Trump's DOJ focuses in on voter fraud, with a murky assist from DOGE
Briefly

In a recent example of illegal voting charges, Yelyzaveta Demydenko and her mother, both Ukrainian green card holders, are facing prosecution for voting in the U.S. presidential election. They represent the initial efforts of the Justice Department under President Trump to tackle what the administration has described as rampant non-citizen voting, despite a lack of evidence supporting widespread fraud. These cases arise as part of a crackdown on voting laws and coincide with enhanced scrutiny from various governmental groups, although substantial evidence of conspiracy is yet to emerge.
Last October, Yelyzaveta Demydenko and her mother, both green card holders from Ukraine, faced charges for voting illegally in the presidential election, highlighting concerns over non-citizen voting.
Federal charges against Demydenko and others reflect a broader effort spurred by the Trump administration to prosecute illegal voting, despite no evidence of a widespread conspiracy.
