Podcasts about election interference

New voting restrictions across the country are threatening to make it harder for millions of Americans to participate in elections. In some states, these barriers have thrown long-registered voters into limbo, as Arizona voter James Wilson learned when he nearly lost his ability to vote because of strict new proof-of-citizenship rules. In this season finale, Democracy Decoded examines how these barriers to voting — along with an administration actively attempting to curtail the freedom to vote and a Supreme Court with voting rights cases on its docket — are reshaping access to the ballot.Host Simone Leeper speaks with election law scholar Rick Hasen and Campaign Legal Center's voting rights expert Danielle Lang to unpack the rise of new barriers to voting, the future of the Voting Rights Act, the dangers of executive overreach, and the policy solutions and reforms needed to secure the freedom to vote in 2026 and beyond.Timestamps:(00:00) — How did one Arizona voter nearly lose his right to vote?(04:35) — Why are federal actions now threatening elections?(06:50) — How do proof-of-citizenship laws disenfranchise voters?(11:48) — What happened inside Arizona's dual-track voting system?(15:32) — Who is most affected by modern voting restrictions?(21:36) — What role has the federal government historically played in protecting voting rights?(23:49) — Why is the SAVE Act so bad for voting rights?(25:16) — What is Campaign Legal Center doing to protect the freedom to vote in Louisiana?(28:38) — What is Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act?(30:06) — What is the Turtle Mountain v.

The past week has felt like history unfolding in real time as the legal battles surrounding Donald Trump reached new levels of intensity. On November 5, the Supreme Court heard arguments in a consolidated case officially captioned Donald J. Trump, President of the United States, et al. versus V.O.S. Selections, Inc., et al. The energy outside the Court that morning was electric—reporters crammed along the steps, protesters mixing with supporters, and everywhere the sense that the stakes were nothing short of monumental for American law and politics.Inside, Solicitor General D. John Sauer represented the federal government, with the private parties represented by Neal Katyal, and state officials argued by Oregon's Solicitor General Benjamin Gutman. The arguments themselves were brisk and sharp, with justices pressing all sides on technical legal points—but everyone knew that far more was at issue than the particularities of statutory interpretation or regulatory procedure. The docket has been moving at lightning speed since September when the writ of certiorari was granted and motions to expedite were quickly approved. The records from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit and the Court of International Trade were all submitted electronically, ensuring nothing would delay decision-making heading into the final stretch of the year.Meanwhile, Trump's legal calendar continues to look like a maze of overlapping cases and critical deadlines, according to the tracker maintained by Just Security. The Mar-a-Lago classified documents case, which has already seen Judge Cannon dismiss the superseding indictment on the controversial ground of unlawful appointment and funding of Special Counsel Jack Smith, is now in the hands of the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals. Briefs from both sides keep piling up, with government replies due in mid-November—not a moment for rest if you are in Trump's legal team or the Justice Department.Crucially, the Supreme Court has set aside time in the first week of November for argument on these cases, signaling just how urgent and consequential the Court considers them. This scheduling urgency means that Trump's fate in several high-profile matters could reverberate throughout the nation well before the next round of campaign events truly ramps up.In the background, courtroom drama continues elsewhere—New York and Georgia, among other jurisdictions, stay active with election interference and fraud cases. Trump's attorneys juggle appeals, motions for dismissal based on presidential immunity, and arguments about federal and state powers. Each proceeding brings new headlines and fuels around-the-clock coverage on every major network.As the Supreme Court weighs its decision and other appellate courts deliberate, the only certainty is more twists and more turbulence ahead. The legal world and political observers alike are bracing for impact as we wait for rulings that could define not just Donald Trump's future, but the shape of presidential powers and accountability for years to come.Thanks for tuning in.

Under our Constitution, the federal government and the states have distinct powers — especially when it comes to elections. But the Trump administration has repeatedly tried to interfere with how states run elections, pushing unlawful policies that undermine faith in safe, secure and accurate elections.Host Simone Leeper sits down with Catie Kelley, Senior Director of Policy and Strategic Partnerships at Campaign Legal Center, and Jonathan Diaz, CLC's Director of Voting Advocacy and Partnerships, to examine how the Trump administration has attempted to federalize elections, impose unconstitutional voter restrictions and silence Americans.They unpack CLC's major court victory against the administration's unlawful election executive order; explain how new proof-of-citizenship requirements could disenfranchise millions of voters; and discuss lawsuits defending states' rights and voters' privacy against federal overreach. They also explore broader threats—from troubling legislation and to presidential attacks on mail-in voting—and what Campaign Legal Center is doing to preserve checks and balances, protect election integrity and defend every American's freedom to vote.Timestamps:(00:00) — What does “federalism” mean, and why is it under attack?(02:50) — How is the Trump administration overstepping its authority on elections?(06:44) — What lawsuits has CLC filed to stop the president's election overreach?(07:58) — Why are proof-of-citizenship rules so dangerous for voters?(11:28) — How are military families impacted by new voting restrictions?(14:50) — Why is the DOJ demanding states' voter data—and why is it alarming?(17:56) — How are states pushing back to defend their power and voters' privacy?(19:10) — What is the SAVE Act, and how could it silence millions of voters?(25:16) — Why is mail-in voting under attack again?(28:41) — How does misinformation from the president erode trust in elections?(30:51) — What lessons from 2024 should shape the 2026 midterms?(34:04) — What can states do to strengthen confidence in elections?(36:24) — What should voters remember heading into 2026 and beyond?(40:17) — How can Americans hold the line for democracy?Host and Guests:Simone Leeper litigates a wide range of redistricting-related cases at Campaign Legal Center, challenging gerrymanders and advocating for election systems that guarantee all voters an equal opportunity to influence our democracy.

n this explosive interview, Stephanie Weidle sits down withDr. Jeyanthi Kunadhasan, an anesthetist and perioperative physician who refused the COVID jab in Australia and paid the ultimate professional price for standing by her conscience.Together, they walk through Pfizer's own documents — the ones the pharmaceutical company wanted sealed for 75 years — and reveal a shocking trail of deception, missing deaths, and political manipulation tied to the pandemic and the 2020 U.S. election.After Pfizer fought to hide its COVID-19 trial data, a small group of independent researchers decided to dig for the truth. Among them was Dr. Kunadhasan, who lost her job after refusing to take the shot — and who discovered the dark reality behind the pharmaceutical and political machinery driving the pandemic narrative.Read more:https://pandemicinvestigationproject.com/

Barely a day seems to pass without Donald Trump's name in the headlines, and the courtroom drama over the past week has been nothing short of remarkable. Right now, as we find ourselves on October 31, 2025, the former president is juggling a trio of active criminal cases, not to mention the aftermath of his high-profile conviction in New York back in May 2024. The Brennan Center for Justice reports that these are not just legal battles; they've become central to the country's political discourse and national mood.Let's get right to it—the New York criminal case, where Trump was convicted of multiple felonies related to falsification of business records, continues to cast a long shadow. To this day, his legal team is deep into appeals, but that conviction sent shockwaves through both legal circles and politics, signaling that no one, not even a former president, sits above the law.But that's only the tip of the iceberg. Down in Georgia, Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis is still aggressively pursuing Trump and his associates for their alleged roles in attempting to overturn the state's 2020 election results. Courtrooms have become stages for heated arguments over evidence, witness lists, and the ever-present question of whether a trial might bleed dangerously close to the next presidential election cycle.Meanwhile, the federal courts are staying busy. Special Counsel Jack Smith's prosecution concerning Trump's role in the January 6 Capitol events is ongoing. Testimony from former aides and Capitol security experts dominated recent proceedings. Legal analysts point out that the intersection of free speech, presidential power, and criminal responsibility is right at the heart of these hearings.Lawfare Media has been closely tracking nearly 300 active cases that challenge Trump administration actions, from immigration enforcement in sanctuary cities—such as the recent denied injunction in City of Chelsea v. President Trump, decided earlier this month—to ongoing litigation over executive orders, national security issues, and challenges brought all the way to the Supreme Court. Some cases, like those invoking the Alien Enemies Act, are still pending, with states and civil rights groups arguing over the scope of presidential authority during perceived national emergencies.Amid all this legal maneuvering, names like Judge Tanya Chutkan in Washington D.C., defense attorney Todd Blanche, and prosecutors from both state and federal offices are appearing on airwaves and in headlines almost daily. Court dates, delays, and rulings all slip easily from legal language into everyday conversation, as Americans wait to see whether any outcome will deliver closure or only add to the division.For many, the thicket of cases—spanning the Supreme Court dockets, federal courts, and local criminal trials—highlights a fundamental moment for the country's legal system. Are the courts delivering justice, or is politics warping the process? That's the debate echoing across living rooms, campaign rallies, and, of course, social media.Thanks for tuning in to this week's whirlwind through the Trump trials.

It's been a whirlwind few days in the world of U.S. courtrooms, and Donald Trump remains firmly at the center of the storm. Nearly every headline I've caught since the middle of the week has opened with the latest twist in Trump's sprawling legal calendar—a saga stretching from New York streets to Washington, D.C. federal offices, and onward to Florida's district courts. You'd think by now folks might slow down, but the cases keep coming at a dizzying pace.Right now, listeners, several major cases demand Trump's attention. The stakes are extraordinary—not just for him personally, but for the American judicial system. According to Just Security, Trump's legal schedule for fall and winter has been crowded with deadlines and appeals. On October 24, Trump is due to submit a request to dismiss one of the most talked-about cases: the D.C. Election Interference prosecution. His lawyers argue the indictment should be tossed based on the Appointments and Appropriations Clauses, naming Special Counsel Jack Smith's appointment and funding as suspect. The following day, October 25, Trump's legal team faces the federal government in Florida, defending Judge Aileen Cannon's earlier move to dismiss the classified documents case over similar concerns about Special Counsel Smith's legitimacy.That's not all. Late last month Trump tried—unsuccessfully—to move his Manhattan criminal case, led by District Attorney Alvin Bragg, to federal court. Judge Alvin Hellerstein wasn't convinced, rejecting Trump's request and delivering a setback. The push for federal jurisdiction continues, with Trump appealing to the Second Circuit, his opening brief now due October 14.Meanwhile, in Georgia, Trump is linked to broader appeals as his co-defendants challenge the fairness of Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis's role. All oral arguments are scheduled together, making Atlanta another courtroom buzzing with activity.But possibly the most significant legal moment this summer came in Washington, D.C. The Supreme Court vacated the D.C. Circuit's ruling that had previously denied Trump's presidential immunity argument. This sent the whole affair back to Judge Tanya Chutkan in the district court, where all pretrial deadlines are on pause until late October, a move that will shape the next pivotal months of proceedings.Experts like Max Yoeli at Chatham House warn that these intertwining court battles could be a prelude to a constitutional crisis if the judiciary cannot effectively check Trump's actions—especially with appeals mounting and deadlines extended whenever a new wrinkle appears.Thank you for tuning in.

Donald Trump's court battles have dominated national headlines this past week, unfolding across multiple jurisdictions and touching on core questions about presidential power and American democracy. I'm here to take you through the whirlwind developments, connecting the dots so you get the full picture.Let's begin with the most high-profile outcome: the historic New York case, The People for the State of New York v. Donald J. Trump. After a months-long trial, Donald Trump was found guilty on all 34 counts of falsifying business records in Manhattan. That guilty verdict was delivered back in May of 2024, but what many found surprising was Justice Juan Merchan's sentencing decision in January. Trump faced the possibility of jail time, but ultimately received an unconditional discharge. That means, despite the felony convictions, no jail, fines, or probation—a legal oddity that analysts say was influenced by both the unprecedented nature of the case and its proximity to the 2024 election.Meanwhile, in the Southern District of Florida, things took a sharp turn regarding Trump's handling of classified documents. Originally, the indictment included 32 counts of retaining national defense information and several other obstruction-related charges. However, on July 15, 2024, Judge Aileen Cannon dismissed the indictment altogether, ruling that Special Counsel Jack Smith's appointment was improper. The Department of Justice did try to appeal, but by early 2025, those efforts had quietly ended, leaving Trump unscathed in that federal case.Georgia's Fulton County has also played host to legal drama. Trump and 18 others were indicted, accused of conspiring to overturn the 2020 election results. While this sprawling RICO case has moved slowly, it remains one of the most closely watched state efforts.On a separate legal front, there's been fresh turmoil over Trump's executive actions. This week, Chief Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly of the U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C. ordered the Trump administration to answer tough questions about how they implemented Executive Order 14248, which mandates proof of citizenship for federal voting, restricts mail-in ballots, and ties election funding to compliance. Plaintiffs, which include the Democratic Party and civil rights groups, argue the order threatens to disenfranchise millions. The administration now faces a tight August 15 deadline to provide answers. This is happening as Trump's team also appeals a court order that blocked key provisions of the same order, keeping uncertainty swirling around future voting rules.And it's not just voting rights on the docket. The Trump administration's new policy authorizing Immigration and Customs Enforcement to arrest people attending mandatory court hearings has triggered an urgent lawsuit. Groups like the New York Civil Liberties Union and the ACLU are fighting this policy, calling it an unprecedented assault on due process and immigrant rights.It's a dizzying array of legal fights involving not just Donald Trump himself but the very machinery of his administration—the outcomes of which could fundamentally reshape the legal landscape and the 2026 election season.Thank you for tuning in to this court update.

In Donald Trump's first term, he was furious that people were investigating his connections to Russia—“Russia, Russia, Russia,” he complained. Now, as Trump fulfills a campaign promise of retribution, his Administration has put the Russia “hoax” back into the headlines. They claim to have opened investigations into the former F.B.I. director James Comey and the former C.I.A. director John Brennan. A career C.IA. officer, Brennan served nearly thirty years, holding senior positions under Presidents Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, and Barack Obama; his tenure included the controversial drone program, as well as the infamous Steele dossier on Trump during the 2016 election. David Remnick speaks with Brennan about why Trump officials are re-investigating old business. Are there real issues, or is this an attempt to direct the news cycle away from Jeffrey Epstein? “I've seen reports in the press that I'm under investigation,” Brennan points out. “But I've not heard anything from the Department of Justice, or the F.B.I., or the C.I.A., or the Office of Director of National Intelligence. No one has contacted me about anything.”

The Trump administration is trying to discredit the intelligence assessment that concluded Russian President Putin ordered a campaign to interfere in the 2016 election with the intent of helping elect Trump. Contrary to almost all intelligence findings, Trump and his aides allege a conspiracy by the Obama White House. Geoff Bennett discussed more with former CIA analyst Michael Van Landingham.

In this explosive episode of The P.A.S. Report, Professor Nick Giordano exposes how declassified documents confirm the intelligence community manipulated assessments to launch the Russia collusion hoax and sabotage President Trump. From Brennan and Clapper to Comey and Obama, top officials weaponized intelligence and misled the public. Professor Giordano plays a clip from his very first episode in 2019, The Russia Impact, where he accurately warned this was happening in real-time. Now, with the truth laid bare, the media and Democrats scramble to cover their tracks. This episode is a must-listen for anyone serious about accountability, transparency, and the survival of our constitutional republic.

HR1 Obama-Election Interference, Children's Hospital 7-21-25 by John Rush

Late Friday afternoon, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard announced that she would be initiating criminal proceedings related to the long-standing investigation into Russia's alleged interference in the 2016 U.S. presidential election. In a brief but pointed statement to the press, Gabbard emphasized that new evidence had emerged, warranting formal charges against individuals suspected of undermining the integrity of the American democratic process. She stated that the intelligence community had "exhausted all avenues of investigation" and was now prepared to hold accountable those believed to have coordinated or facilitated foreign influence operations during the pivotal election year. Freedom Marketplace: https://freedommarketplace.net The Stack: https://www.toddhuffshow.com/stack-of-stuff Email: todd@toddhuffshow.comPhone: 317.210.2830Follow us on…Instagram: @toddhuffshowFacebook: The Todd Huff ShowTwitter: @toddhuffshowLinkedIn: The Todd Huff ShowTikTok: @toddhuffshowSupport Our Partners:https://www.toddhuffshow.com/partners Links:https://www.mypillow.com/todd Promo Code: TODDhttps://mystore.com/toddhttps://soltea.com - Promo Code TODD for $29.95 off your first orderRed, White, & Brand – Text TODD at 317-210-2830 for a 10% discount.

Did Obama Commit Treason? Hawk Dismantles Tulsi Gabbard's Claim In this podcast episode, Hawk focuses on the latest controversy involving Tulsi Gabbard's declassified report accusing former President Barack Obama of treason during the 2016 election. The report claims that top Obama officials coordinated efforts to sabotage Donald Trump's campaign—an accusation that Hawk thoroughly challenges using facts already established by bipartisan Senate investigations, the Mueller report, and multiple intelligence community assessments.Hawk discusses how the report misrepresents the facts by focusing narrowly on election infrastructure while ignoring Russia's proven influence operations, including the DNC and Podesta email hacks, fake social media campaigns, and other efforts aimed at boosting Trump and damaging Hillary Clinton. Drawing from official records and long-standing investigations, Hawk highlights how Tulsi Gabbard's conclusions collapse under scrutiny and explains why, even if her claims were true, the Supreme Court's ruling on presidential immunity would still shield Obama from prosecution.Throughout the video, Hawk brings a sharp, informed, and often humorous take on current political events, cutting through misinformation with clarity and confidence. If you're looking for a no-nonsense review of what really happened in 2016—and what didn't—this is the episode to watch.

Steve Gruber discusses news and headlines

In a fiery discussion, the hosts react to the unprecedented criminal referrals of former CIA Director John Brennan and former FBI Director James Comey. They detail how Brennan and Comey allegedly knew the Steele dossier was fabricated by Hillary Clinton's campaign but still used it to justify spying on Donald Trump's team and to mislead Congress and the public. Drawing parallels to Soviet-era intelligence corruption, the hosts condemn what they call felony-level perjury and illegal surveillance, contrasting the lack of accountability for powerful officials with everyday Americans punished for minor offenses. As media narratives prepare to paint Trump as a dictator for pursuing justice, the conversation underscores why many see this as a long-overdue reckoning.

Was Christopher Wray complicit in China’s meddling in the 2020 election? The FBI’s abnormal indifference to a foreign election threat. There don’t seem to be any good answers on why the FBI under Joe Biden and Christopher Wray actively censored you while they paid no mind to credible foreign threats. A short and completely unrelated history of the Stasi and how secret state police can cripple a nation.

Trump is nearly seven months into his presidency, and massive amounts of election fraud continue to be uncovered. A declassified FBI report has revealed that U.S. intelligence communities were fully aware that China was interfering in our elections, yet they did nothing about it. But that's not all—while election fraud is being exposed at the federal level, patriots across the nation are still working hard to uncover the web of deception in their own counties. Today, we'll have a roundtable discussion on what exactly is happening in our elections. All this and more on today's Untamed!  

This episode dives into two urgent and breaking stories: record-breaking Fourth of July travel disruptions and a stunning whistleblower-driven report alleging the FBI covered up Chinese election interference to help elect Joe Biden in 2020. Tara outlines how whistleblower documents released by Senator Chuck Grassley reveal the FBI knowingly destroyed evidence linking the Chinese Communist Party to widespread absentee ballot fraud using fake driver's licenses generated from stolen TikTok data. The revelations include claims of perjury by FBI Director Christopher Wray, retaliations against whistleblowers, and the alleged laundering of Chinese money into U.S. campaigns—felonies that Tara says reveal collusion between the FBI, Democrats, and foreign actors. From the Russia hoax to COVID cover narratives, the podcast connects the dots in what could become the largest political scandal in U.S. history. Listeners are warned: the implications are vast—and could change everything.

In this powerful back-to-back episode, Tara and Lee tackle two seismic stories reshaping America's political landscape. First, they detail Donald Trump's unprecedented move forcing the University of Pennsylvania to reverse course on transgender athletes, restoring titles, records, and dignity to female swimmers like Riley Gaines—an extraordinary rollback in the culture wars never seen before. Then, they pivot to jaw-dropping revelations from whistleblower documents exposing the FBI's deliberate cover-up of Chinese election interference designed to help Joe Biden win in 2020. Tara lays out the evidence: destruction of critical records, felony-level perjury by FBI Director Christopher Wray, and a coordinated effort to censor Americans discussing election fraud. From record July Fourth travel chaos to corruption at the highest levels, this episode connects the dots between cultural battles and deep state deception—revealing how free speech and citizen scrutiny are finally shining a light on truths long suppressed.

But the alternative to migration is that employers can grow their employees' productivity via investments in technology, Powell responded. “A big increase in productivity … would mean we don't need as many [migrant] workers,” he said. But growth by productivity takes time and effort, Powell warned: With productivity-enhancing things, they typically take longer to be implemented, and then it takes a while for the gains to be shown. I think in the case of artificial intelligence, those gains are coming, but they may take longer or be less in the beginning than expected.

Key actions include: Chinese Tires (2009–2012): Imposed a three-year safeguard tariff under Section 421 of the Trade Act on car and light truck tires from China, starting at 35% (plus 4% existing duty), reducing to 30% and 25% in subsequent years.

Sen. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., on Wednesday said there needs to be accountability after a report was released raising concerns that China had mass-produced fake U.S. driver's licenses to carry out a scheme to hijack the 2020 election with fake mail-in ballots for Democrat Joe Biden. "This is something that has lingered out there from the 2020 elections, and the fact that the Border Patrol actually found some of this and tried to have it investigated, and the FBI said, 'don't touch it,'" Blackburn said.

In this explosive two-part broadcast, Tara Servatius unpacks staggering revelations about the FBI's alleged cover-up of a massive Chinese plot to rig the 2020 election with fake driver's licenses and ballots—evidence that was buried, censored, and denied. She connects the dots between deep state censorship, Hunter Biden's foreign cash flow, and the push to protect Joe Biden at any cost. Then, she shifts focus to the southern border, exposing what she calls “one of the biggest lies ever told”—that a secure border required amnesty. With the latest record-low border crossings under Trump, Tara reveals the truth behind years of deliberate chaos.

Tara Servatius breaks down a jaw-dropping whistleblower report finally emerging after years of stonewalling by the FBI and the Biden administration. According to intelligence now delivered to Congress by Kash Patel, the FBI buried—and ultimately destroyed—evidence of a Chinese plot to interfere in the 2020 U.S. election. Using TikTok-scraped personal data, China allegedly mass-produced fake U.S. driver's licenses to commit mail-in ballot fraud favoring Joe Biden. FBI Director Christopher Wray not only failed to act but, as Tara details, the agency ordered agents to delete all traces of the report, a move amounting to obstruction of justice. Nearly 20,000 fake IDs were intercepted en route to battleground states, yet the intel was never followed up. Tara exposes how mass censorship, legal loopholes, and a complicit intelligence community worked in tandem to suppress the biggest election interference story in modern history—and why America may never recover unless there's full accountability.

In this explosive broadcast, Tara Servatius uncovers bombshell allegations that the FBI actively destroyed intelligence reports exposing a Chinese plot to interfere in the 2020 U.S. presidential election. According to whistleblower revelations, fake U.S. driver's licenses were allegedly mass-produced using TikTok-harvested American data to generate fraudulent mail-in ballots benefiting Joe Biden. Tara breaks down how these reports were buried and scrubbed from FBI systems—raising serious questions about corruption and cover-ups inside federal agencies. But that's not all. In a bizarre twist of political theater, Democrat NYC mayoral candidate Brad Lander stages what appears to be a fake arrest—grabbing an ICE agent's arm in a publicity stunt to accuse Trump of dictatorship. Tara exposes how Democrats are manufacturing Gestapo moments to feed media narratives and distract from their own misconduct. From the FBI's perjury to staged outrage on the streets of New York, this episode delivers jaw-dropping insights into America's new political playbook.

L. No. 87-794, § 232(b), 76 Stat. 872, 877 (codified as amended at 19 U.S.C. § 1862(c)(1)(A)). This delegation is conditioned upon an investigation and findings by the Secretary of Commerce, and agreement by the President. See id. Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended, requires that the U.S. Trade Representative (“USTR”) take action, which may include imposing tariffs, where “the rights of the United States under any trade agreement are being denied” or “an act, policy, or practice of a foreign country” is “unjustifiable and burdens or restricts United States commerce.” 19 U.S.C. § 2411(a)(1)(A)–(B). The USTR may impose duties also where the USTR determines that “an act, policy, or practice of a foreign country is unreasonable or discriminatory and burdens or restricts United States commerce.” Id. § 2411(b)(1). This power is conditioned on extensive procedural requirements including an investigation that culminates in an affirmative finding that another country imposed unfair trade barriers under § 2411(a)(1)(A) or (B) or § 2411(b), and a public notice and comment period. See id. § 2414(b).”… [source]  the ruling can be overturned on appeal.

Brussels has reportedly admitted that freeing itself from the dominance of US tech companies is unrealistic, and that "cooperation will remain significant across the technological value chain." EU states remain dependent on US tech companies, and US President Donald Trump's stance on Europe has the bloc fearing for its sovereignty in global technologies, including social media and cloud services. Another concern is linked to the ability of US law enforcement bodies to get access to data processed by Amazon, Microsoft and Google, the paper said. The draft of the strategy also signals that the EU has very few fresh ideas that may help Europe become an important player in the global technology field, the paper added.
