The Spin
Republican narrative
The DOJ is taking decisive action to root out voter fraud by demanding access to state voter rolls that Democrats have corruptly maintained. States refusing transparency about their voter lists clearly have something to hide. This necessary push for election integrity will restore confidence in American elections.
Democratic narrative
The Trump administration is weaponizing the DOJ to build an unconstitutional national voter database under the guise of election integrity. This unprecedented federal power grab is targeting Democrat-run states while fueling false fraud claims. Elections belong to states, not to Trump and Bondi's authoritarian playbook.
