WASHINGTON (AP/WMAL) – Attorney General William Barr has authorized federal prosecutors across the U.S. to pursue “substantial allegations” of voting irregularities before the 2020 presidential election is certified.
It gives prosecutors the ability to go around longstanding Justice Department policy that normally would prohibit such overt actions before the election is formally certified.
President Trump says there’s proof of fraud out there:
Nevada is turning out to be a cesspool of Fake Votes. @mschlapp & @AdamLaxalt are finding things that, when released, will be absolutely shocking!

Pennsylvania prevented us from watching much of the Ballot count. Unthinkable and illegal in this country.
