  1. David Gilbert exposes how election deniers could seize control of future American votes. Several Republican attorney general nominees in swing states including Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada and Kansas continue to question the certified results of the 2020 presidential election, raising concerns they might influence election oversight and administration ahead of 2028. Their roles demand upholding the rule of law and accepting verified outcomes rather than revisiting settled contests, yet persistent claims undermine public trust in the process. The insight is that state legal offices hold quiet but decisive power, making voter scrutiny essential to defending democratic norms against erosion.

David Gilbert deserves praise for this deeply reported and insightful article. wired.com/story/they-believe-2 #ElectionIntegrity #RuleOfLaw #VotingRights #Democracy

  5. Trump DOJ Weaponizes Midterms

    by Winston Wendell October 20, 2026 With voting underway in the Tuesday midterm election, the DOJ is waging a far-reaching prosecution of people accused of illegally voting — drawing sharp criticism that the Trump administration is weaponizing the federal courts against voters. According to the Associated Press, The New York Times, and NPR, federal prosecutors have just charged 28 people in California with voting-related crimes. The DOJ said it has charged 113 people in 20 states with […]

  13. David Gilbert reports alarming threats to election integrity as mysterious white powder arrives in suspicious letters. Are local election workers safe amid this coordinated campaign? Election offices in at least 32 states have received envelopes with harmless powder over the past week, prompting investigations by federal authorities and postal inspectors into what appears to be a deliberate effort at intimidation targeting those who keep democracy functioning. While the substances pose no physical danger, these tactics expose vulnerabilities in the system and underscore the resilience of officials committed to safeguarding voting access despite ongoing disruptions. Readers can learn more about the scope of these incidents in the full report. wired.com/story/election-offic #ElectionSecurity #Midterms #VotingRights David Gilbert deserves praise for shining light on this critical issue.

  14. #State & #local jurisdictions maintain their own voter rolls—detailed records of voter information that can include sensitive material such as addresses, driver’s licenses, & partial Social Security numbers. But #Trump, seeking to eradicate a supposed plague of voting by noncitizens, has clashed with this system. (In reality, such illegal votes are extraordinarily rare.)

  15. #DOJ’s prolonged losing streak, Levitt said, “is a pretty clean rebuttal” of #Trump’s supposed invincibility.

    #Elections in the #US are conducted at the #state & #local levels, & the #FederalGovernment has little involvement or control over how officials across the country manage the voting process.

  16. #DOJ had never before sought to collect these data, and the ominous ambiguity as to what the government plans to do with the information left many experts and election officials alarmed over how this might be used to interfere with the midterm elections. In a letter to the DOJ, a group of Democratic secretaries of state voiced “immense concern” over DOJ’s apparent plans to share the data with #DHS.

  17. Since Sept 2025, the #Trump #DOJ has filed lawsuits against 30 #states & DC to this effect.

    “This is a top priority,” the division’s head, Asst AG Harmeet Dhillon, said on a podcast hosted by the right-wing influencer Benny Johnson last December. Examining these records would help DOJ identify supposed voting by noncitizens & stamp out voter fraud, Dhillon explained∶ “I think eventually we’re going to win these cases, all of them.”
