President Donald Trump's advisory commission on election integrity has integrity questions of its own — with some of its own members raising concerns about its openness.

This past week, two members fired off letters to commission staff complaining about a lack of information about the panel's agenda and demanding answers about its activities. That comes as Democratic U.S. senators are requesting a government investigation of the commission for ignoring formal requests from Congress.

The criticism from the commissioners was remarkable because it came from insiders — the very people who are supposed to be privy to its internal discussions and plans.

In a letter sent Oct. 17, Maine Secretary of State Matthew Dunlap said it was clear he was not being made aware of information pertaining to the commission. He requested copies of all correspondence between commission members since Trump signed the executive order creating it in May.

I guess it takes a lot of behind-the-door work for commission Republicans to manufacture evidence of "widespread voter fraud".

1. When very little fraud actually exists....

it's difficult to harvest any information regarding same. The real fraud is the commission itself, and the illegitimate "president" who demanded it. Like Trump's other bone-headed boards, panels, and task forces that have already disbanded, it's time for this one to pass on itself. These were all created very early in Trump's administration in order to give the appearance that he was actually doing something. He wasn't, it was all Kabuki Theater to show his brain-dead supporters what a man of action he is. Job one for him right now is dismantling a system of government that's served the country for nearly 250 years. He needs to be quarantined from the rest of the government. I'd say a 3 year, 3 month quarantine should about cover it, unless Mueller can "cure" his illness.

2. Like Carl Rove said years ago , " we plan to have a congress and president with a permanent

GOP rule " . They have done it by default because the democratic party did not fight them as the gangsters that they are .
