Trump Guts Task Forces Protecting Elections
February 13, 2019 at 10:55 pm EST By Taegan Goddard
One of the task forces is now half the size it was a few months ago and theres no indication that DHS senior political leadership will staff it up or sustain it. Instead, there are concerns it will completely wither away. The other task force also shrunk significantly shortly after the midterms and before its members produced a thorough assessment of what happened during the 2018 elections.

(25,270 posts)on the cable news shows and the rest of the Dems being loudly supportive of them. I better hear MSM press ask Trump why he cut back here. I better hear MSM ask Repugs if they support Trump doing this. We didn't come all this way from 2016 and the Mueller Investigation to allow Trump to do a repeat of 2016. This is an outrage.

So much to see here. This should be enlarged to WALL proportions, then hung in the Metropolitan Museum of TrustyElf Masterpieces.

(16,093 posts)Kirstjen M. Nielsen. She's been in Trump's pocket since she got the job...she will do anything to gain Trump's favor! He brow beat her in a cabinet meeting and she's still loyal to him...she's either suffering from Battered Woman Syndrome or she's as much of a racist as he is...

(2,272 posts)to show how the rethuglican party REALLY want's to play. A cancer on our Nation. Can the House set up a task force/entity of some kind to assist the ones being decimated? Or even to replace them as we've seen that's its impossible to trust anything even remotely related to elections that the right wing touches.
Or does trump and his enablers WANT the average Russian citizen to choose our president/senate/house races? Only about half snark on that...

Both domestic and foreign election interference will be a serious threat to democracy from now on.......
