Joy Reid: H.R. 1 Expands Voting By ‘Taking The Burden Off You’ | The ReidOut | MSNBC

    1. Greetings from your southern neighbor! Exactly, it can be easy, but then that would mean actually working for the voters…some officials just find that a bit tedious, I guess.

    2. @Damien Darko247 you would also have to leave elections up to the federal government not up to the individual states to run.

    3. @Red 8Ball An interesting point… With our system of Federalism, the issue of States’ rights would certainly be the crux of a rather heated debate. A worthy topic of discussion, I’d say.

    1. Well…. that AND the Warnock and Osshoff wins. AND because Stacy Abrams has scared the living-daylights outta them.

    2. More like fear…the fear of recent events doing worse political damage than Watergate, and leaving the party obliterated for a generation. They fear an unstoppable liberal agenda that would radically change the wealth and power distribution in our Country. Essentially… “disturbing the natural order of things…”

    3. @Damien Darko247 There is no natural order. They want it back to Antebellum times when they were “supreme” it’ll never happen. This country is meant to be a free for all and they’re angry because that would even the playing field and they would begin to see “minorites” out do them take their women live in their neighborhoods and they just can’t stand it. But it’s what the filth deserve.

  1. Lindsey just shows how
    “Worthless”
    he is as an Honest agent of the people State or Nation
    Day after Month after Year After Decade.

    1. The same Lady Lindsey who said George Floyd was still resisting arrest by dying of a choke hold.

  2. Trump and his party told us themselves:

    “If you let more people to vote, the Republicans will never win an election again.” – Donald J. Trump.

  3. The Democrats in the Senate should use aggressive tactics to pass H.R1, give joe Manchin anything he wants, what ever Georgia Brian Kemp signed will be useless if Congress pass H.R 1

    1. They got Kentucky fighting the governor all the way mitch wont be back again hes done to many bad things this time

  4. As a Canadian supporter of democracy , I will boycott any supporting companies of the Georgia suppression bill .

  5. To the gop, You do realize this is your undoing , as legitimate party , and I for one will be glad when you are gone .

  6. It’s almost as if the harder republicans fight against something, the more in line it is with Democracy. 🤔🙄

    1. Very odd coincidence, I’d say… You’d think that their ideas about trickle down economics and protecting corporate interests weren’t popular with a majority of voters or something… 😉

  7. I’m just wondering when is the media going to call them Confederates what they are.
    A gang…

  8. Yes, because the devil himself wants to make sure everyone can easily vote in a secure system…and not to have them faint from dehydration or be forced to get out of line to get a beverage…or let the state overturn the vote if too many people vote the ‘wrong way…’ got it. 😉

  9. I’ve noticed the “everyone thinks you’re racist” thing is the republicans’ main fake victimhood narrative.

  10. There changing laws in every state where republicans can be in charge or take over at polls releave the person where they have control

  11. There’s nothing more corrupt, more treasonous, or less patriotic than passing legislation that makes it harder to vote, or enables state legislatures to overturn the outcome of their own elections. What then is the point of even holding an election if you’re going to overturn it whenever the outcome isn’t in your party’s favor? This is how authoritarian regimes are installed and locked in.

  12. Its just being fair for all races to vote, why would the republicans call it a power grab? Unless the republicans are up to no good

  13. Back then, the Confederacy had to hope to get the president they wanted.

    Now they’re rigging the system.
