Our DOJ at Work: Department Sues Virginia for Daring to Do Their Jobs on Election Integrity

    One would think that removing noncitizens from your voting rolls would be a smart thing to do to ensure a fair election in November—but the Harris-Biden Department of Justice evidently disagrees.

    They’re suing the state of Virginia on technical grounds—it’s too close to the election for such procedures, they say. However, it must be pointed out that, with less than three weeks left before the most consequential presidential election in our lifetimes, the same DOJ and their enforcer Jack Smith is busy dropping revised indictments against Donald Trump—in violation of virtually every norm that’s ever been established.

    The governor of the Old Dominion State, Glenn Youngkin, was appalled:

    Utah senator Mike Lee was equally incensed:

    The DOJ alleges that Youngkin is violating the so-called “quiet period”:

    I’m not a lawyer, nor do I play one on TV, and I’m not going to opine on the legal arguments in this case. 

    But I would ask: is this what we envisioned for the top legal department in the United States—that they would be working to prevent a state from removing non-eligible voters from the rolls, that they would be nakedly targeting a former president over political differences, that they would be hassling American citizens for their stances on abortion and parental involvement in schools? We can be forgiven for not trusting a single action that comes out of our once-vaunted institution because Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and Attorney General Merrick Garland have so tarnished the reputation of the DOJ that nothing that comes out of there can be trusted at face value.

    This seems like yet another attempt to rig the system, and you can understand why Glenn Youngkin and Mike Lee are so disgusted.
