  2. Oh great! I’m glad that’s he’s going to require voter ID’s to make sure that all votes are LEGAL and that there aren’t any Russian illegals voting! Well.. it did say “protect voting rights,” correct? So this must be his plan!

    1. @DarrinCrose It’s not about being triggered. Everyone agreed this was a secure election- until trump demanded his stooges to lie for him. We all know how hard trump tried to cheat/overturn the election. I listened to the one hour (?!) phone call trump made to Raffensberger after the election. It was like fiction, only it wasn’t fiction. Raffensberger had the presence of mind to record the conversation.

      With GOP’s new voting laws he had won, because the importance of the more neutral secretary of state is diminished and the highly partisan lawmakers have a bigger role now.

    2. @Constituent A Born and raised baby. That’s why freedom is so important to me. I don’t sit from another country and get my information through communist propaganda. I’m seeing it with my own eyes.

    3. The Democrats are not communists at all. It’s the Democrats who fight every day to protect our freedoms.

    4. @James Smith Ok Russian bot. (Only assuming that because that’s what the Democrats call everyone who disagree with them…) But seriously though, they are communist. They support antifa and BLM, which are both known to be communist organizations. They teach racial divide, which is a modern communist “class-warfare” tactic. They are blatant socialists, which of course socialism is the nice way of calling the intermediate stage between capitalism and communism. It’s hard for communism to ever come out of capitalism, so Marxists first convince the people of socialism before pushing for communism. You need to do your research and learn before making bold statements.

    1. I saw your comment: Voting is a suggestion box for slaves.
      That was so 1984!
      “War is peace.
      Freedom is slavery.
      Ignorance is strength.”

    1. The Nazi News is getting desperate! Fair voting laws that stop Dem cheating is very scary! To the criminals! That see “their cheating coming to an end! “

  3. The way Brian described AG Merrick Garland was almost identical to the way Bob Mueller had been described. How did that one turn out for everyone?

    1. Mueller turned out to be a frail looking old man that can’t even choose a firm stance on an important issue. One of the biggest cop out in the history of the fight for modern democracy. Because it wasn’t about 45. That despot wannabe was just the test case. It was about holding to account one that would threaten the democratic process. And America failed. Which is why it is the way it is now.

  4. The irony of so called oath keepers calling others lawless thugs..projection, projection, projection…

  5. The “profound” philosophy of the Left: “IN THIS HOUSE, WE BELIEVE: WE HEAR THROUGH OUR EARS; BLACK LIVES MATTER; WE EAT FOOD; GENDER NON-BINARIES ALSO BREATHE THROUGH THEIR NOSES; WOMEN’S RIGHTS ARE HUMAN RIGHTS; WOMEN ARE SENTIENT BEINGS; THE SKY IS BLUE; THE SUN RISES IN THE MORNING; NO HUMAN IS ILLEGAL; INFANTS ARE HELPLESS; ELEPHANTS HAVE FOUR LEGS; MEN, IDENTIFYING AS WOMEN, ARE WOMEN; TWO PLUS TWO EQUALS FOUR; ALL GENDERS URINATE; SCIENCE IS REAL; HUMAN LIFE IS TEMPORARY; LOVE IS LOVE; WE DEFECATE; KINDNESS IS EVERYTHING.” What are your pronouns?

  6. So next time let us say i’ll bring with me 10 other people from Europe for just a vacation. We will be able to vote on the next US election? 😀
    Cool 😀
