President Trump’s former White House adviser Steve Bannon is calling for ICE agents to be deployed at polling sites during the midterm elections. His comments come just days after President Trump called on Republicans to “nationalize” voting in the U.S.
Steve Bannon: “And you’re damn right we’re going to have ICE surround the polls come November. We’re not going to sit here and allow you to steal the country again. And you can — you can whine and cry and throw your toys out of the pram all you want, but we will never again allow an election to be stolen.”
In response, Democratic Senator Ed Markey said, “This is a red alert moment. We have to start working to protect polling places from Trump’s paramilitary ICE goons before it’s too late.” Meanwhile, Republican Congressmember Barry Loudermilk said he won’t seek reelection this November, becoming the 29th House Republican incumbent to leave office early or announce a resignation. Republicans currently hold a slim four-seat majority in the House.
