President Trump lauds LAs top federal prosecutor over election fraud push: Fantastic job

President Trump is doubling down on his fight over California’s elections, blasting a federal court for rejecting his administration’s effort to set aside roughly 20,000 ballots tied to suspected noncitizens while showering Los Angeles’ top federal prosecutor with praise.Trump weighed in Saturday in a Truth Social post after a series of legal setbacks for the Justice Department, calling First Assistant US Attorney Bill Essayli one of the best prosecutors ever and accusing the court of rejecting an effort to fix election fraud.The president also vowed to continue his administration’s fight over election integrity in California, where the battle over disputed voter registrations has become a flashpoint just days before the Nov.3 midterm elections.In a lengthy social media post, Trump took aim at the judicial ruling and the Senate confirmation process that has complicated Essayli’s position, referring to the so-called blue-slip process as a “SCAM.”Trump praised Essayli as “one of the best, EVER!” and claimed the prosecutor had uncovered a massive number of illegal votes, potentially reaching into the millions.“So, in Los Angeles, our Acting U.S.
