Guest: Lauren Zissos – Patriot Academy Leadership Congress Graduate
This week’s episode was packed with hope, hard truths, and a glimpse at the next generation of leaders rising up to safeguard liberty.
🔎 Election Integrity Updates
Heather Honey’s Appointment: A huge win as data analyst and longtime election integrity warrior Heather Honey was appointed to the Department of Homeland Security. Despite mainstream hit pieces, Heather’s track record proves her credibility, having uncovered serious ballot discrepancies in Pennsylvania’s 2020 election.
Audit The Vote’s New Voter Registration Map: Our analytics director, Vico Bertogli, launched a real-time, interactive map that updates weekly from official Department of State data. It highlights anomalies like:
Voters over 110 years old still listed as “active.”
Thousands of registrations tied to out-of-state addresses.
Duplicate registrants with the same name and birth date across multiple addresses.
This is your one-stop snapshot of how voter rolls really look in Pennsylvania.

Trump’s Executive Order on Voting Machines: We also dug into how President Trump’s order requiring federal elections to use machines certified to the VVSG 2.0 standard may be a game-changer. Currently, almost no machines meet that standard, opening the door to move toward hand-counted paper ballots.

🗳️ Special Guest: Lauren Zissos
At just 23 years old, Lauren Zissos has already:
Attended Patriot Academy’s Leadership Congress since 2019.
Taught leadership and Constitution classes to homeschool students.
Studied computational mathematics & military studies at Liberty University.
Interned in STEM fields while pursuing a future in service to God and country.
Lauren shared how Patriot Academy equipped her with courage, skills, and a community. From writing and debating bills in the Texas legislature chambers to mentoring younger students, she’s living proof that investing in the next generation pays dividends for America’s future.
Her reminder to all of us: “Excellence over perfection. Character is easier kept than recovered.”
🇺🇸 Constitution City Update
We also covered the disappointing news that Constitution City, Texas—the Green family’s bold project to incorporate a city with biblical and constitutional values—hit a legal setback. But Rick and Kara Green are undeterred. It will take more time and resources, but the vision is alive. Keep them in your prayers.
