NEW: Trump’s team is plotting to declare a fake national emergency to hijack elections.
One top operative says they can “take steps without Congress” and “mandate" election rules for states.

Heather Honey (Trump DHS appointee) floated using national emergency powers to mandate election rules for states as early as March.
Honey is part of the Election Integrity Network, a group that spreads disinformation, pressures election officials & pushes to rig election rules.

Honey is well-known for spreading the false claim that Pennsylvania had “more votes than voters” – the same BS that Trump repeated on January 6th.
NYT: "The claim has been repeatedly disputed by election officials who said she was misinterpreting and misusing a state database"

Trump is embedding EIN operatives into the government to push his election takeover agenda, all built on lies about his 2020 loss.
In addition to Honey, Marci McCarthy now serves as CISA’s Public Affairs Director – an agency that helps safeguard U.S. election infrastructure.

EIN is shaping national policy.
Cleta Mitchell, (EIN founder) Trump's lawyer who joined his call to pressure Georgia's Secretary of State to find votes, develop policies that informed Trump’s March executive order and the SAVE Act.

Last month, Honey led a call with election officials from nearly every state.
Instead of offering clarity, officials left alarmed.
Honey echoed debunked conspiracy theories, offered vague, unsettling plans for the federal role in elections & didn't give details on her DHS job.

EIN seems to be using a playbook to decimate the independence and fairness of elections:
– Sow doubt in elections
– Install loyalists in government
– Use doubt sowed to push "emergency"
– Change election rules
It's a federal strategy to control elections and rig our democracy.

Core to EIN's strategy is pushing the limits of executive power.
They’re using executive orders + federal agencies instead of Congress.
Trump in April: “We’re gonna get good elections pretty soon...the states are just an agent of the federal government."

Already this year, courts have reaffirmed what our Constitution makes clear – the president has no legal authority over elections.
Judges have blocked Trump’s March executive order on elections – a move courts called an overreach that belongs to the states, not the White House.

Despite the rulings, Trump allies are pressing ahead.
The DOJ is collecting massive voter roll data, DHS is pressuring states to upload files, and Honey is spreading false claims and framing the directives as “best practices.”
It’s election disinformation rebranded as policy.

Independent elections are the foundation of freedom. If Trump can control our elections, he can dismantle other checks on power.
Protecting free, state-run elections is the firewall between democracy and authoritarianism.

Trump knows he can’t cancel the 2026 midterms – so he’s trying to rig them instead.
