Episode Details

A federal judge just slammed a former president’s mail-in voting executive order, blocking key provisions that would’ve forced states to notify the Postal Service months ahead of elections and mandated federal agencies to compile lists of voting-age citizens. The judge ruled the president overstepped constitutional authority, emphasizing states alone control voter eligibility. The order also halted Homeland Security and Social Security from creating those citizen lists — a move deemed legally baseless. With November elections looming, election officials are relieved but wary of potential chaos. This latest ruling joins a growing wave of legal defeats for the administration’s election interference efforts, including recent blocks on using the SAVE program to hunt noncitizen voters. Federal agencies now have a week to inform staff that these directives are void.
