This confirms how committed Corrupt Trump and Weasel Blanche are to defending their cop-beaters’ slush fund and Trump tax fraud amnesty. Should be easy to reassure those two senators, if Blanche were sincere about what’s dead.

🚨BREAKING: Pennsylvania’s top election official, a Republican, rebuffed the Trump administration’s claim that nearly 15,000 noncitizens could be registered to vote in the commonwealth, demanding it explain how that estimate was calculated. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Pennsylvania calls for DHS to substantiate sweeping noncitizen voter roll claims
"Notably, DHS has not identified its methodology or what data it relied on in reaching this conclusion," Sec. Schmidt wrote.

There are three big problems for Blanche with crooked Trump deal he incubated: (1) the slush fund for cop-beaters and MAGA-loons, (2) the Trump family tax fraud amnesty scam, and (3) they pulled it off through collusion and possible “fraud on the court.”

The SPLC has long monitored and exposed white nationalist and Christian nationalist hate groups, so it makes sense that an administration staffed by many people sympathetic to one or both of those movements would use the DOJ to go after them.
