| Pamela, here in Georgia, the FBI just raided an elections office in our largest county, seizing ballots and records from the 2020 election — which Donald Trump is still trying to claim he won. Take a look at these headlines: "'Five alarm fire for democracy': Dems, voting advocates voice outrage at FBI raid of Georgia elections office"
—Democracy Docket "FBI raid in Georgia highlights Trump's 2020 election obsession and hints at possible future actions"
—Associated Press "The events this week in Fulton County remind us that [Trump] has many tools at his disposal to try to mess with [elections]. It's not too early to plan against another attempt to overturn democratically conducted elections in the United States."
—Richard L. Hasen, Slate "Sending 25 FBI agents to raid our Fulton County elections office is political theater and part of a concerted effort to take over elections in swing districts across the country...Let's be clear: Trump wants full control of the outcome of the 2026 and 2028 elections because he knows they can't win without it."
—Fulton County Commissioner Dana Barrett It's Trump's classic playbook, and it's the stuff of autocracy: if he can't win at the ballot box, he will try to cheat. He's worried that Republican politicians who support his abuses of power will lose in 2026 because Americans plainly see ICE's violence, feel the rising cost of living, and are watching our economy weaken. Trump should be worried. We're fighting back against the Trump GOP's voter suppression so every voter has a fair chance to make their voice heard at the ballot box.
