Former President Barack Obama used his eulogy at the funeral of Rep. John Lewis (D-GA) to call for an end to the Senate filibuster to pass Democrats’ new legislation on voting reform.
Obama said that Republicans had imitated Jim Crow-era restrictions on voting rights, which Lewis marched against, by passing state voter ID laws and other measures that conservatives argue prevent voter fraud.
“And if all this takes is ending the filibuster, another Jim Crow relic, in order to secure the God-given rights of every American, then that’s what we should do.”
Without mentioning Donald Trump by name, Obama likened the president to segregationist Democrat Gov. George Wallace of Alabama, and compared federal law enforcement officers to the police who beat civil rights marchers across the South.
He accused the government of “sending agents to use tear gas and batons against peaceful demonstrators.”

Obama talking about people’s God-given rights includes things like multiple votes in one election, dead folks voting, stuff like that. That man needs to be gone & “the hole” in Gitmo is probably not quite far enough away.
He is an evil POS that’s what he is and that is all he is.
He makes me sick and furious at the same time. I saw clips of him at the funeral on Tuckers show and I had to turn the volume down I just can not listen to him.
