The Donald Trump White House is nothing if not a bunch of vindictive assholes.
When the voter fraud (of which there is only one known case, of a Republic douchebag attempting to vote twice) committee was put together by that bastion of public security, Kris Kobach, they solicited comments from the public.
And didn’t tell the public who responded that they’d publish their names, email addresses, and physical mailing addresses.
