I still prefer national broadcast commentator Rush Limbaugh's idea; mail in your ballot selections with income tax forms. If into using the web: same procedure - with tampering risk absorbed by voter-taxpayer.

All that's need to do is synch tax date with election date. Rushbo has such a good idea it won't happen.

I do not believe the SecTreas alone can trigger Terrorism Risk Insurance Act. The SecDef and Attorney General must agree - with veto still held by POTUS.

 

The following "news" article (actually a Leftist opinion piece) exhibits an outrageous bias against conservative members of Congress; however, there's useful information to be gleaned from it. This opinion piece is all about "don't panic" when in fact some serious threat has been detected. Sure, one should never panic; however, one must prepare and if an attack is on the doorstep, the people must be informed.

WASHINGTON, Feb 14 (Reuters) - The chairman of the U.S. House of Representatives intelligence committee issued an unusual cryptic statement on Wednesday saying the committee had made available to all members of Congress information about an unspecified "serious national security threat" that sources said was related to Russia.

"I am requesting that President Biden declassify all information relating to this threat so that Congress, the Administration, and our allies can openly discuss the actions necessary to respond to this threat," Representative Mike Turner said in the statement.

He provided no further information, and his office did not immediately respond to requests for further comment.
Two sources familiar with the issue said Turner's statement was related to Russia and operations in space, without providing further details on what was described as a highly-classified matter.

A source familiar with the matter said Warner and Rubio had been briefed on the threat two weeks ago. The source said the issue was not unrelated to the security spending bill, but there is no direct tie between them.
