The second edition of “The Plot to Seize Russia – The Untold History” is now available for purchase in paperback and hardcover on Amazon and Barnes and Noble. The ebook will be available shortly.

Book description:

“Take care of Russia,” Boris Yeltsin said as he departed his presidency in August 1999. These words were directed at current Russian president, Vladimir Putin. Yeltsin specifically picked Putin as his predecessor to prevent the takeover of Russia.

So, who was Yeltsin warning against? Newly declassified documents from the Clinton Administration prove that there was a plot to rig the Russian election of 2000. These never-before-seen documents confirm numerous attempts to implement pro-Western policies using the Russian oligarchy headed by Boris Berezovsky.

On the other side were the communists who desired a return to the glory days of the Soviet Union. As one of the largest international hedge fund managers, author Martin Armstrong found himself in the middle of perhaps the greatest espionage, or attempt at a regime change for Russia, in modern history.

The Plot to Seize Russia pulls back the curtain to expose the most extraordinary attempt to seize power in modern history, but with the pen rather than armies. These declassified documents reveal a plot that has altered our thinking about the relations between the United States and Russia. The thirst for power comes seething through every line of these papers that alter our perception of reality, change the course of history, and now threaten us with World War III.

They are now talking about fast-tracking a referendum on reopening EU accession talks in Iceland, possibly as early as this year, accelerating a timeline that was originally expected closer to 2027. The shift is being driven by geopolitical tensions, economic pressures, and a growing debate about adopting the euro versus keeping the krona.

What people constantly fail to understand is that the euro was never created as an economic project first. It was a political project. I have stated countless times that the euro was designed to bind Europe together politically after centuries of war, not because it made economic sense for diverse economies to share a single currency. You cannot unify Germany, Italy, Greece, and Spain under one monetary policy and expect stability. That violates the very foundation of capital flow dynamics and economic cycles. The euro removed national monetary sovereignty and handed it to a central bureaucracy in Brussels and Frankfurt that cannot respond to local economic conditions.

Now we see Iceland, a country of roughly 390,000 people, being pulled back into this same discussion. This is highly ironic when you look at the actual history. Iceland applied to join the EU in 2009 in the aftermath of the banking crisis but halted negotiations in 2013 after public opposition and concerns over sovereignty, fisheries, and monetary independence. It was a direct reflection of the fact that smaller, independent economies understand the danger of surrendering policy control to a centralized authority.

Iceland has one of the highest GDP per capita levels in the world, runs on abundant geothermal and renewable energy, and maintains its own currency precisely so it can adjust during crises. During the 2008 financial crisis, Iceland allowed its banking system to collapse, imposed capital controls, and let the krona devalue. Had Iceland been on the euro, it would have faced the same fate as Greece: austerity with no monetary escape.

Countries with independent currencies can devalue and recover. Countries inside the euro cannot. They are trapped in a fixed monetary regime regardless of domestic conditions. That is why southern Europe suffered prolonged stagnation while northern Europe dominated capital flows after the euro’s creation.

Iceland already participates in the EU single market through the EEA and Schengen without surrendering full sovereignty. In other words, they get trade access without monetary submission. Joining the EU and potentially adopting the euro would alter that balance. Reports suggest the timeline is being accelerated due to rising geopolitical tensions and closer EU engagement, which confirms my long-standing view that the EU expands more aggressively during periods of global uncertainty.

Now the EU faces declining industrial competitiveness, energy crises, and regulatory overreach. The idea that joining such a structure would somehow “stabilize” Iceland ignores the broader macro trend of capital flight away from highly regulated regions and into independent jurisdictions.

If Iceland joins the EU and eventually adopts the euro, it will be surrendering the very tool that allowed it to survive its worst crisis. That is the real economic issue. Small nations historically do better at retaining monetary sovereignty during global instability. The euro is rigid by design, and rigidity in a cyclical global economy is always dangerous. Sacrificing sovereignty for a political currency created for European unification rather than economic efficiency would be a profound long-term structural shift, not a simple trade decision.

A new law signed by Putin grants the FSB the authority to order telecom operators to disconnect individuals from internet and mobile services. This long trajectory toward centralized digital control that has been unfolding for years, especially since the 2019 “sovereign internet” framework, which already laid the groundwork for isolating Russia’s domestic network from the global internet if necessary.

The legislation helps telecommunications providers to cut communications access upon the requirement of the FSB, while shielding those companies from any legal liability for outages. In practical terms, that means the state security apparatus can legally disconnect individuals or entire regions from the internet and mobile networks at will, under conditions defined by presidential regulation.

Governments historically move to control information flows first, long before they impose overt capital controls. I have warned repeatedly that the next phase of government intervention would not begin with seizing bank accounts outright, but with restricting the free flow of communication. The new law allows authorities to restrict connectivity without court oversight, which further centralizes power in the executive and security services. The bill evolved from vague “requests” to binding “requirements” from the FSB, meaning telecom providers are legally required to comply with shutdown orders across internet, mobile, calls, and messaging services.

They justify this as counter-terrorism and defense against security threats, including drone warfare and cyber risks, yet historically such language has always been used to expand state surveillance powers. Russian authorities have already blocked major platforms, restricted messaging services, and pushed citizens toward state-monitored applications, all under the banner of national security and technological sovereignty.

Digital shutdowns increase systemic risk in modern economies that rely on online banking, digital payments, logistics, and real-time financial transactions. Even temporary internet disruptions can trigger spikes in cash withdrawals and anxiety over digital isolation, which is a classic sign of declining institutional trust.

The Soviet Union restricted communication channels, China built the Great Firewall, and now Russia is formalizing a legal framework to disconnect individuals digitally. By granting the FSB authority to disconnect communications nationwide or individually, the state effectively gains a “kill switch” over the digital economy. That extends beyond politics into commerce, finance, and even emergency infrastructure. Control the communication networks, and you control the flow of capital, opinion, and resistance. That has always been the unspoken objective behind expanding surveillance laws, regardless of the political system implementing them.

The latest calls inside the European Union to change its own voting rules to neutralize Hungary’s veto power display the bloc’s clear move toward complete centralized control. Lithuania’s foreign minister openly argued that the EU must overhaul its system after Hungary blocked key decisions on Ukraine, claiming action is needed to stop what he called Hungary’s “abuse of veto” in blocking major policies.

According to the report, Hungary has blocked a €90 billion EU loan to Ukraine and a new sanctions package, prompting frustration among EU officials who expected to demonstrate unity and resolve. The Lithuanian foreign minister admitted this exploitation of unanimity happens “so many times” and suggested reviewing the decision-making process or even reducing the powers of a member state. That statement alone reveals the deeper political shift underway inside Europe.

“Until Ukraine resumes oil transit to Hungary and Slovakia via the Druzhba pipeline, we will not allow decisions important to Kyiv to move forward,” said Hungarian Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó.

“We were expecting that everything was already prepared for the fourth anniversary and we will be ready to deliver new sanctions package, and also the €90 billion loan to Ukraine”, Lithuanian Foreign Minister Kęstutis Budrys told Euronews’ Europe Today show. “Europe is solid, Europe is resolved and we can deliver”, Hungary’s obstruction “is really frustrating”, Budrys said.

This is precisely the structural flaw that was built into the European Union from the beginning. The EU was never a true federation, yet it increasingly behaves like one. It pretends to be a union of sovereign states while steadily concentrating decision-making power in Brussels. Now, when one member state exercises its legal right under the unanimity principle, the response is to silent dissent.

They are now openly discussing moving toward qualified majority voting in foreign policy, which would effectively remove the sovereign veto of individual nations. A qualified majority would allow 15 of 27 states representing 65% of the population to override dissenting members. This is not a minor procedural tweak. That is a fundamental transformation of the EU from a cooperative alliance into a centralized political structure.

What is even more revealing is the suggestion that Hungary’s voting rights could be curtailed under Article 7 mechanisms if it continues to block policies. In other words, if a member state does not align politically, the solution being floated is to reduce its influence within the “union” or “sovereign” nations.

The EU is neither a union nor sovereign. Each emergency from debt, migration, war, or sanctions becomes the justification for deeper centralization. Now the argument is that one dissenting nation could spell the “end for the EU as a geopolitical actor in the future.”

Europe is increasingly divided between centralized policy ambitions in Brussels and national sovereignty concerns among member states. Hungary is not the root problem. It is the symptom a failed union of nations with fundamentally different economic interests, energy dependencies, and geopolitical priorities being forced under a single foreign policy framework. The real risk is not one veto. The real risk is institutional overreach in response to dissent.

There is a deep division within the Trump Administration with a pro war and anti-war groups. The anti-war group are VP Vance and Tulsi Gabbard. The pro war group are Marco Rubio, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and the endless war monger Senator Lindsey Graham. Both Israel and the Neocons are consistently pushing for US action, viewing the current moment as an opportunity to deal a decisive blow to Iran to end the Islamic Republic. White House Press Secretary (Karoline Leavitt) stated publicly that “there are many arguments one can make in favor of a strike against Iran.”

The current Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Dan Caine, has clearly and repeatedly cautioned President Trump about the significant risks associated with potential military action against Iran. Recent reports from multiple news outlets detail his private warnings to the President and other top officials. While they lacked approval power to go to war, what was the Joint Chiefs’ do provide private advice regarding the invasion. Scholarly analysis indicates that most senior military officers, including those on the Joint Chiefs, had significant reservations about using force in Iraq. Their primary worry was that an invasion would result in a costly and open-ended commitment for the United States

President Trump took the significant step of replacing the top military leadership, including the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, shortly after taking office in 2025. This was part of a broader and unprecedented shakeup of the Pentagon’s senior ranks. The most prominent change was the replacement of the sitting Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

The changes extended well beyond the Joint Chiefs. The dismissals were part of a “rare and major shakeup” that began shortly after the new administration took office not unlike we are seeing in China. Critics argued that the firings were part of an effort to ensure the military is led by individuals loyal to the president rather than being solely focused on their duty to the Constitution.

The Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, a key figure in the overhaul, had previously criticized former General Brown and Admiral Franchetti, questioning whether their promotions were tied to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives. He stated the goal was to install new leadership focused on the military’s core mission of “deterring, fighting and winning wars.”

The new Chairman, General Caine, was a retired three-star general whose nomination required a waiver. By law, the Chairman is typically required to have previously served as a four-star general in a role like a service chief or combatant commander. Because Caine retired as a three-star lieutenant general, President Trump had to sign a national interest waiver, allowed under Title 10 of the U.S. Code, for him to be eligible for the position. He was then promoted to four-star general upon his return to active duty

Last year, Rubio has characterized Iran’s leadership as being at its “weakest point in decades,” citing economic collapse and public protests. However, he also warned of Iran’s military capabilities, noting they have amassed “thousands and thousands” of long-range ballistic missiles. They also are preaching Russia is weak showing their intent to invade Russia eventually.

In June 2025, following U.S. strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities (referred to as “Operation Midnight Hammer“), Rubio defended the action in a television interview. When pressed on the intelligence behind the strike, he dismissed the question as “irrelevant,” arguing that Iran had all the necessary components to build a weapon, including 60% enriched uranium.

During a Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing in January 2026, Rubio stated that the U.S. must have a force posture in the Middle East that could, “if necessary, preemptively prevent the attack against thousands of American servicemen and other facilities in the region and our allies.” He explicitly noted that “The President always reserves the preemptive defensive option.“

REGIME CHANGE:

When questioned by Senator John Cornyn about what would happen if Iran’s Supreme Leader were removed, Rubio admitted, “I don’t think anyone can give you a simple answer,” describing the situation as “far more complex” than other recent geopolitical events and something that would require “a lot of careful thinking“

This is the same problem that surfaced from the Iraq War. They never consider anything beyond what is in front of their nose. They removed Saddam and NEVER considered that (1) he kept the crazies in check so we got ISIS, and (2) he was the #1 enemy of Iran. Removing him was to the benefit of Iran.

Removing the Ayatollah Ali Khamenei with such a huge military, will most likely lead to some military general and they are cut from the same religious cloth so there is by no means a guarantee that this will change anything.

A PROXY WAR AGAINST THE USA?:

Britain, NATO, EU and the American Neocons have used Ukraine as a proxy war to weaken Russia for the EU thinks it can conquer Russia, get the $75 trillion in assets. That’s why the head of NATO came out and warned these EU leaders if they think that they can defeat Russia without the USA, they are dreaming.

Flights from China and Russia have been arriving in Iran regularly. It is believed that China has not only provided access to their satelites for targeting, but they may have provided their YLC8B Radar system to detect stealth fighter jets and bombers. China’s YLC-8B Radar Transfer to Iran Could Rewrite Middle East Airpower and End Stealth Dominance. The reported deployment of China’s long-range YLC-8B anti-stealth radar in Iran signals a strategic shift in Middle Eastern air defense architecture, directly challenging U.S. and Israeli reliance on fifth-generation stealth aircraft and reshaping regional deterrence dynamics.

This escalation in Beijing’s military-technical support to Tehran 2025 post-“Operation Midnight Hammer“, is very significant for this can track stealth fifth-generation aircraft at long range, and appears to have been deployed since the bunker busting of 2025. This is fundamentally reshaping regional airpower assumptions in the Middle East and provides the theatre for China to test its advanced weapons using Iran just as we have used Ukraine against Russia.

This risk here is that with advanced targeting from China, Iran has increased its chances to at least damage an aircraft carrier rendering it inoperable. This can become a proxy war to weaken the United States just as Ukraine has been used to weaken Russia.

A mentioned, then there is this “nuclear ambiguity” where Iran could have nuclear capability just as the early-stage development of countries like Israel or Pakistan during their initial programs where there were no public tests hiding their development. The US has been claiming Iran is close and that was their view in 2007 as then expected they would achieve that by 2009 as John McCain said that in this interview.

Attacking Iran may be the worst idea ever. This is the FISRT adversary with formidable defense capability unlike Iraq, Afghanistan, or Venezuela.

The potential move of the Chicago Bears from Illinois to Indiana is being framed as a sports story, but in reality, it is an economic signal that fits a much larger trend of corporate and capital migration. The organization has openly praised Indiana lawmakers after the state advanced legislation to support a new stadium development near Hammond, while negotiations in Illinois have stalled over tax and policy disputes.

Indiana officials have been aggressively coordinating legislation, financing structures, and development frameworks to attract the team, while Illinois political discussions on incentives and taxation have lagged or been canceled. The unanimous 24-0 vote for Senate Bill 27 provides $2 billion in funding for a new sports stadium.

“Indiana is open for business, and our pro-growth environment continues to attract major opportunities like this partnership with the Chicago Bears,” Governor Mike Braun wrote on X. “We’ve identified a promising site near Wolf Lake in Hammond and established a broad framework for negotiating a final deal…The State of Indiana moves at the speed of business, and we’ve demonstrated that through our quick coordination between state agencies, local government, and the legislature to set the stage for a huge win for all Hoosiers…”

Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker does not understand that capital does not wait for political red tape or policy. Capital moves quickly, favoring the most predictable and retaining environments. The current land tax is $3.6 million annually, but expanding the stadium in Illinois could come with a tax bill upward of $36 million annually. The Bears were willing to invest $2 billion into a new stadium in Illinois, but the increased tax liability is simply not worth the cost. Around $1.3 billion has been earned by the state in gross tax revenue during the team’s 40-year run in Chicago.

The Bears were also asking for improved infrastructure to support a larger stadium. The hearing on tax legislation surrounding the project was canceled. Indiana, in turn, stepped up to offer the team a solidified opportunity void of confusion and red tape.

The Soldier Field lease expires in 2033. This move is far more than team loyalty; in fact, the team was willing to make concessions to remain in Chicago. When governance becomes slower, more expensive, and more uncertain, major institutions reassess their long-term operating environment. Not only is the state losing millions in tax revenue, but they’re losing tourist dollars on restaurants and hotels, parking, local transit, merchandise goods sales, construction and stadium jobs, payroll taxes, property taxes, event taxes, and so on. It is quite extreme to see a football team abandon its namesake city after four decades. It exemplifies the nature of the trend we are witnessing: capital no longer feels welcome in blue states.

The latest PCE inflation data for December 2025 once again confirms inflation is not collapsing the way politicians and central banks keep suggesting. The Federal Reserve’s preferred inflation gauge rose 0.4% for the month, with headline PCE running about 2.9% year-over-year and core PCE around 3.0%, remaining well above the Fed’s 2% target.

What this actually shows is that inflation has never been transitory. Despite aggressive monetary tightening and constant claims that inflation is coming down, the core trend is stabilizing near 3%, which historically signals price pressures rather than a temporary spike. Inflation does not simply disappear because interest rates are adjusted, rather, it declines when confidence and demand contract, and we are not seeing that type of collapse in consumer spending, which also rose alongside prices in December.

Governments and central banks focus on headline narratives, yet the core PCE, which excludes food and energy, is still running near 3%, indicating underlying inflationary pressure in the real economy. The political narrative continues to blame inflation on interest rates, tariffs, or isolated policy factors, but historically, inflation is far more tied to fiscal policy, deficits, and monetary expansion than any single variable. Even with inflation well below the 2022 peak, the data suggest the Fed is unlikely to rush into rate cuts because inflation progress has stalled rather than decisively reversed.

In reality, this confirms the broader trend I have outlined in Manipulating the World Economy: inflation peaks do not end in a straight line decline. They plateau, fluctuate, and remain above target far longer than policymakers expect. The real risk is not hyperinflation, but persistent inflation combined with slowing growth gives us the stagflationary undertone that emerges when governments expand spending while central banks attempt to maintain credibility.

When inflation stabilizes above target despite tightening, it signals a structural shift in the economy’s cost base, not a temporary anomaly. And that is precisely what this PCE data is quietly confirming beneath the surface.

Erasing a language equates to erasing a cultural identity. I have repeatedly addressed the language issue in Ukraine because it was one of the earliest political flashpoints that contributed to division long before the military conflict escalated. Following the 2014 change of government, there were immediate moves to downgrade the legal status of the Russian language, which was widely spoken across eastern and southern Ukraine.

The attempt to restrict or marginalize the Russian language was not simply about national identity; it was perceived in the eastern regions and by Russia as a direct challenge to cultural and historical ties that go back centuries. You cannot redraw linguistic identity by legislative decree without expecting political backlash, especially in a nation that has long been divided between Western European alignment and Eastern historical integration with Russia.

I have consistently stated that civil conflict historically begins with identity suppression, whether linguistic, regional, or cultural, because it signals to a portion of the population that they are no longer fully represented within the state. Once that perception takes hold, geopolitical actors exploit the division, and the crisis escalates beyond domestic politics into international confrontation.

Under Zelensky’s government, Ukraine continued and expanded policies that reinforced Ukrainian as the primary language in education, effectively phasing out Russian-language instruction in most schools under the 2019 language and education frameworks that were further implemented during his presidency.

Putin noted in his interview with Tucker Carlson that his primary goal was to unify the Russian population of Ukraine. Zelensky, on the other hand, demands that Russians erase their identity and conform. Ukraine and Russia share deep historical roots. These nations were not linguistically or culturally isolated from one another. Bilingualism was a reflection of shared history.

The younger generation is increasingly socialized to view Russia not merely as a geopolitical adversary, but as a cultural and historical enemy. Media and formal education now demand that citizens conform to one isolated identity. One must prove they are a “real” Ukrainian by denouncing everything Russian, even if it includes their bloodline and cultural ancestry.

COMMENT: Mr. Armstrong, your computer pinpointed Ukraine three years in advance. Your computer also targeted the week of the Israel attack. Now your computer targeted Iran for February last year. Honestly, it is so obvious why they targeted you and wanted the source code after you also forecast the collapse of the USSR. They always claimed you had too much influence rather than try to understand how the world works. The media will not write one word about you because they fear it would only increase your influence. I understand your frustration because you have accomplished something nobody else has and they refuse to listen. But when it came time to write a peace plan, they still came to you because you have contacts others only dream of.

I admire your courage. I agree with you. No worthwhile journalist will dare write about your accomplishments. That just shows it is all fake news. What you have done is for the betterment of society. If no journalist will dare write about your accomplishments, they are not interested in helping society. They do not care about the future of their own family. What kind of person is that? Perhaps your name will be acknowledged after you are gone as you remarked. For then they won’t fear the powers that be and they can’t say you are influencing the world from your grave.

Pete

REPLY: Thank you. I never thought of such a career that I have found myself in. I tell youth who ask me how did I develop this career since there is no degree in this stuff, I explain shit happens. I was asked to write a peace plan because nobody else was. But the $10 billion they wanted me to fund their regime change of Russia was to be put into Hermitage Capital Management. When Yeltsin was blackmailed and he had to find a successor who was not an oligarch and not a communist, he turned to Putin, who then seized Hermitage Capital Management. Coming to me was strategic for (1) I could get the plan to Putin, and (2) Putin knew I refused to be part of the regime change in 2000. Because it came from me, it had more credibility insofar as I was not a Neocon nor a NY market manipulator.

Forecasting war cannot be done with just opinion. The computer is tracking everything.  China is the primary buyer of Iranian oil, importing over 80% of Iran’s oil exports through unofficial channels that circumvent sanctions. China provides cybersecurity and intelligence support to Iran, and in January 2026 began implementing a strategy to replace Western technologies in Iran with secure Chinese systems. Just as the US provides satellite targeting for Ukraine to attack Russia, China is now providing that level of satellite coverage for Iran so they can target a carrier.

Russia and China simply do not want to be dragged into an Israel-Iran confrontation and have ensured that their cooperation and strategic alignments with Iran will not force their hands.  They’ll provide weapons, intelligence, diplomatic cover, and economic support—but not direct military intervention. If this gets really out of hand and Iran can seriously damage a carrier, then the US will lose its mantle of invincibility. No carrier has been sunk since World War II.

Ayatollah Ali Khamenei acknowledged that a U.S. Navy aircraft carrier is formidable but said “An aircraft carrier is a dangerous machine, but even more dangerous than that is the weapon capable of sending it to the bottom of the sea”

While there is no officially confirmed evidence that Iran possesses nuclear weapons, many analysts believe that the Islamic Republic may have the ability—and potentially the will—to secretly develop and hide a limited nuclear arsenal. If produced, such weapons would almost certainly be stored in fortified underground military facilities. This “nuclear ambiguity” could mirror early-stage doctrines used by countries like Israel or Pakistan during their initial programs. The US has been claiming Iran is close and that was their view in 2007 as then expected they would achieve that by 2009. They may not have tested such a weapon to keep it secret. But this confrontation could result in using such a weapon when there is a clear intent to overthrow the Islamic State.

The People’s Republic of China and Russia have both signed strategic partnership agreements with Iran—without a mutual defense clause. Russia and China showed rhetorical support for Iran, including drafting a joint UN Security Council resolution calling for a ceasefire, that was ignored.

Here is Larry Summers express the prevailing view that if you could forecast, then you would have too much influence. The whole Marxist/Keynesian theory is that the economy is random so they can manipulate it at will. Even Paul Volcker in his 1979 book stated Keynesian Economics failed in 1974-1976 Recession. If I am correct, then they CANNOT manipulate society. Instead of respecting that I may have discovered something, they try to discredit it claiming it’s just my “”influence” so they have felt they must stop me.

Here is the main stream British press, the Evening Standard, when it wanted to taint the grand opening of the Forecaster in London. They went out of their way to use a head-hunter with the name of Martin Armstrong to try to discredit the film with a headline supporting the bankers using his comments but they used my photo.  Klaus Schwab did the same thing to claim I joined the WEF. There has always been a concerted effort to try to prevent people from even looking at our computer to keep people ignorant so the market manipulators and government can control society. Clearly, if the computer did not work, they would not bother.

This career has had me digging my own grave. Besides the government, I have had groups trying to infiltrade my company so many times. I have turned down so many offers even from the Rothschilds. I have never been motivated by money. I don’t sell advertising because I do not want people to get ripped off or think I have endorsed something. There are those who just hate my guts because I will not play by their rules.

The precession of the equinoxes is approximately 25,800 years. (3 x 8.6 – 25.8) What I have discovered is the universal cycle of the Universe. The New Yorker Magazine called it the Secret Cycle. After they published that article, I believe the journalist was intimidated.

At this point, the Democrats have taken the absurd position to block ID to vote insulting the minorities as if they could not vote because they are too stupid to have ID is just astonishing. You cannot get welfare, drive a car, or take a flight no less even go to Canada without ID. The derogatory argument of Chuck Schumer is an insult to everyone. The ONLY people without an ID would be an illegal alien. When you are born, you get a Social Security number. They have completely flipped their argument because Trump is making it now.

A number of states have “stop and identify” statutes. These laws require a person who is lawfully detained (not just casually stopped) to state their name for the police. In the landmark 2004 case Hiibel v. Sixth Judicial District Court of Nevada, the U.S. Supreme Court upheld these laws, ruling that requiring a suspect to disclose their name during a valid investigative stop does not violate the Constitution.

While the Supreme Court has affirmed that states can require voters to be citizens, it has also upheld that, for federal elections, this requirement can currently be satisfied by a sworn attestation (under penalty of perjury) rather than by providing documentary proof of citizenship. So, they must swear under oath that they are a citizen and if they lie that is 5 years in prison.

The Court has never struck down a law requiring voters to be U.S. citizens. However, the U.S. Constitution does not explicitly grant a universal, affirmative right to vote for all citizens. Instead, it prohibits specific forms of discrimination (e.g., based on race, sex) and allows states to set voter qualifications, like citizenship and age, as long as they don’t violate federal laws or constitutional provisions.

In the 2013 case Arizona v. Inter Tribal Council of Arizona, the Supreme Court ruled that states must “accept and use” the federal voter registration form, which only requires an applicant to swear they are a citizen under penalty of perjury. States may NOT unilaterally demand documents like birth certificates or passports for those registering to vote in federal races.
States can regulated ONLY state elections. The Court has allowed states to create a two-tiered system. A voter who attests to citizenship but cannot provide documents may be registered as a “federal-only” voter, meaning they can only vote for President and Congress.

So, what the hell is Chuck Schumer doing blocking ID. Is he just consumed with Trump Derangement Syndrome, where he must oppose whatever Trump says? Trump says the sky is blue, Schumer says no its red. If Trump said he will do something tomorrow, Schummer retorts and says tomorrow never comes because it is always today?

NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani has called on New York residents to volunteer as emergency snow shovelers, but they need TWO forms of ID. So you need ID to shovel snow, but nothing to vote?
