Other shoe drops;

Trump attacks voting rights in aftermath of dissolving task force.

edit: now that i've sen the video, it was actually presidential.
he pushed voter ID, but also claimed to be against voter suppression.
there may have ben dog whistles, but i agreed with much of what he said.
perhaps i'll be able to find a transcript.
Trump sounds call for voter ID laws to fix 'rigged' system, after disbanding fraud panel
“Many mostly Democrat States refused to hand over data from the 2016 Election to the Commission On Voter Fraud. They fought hard that the Commission not see their records or methods because they know that many people are voting illegally. System is rigged, must go to Voter I.D.,” Trump tweeted.
Full Coverage

Hasen had initially posted that the firing of the task force was a victory.
How I see it is that hans and kris and that third one, edit to follow, will keep doing what they do, but need no longer follow administrative procedures. Trump stands ready to implement their policy choices, however informally communicated.

Off to read today's stories.
For the record, I still prefer trump over clinton.
