "then the president's going to have to do what he's going to do, and it is not a local issue when it's national security."
That’s not a security issue! It’s an unconstitutional threat!
A Trump ally just suggested the president may act alone on elections if Congress won't give him what he wants, weeks before voters go to the polls. Martin even conceded elections are under local control, then argued that "national security" gives Washington a role anyway.
His evidence? An August letter from DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin claiming voting machines use parts from China and Russia and are therefore "compromised." But that letter's own review found no voting system had been compromised and no votes had been changed. Mullin used it to tie federal security grants to random manual audits of paper ballots.
The company in the room is telling, too. Peters was convicted in 2024 on seven counts, four of them felonies, after prosecutors said she let an unauthorized person access Mesa County's election system while hunting for evidence of 2020 fraud. Colorado Gov. Jared Polis reduced her sentence earlier this year under heavy pressure from Trump. Now she's reportedly advising the president on election policy.
Host Eric Bolling then cited Fox News' $787.5 million settlement with Dominion as proof that machines were "compromised." It proves the opposite: Fox paid that sum because it aired false claims about the 2020 election. Martin dismissed the case as "lawfare" and repeated the false claim that no 2020 lawsuits reached the merits.
Martin never said what Trump might do. That's the point. A president meeting a convicted election tamperer about secret "plans," while an ally warns he'll go it alone, is exactly the kind of ambiguity that should make all voters nervous.
