I don’t understand this fear that POTUS is “laying the groundwork” to claim the elections were rigged. He’s GOING to say it. The only people who’ll believe it (and there are fewer and fewer) will believe it with or without “groundwork.” What work do you think this “groundwork” is doing?

Just read the DOJ complaint against CA. All you need to know is in the claim for relief, which reads like it wasn't written by anyone who graduated law school. DOJ is 0-26 in suits to get voter files. If they enjoy losing, I've got good news for them. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

CLAIM FOR RELIEF:
"Violation of the Supremacy Clause as Applied to California's Actions of Knowingly Sending Vote-By-Mail Ballots to Likely Noncitizens and Ultimately Counting Those Ballots in Violation of 18 U.S.C. s 611" ...
which isn't how you write a claim for relief, because this doesn't actually cite any source of law that says DOJ should win this case.

And the end of this, Rep. Harris says "thank her profusely." And that's the only part of this he gets right. Because the student journalist -- who's 100% right here -- provided an courageous opportunity to educate everybody about the First Amendment. They _should_ be thanking her profusely.

If the CA letter in the Reuters story says what it says, this is nonsense. Even if the data were accurate (and there's zero chance), it would be illegal for CA to _act_ on the letter at this point in the cycle. Those were the conditions SCOTUS laid out, right? www.reuters.com/world/us-jus...

A portion of the Supreme Court's order allowing use of the (now broken by the federal government) SAVE database to go forward, explaining that there's a statutory provision that sure seems to prohibit bulk action against noncitizens this close to an election.

To be clear, this isn't just a ruling on any individual attempt to get a voter file. (Those have gone 0-26.) This is a ruling that the entire project was illegal from the jump.

This is a big deal. DC fed judge says that DOJ's pursuit (and use) of the state voter files is unlawful, on a bunch of different grounds. And effectively confirms that for the 18 states that submitted files willingly, whoever collected the files at DOJ Civil Rights committed federal crimes.

Arguably the biggest democracy referendum next month: Virginia is one of only three states where the state constitution says people should lose their right to vote FOR THEIR ENTIRE LIFE if they are convicted of any felony. This measure would allow anyone to vote after prison.
