A True the Vote co-founder revealed it was “in contact with people at DHS” to discuss a federal data-sharing partnership to scrutinize voter rolls for potential noncitizens.

The comments raise concerns over the relationship between DHS and right-wing groups challenging state election systems.
Leading election denier claimed DHS ‘wants to partner with us’ on voter roll checks. Now he’s a top official there
Comments from Phillips at the time suggest True the Vote, which has repeatedly pushed for access to federal data, also was working with DHS officials.

California asked the Supreme Court to respect the will of the voters who approved the state’s newly passed congressional map in November.

The state argued that the Republican challenge implies partisan gerrymandering is only unlawful when practiced by Democrats.

One expert warns the raid was a possible test run for future midterm interference in swing districts.
FBI’s Fulton County raid may have been illegal, legal experts warn. But it definitely raises fears for 2026

This narrative of "Trump slayed 9% inflation" is complicated by the fact that he actually inherited a 2.8% inflation rate. Sen Kennedy announced earlier today that he was tired of lying about it.
