      Um. So, this "Statement by the Press Secretary" says "today I signed an executive order to dissolve the Commission." [That's not how this works.]

      Also, perhaps obviously, there is no public executive order at this point.

      Kobach Cmsn was created to justify Trump’s lie that 3-5m people voted illegally in 2016. Its overreaching data request was met w/ bipartisan derision by Secs of State. Dozens of lawsuits were filed incl by one of its members. The Cmsn met its proper fate. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/post-politics/wp/2017/01/23/at-white-house-trump-tells-congressional-leaders-3-5-million-illegal-ballots-cost-him-the-popular-vote/ …

          Despite that kerfuffle over the White House statement, this move was clearly planned out, given DOJ's quick move to file notice in all 8 pending cases. https://www.buzzfeed.com/zoetillman/trump-just-disbanded-his-contested-election-integrity?utm_term=.frvYvn1a3#.csy1O7z5Z …pic.twitter.com/niRkIeGb6Y

          What do you make of the assignment - tucked away at the very end - that DHS will continue "further reviews"? Will we end up with ICE agents stationed at polling places to "ensure election integrity"? Exactly who would stop that on election day?

          Should there be concern about the push to DHS?
