Trump’s Election Move Has Begun A national bid for voter-roll control.

"As diversionary battles flare across the national political landscape—immigration raids, diplomatic missteps, cascading legal losses, and Epstein fallout—one operation stands apart. Donald Trump is making his move where it matters most: elections."

“Not Ready for Prime Time.” A Federal Tool to Check Voter Citizenship Keeps Making Mistakes. The Department of Homeland Security pushed out the revamped tool while it was still adding data. That led to widespread misidentification, particularly for citizens born outside the U.S.

Howard Lutnick’s Epstein Story Doesn’t Make Any Sense The commerce secretary has no answer for his misleading statements about his dealings with the sex offender.

Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick’s latest statements to a Senate committee fail to add clarity to his various dealings with Jeffrey Epstein, @dgraham.bsky.social writes in The Atlantic Daily:

I keep thinking about Ted Cruz, who fervently backed Texas Republicans' partisan gerrymandering scheme, crying online about how mean it is that Virginia Democrats pulled off a partisan gerrymandering scheme.

I know he has no principles, but Jesus Christ, man, have some self-respect and dignity.
