Here’s How President Trump Bypasses Congress and the Courts to Prevent Democrats from Stealing the 2026 Midterm Elections

Guest post by Attorney Peter Tiktin and Jerome R. Corsi, Ph.D.

The 2026 midterm elections are shaping up to be one of the most important elections in American history. The Democratic Party appears increasingly dominated by openly radical left politicians who only temper their disdain for the United States while campaigning. The party controlling the White House typically loses seats in the House and Senate in midterm elections. There is a reason why President Trump said, in his speech at the Republican Midterm Convention, that we should consider him to be a candidate in this election, and then as a seeming ‘aside’ suggested that he actually is. Trump knows that if the Democrats take the House and Senate, his years as an effective president are likely done.

Donald Trump realizes that with unrestrained mail-in balloting and with the voting machines in full use, nothing is in place to stop the radical left from stealing the election. The 2006 midterm elections are the radical left’s chance to get the majority of the House and enough seats in the Senate so that our president can not only be impeached but also removed.  In fact, the Democrat plan is most likely to not only impeach and remove Donald Trump, but to remove J.D. Vance with him, so that the next Speaker of the House of Representatives, probably Hakeem Jeffries, will be our next President.  If that were to happen, we would lose more than Congress.  We would lose the whole country to China, Canada, and the World Economic Forum.

There is no question that the Globalists are desperate.  They cannot delay their 2030 Agenda, and Donald Trump is making progress to eliminate the cheating in our voting system, to eliminate their crooked cash flow (such as in USAID), and to restore our military.  Two more years of Donald Trump, and the radical left will be cooked.

Those who rigged the election in 2020 had the courage to steal our country right before our eyes.  We knew the night of that Presidential Election that it was fixed.  Yet, Donald Trump was powerless to do anything other than relinquish his office, hoping he could come back in 2024.  However, if we endure such an onslaught, this time, there will be no coming back.

Every effort President Trump has made to secure the midterm elections has been blocked. Judges continue to issue injunctions blocking President Trump’s executive order which instructed the U.S. Post Office to establish tight rules on delivering mail-in ballots only to qualified voters. Majority Leader John Thune refused to press the SAVE Act to passage. Thirty states still refuse to turn over their voter rolls to the Department of Justice for examination. Now, the Supreme Court has denied the Trump administration’s request to implement an executive order designed to have the U.S. Post Office restrain the mailing of ballots to those who are ineligible to vote, including non-citizens.

With the Democratic Party running so many Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), we have no reason to doubt that the cheating will continue. These candidates who want to undo our Constitution are poised to manipulate the election machinery to their advantage, which put President Trump at the point where an election steal is inevitable unless he issues a national emergency declaration. President Trump has already set the stage for issuing a national emergency declaration by specifying in his speech to the nation on July 16, 2026, that Communist China has “carried out what is believed to be the largest compromise of election data in history—resulting in China’s illicit acquisition of 220 million U.S. voter files.”

President Trump has not shied away from using his national security emergency powers under the National Emergencies Act (NEA, 1976) to bypass Congress and the courts in his efforts to build a wall to secure our southern border. In that regard, on February 15, 2019, President Trump first declared a national emergency concerning the United States under the auspices of the NEA. As noted in the Federal Registry, President Trump’s authority in so doing extended to his authority as Commander-in-Chief to involve the U.S. military if necessary to enforce the declaration:

NOW, THEREFORE, I, DONALD J. TRUMP, by the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, including sections 201 and 301 of the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1601 et seq.), hereby declare that a national emergency exists at the southern border of the United States, and that section 12302 of title 10, United States Code, is invoked and made available, according to its terms, to the Secretaries of the military departments concerned, subject to the direction of the Secretary of Defense in the case of the Secretaries of the Army, Navy, and Air Force. To provide additional authority to the Department of Defense to support the Federal Government’s response to the emergency at the southern border, I hereby declare that this emergency requires use of the Armed Forces and, in accordance with section 301 of the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1631), that the construction authority provided in section 2808 of title 10, United States Code, is invoked and made available, according to its terms, to the Secretary of Defense and, at the discretion of the Secretary of Defense, to the Secretaries of the military departments.

The left-leaning Brennan Center objected that Trump’s use of the NEA was unconstitutional in that under Article I of the Constitution, only Congress has the right to control federal spending. The Brennan Center argued the following:

On February 15, 2019, President Trump followed through on a threat to declare a national emergency under the National Emergencies Act (NEA) of 1976 and to invoke emergency powers in order to secure additional money for construction of a wall along the southern border. Congress—holding the “power of the purse” granted to it by Article I of the U.S. Constitution―had repeatedly refused to grant Trump the funding he sought to build the wall. At the same time that Trump announced his intention to use emergency powers, he also announced that he would divert funds from other programs that do not require the declaration of a national emergency, such as funds set aside for drug interdiction programs (10 U.S.C. § 284) and funds obtained through asset forfeiture programs (3 U.S.C. § 9705). In total, Trump announced an intention to commandeer approximately $6.5 billion that Congress had not allocated for border wall funding.

The multiple federal lawsuits filed to block President Trump’s 2018 declaration of a national security emergency requiring the building of a wall on our southern border all failed. President Trump twice extended for an additional calendar year the national security emergency declaration on the border, first on February 13, 2020, and again on January 15, 2021. In February 2021, President Joe Biden terminated Trump’s border declaration, halting the redirection of federal funds to build the wall.

In a comprehensive analysis of the president’s power under NEA 1976, Congress.com stressed that under the standard of the Supreme Court’s decision in Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) v. Chadha, 462 U.S. 919 (1983), only a two-thirds vote of both the House and Senate can rescind a presidential national security declaration if issued under NEA 1976. The Congress.gov analysis concluded the following:

Emergency declarations were to terminate automatically after one year unless formally continued for another year by the President, but they could be terminated earlier by either the President or Congress. Originally, the prescribed method for congressional termination of a declared national emergency was a concurrent resolution adopted by both houses of Congress. This type of “legislative veto” was effectively invalidated by the Supreme Court in 1983. The National Emergencies Act was amended in 1985 to substitute a joint resolution as the vehicle for rescinding a national emergency declaration.

Now, the time has come for President Trump to use his national security emergency powers under the National Emergencies Act to protect election integrity by establishing voting rules and procedures that will block foreign involvement and the increasingly radical Democrats from stealing the 2026 midterm elections. All President Trump has to do is follow the blueprint he used to declare a national emergency at the border.

In his speech to the Storm Summit held in Las Vegas on September 12, 2026, Wayne Allyn Root repeated his call for a national security emergency declaration under NEA 1976 to protect the 2026 midterm elections from theft by severely limiting mail-in ballots to the traditional absentee ballot system, by requiring proof of citizenship and voter IDs, and by introducing paper ballots to prevent electronic voting machines from secretly switching votes. For being one of the first public figures to champion the use of a national security emergency declaration to secure the 2026 midterm elections, Root has been excoriated by the typical leftist critics, as evidenced by this Soros-funded Media Matters article. Wayne Allyn Root, desperately concerned, as are we, that the 2026 midterm elections will be rigged, has called for President Trump to issue “The NEED Act,” declaring a “National Emergency for Elections Act” under the auspices of the National Emergency Act of 1976.

As previously noted, on August 31, 2026, President Trump signed an Executive Order that extended for one year the 2018 Executive Order: “Continuation of the National Emergency with Respect to Foreign Interference in or Undermining Public Confidence in the United States Elections.” The national emergency declaration issued under the NEA can limit mail-in ballots to the traditional rules for absentee ballots, demand proof of citizenship and voter IDs, and introduce paper ballots to make sure the machines do not switch votes.

Also, as we commented in our previous article, the Constitution conveyed upon the president the powers of commander-in-chief for times such as these [Book of Esther in the Bible]. When the alternative is the loss of the Republic, President Trump has become our last line of defense, if the nation is to experience election integrity ever again.

Think about it.  We either need directions to the states to be proclaimed pursuant to the Executive Order of August 31, 2026, or we very well could need martial law to be declared after.  In this regard, Donald Trump is the right man, the only man in the world to have experienced being the President of the United States and to have relinquished power to the Cabal, knowing he was being ousted because of a rigged election.  After the Left took over, they invented nonsense criminal charges against him. Had he not won the presidency again in 2024, he probably would have spent the rest of his life behind bars.

Since then, President Trump has had time to ruminate.  He knows that his discission to capitulate in 2000 came from legal advisors who were advising to step down. This time, President Trump must be urged to follow his own instincts for survival, not just for his presidency, but for the integrity of the Constitution itself..  President Trump knows so much more now about his powers as president than he did in 2020. He realizes that should he be removed from office a second time, his life is over, as will be our freedom, and the lives of those who toil in MAGA. President Trump now has no choice but to issue tight election rules that will ensure a fair election by implementing the type of national security emergency that he did to build the wall.

Finally, each and every one of us has to get out and vote, as well as to encourage others of like mind to vote.  No matter what the machines do, the outcome is likely to be determined by voter turnout.  Without your vote, we are going to lose America.  Believe us, your vote means more now than perhaps at any other time in history.

Donald Trump is never to be counted out of the game. Remarkably, Donald Trump always looks like he’s going to lose until just before he wins. At the Republican Midterm Convention in Dallas, he promised to campaign for GOP candidates for the House and Senate as if this were a presidential election year. Nothing would reassure the American people that our Republic is secure more than for President Trump to issue the NEED Order that Wayne Allyn Root is encouraging, followed by getting aboard his new Air Force One to campaign for MAGA victories as only he can do. In the final analysis, our foreign enemies and our growing number of vocal enemies within cannot withstand the courage of a man like Donald Trump who fights, fights, fights as if there were no tomorrow. At his rallies, President Trump often asks his audience, “Are you tired of winning yet.” The answer is a resounding “No!” We need to keep on winning, defeating both enemies abroad and enemies within who threaten our freedom. Democrat Socialists are certain to lose in a midterm election in which only citizens vote, and the turnout is once again “too big to rig.”
