Alex Padilla: “Thank you, Mr. Chair. Good morning to the witnesses.”

We’ve seen this coming: Donald Trump’s Department of Justice with no authority is now actively trying to interfere in the 2026 elections and strong-arm California into purging names from our voter rolls and blocking mail ballots based…

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.

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

We will fight this illegal overreach every step of the way.
