This is My Shocked Face

A feature, not a bug The folks at the Washington Post did an in depth study of the Republican war on voting, and discovered that overwhelmingly targets minorities and Democrats.

That is because they don’t really care about voter fraud, they want to:

  • Prevent minorities and Democrats from voting.
  • Want to encourage their own folks to commit voter fraud by implying that it is the only way to make the fight fair.

If this is a scoop, it is only because you have CLEARLY not been paying attention:

As Donald Trump falsely claimed the 2020 presidential election was stolen from him, Republicans in some states launched special units to prosecute voter fraud as part of a high-profile and controversial push to stamp out cheating some claimed was rampant.

But the election integrity units established or expanded in six states after Trump’s loss obtained only 47 convictions during a period in which tens of millions of votes were cast, and the units overwhelmingly targeted minorities and Democrats for prosecution, according to a first-of-its-kind analysis by The Washington Post of nearly every prosecution.

The analysis found that 76 percent of defendants whose race or ethnicity could be identified were Black or Hispanic, while White people constituted 24 percent of those prosecuted by the units.

The goal of these people is to suppress the vote, period, full stop.

They are evil and unAmerican.

They should be pursued for the crimes that they are doing, and when they are convicted, we should take their guns.
