Donald Trump and his merry band of white supremacists continue to work day and night to make life harder for non-white Americans. In the latest chapter of skullduggery, the voter suppression commission, led by Mike Pence and chief voter suppression champion Kris Kobach, is refusing to follow federal law regarding proper use of email, according to a report by ProPublica.

Yes, you read that correctly: After years of pretending that Hillary Clinton’s misuse of email was the biggest scandal in the history of the universe, Pence and his cronies are blatantly ignoring federal law regarding email use and retention.

The commission “came under fire earlier this month when a lawsuit and media reports revealed that the commissioners were using private emails to conduct public business,” ProPublica notes, adding that Kobach “confirmed this week that most of them continue to do so.”

While the commission may be trying to hide communications between members, its overarching purpose is still very clear: to suppress the voting rights of poor people, young people, racial minorities, and other demographic groups more likely to vote for Democrats.
