Don’t be fooled by news of Trump's Executive Order dissolving the so-called Commission on Election Integrity. Trump is not ending the #KrisKobach scheme to attack, he’s moving it into Homeland Security as per Kobach’s original plan.

#Kobach gloats that Homeland Security is exempt from Freedom of Information Act demands and public hearings — that was part his original plan given to Trump.

#FOIA

#Kobach claims Homeland Security can REQUIRE states to turn over voter records and can secretly gather lists of "double" or "alien" voters — this is #KKKobach’s "#Crosscheck" on steroids.

The one Democrat on #Kobach’s committee, Maine Secretary of State Matthew Dunlap, warns: "Homeland Security operates very much in the dark…and I think people should be, frankly, frightened by that." nytimes.com/2018/01/03/us/…

#Kobach will be advising Homeland Security and that’s MORE dangerous than operating through an open committee. This is not a win for progressives — it's a brilliant chess move by #KKKobach. breitbart.com/big-government… #Crosscheck
