She's in the way of Dear Leader's voter suppression.

100,000 names need to be erroneously scrubbed for the crime of being "non-residents" living in blue districts.

Under the guise of election integrity, they're going to throw out even more ballots than in 2024.

By the end of 2025, everyone in swing states should check on their registration status. These crumbs act during off-years.

Or at least it's the distraction that works on Fox viewers, who don't know anything about his memecoin bribes.

There have been plenty of jokes about Republicans forgetting who was president in 2020, but the party’s habit of forgetting about the Jan. 6 attack is far less funny.

Speaker Mike Johnson, I’m looking in your direction. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

House Speaker Mike Johnson insisted Tuesday that he would not swear in Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva until Democrats relent and end the government shutdown.

Grijalva, speaking alongside Democrats, including Sen. Mark Kelly, on Wednesday, said the delay “is not procedural. It’s intentional.” 🧵

As as example, in 2020 the erroneously scrubbed in WI were returned to voter rolls in time. Not in 2024. The GOP-held state legislature denied auditors list access.

If Dems lose the midterms, this is how.

Here's one of the posts that State listed as foreigners whose visa they stripped. Ask yourself, how they found this? Unlike the others, it doesn't mention Kirk, nor anything in English.

It likely came from this Facebook post.

www.facebook.com/philippbreit...

„Wenn Faschisten sterben, jammern Demokraten nicht.“
Dieses widerwärtige Zitat des ZDF-Drehbuchautors und Publizisten Mario Sixtus, veröffentlicht nur Stunden nach dem Attentat auf Charlie Kirk, markiert einen moralischen Tiefpunkt.
Wer so spricht, entlarvt sich selbst: nicht als Demokrat, sondern als Zyniker, der das Fundament unserer freiheitlichen Ordnung mit Füßen tritt. Wer den Tod eines politischen Gegners feiert, beweist nicht Haltung, sondern bestätigt, dass er in Wahrheit keinerlei Respekt vor der Demokratie hat – denn Demokratie lebt vom Wort, von der Debatte, vom Streit der Argumente, nicht vom Hass auf Menschenleben.
Ja, Charlie Kirk hat radikale Positionen vertreten, ja, er war streitbar und unbequem. Aber er hat die Debatte gesucht. Und solange Debatte, Rede, Diskurs möglich ist, gibt es einen zivilisierten, legitimen Rahmen. Gewalt, Häme über den Tod und Entmenschlichung gehören nicht dazu.
Darum sage ich es klar: Jeder, der sich über den Tod eines Menschen freut, disqualifiziert sich selbst als Demokrat. Wer vorgibt, gegen Unmenschlichkeit zu kämpfen, dabei aber selbst unmenschlich handelt, ist ein Heuchler.
Der Fall zeigt erneut, wie tief die Risse in unserer Gesellschaft sind – und wie groß die Gefahr, dass die selbsternannte „moralische Elite“ in Wahrheit jede moralische Orientierung verloren hat.
