Corey Lewandowski "fired a U.S. Coast Guard pilot after [Kristi] Noem's blanket was left behind on a plane" โ€” a decision that was reversed when they realized they needed someone to take them home.

NEW: ProPublica and @texastribune.org found that DHS rushed a revamped tool to check votersโ€™ citizenship into use while it was still adding data.

As a result, the tool has made persistent mistakes, particularly for citizens born outside the U.S.
โ€œNot Ready for Prime Time.โ€ A Federal Tool to Check Voter Citizenship Keeps Making Mistakes.
The Department of Homeland Security pushed out the revamped tool while it was still adding data. That led to widespread misidentification, particularly for citizens born outside the U.S.
