#WhiteHouse announces #ExecutiveOdor creator #Drumpf to sign sweeping #ExecutiveOrder to bar and complicate mail-in #voting. Despite using mail in voting himself, #DJT joined #RWNJ efforts to restrict #votingaccess and hopes to affect likely dire #GOP results expected in 2026 midterms.

New executive order will create an #ExecBranch controlled list of confirmed #citizens who are eligible and #mandates that any #absentee #ballots only be sent to those on #DrumpfAdmin approved list.
