US Secretary Mullin reiterates Trump's threats on election reform

Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin has amplified President Donald Trump's threats against states that do not comply with demands for election reform. Mullin's recent speech reiterated Trump's hardline stance, promising a "maximum pressure" campaign to enforce compliance and hinting at accountability for those who allegedly misled the public regarding the 2020 election.

Mullin stated that his department is investigating individuals within the intelligence community and the former Biden administration. "Everybody that purposely misled the American people, abused their power and their authority and decided not to continue doing their job will be held accountable," Mullin declared. This follows Trump's earlier claims of a "deep state" cover-up, which declassified documents released by his White House reportedly failed to substantiate.

This isn’t about rehashing the 2020 election. This is just exposing what took place and to make sure it never happens again.

The administration's immediate focus is on four states: California, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Nevada. Mullin claimed these states have a significant number of non-citizens on their voting rolls and nearly 278,000 foreign nationals registered to vote, though he provided no basis for these statistics. Experts caution that voter registration does not equate to casting a ballot, and instances of non-citizen voting are exceedingly rare, with studies showing it accounts for a minuscule percentage of ballots cast.
