And the same assertion was repeated in other AP stories filed from Washington the same day.)<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDuring a reception with lawmakers at the White House Monday evening, Trump claimed the reason he\u2019d lost the popular vote to Democratic rival Hillary Clinton was that 3 million to 5 million immigrants living in the U.S. illegally had voted,\u201d The AP writers reported.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is no evidence to support Trump\u2019s claim. He made a similar statement on Twitter in late November that he had won the Electoral College in a \u2018landslide\u2019 and \u2018won the popular vote if you deduct the millions of people who voted illegally.\u2019 Clinton won the popular vote by nearly 2.9 million votes but lost the electoral contest.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTrump\u2019s assertion appears to be part of a continuing pattern for him and his new administration in which falsehoods overshadow his outreach efforts,\u201d the AP writers concluded.<\/p>\n<p>Please note The Associated Press did not say \u201cTrump may be exaggerating the number of illegal aliens who cast illegal ballots; the precise number has not been established.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>No, no. They accused the president of uttering a \u201cfalsehood,\u201d clearly implying NO substantial or significant or measurable number of illegal aliens cast illegal ballots in the 2016 American presidential election, clearly asserting EVERY VOTE of Hillary Clinton\u2019s \u201c2.9 million popular vote majority\u201d was valid and untainted.<\/p>\n<p>But here\u2019s the thing: THAT\u2019S a lie. It\u2019s The Associated Press, not Donald Trump, that\u2019s lying.

My desk was beside his -\u2013 literally next to his &#8212; while he was working on this column; making phone calls, receiving phone calls, dashing out of the office for interviews. He did not make this stuff up. His rectitude and thoroughness and attention to detail and balance in preparing this column would make a Boy Scout proud.

In Nevada, a battleground state that could decide the presidency and control of the U.S. Senate, it is real.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLast week, I met with two immigrant noncitizens who are not eligible to vote, but who nonetheless are active registered voters for Tuesday&#8217;s election,\u201d Cook continued. \u201cThey said they were signed up by Culinary Local 226. . . .<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThen the election drew closer. Then the Culinary canvassers started seeking them out and ordering them to go vote.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOne of the immigrants was visited at home by a Culinary representative and said the operative made threats of deportation if no ballot was cast. . . .<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOne day, when a Culinary representative was told the immigrant wasn&#8217;t a citizen and wouldn&#8217;t vote, things got testy. The immigrant was &#8220;in so much trouble,&#8221; the Culinary operative said, according to Brenda Moraine, a local immigrant advocate who was there,\u201d Cook continues.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOne of the immigrants validated my worst fears about Nevada&#8217;s weak voter registration standards and voting safeguards.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;\u2018There are others,\u2019 the immigrant said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOther noncitizen Culinary workers are registered to vote?<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;\u2018Yes.\u2019<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vinsuprynowicz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/images.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vinsuprynowicz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/images.jpg?resize=295%2C171&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"295\" height=\"171\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3254\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe question,\u201d Cook points out, \u201cnow that early voting is over and Election Day is just two days away, is how many of these ineligible voters have done the Culinary&#8217;s bidding and submitted ballots, whether out of ignorance or fear, and how many have the knowledge and courage to follow the law and stay away from the polls.<\/p>\n<p><em>(In Nevada, as in many states, unions can and do instruct their members to request absentee ballots. There&#8217;s no longer any need to prove &#8212; or even claim &#8212; you&#8217;ll be out of town or in the hospital on election day. Union shop stewards can then collect the completed ballots -\u2013 no safeguard prevents them from checking to make sure they\u2019re filled out \u201ccorrectly\u201d -\u2013 and mail or deliver them in bulk to the county clerk\u2019s office for counting.

You don&#8217;t have to show a photo ID at any point in the process. The immigrants I met could vote Tuesday just by showing a Culinary health insurance card and a power bill.<\/p>\n<p>Evidence? Cook went to the source.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c\u2018One would establish identity and one would establish residence,\u2019 Clark County Registrar of Voters Larry Lomax said of state standards. \u2018Just like every other voter in Nevada, they will not be asked to prove citizenship.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou can&#8217;t cash a check in this town with such flimsy identification,\u201d Cook concludes.<\/p>\n<p>But you can vote.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2018I&#8217;VE THOUGHT ABOUT THE POSSIBILITY THAT HE&#8217;S PRESIDENT, AND I FEEL TERROR,&#8217; SHE SAID . . .

Right?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cInflamed by Trump&#8217;s candidacy but with an eye on turning the whole ticket blue,\u201d continues Michelle Rindels of The AP, \u201corganized labor groups including the heavily immigrant Culinary Union are in the thick of an aggressive get-out-the-vote campaign that&#8217;s contributing to Democrats&#8217; early voting turnout lead in Nevada, and raising alarms for down-ticket Republicans. The union&#8217;s work so far this cycle included ensuring 34,000 of its members are registered to vote, reassigning 150 of its members to full-time political work and leading a ground operation that&#8217;s knocked on more than 200,000 doors.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWorkers try to sway their co-workers in casino cafeterias and by phone, and they&#8217;re leaving no room for excuses in physically getting people to the polls,\u201d Ms. Rindels continued to gush, with undisguised enthusiasm and approval \u2013 and not a word of concern about how many of those voters have a legal right to vote. \u201cChartered buses shuttle casino workers to an early voting site during their paid lunch break, and they&#8217;re handed a boxed lunch for the ride back.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Did she just say the union buys them a free lunch in exchange for voting? A century ago, the Tammany Hall ward heelers would buy you a beer in exchange for entering the polling place and dropping one of their party&#8217;s pre-printed ballots &#8212; clearly identifiable by color from across the room &#8212; into the ballot box. Somehow I thought paying someone to vote was now illegal. <\/p>\n<p>And The AP really believes all those union workers are LEGAL VOTERS? Come on.

The sancity of the vote is strictly confidential.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s true this is confusing. But the lady asked whether they\u2019d come to get and deport an \u201cundocumented citizen, and I call them citizens because they contribute to this country,\u201d if such a person voted. Clearly, she\u2019s up to the old tricks of the amnesty-for-illegals gang, redefining \u201ccitizens\u201d to include \u201cundocumented\u201d persons (that is, in plain English, illegal aliens) simply because they \u201ccontribute to this country\u201d in some way -\u2013 maybe by paying sales tax when they buy a pair of shoes. President Obama then replies \u201cNot true.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Why?<\/p>\n<p>Because, \u201cWhen you vote, you are a citizen yourself.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It sure sounds like he\u2019s saying such a person becomes a citizen THROUGH THE SIMPLE, ILLEGAL ACT OF VOTING, and that no one is going to review those voter rolls to try and catch such criminal illegals and deport them for voting. (And why not? Isn&#8217;t that exactly what we SHOULD be doing? No one&#8217;s talking about trying to determine who any legal voter voted FOR.) Then-President Obama does, indeed, reassure Ms. Rodriguez&#8217;s viewers that nothing bad will happen to them if they vote, after she introduces her question by saying &#8220;undocumented citizens . . . are fearful of voting.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She even explains why she calls these &#8220;undocumented&#8221; persons (meaning illegal aliens) &#8220;citizens,&#8221; in yet another example of attempting to re-define crimes out of existence (like calling child molesters &#8220;youth romance tutors&#8221; or the mutilators of female genitalia &#8220;people from exotic foreign lands with different customs which we must respect because they&#8217;re merely here to help enhance our cultural diversity.&#8221;)<\/p>\n<p>Does Barack Obama correct the young propagandist&#8217;s false definition of &#8220;citizens&#8221;?
