    1. Remember when the Fake News kept play Trump saying “There were good people on both sides…”, But then they cut it off and didnt play the rest of his statement?

    2. @Stephen Clements O love how angry and triggered you are that you have to mention Trump 🤣. So glad I am not you. LOL

  1. We are in the third decade of the 21st century, and we are still talking about VOTING RIGHTS????? Good God Almighty!!!!

  2. Where’s the 15 to 20 reports a day about the January 6th INSURRECTION? Does anyone know why they stopped? Did something change?

    1. The reason why they stopped, temporarily, is because whats going in in Afghanistan is a REAL insurrection. Certainly does make a vivid contrast and context.

    2. A FBI report stated that there was no insurrection — which was already known to every one except those watch MSNBC.

    3. @Tony FBI investigation of cause of Jan 6 Protest has officially ended: “FBI Finds Scant Evidence US Capitol Attack Was Coordinated”. Dems didnt like that because it conflicted with their Fake impeachment narrative.

    1. @River Side – These morons don’t have an answer. They just believe and repeat anything their tv tells them to believe smh

    2. @Ray S Im being serious, if sltthey know something I dont I wouldnlike to hear it. Not being a smartass

    3. @River Side – Same here😂

      Ive literally asked the question above 12 times and have yet to receive an answer

  3. The Civil Right Act of 1964 passed by:

    House: 61% of Democrats
    House: 82% of Republicans

    Senate: 69% of Democrats
    Senate: 80% of Republicans

    1. @maria schultz You need to stop lying on my city bro. Because John F Kennedy never did business with Al Capone and the Chicago outfit. And neither did any Democrats up here either or Republicans. Because both political parties in the state of Illinois was strictly against the Irish mob the Russian mob and the Italian mob. You still have mafias in Chicago right now. But their Japanese Mafia is also known as the Yakuza. And only time you’ll hear about them rigging a political election. Is when they do it in their own country which is Japan. And the United States doesn’t have nothing to do with that. So you need to stop lying on my city and you need to stop lying on John F Kennedy.

    2. @James Smith Exactly I don’t know what these people are talking about. Because this girl Maria Schultz is lying on our political system up here in Illinois. And I don’t appreciate that because the Democrats back in the 1960s never did business with the mafia. So she doesn’t know what she’s talking about.

    1. @Tessmage Tessera And yet what’s going on in Afghanistan is going to have a lot of influence over your life. It’s already cost the democrats the midterm elections.

    2. @Leroy Parker The midterms are like 15 months away. Americans aren’t going to elect fascists just because Trump set up the the Afghanistan debacle. The answer isn’t to elect NAZIS…

  4. Yeah, vote and make your voice heard….of course it won’t matter because this totalitarian regime will just mandate whatever they want anyway.

  5. Federal government control of voting with the Democrats controlling the majority of the Congress senate and white house I don’t think so that doesn’t sound like fair voter rights to me or most Americans

  6. Wow look at these ” BEAUTIES ” BEANS AND RICE DIDNT MISS THEM, WOOO WEEEEEE , A TON OF FUN, WOO WEE BRING YA NOSE CLIP YOU HIT THAT THERE

  7. Woke vote:
    *Vote early, and OFTEN!* 😂
    No ID, preferably by mail. Like NOwhere else on the planet….. 😂
