The Report: facts and sourcing
President Donald Trump's Justice Department has shown a willingness to intervene directly in Tuesday's midterm elections, Reuters reported, breaking with decades of practice meant to avoid the appearance that law enforcement powers are being used to benefit a party or candidate.
In California, the department sought to set aside mail-in ballots from about 20,000 voters it alleges are likely non-U.S. citizens ineligible to vote, Reuters reported. The allegation has not been proven in court.
Everything above this line is reported fact, attributed to the sources listed. The Scripture Connection is our interpretation, offered by Christians who read the whole Bible, Old and New Testament, with an Israelite-rooted understanding.
