Over the weekend, TGP reported that the Biden regime was harassing a local county clerk in Missouri in an effort to plant federal DOJ employees onsite during today’s election process.
Assistant US Attorney Charles Thomas wrote Cole County Missouri Clerk Steve Korsmeyer this week and notified him that the Biden DOJ will be in Jefferson City, Missouri on Monday and Tuesday to inspect and harass election officials during the midterm elections in Missouri.
Charles Thomas says he is working with the Disability Rights Section of the Civil Rights Division of the DOJ.
As most of you are aware, this is the most radical far-left office in the US government.
Why are they making a visit to the middle of Missouri on election day? Why did they spring this on the Cole County Clerk now?
And does the DOJ have jurisdiction over Missouri elections?
And should they not have gone through the Secretary of State’s office?
Secretary of State Jay Ashcroft is very capable, and honest, and has an open door. Why did they bypass the Missouri Secretary of State?
On Sunday Secretary of State Ashcroft responded on Twitter to the actions by the corrupt Biden DOJ.
Secretary of State Ashcroft announced he was supporting Steve Korsmeyer, who rightfully declined the DOJ’s offer to harass voters in Cole County.
Under Missouri law, the local election authority is empowered to decide who, other than voters and poll workers, may be at polling locations. Cole County Clerk Steve Korsmeyer has rightfully declined to allow this over-reach and the secretary of state’s office fully supports him.

While the U.S. DOJ could clearly learn a lot from Missouri about non-partisanship and how to administer accessible, secure and credible elections, it would be highly inappropriate for federal agents to violate the law by intimidating Missouri voters at the polls on Election Day.

Secretary of State Ashcroft goes further and offer the DOJ to discuss their request further at his office. SOS Ashcroft backs the local county clerk.
If the DOJ desires to meet to discuss this matter further, they may meet at my office instead of trying to bully a hard working county official.
