DOJ demanded voter files from all 50 states.

DOJ sued 31 states for refusing their demand.

My firm is 5-0.

Noem’s spending review has held up more than 1,000 FEMA contracts, grants and awards, Dems say Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem’s policy of personally reviewing expenditures of more than $100,000 has held up more than 1,000 contracts, grants and awards at the Federal Emergency Managem…

“When disaster strikes, communities need critical assistance from FEMA as quickly as possible. These delays created by Secretary Noem’s directive are not only failing to make government more efficient, they are causing serious harm.”
