Trump DOJ Announces More Indictments, Guilty Pleas For Voter Fraud While Democrats Insist ‘There’s No Fraud’

The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) announced this week the indictments of ten aliens for voter fraud in Minnesota alone, as well as charges and guilty pleas involving 12 individuals – including three illegal aliens – for election crimes throughout the nation.

According to a DOJ announcement released Wednesday, the ten defendants in Minnesota were found by the Department of Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) to have voted illegally in the November 2022 and 2024 general elections, and the August 2026 primary election. A federal grand jury indicted them separately on September 24 for voter fraud, and all ten have made their initial appearances in federal court.

Details about the defendants can be found here at the DOJ website.

The announcement about the indictments for voter fraud in Minnesota came Monday after the department revealed charges and guilty pleas in the cases of 12 individuals – including three illegal aliens – related to “illegal voting, fraudulent voter registration, and related election crimes across the country,” including in Florida, Kansas, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Texas, Hawaii, and Utah, the DOJ reported.

U.S. Attorney General Todd Blanche, Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Markwayne Mullin, and U.S. Attorney Daniel N. Rosen spoke during a press conference Wednesday about the indictments for voter fraud.

“[E]very voter that votes should know that their vote counts,” Mullin said. “It shouldn’t be canceled by an illegal or someone illegally voting in those elections, and that’s exactly what happens. The only people that should be choosing our leaders are American citizens that are legally able to vote.”

Mullin said the investigations into voter fraud are increasing rapidly.

“When we start talking about cases – yes, we just made 10 – I think we just had 10 convictions,” he said. “We have 100 administrative arrests, 53 criminal arrests, 37 indictments, and 10 convictions – and we’re just getting started. We have over 1,600 voter fraud cases that we are currently investigating, and we have 300,000 more that we’re getting to.”

Trump DOJ Opens Investigation Into Texas Democrat PAC After Operative Caught on Tape Bragging About a “Roundabout” Way of “Paying People” for Votes

The Justice Department has opened an investigation into Texas Majority PAC after a viral undercover video showed a since-fired organizing manager spelling out what he called a “roundabout way of paying people for their votes” ahead of the midterms.

A source familiar confirmed the probe on Wednesday. The investigation was first reported by Fox News Digital, which said two sources familiar with the matter confirmed the department is looking at the Democrat operation that dumps millions into flipping Texas blue.

The footage that forced the feds’ hand was released by Townhall on September 16. Sky McAdams, then an organizing manager for Texas Majority PAC, sat down with an undercover journalist and walked through the loophole he said the group uses to skirt federal election law while boosting Democrat U.S. Senate candidate James Talarico.

“We are paying people $25 to attend a one-hour Zoom class to learn why voting is important and why the Republicans are causing all of these bad things,” McAdams said on the tape. “So it’s like a roundabout way of paying people for their votes, essentially.”

He did not stop there. McAdams told the undercover reporter you cannot hand someone cash and say, “Here’s $25, go vote for me.” What you can do, he said, is pay them to sit through a class. “And then the class just talks about the importance of… It’s a little gray.”

He named the program. “It’s called the Paid Relational Program.” He added that he thought “Rally Texas” was the official name. Then he said the quiet part out loud: “If I was a Republican, I would be pissed. I would be like, that’s shady as f**k.”

The Gateway Pundit reported the tape the day it dropped. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, the Republican Talarico is trying to beat, did not mince words.

Feds arrest, indict hundreds in Trump voter fraud crackdown: ‘Catching it all over the country’

Since the Trump Justice Department warned state and local election officials that they could be charged with allowing fraudulent voting activities, more than 200 arrests and indictments have been secured in a crackdown on election fraud and noncitizen voting, and that number could double soon, a top official revealed to Just the News.

“I think there are a lot of nervous election officials because I think some of them know that they’ve been looking the other way when this is happening, and we’re catching it all over the country,” Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon said Monday night in an interview on the Just the News, No Noise television show.

Dhillon also hinted at further developments in the coming weeks, suggesting her department has developed evidence calling into question New Jersey’s claim that a computer glitch allowed thousands of foreigners to register to vote in that state and about 400 to actually cast ballots in violation of law.

“I’m not sure we have the correct numbers from New Jersey. They’re not really cooperating with us, and so we will get to the bottom of what happened there. And you know, New Jersey tried to blame a vendor for a mistake or a glitch, quote unquote. But you know, I think there’ll be another side to that story,” she said.

The software vendor Dhillon referred to is IDEMIA, which told Just the News in July that it was the responsibility of New Jersey officials to verify voter registration.

“IDEMIA works with the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission, and has for more than 40 years, to support the process through which eligible individuals may indicate their interest in registering to vote when applying for or renewing a driver’s license or state-issued identification card. IDEMIA’s role is to transmit information through the motor vehicle system,” IDEMIA said in that statement.

“The voter registration information is transmitted to the New Jersey Department of State, Division of Elections, which is ultimately responsible for verifying eligibility to vote. Information submitted by IDEMIA must still be validated and adjudicated by the Division of Elections.”

Dhillon further stated that in the past several weeks, her office has indicted or convicted 67 individuals for election-related crimes, while the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has made more than 160 arrests.

“What we care about is that noncitizens who voted in a federal election canceled out the votes of American citizens. It does happen. It happens a lot more than anybody says. It wasn’t being prosecuted under the Biden DOJ. In the four years of the Biden DOJ, they prosecuted a total of 13 people for election-related crimes, and we’ve done more than that in the last week here at DOJ,” she said.

The law enforcement crackdown was prompted by an initiative led by the Trump White House and Chief of Staff Susie Wiles to forge an all-of-government approach to growing Americans’ trust in elections by punishing wrongdoers, cleaning voter rolls, and eliminating noncitizen voting, Just the News has learned. A small group from multiple federal agencies has met with Wiles weekly for months to coordinate the strategy.

Left-wing organizations, including the Brookings Institution, the Brennan Center for Justice, and the American Immigration Council, among others, have all claimed that noncitizen voting is either not happening or is incredibly rare.

Recent data suggests otherwise.

Michigan County Clerk: “9 out of 10 voter registrations” received by clerks in my County Are Fraudulent—One Clerk Received 47 for ONE Person!

Macomb County, Michigan, with its heavy blue-collar population, was responsible for President Trump winning the swing state in 2016. Macomb County’s blue-collar vote helped put Michigan — and the presidency — in Donald Trump’s column in 2016. After the state was handed to Joe Biden in November 2020, that same county forged some of Michigan’s most relentless election-integrity fighters.

Fast forward ten years to 2026, and Macomb County Clerk Anthony Forlini is on the ballot as the Republican candidate for Secretary of State, replacing the nation’s most corrupt Secretary of State, Jocelyn Benson. For the first time since Michigan Republican Senator Ruth Johnson held the office, Michigan has a real chance at cleaning up its voter rolls.

Anthony Forlini is not an in-your-face type candidate; however, he is quietly proving to Michigan voters that he’s serious about removing non-citizens, dead voters, fake registrations, and duplicate voters from its voter rolls.

Stacey Abrams Tours CT— That Is The Tell Connecticut’s Elections Are Suspect

When Stacey Abrams shows up in your state to lecture you about election integrity, you should ask yourself one question — why her?

Abrams has spent years positioning herself as the national standard-bearer for “voting rights” — a cause she adopted after refusing to concede her 2018 Georgia governor’s race. But The Georgia Record (a CDM outlet) has documented her fingerprints on one of the most troubled election cycles in modern American history: the 2020 Georgia election, where a temp staffing firm called Happy Faces Personnel — tied directly to Abrams — was credibly accused of criminal behavior at polling locations in Fulton County.

Eyewitness accounts published by The Georgia Record described probable criminal behavior by Happy Faces temp employees during the 2020 Georgia election cycle. The firm had been financed with Abrams-linked money and was later the subject of fierce local opposition when Fulton County Commissioners voted to renew its contract. North Fulton County jurisdictions were so alarmed they sought to break away and run their own elections rather than tolerate Happy Faces for another cycle.

None of that history followed Abrams to Hartford last weekend.

Trump Administration Has Made 151 Voter Fraud Arrests, Investigating 1,620 Additional Cases

Department of Homeland Security chief Markwayne Mullin has announced that the administration is probing 1,620 cases of voter fraud involving noncitizens illegally casting ballots.

Mullin added that the department has already made 151 arrests and that there are as many as 300,000 additional cases that are set to be investigated, Fox News reported.

“We’re scrubbing them. We’re comparing them to those that are in the country illegally, those that are legal permanent residents and those that are citizens,” Mullin said of noncitizens voting.

Of the fraud in U.S. elections, Mullin added, “We continue to see that. Every single vote, Kayleigh, that we talk about, that was at the hands of an illegal canceled out a citizen that was legally registered and able to vote.”

The announcement comes as the Trump administration continues to focus on voter fraud. As Breitbart News reported in July, the White House released documents showing that at least 250,000 foreign nationals are illegally registered to vote in California, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Nevada alone.

DOJ Crackdown on Illegal Alien Voting Picks Up Steam with Charges Announced in Seven States

The Department of Justice (DOJ) has put illegal voters on notice with the 2026 midterms only weeks away, announcing charges against 16 people in multiple states for election crimes that include noncitizens casting ballots.

As one DOJ official put it, “American elections are for Americans.”

The charges, which include illegal voting, illegal voter registration, wire fraud, passport and identity fraud, and even firearm offenses were detailed in a lengthy DOJ release Friday.

It was followed by a warning on social media, with the DOJ writing, “If you are not allowed to vote in our elections, you shouldn’t. And if you do, that’s a CRIME. This isn’t a partisan issue!”

In addition to these charges, U.S. Attorney General Todd Blanche stepped up to a White House lectern on Tuesday and announced charges against 11 individuals for illegally voting or fraudulently registering in the 2022 and 2024 elections.

“We are seeing illegal aliens voting,” Blanche told reporters.

According to the DOJ release, eight noncitizens residing in Texas were charged, while the other cases involved defendants in Idaho, Georgia, Massachusetts, Wisconsin, New Jersey, and Michigan.

The cases are part of a Trump administration crackdown on threats to the integrity of the U.S. election system.

The examples in the DOJ statement were striking.

According to a Fox News summary:

In Georgia, DOJ said Analiea Milliscent Eccles, a Venezuelan national and DACA recipient, voted nine times between 2008 and 2024. She was charged with voting as a noncitizen and falsely claiming U.S. citizenship to vote.

Avila Gomez, a Mexican national residing in Idaho, is accused of falsely claiming U.S. citizenship to register to vote and then voting in May 2022 and November 2024. The indictment also includes wire fraud, passport, identification-document and firearm-related charges.

Illegal Alien Indicted by Federal Grand Jury for Numerous Crimes Including Voter Fraud and Theft of Government Funds

An illegal alien from Mexico was indicted by a federal grand jury this week for numerous crimes, including voter fraud, making a false statement applying for a passport, and unlawful possession of a firearm.

Fredy Avila Gomez is also being indicted on wire fraud and stealing government funds.

Based on court records, from 2017 to 2026, Gomez intentionally defrauded US government agencies and the State of Idaho. The list of agencies included Health and Human Services, Idaho Department of Health and Welfare, and the Centers for Medicaid and Medicare Services.

Gomez allegedly made false claims to be a citizen of the United States in order to vote in elections.

He has his first court appearance scheduled for September 21st in the US District Court for the District of Idaho. Gomez is looking at a maximum of 20 years in federal prison if he is convicted on the charges.

The prosecutors handling the case are Assistant US Attorneys Sean Mazorol and Darci Crane.

The DOJ created the National Fraud Enforcement Division earlier this year to prosecute individuals committing fraud against the United States and its citizens.

Another One: Mexican Alien Granted Legal Status Under Obama Arrested in Texas for Illegally Voting

Another alien has been arrested for illegally voting, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) confirmed on Thursday.

This follows the arrest of several illegal voters this week alone. In Texas, Attorney General Ken Paxton announced the arrest of seven foreign nationals who had already been indicted for illegal activity tied to the 2024 general election on Tuesday.

Still, Democrats say this almost never happens, and the spineless Republicans in the Senate, led by RINO John Thune, caved on the SAVE Act.

The Daily Wire reported on Thursday that federal immigration authorities also arrested Ludwig Uriel Espejo-Carrillo, a Mexican national and green card holder in El Paso, Texas, who lied about his citizenship to vote in American elections.

According to the report, Espejo-Carrillo became a lawful permanent resident under Obama, and he is now awaiting deportation.

Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin described the alien’s actions as a “threat to our republic.”

“We cannot and will not allow the votes of American citizens to be canceled out by non-citizens illegally voting in our elections,” Mullin said.

Russian National Sentenced to Six Years in Prison for Voter Fraud, ID Theft Scam in Florida

Dmitry Shushlebin, 45, a Russian citizen living in Miami Beach, Florida, was sentenced on Wednesday to six years in prison and three years of supervised release for organizing an identity theft fraud scheme and ordered to pay $458,839.69 in restitution.

According to the Department of Justice (DOJ), Shushlebin’s scheme included efforts to submit more than 100 fraudulent voter registration applications to create fake identities that he could use to commit financial fraud.

Per the DOJ:

On July 24, 2025, the United States filed a four-count superseding information charging Shushlebin with conspiracy to give false information in registering to vote and submit fraudulent voter registrations, wire fraud, making false statements, and aggravated identity theft. Shushlebin pleaded guilty to all four counts on July 25, 2025.

According to court documents, Shushlebin hired Sanjar Jamilov, an Uzbekistani national, and others to submit more than 100 fraudulent voter registration applications to the Pinellas County Supervisor of Elections in February and March 2023.

One purpose of registering these fake voters was to create synthetic or fake identities that Shushlebin could use to commit financial fraud. Shushlebin used the fake identities to obtain fraudulent credit cards and loans. He perpetrated this scheme against the victim financial institutions hundreds of times using hundreds of different synthetic identities.

Assistant Attorney General A. Tysen Duva of the Justice Department’s Criminal Division noted, “Those who engage in fraud and deception in our election processes will be investigated and prosecuted.”

“After arriving in the United States, Dmitry Shushlebin created sham companies to facilitate a multi-year financial fraud scheme. He used these companies to commit identity theft, which allowed him to create synthetic or fake identities that appeared real after they were used to submit over 100 false voter registrations.”

U.S. Attorney Gregory W. Kehoe for the Middle District of Florida added, “Voting is one of the most significant rights and responsibilities Americans have.”

“We will continue to investigate threats to the integrity of our electoral process and prosecute those who engage in fraud or other means to violate our nation’s voting laws.”
