📰 THE FULL STORY
The New York Times reported that the Trump administration asked the Supreme Court to allow a voter-screening tool.
⬅️ HOW THE LEFT COVERS IT
The New York Times foregrounds the administration's request that the Supreme Court permit a voter-screening tool, framing the court as the venue where this DHS citizenship effort will be decided. Its coverage centers the administration as the party seeking approval. (New York Times)
⬛ HOW THE CENTER COVERS IT

➡️ HOW THE RIGHT COVERS IT
They do not center the administration's separate Supreme Court request over the voter-screening tool. (Fox News, Washington Examiner)
⚠️ WHAT THEY AREN'T TELLING YOU
The outlets covering the Missouri map rejection do not connect it to the voter-screening request, and the outlet covering the voter-screening request does not report the Missouri outcome.
🌐 WHAT THE INTERNET IS SAYING
On X, @BoSnerdley flagged the Trump administration's request for the Supreme Court to permit its voter-screening tool.
@NBCNews on X and @nbcnews on TikTok both noted the administration asked the justices to temporarily let the Postal Service exert control over mail-in voting for the midterms. That request came just two days after a federal judge blocked the USPS.
@BoSnerdley separately pointed to another appeal seeking mail ballot restrictions.
On X, @marceelias framed the DOJ's Tuesday request as an effort to use a flawed federal immigration database to start voter registration purges.
