White House directing DHS to hunt for voter fraud by naturalized citizens: Sources
Source: MS NOW
The Department of Homeland Security’s chief investigations arm this week launched a broader nationwide campaign to investigate and prosecute naturalized citizens who may have improperly voted in past elections before they became citizens, according to documents reviewed by MS NOW, an effort spurring deep concern among law enforcement agents that the administration’s true goal is to intimidate voters from participating in future elections.
Agents with DHS Homeland Security Investigations were notified last week of the new initiative, in which agents in all field offices are required to review both open and closed cases of suspected illegal voting by noncitizen immigrants, according to the documents and three people familiar with the plan.
Launched at the direction of the White House, the people said, the program requires agents to determine if naturalized citizens voted or registered to vote prior to becoming citizens. Investigators are then asked to submit reports to the White House detailing each case in which they declined to bring charges, the people said. An administration official speaking on background disputed that characterization.
Voting experts have consistently said the Trump administration’s claims of widespread fraudulent voting by immigrants are wildly exaggerated and the number of such incidents is very small. .....
The driving force behind the sweeping HSI investigations is White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller, according to three people relaying concerns about the program. His office has held weekly meetings on the launch of the plan in recent weeks with both DHS and Justice Department leadership, the people said.
Miller is a key proponent of stripping foreign-born citizens of their citizenship as part of a broader deportation strategy, pushing the Justice Department to step up investigations into whether new citizens engaged in any crime or fraud.
Miller has long promoted false and debunked claims that millions of illegal aliens vote in elections, skewing the results to favor Democratic candidates. Last year, he called birthright citizenship an “atrocity” and called out the threat that immigrants — and their children who later gain legal citizenship by being born in America — present to Republican candidates in elections.
