Ari Berman on Trump's Attack on Elections Ahead of Midterms



We get an update on elections and voting rights in the United States from Mother Jones's national voting rights correspondent, Ari Berman, who warns of President Donald Trump's escalating attempts to "try to claim dictatorial power" and commit an "unprecedented intervention" into the 2026 midterm elections. Whether it takes the form of claims of foreign interference, canceling mail-in voting or requiring proof of citizenship, "[t]he bottom line here is they keep lying about the 2020 election so that they can justify massive interference in the 2026 election," says Berman. "That's something that we all need to be very vigilant about."
