Today we are highlighting one of the most calculated power plays in modern American politics: the deliberate counting of illegal aliens in the census, paired with aggressive gerrymandering, to inflate Democratic House seats, shift Electoral College leverage, and lock in control of federal resources. States are currently required to count every person residing here for apportionment purposes. Democrats have weaponized that rule. By including millions of non-citizens who are here unlawfully, they boost the population totals in blue strongholds. Those inflated numbers then drive the drawing of congressional districts that make it structurally harder for Republicans to compete. Combined with race-based map drawing and selective enforcement of election rules, the result is a system tilted before a single ballot is cast. Joining us today is Marshall Yates, Strategic Counsel at the Oversight Project and the leader of its REPAIR Initiative, Redistricting and Election Protection for American Integrity and Representation. Yates previously served as Assistant Director of the FBI’s Office of Congressional Affairs, as Chief of Staff on Capitol Hill, and as Executive Director of the Election Integrity Network. He also worked on the Justice Department’s Weaponization Working Group and as a staffer on the House Judiciary Subcommittee examining the weaponization of the federal government. He is now leading nationwide litigation and oversight efforts to challenge who gets counted in the census and these maps to protect the integrity of representation.
