Alex Padilla: “I was glad to hear this week that the Department has decreased the amount of time that children spend in Border Patrol…”

Any DOJ action that could spoil an election would be one of the most serious constitutional violations imaginable.

This incident is a stark reminder of the very real danger facing those who serve the public and who help administer our elections in the face of increasingly hostile political rhetoric.

Their only hope for trying to maintain any sense of power is to interfere. It’s to change the rules. It’s to rig the elections.

This lawsuit has no legal basis or evidence behind it and is nothing more than a blatant abuse of power designed to sow distrust in our elections and threaten Americans’ right to vote.
