He has an appropriate name. Everything cycles - including "McCarthyism" . The once 1st amendment free speech party has now being formed into a fascist, monolithic cult. a vociferous campaign against alleged communists in the US government and other institutions carried out under Senator Joseph McCarthy in the period 1950–54. Many of the accused were blacklisted or lost their jobs, although most did not in fact belong to the Communist Party. a campaign or practice that endorses the use of unfair allegations and investigations. "he practiced McCarthyism long before there was a McCarthy" 2 Link to comment
knapplc Posted July 1, 2021 Author Share Posted July 1, 2021 Stripping away voting rights is among the most un-American things those in power can do. We need to increase the right of citizens to vote, not narrow it. 1 Link to comment

How about making voting easier not harder since there has been no proof of a significant level of voter fraud and if your party gets it's hat handed to it, go back to the drawing board and come up with policies that people support? Nah, better to target the times and methods of people who choose to vote differently than you. 3 1 Link to comment

I only know of one BLM (or maybe he was Antifa) dude that was there. He took a bunch of video.I watched it. Claimed he was just there to document, but ultimately got arrested and charged for entering like everyone else. Link to comment

Sounds as if you will like the Georgia bill then. Maybe you can work on Delaware and have them get with the program. 2 Link to comment

We need to increase the right of citizens to vote, not narrow it. I read about the decision. This is an overstatement. What part do you have issue with? I read on CNN (so the left wing media), that they upheld two provisions. 1) Election Day ballots need to be cast in the correct precinct. 2) delivery of someone else’s ballot had to be done by a caregiver, the post office, or an election official. They could make #2 more broad, but it’s not like they said Hispanics can’t vote. 2 1 Link to comment
