Trump mobilizes ministers for midterms

The Atlantic magazine has revealed the existence of a secret points system within the White House used to rally support among government officials for the Republican Party's campaigns ahead of the midterm elections in November. The system relies on tracking and assessing the visits of cabinet members to swing states that are fiercely contested for seats in both the House and Senate, awarding points for each visit and directing ministers toward the most influential areas. The White House encourages officials to focus on local media outlets and penalizes those who neglect field engagement or choose less strategic targets, all in an effort to boost the Republican Party's chances and secure as many seats as possible. This system, which raises legal and ethical concerns regarding the exploitation of government positions for electoral propaganda—particularly given its emphasis on the most sensitive and competitive states—has sparked controversy, especially considering laws like the Hatch Act that prohibit such activities.
