The Justice Department is compiling the largest set of national voter roll data it has ever collected. They claim their goal is to prove that “troves of undocumented immigrants have voted illegally.” That’s not the real objective. Trump is rapidly losing ground, and the MAGA movement is collapsing under the weight of Epstein connections. The actual goal is to seize control of local elections.
The U.S. doesn’t currently have a centralized voter roll, states manage their own. Creating one, even under a false pretense, would establish the infrastructure for unprecedented federal control over elections. And once such a system exists, it can be repurposed for surveillance, law enforcement, and partisan manipulation. No one builds a massive national database of Americans’ personal information for a good reason.
With a federal-level dataset, Trump and his allies would gain immense insight into demographics, mobility patterns, and voting behavior. Even if no fraud is uncovered (as is almost certain) the fear generated by claims of “illegal voting” could be weaponized to justify stricter voter ID laws, proof-of-citizenship requirements, or restrictions on mail-in and early voting. And while Trump benefited from some of these methods in the past, controlling them in the future ensures he can pick and choose the rules that most benefit him and disadvantage his opponents.
In the USA, we don’t build national databases of our citizens for surveillance. We value the right to privacy. The only times in history where systems like these were developed were in Nazi Germany (1930s–1940s), Apartheid South Africa (1950s–1990s), and the Soviet Union & Eastern Bloc states. We don’t think much more explanation is needed, these systems were never developed for the right reasons.
