Woofun AI reports that the White House confirmed on the 10th that President Trump removed two sitting members of the U.S. Election Assistance Commission. This action follows the earlier removal of Democratic members Thomas Hicks and Benjamin Hovland on the 9th, alongside the accepted resignation of Republican member Christy McCormick. With Republican Donald Palmer having departed earlier this year, all four commission seats are currently vacant. The White House stated the president reserves the right to remove personnel not fully committed to election security and ensuring every legal vote is counted, though no specific reason for the removals was provided. Media reports note the commission previously rejected a Trump executive order requiring proof of U.S. citizenship on voter registration forms.
