The Rob Carson Show · · from the transcriptPost →What we found
Supports. The Seattle Times reports DHS ordered a voter fraud surge in nine states, naming exactly Washington, Wisconsin, Missouri, Georgia, California, Pennsylvania, Nevada, New York and Connecticut, based on internal guidance cited by CNN.[2]
Supports. The Reno Gazette Journal reports HSI launching a 'coordinated criminal voter fraud surge initiative' on Sept. 1 across Nevada and seven other states, listing the same nine states, with a DHS spokesperson saying HSI is 'actively rooting out and investigating election fraud wherever it can be found.'[3]
Supports. USA Today reports the Trump administration is launching a new voter fraud investigation in Wisconsin and eight other states via the Homeland Security Investigations division, citing federal guidance reviewed by CNN; a DHS spokesperson confirmed the focus on noncitizen voting.[4]
Supports. Yahoo News reports HSI offices in the nine named states were expected to take investigative action from early September through mid-October under the same internal guidance.[5]
Context. Reuters (tier1) reports that the White House pushed DHS to speed review of at least 47 state voter rolls under its Unlawful Voter Initiative, which places the nine-state surge within a broader DHS voter-roll effort.[1]
Context. The nine-state surge rests on reported internal guidance rather than an official public DHS announcement listing the states, and DHS declined to comment on active investigations, so the state list is not confirmed by a primary DHS document in these sources.[2][3]
