We have arguably our most shocking, juicy story in KK&F history this week, courtesy of reporter Greg Palast. Greg’s work investigating voter suppression has led him to discover a once-in-a-lifetime bombshell at the heart of the 2024 election results, and we made him walk us through it — so you can hear it, too. Watch below:

Greg alleges that the 2024 election results are not valid. Without the gross Jim Crow-era abuses of voting rights that predominated during this election, Kamala would have gotten an extra 3.5 million more votes, clinching states like Georgia and Michigan. Part of this episode is Greg’s overview of his work reconstructing on a state-by-state basis how Trump and his people relied on Ku Klux Klan legislation allowing for individual voter status to be challenged, laws that haven’t been used since 1946 but came back in a major way during this election and led to Trump’s victory.

In Georgia, for example, Greg points to widespread absences of registered voters on the rolls because those voters’ status was successfully challenged and their votes eventually suppressed. This is a horrifying, shocking story that goes to the highest halls of power in this country just as it reaches back to the most shameful and violently racist parts of our history. It’s hard to be shocked by any revelation about the craven tactics of the Trump 2024 campaign, but this is a significant story that, if treated seriously by mainstream media, has major implications for national politics.
