Mother Jones (2/11/26)
This week on CounterSpin: Trump and congressional Republicans are pushing for changes to the electoral process that would make it harder for millions of people to vote, and some media are still presenting it as a matter of “election integrity.” Voter advocates describe things like the Save America Act as aiming to make the US into a “show us your papers” dystopia. That bill likely won’t make it out of the Senate, but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t be sounding the alarm, loudly, about the various multi-level efforts this White House is pursuing to take control of elections away from the people.
We hear that worrisome and enraging story from Ari Berman, national voting rights correspondent for Mother Jones, and author of Give Us the Ballot: The Modern Struggle for Voting Rights in America, among other titles.
Plus Janine Jackson takes a quick look at recent press commentary on Iran.
