Biden insist that more Bills are needed to stop voter suppression in GOP-run states, and called for an end of the Filibuster in the Senate ahead of voting on two Federal Voting Rights Bills.

Quote:
“So, I ask every elected official in America: How do you want to be remembered?” Biden said. “At consequential moments in history, they present a choice: Do you want to be on the side of Dr. King or George Wallace? Do you want to be on the side of John Lewis or Bull Connor? Do you want to be on the side of Abraham Lincoln or Jefferson Davis?”
Only problem with Biden's example of whose side NOT to be on - is that they are ALL Democrats. That's right: George Wallace, Bull Connor and Jefferson Davis were all Democrats.... and Abraham Lincoln was a Republican.

"Biden insist that more Bills are needed to stop voter suppression in GOP-run states"

However, voter supressions is just find in DEMOCRAT-RUN states...like Biden's home state of Delaware!

Yes, Delaware has some of the most restrictive voter laws in the USA. Other Blue states are also very restrictive:

I honestly think the Democrats just want to get rid of any checks and balances and let anyone vote..citizen or not.
And they will get the votes with all their promises of "free stuff" for everyone and how the rich will pay for it.
And that is their agenda to become a one party nation.

We have "bread and circuses" going on in America which is eerily similar to the waning days of the Roman Empire.

Biden. No, he's not the brightest guy in the room. But if you remember, Trump said during the revolutionary war, troops were taking over the airports. Both are waaay past their prime in cognitive thinking. There is a minimum age of 35 to be president, there should be a maximum age of 55.

Of course it is. They use the term "voting rights" to set up a positive narrative and set up a narrative that they are aligned with the cause of civil rights, and set up a narrative that somehow voting rights are still lacking in the tune of the past like with women or people of color. Are there any current Crow laws that prevent a woman or a black American from voting ? NO other than maybe being a felon. Yet they are trying to say voter supression is rampant

But in fact it is a vote manipulation bill that will allow them to seize control of elections.

*Ban state photo voter ID laws, including prohibiting any ID for absentee ballots or the signature of a witness, making it impossible to verify the authenticity of the vote

*Make it easy to commit fraud and promote chaos at the polls by requiring states to implement same-day voter registration, giving election officials no time to verify the accuracy of the registration and the eligibility of the voter or to anticipate the number of ballots and election workers needed at polling places

*Degrade the accuracy of voter registration lists by severely restricting the ability of states to verify the eligibility and qualifications of voters and removing ineligible voters

*Require states to allow online voter registration not tied to an existing state record on an individual, such as a driver’s license, which would open up registration systems to massive voter registration fraud by cyber criminals

*Require states to automatically register individuals to vote from state and federal databases, such as state Departments of Motor Vehicles, which would result in the registration of ineligible voters, including aliens, and cause multiple registrations of the same individuals (the sponsors know this, which is why they’ve put in an immunity-from-prosecution provision for aliens who get registered);

*Give unaccountable and unelected bureaucrats at the U.S. Department of Justice veto authority over most election changes made by state legislatures – an invasion of state sovereignty that violates federalism and overrides the decisions of the voters and their elected state representatives to determine the election rules for their state;

*Require states to restore the ability of felons to vote the moment they exit prison, voiding state requirements that criminals first complete all the requirements of their sentence such as parole, probation and restitution payments to their victims

*Provide a public funding program for congressional candidates, forcing taxpayers to support candidates they would never vote for or send campaign contributions to

*Force states to provide drop boxes for absentee ballots without requiring any security protocols, as well as force states to allow voter trafficking, i.e., letting paid political operatives, candidates, campaign staffers and others with a stake in the outcome of the election to pick up and handle absentee ballots; and

*Implement a whole series of restrictions and changes to federal campaign laws that would limit political speech and turn the Federal Election Commission into a partisan law enforcement agency


Imagine same day voter registration with no ID required, so a democrat is trailing two points and walla same say registration magically brings the candidate two points ahead......

The democrats are trying to pull some banana republic leftist Venezuelan type BS.

Well DSA is taking over the Dem party and DSA is aligned with Venezuela and Cuba.
They are not the European type of socialists that many on the left here in the US strive to be like.

Sucks when your own Party has a terrible racist history such as the Democrats do.
Jim Crow, slavery, KKK, not supporting Civil Rights Acts, segregation......

This made me LOL. An inaccurate statement from President Trump about the Revolutionary War is a lot different from the unintelligible nonsense we hear from Joe Biden whenever his handlers put him up in front of cameras with his teleprompter.
