NEW: The DOJ charged James Comey for a third time, accusing the former FBI director of unlawfully transmitting national defense information to the press in 2016. The move marks an escalation in Trump's ongoing retaliation campaign to prosecute his political foes. https://demdock.com/4ihEUdE

The Trump admin made its case for why California must stop counting the ballots of more than 20,000 people they allege are “likely” noncitizens. But the DOJ has struggled to explain to even a federal court the administration’s methodology for flagging the individuals: https://demdock.com/4i8JLit
