The Trump administration has increased its attempts to influence the country’s elections. Markwayne Mullin, Secretary of Homeland Security, has warned local election officials of possible jail time if they fail to comply with demands for voter information. This action comes after the president’s televised speech in which he revisited already disproven allegations concerning the integrity of U.S. elections.
White House correspondent Liz Landers provides insights on these developments. Landers is part of PBS News Hour and focuses on covering the White House and the Trump administration. Her previous experience includes working as a national security correspondent for Scripps News, where she also investigated disinformation.
