Trump SMACKED with LAWSUIT He FEARED in RECORD SPEED

Donald Trump issued an executive order creating a 'suppressive contraption' involving the Department of Homeland Security, Social Security Administration, and the US Postal Service. This order aims to establish a federal voting database and empower postal workers to decide mail-in ballot eligibility, effectively taking control away from states.

The host describes the executive order creating a 'very suppressive contraption between the people and the ballot box consisting of the Department of Homeland Security, the Social Security Administration, and for good measure the US Postal Service, which apparently are going to on the fly create some sort of voting database to try to take it away from the states.'

The executive order is challenged on multiple constitutional grounds, primarily violating Article One and the 10th Amendment, which grant states the right to run elections. It also raises concerns under the Privacy Act of 1978, as it proposes using Social Security information for citizenship tests related to voting without consent.

The host states, 'a little thing called the Constitution, Article One dealing with states having the right to run elections, including, of course, first among them, federal elections, but but other problems, including uh states rights under the 10th Amendment. You've got the Privacy Act of 1978.' Davin Rosboro adds, 'the constitution assigns the power to control the time the uh time place and manner of federal elections first to the states and then to Congress... What it doesn't do is assign responsibilities to make election law to the president or the executive.'

Various groups, including the League of Women Voters, ACLU, and 21 Democratic Attorneys General, swiftly filed multiple lawsuits in different federal courts (Massachusetts, DC). This multi-pronged approach addresses different types of harm (to states, voters, and organizations), navigates the limitations of universal injunctions post-CASA, and leverages potentially favorable circuit case law.

The host details the filings: 'It was kicked off by the League of Women Voters and other voting rights groups led by the American Civil Liberties unions... first to file in a friendly race in Massachusetts... And then a couple of days later, the attorneys general, 21 of them, for the Democratic uh estates, filed also in Massachusetts... And then there's this whole group of of entities down in DC led by the NAACP.' Davin Rosboro explains, 'there's going to be more than one type of harm here... harms to the states themselves... harm to voters... and then you have the organizations themselves.' He also mentions the 'Kasa case' and different jurisdictions/circuit laws.

The ACLU's Voting Rights Project, established in the 1960s after the Voting Rights Act of 1965, continuously litigates to ensure racial justice in voting, protect eligible voters' ability to cast and count ballots, and challenge discriminatory redistricting. Their work spans fighting documentary proof of citizenship laws, protecting mail-in voting during COVID, and combating voter suppression bills.

Davin Rosboro states, 'the ACLU's voting rights project actually goes back to the 60s... there has always been a work uh focus on racial justice within the project. there's always been a focus on making sure that all eligible voters are easily able to cast... their ballots and have them counted.' He cites examples like 'fighting off the first documentary proof of citizenship law in Kansas against Kris Kobach' and 'allowing people to vote safely and easily by mail during the COVID pandemic.'
