As the conflict between Israel and Iran, and its proxies, continues unabated, there is increasing interest in whether the Iranians have the capability to produce a nuclear bomb.
Iran is still denying it is trying to produce nuclear weapons, despite a mountain of evidence suggesting otherwise.
So what is the reality?The Epoch Times has spoken to a former deputy director general of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Ollie Heinonen, and a key figure in the Iranian opposition, Shahin Gobadi, about Iran’s nuclear program.
On Oct. 26, Israel bombed several military targets inside Iran in retaliation for an Iranian drone and missile attack on Israel on Oct. 1.

LAS VEGAS—Triple-tier battleground state Nevada’s two-week early voting period ended Nov. 1 with Republicans turning out in far higher numbers than Democrats while also posting significant gains in registered voters.
Those trends have GOP boosters confident former President Donald Trump could be the first Republican to win the Silver State since 2004. Challenger Sam Brown could unseat Sen. Jacky Rosen (D-Nevada), and at least one Democratic-held Las Vegas-area congressional seat could be flipped in the Nov. 5 election.
As of 8 a.m. PST Nov. 1, the Nevada Secretary of State’s Office reported 945,436 of Nevada’s 2.035 million registered “active” voters—46.5 percent—had cast ballots

Major win for Pennsylvania Republicans and election integrity groups. A few days ago, 3 Democrat judges on the Pennsylvania appellate court (3-2 decision) struck down a date and accuracy requirement for mail in ballots to be received. Today, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court just stayed that ruling and put the date requirement back into effect. This makes it harder for Democrats to cheat. [Pdf Here])Order)

On January 17, 2017, just three days before President-Trump was sworn into office, outgoing President Obama had a secret conference call with progressive media allies.
A long battled FOIA request by Jason Leopold was finally able to receive documents and within the documents the transcript of the phone call is revealed. [Documents Here]
Again, this is three days before Trump took office, when the Obama White House and Intelligence Community were intentionally pushing the Trump-Russia conspiracy story into the media in an effort to disrupt President Trump’s transition to power. President Obama is essentially asking his progressive allies to help defend his administration. Part of the 20-page transcript is below:

If you’re looking for good analysis breaking down the insanity of the modern “trans” movement, then J.D. Vance’s Thursday interview with podcaster Joe Rogan is the discussion to watch.
The GOP vice presidential pick and the comedian covered a lot of topics in their more than three-hour talk. From finding out how Vance was picked to be Donald Trump’s running mate to discussing the first assassination attempt against the former president, the interview provided more in-depth content about the Hillbilly Elegy author’s life and philosophy than corporate media ever could.

“I tried to pick Trump 10 times, it would not work.”
That’s part of the caption for a now-viral video on X showing a voter trying to cast a vote for former President Donald Trump. After several attempts, the video shows, the electronic voting machine captured a vote — but it was for Vice President Kamala Harris. Although officials have looked into the issue, such glitches are a reminder to voters to always double (if not triple) check ballots when casting votes.

A shady voting group represented by a far-left trans activist got caught this week texting thousands of swing state voters, suggesting they had already cast ballots in this year’s election in a classic case of voter suppression.
This week alone, thousands of voters in the crucial swing state of Pennsylvania received text messages from a group called “AllVote” reading, “Records show you voted,” along with a hyperlink to more voting information, reports say.
Charlotte Clymer, a male who claims to be a female and the reported spokesman for AllVote, told CNN that over the weekend, “several thousand registered voters were affected by our error.”

While young people historically have low voter turnout, Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign has taken to social media to try to bridge the gap — but young voters shouldn’t be so quick to applaud her get-out-the-vote tactics.
What began with Harris hopping on the “brat summer” bandwagon has expanded to a full-fledged (and cringe) meme crusade, with the campaign trying to paper over Harris’ lack of accountability and abysmal record by following the trends of “chronically online” voters.
Many failures of the Biden-Harris administration directly affect young voters, making the transition from adolescent to adult harder than ever.

Prompted by Rep. Bryan Steil to act, the feckless Wisconsin Elections Commission will meet on Friday to issue guidance clarifying the use of noncitizen IDs at the polls.
Steil, chairman of the House Administration Committee, which oversees federal election law, sent a letter late last week demanding WEC clarify whether swing state Wisconsin’s Limited Term and Non-Domiciled driver’s licenses and ID cards may be used as proof of residency to register to vote.
Spoiler Alert: The temporary visitor IDs generally issued to noncitizens can be used to vote, according to proposed guidance from members of the Elections Commission.

The havoc wrought by Hurricane Helene in western North Carolina brought disaster to homes and families, but that has not stopped Democrats from blocking the approval of emergency early voting sites in the heavily Republican area. The refusal to act forced the GOP-led state legislature to intervene.
Democrat-run local elections boards in McDowell and Henderson counties have failed to approve additional early voting sites in the disaster-stricken area, despite increasing calls for more access to voting. Both counties voted for Donald Trump in 2020.
“Ensuring the right to vote is upheld for western NC citizens devastated by Hurricane Helene should be a non-partisan issue,

Once you see the strings on the political marionettes, you can never return to that moment in the performance when you did not see them…. Conservative Tree House may be called a Last Refuge for each of us for different reasons. Whatever trail through the woods brought us here, we have shared the turmoil of storms as we have been finding our voices as individuals in this growing community
Perhaps you’ve had some truly shockingly cruel things said to you purely because you believe in limited government and fiscal conservatism. Perhaps you not only believe that we should be self-reliant and personally responsible, but also believe that when we are allowed
