Judge: Trump voter fraud commission on ice till next year

By JOSH GERSTEIN 11/20/2017 08:10 PM EST

A commission that President Donald Trump tasked with investigating his own unsubstantiated claims of voter fraud won’t meet again this year, according to court records, fueling more questions about the panel’s future and its viability.

In an order Monday, U.S. District Court Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly said a Justice Department attorney told the court Friday that the President’s Advisory Commission on Election Integrity “will not meet in December.”

Federal rules require such committee meetings to be announced 15 days in advance, except for emergencies, so no meeting seems feasible this month,

Asked about the lawyer’s reported statement Monday, the White House declined to comment on the record.

They'll be back after the first of the year rested and refreshed and ready to supress the votes of all non-repubs.
