The Pentagon isn’t sending overseas troops their ballots. Meanwhile, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services is refusing to tell Iowa which of its voters are illegal immigrants.

From Townhall. Republican lawmakers demand answers from the Pentagon after military service members complained that they have not received enough absentee ballots to vote before Election Day.

Post a prayer for your state!

 

GOP Reps. Brian Mast (R-FL), Bill Huizenga (R-MI), and Mike Waltz (R-FL) sent a letter to Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin citing their “grave concern over deficiencies in the Defense Department’s protocols” for the U.S. military because they said the absentee ballot stockpile has been “depleted and had not been replenished.”

“Our nation’s brave men and women in uniform brought to our attention that there has been inadequate education at the administrative level on how to register to vote, request an absentee ballot, and fill in a federal write-in absentee ballot if their state-issued ballot does not arrive in time,” the letter reads. “Other service members also stated that when a request for a federal write-in absentee ballot was made, they were told the base’s stockpile of such ballots was depleted and had not been replenished.” …

The Republicans demanded that the Pentagon take extraordinary measures to ensure that the nation’s “elite warriors” have an opportunity to cast their vote in the upcoming election. …

From The Daily Wire. More than 2,100 people on Iowa’s voter rolls self-declared as non-citizens when registering for drivers licenses, Iowa Secretary of State Paul D. Pate said.

He provided the names to US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), which researched each name and determined that at least 250 are still non-citizens — but refused to tell Iowa which ones, Pate said.

Meanwhile, left-wing groups sued to block him from directing local officials to challenge votes cast by people on the list on the basis that the data wasn’t fully confirmed.

“The Des Moines Field Office [of USCIS] has since informed us that they had completed a review of every name. Now, the office in Washington, D.C. is refusing to let the Des Moines office share those results with us. This information would be critical to Iowa’s election officials in this process,” Pater wrote in an October 31 letter. …

Pate said he has asked the federal Department of Justice to intervene, but it refused. That led him to resort to seeking intervention from the state’s senators, Chuck Grassley and Joni Ernst, both Republicans. The pair wrote to USCIS Director Ur Jaddou to demand that he provide the data by November 1, but he did not, they said.

“Anything short of the information Secretary Pate requested is unacceptable. Iowa has worked in good faith to secure its electoral process and safeguard Americans’ cherished right to vote. Unfortunately, USCIS’ stonewalling has led to more questions than answers,” they said in a statement. …

Update: On Sunday evening, a federal judge sided with Iowa, saying no one disputed that at least some names on the list were, in fact, noncitizens who registered to vote, and “it would not be appropriate for the court to respond by granting injunctive relief that effectively forces local election officials to allow ineligible voters to vote.”

Amen. Father God you never sleep and you never slumber. Your eye is upon the righteous and your ear is open to their cry. Lord, we ask that you continue to bring to light what is being done in the darkness. Thank you Jesus for being our advocate and ruling in fairness and justice. We pray that every soldier would be able to vote and that their votes would be counted. We also pray that all non citizens would not be able to vote and that their votes would be intercepted and voided in Jesus name.

Believers ultimate comfort is knowing it is God who is in control, not man. God knows and sees everything…especially what is in each person’s heart. This ongoing spiritual battle is between God and Satan and God wins. Humans throughout life choose to align with good and God, or evil and Satan. In the end we will all have our judgement day before God. Our eternal lives will be determined by God alone. Heaven or Hell. Keep God in your heart, mind, soul and focus along with your daily prayers to him. Dear heavily Father hear our prayers. for your will to be done in all we are encountering in today’s world. Amen
“How can I learn to trust that God is in control?” “God has resolved to do what He will do, and nothing and no one stands in His way. “I make known the end from the beginning, from ancient times, what is still to come. I say: My purpose will stand, and I will do all that I please” (Isaiah 46:10). This is our powerful, purposeful God who is in control of everything. That should bring us great comfort and help to alleviate our fears.” https://www.gotquestions.org/God-is-in-control.html
