BREAKING: The DOJ asked the 4th Circuit to expedite its appeal for access to Maryland's unredacted voter rolls, claiming it "is necessary to secure" the midterms. It argued the state needs time to "maintain" its rolls, despite federal law limiting voter roll purges too close to an election.

* Ultimately, Civil War does not try to map out an exact future timeline. Instead, it uses a fictional conflict to show how quickly ordinary life can vanish when political division transforms into violence. *

I'm trying to catch up- is MD one of the states whose AGs are suing the DOJ? Tysm

The DOJ has no jurisdiction regarding Maryland's voter rolls, they need to stop this blatant disregard for States rights under the Constitution.

Bookmark that pleading for when they (inevitably) turn 180 and insist that the mandatory pre-election quiet period really doesn't exist, or doesn't bind them, or isn't Constitutional, or something.

Is the 4th circuit a guarantee trump will get his way? Did they ‘judge shop’? I know nothing about them… Hoping they’ll say NO!🤞💙
