Of course, doesn't everyone?


Isn't that pretty much the whole point of PAC'S?

They're unregulated.

Think of the PAC national ads during the NFL season.

The point of the HI law is to take away that PAC power. The courts will ultimately decide. Idk whether it will work on the interstate example you cite.

This has been a DonOLD priority for months:

Senate blocks Trump-backed SAVE America Act as four Republicans join Democrats

... The amendment, introduced by Senator Lindsey Graham, R-SC, as part of a nearly $70 billion immigration enforcement funding package, failed in a 48-50 vote, falling short of the 60 votes required for passage. Republican Senators Susan Collins of Maine, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Mitch McConnell of Kentucky and Thom Tillis of North Carolina joined all Democrats in opposing the measure.

60 votes, it never had a chance no matter what the honorable four Repubs did. When history looks at how rotten Moscow Mitch was for America these last couple of years he's established a "Yeah, but ..." defense.

... Trump has repeatedly promoted the SAVE America Act, describing it as his top legislative priority. On Thursday, June 4, he again urged Congress to pass the measure while speaking from the Oval Office, prior to the Senate voting....

I'm not sure if this is legal:

Postal Service won’t deliver mail ballots for states that don’t hand over voter lists, under plan for Trump directive

[O Really]

I'm not sure if this is legal:

I'm quite sure it's not, but when did that ever matter to trumpers?

They have zero problems with willingly breaking the law and delay, delay, delay in the courts as a strategy.

Then, they take brazen advantage of what MAGASCOTUS has made newly "legal".

Trump fires Election Assistance Commission members ahead of midterms

... The official added that the Trump administration has ​been "working ​across all agencies and local partners to safeguard elections from fraud and abuse, ​and investing in a strong infrastructure to sustain that ‌mission especially in the midterm elections."

Elections ARE secure and the vast majority of fraud and abuse has come from MAGAts and other RepuQs.

DonOLD is doing everything he can to corrupt the Midterms and 2028, and he may succeed.

Is voting by mail saved?

One of the Supreme Court’s worst ideas could save the midterms from Trump

Well, that was quick.

On Thursday evening, federal district Judge Indira Talwani issued a new order that temporarily blocks an effort by the Trump administration that appears designed to sabotage voting by mail in the upcoming midterm election. Talwani previously blocked an executive order that President Donald Trump issued in March, which ordered the US Postal Service (USPS) to impose a byzantine array of new regulations on voting by mail, but the Supreme Court reinstated the order on Monday.

Talwani's new order sets up a new legal fight that is almost certain to return to the justices, and it is unclear whether this Court, with its 6-3 Republican majority, will allow Trump to make sweeping and unilateral changes to how the United States conducts its elections so close to an actual Election Day.

That said, while Talwani's new order in League of Women Voters v. Trump is brief, it is well-crafted to persuade at least some members of the Court's Republican majority to break with the leader of their political party.

Talwani relies on a fairly new legal concept known as the "major questions doctrine," that the Court's Republican majority invented in the later part of the Obama administration, and that the Court has only actually used against one president: Joe Biden. Briefly, the doctrine claims that the executive branch may not make policy changes that are too sweeping or too aggressive, often even if a federal statute appears to give it the power to do so.

As the Court summarized this idea in Utility Air Regulatory Group v. EPA (2014), the first Supreme Court decision to articulate the major questions doctrine, "we expect Congress to speak clearly if it wishes to assign to an agency decisions of vast 'economic and political significance.'" ...

One of the Supreme Court’s worst ideas could save the midterms from Trump

Except...

A whistleblower is warning of "potentially catastrophic problems" with the U.S. Postal Service's new system for handling mail ballots. The whistleblower is accusing the agency of flouting court rulings by continuing to work on implementing a Trump executive order to tighten mail voting rules before the November midterm elections.

Described by lawyers as a federal official, the anonymous whistleblower revealed the information about the Postal Service's mail-voting procedures in a disclosure provided to Democratic Sen. Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut that was made public Tuesday. In response, Blumenthal is now questioning Postmaster General David Steiner about the Postal Service's development of a new online portal to house information about voters and their mail ballots.

"The main takeaway for me is that the Postal Service has designed a system to disenfranchise millions of Americans," Blumenthal told reporters. "One third of all Americans cast their ballots by mail, and the USPS puts all of their votes at risk."

We may be safe from USPS/ICE manipulation of this election, maybe.

Election official Trump once asked to 'find 11,780 votes' gives SCOTUS an off-ramp on USPS rule, notes 'ballots are already going into the mail'

Yeesh, could be a mess.

In some places voters have reacted by showing up in massive numbers creating long lines of democracy defenders. We'll see.
