The DOJ recruited criminal prosecutors and an FBI official to monitor polls in Arizona, according to documents we obtained. This major change from long-standing election monitoring practices is concerning. We will continue to investigate and hold the Trump-Vance admin accountable.

The last time DOJ was pulled toward an election, Jeffrey Clark drafted a letter to Georgia claiming the department had "identified significant concerns that may have impacted the outcome." DOJ's leadership testified that was false and refused to sign, threatening mass resignation on Jan. 3, 2021.

Those days are long gone. No one in this Regime are there to constrain Trump so we know he will cheat. It will be bad. We must be ready to hit the streets by the millions!

In 2020 the guardrail was people: the department's leadership refused to sign Clark's letter, and the Jan. 3 resignation threats kept him from being installed. Who holds those seats now is the real question.

Everyone in Trump Regime is an election denier & won’t stop Trump’s worst impulses. On Dec 16, 2020 he wrote an unsigned Executive Order that declared a “national emergency” based on “foreign interference” & ordered “the Secretary of Defense to seize” all machines & records at Sec Def’s discretion.
