I'm pretty sure that's a reference to the midterm elections in November 2026

Social media post from Senator Chris Murphy: Pam Bondi just sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump. Guess what? This has never been about safety or immigration. It's a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states

If they want voter information don't they just ask Microsoft? Or Facebook? Or Google/Amazon/Apple? Pretty sure any one of them are more than capable of supplying far more detailed information than a state government.

    Pretty sure they don't have everything. And even if they did, what they probably want more than anything is submission. If they can get a state to hand over that kind of highly sensitive information they are sending a signal they can coerce anyone to do anything.
