If there’s a law to allow election cheating Democrats are all on it.

Democrats are determined that there will never be a free and fair election ever again.

But wait until 2022, we'll vote them out of office.../s

The Rats are trying to institute federal control over the elections and institute all the tools to undo election integrity in one shot.

This is their top priority. They will lie right to the public claiming the opposite.

Very dangerous times.

All House Democrats signed onto a sweeping election reform
bill Monday that they claim will expand voting rights and
"clean up corruption" in politics...

Which mens it will erode voting rights and facilitate more
corrupion.

One voting right they continually miss, is if you cheat,
you erode the non-cheater's votes. They have an expected
right for those votes to fully count.

“Death by a thousand cuts.
Amendment it to hell.”

That’s in old America. In DC now, Pelosi and Schumer will simply disallow any amendments with an order from the chair. The courts won’t lift a finger and will say Congress makes it’s own rules.

See also snap impeachment votes with no hearings, see also all spending bills must originate in the House (except Obamacare)

They will just do as they please. There will be no amendments.

Every one of these bastards are traitors. Why are we even bothering pretending they aren’t?

Just remember that the title or name of a bill usually states the opposite of what the bill really does.

“Message to republicans: No mail in voting or we don’t vote. They better get in this fight.”

And do what? All they can do is vote against it and they are guaranteed to come up short. They sold their souls to help Trump get deposed, and now they have no power to do a thing.
Thanks GOP.

Sarbanes shows his true colors of a socialist. Hope Maryland keeps this clown off the streets.

LOL!! “H.R. 1, the For the People Act of 2021”

This is more accurately called...

“H.R. 1, the Fascist Act of 2021”

This is nothing but Fed meddling/overreach into the states sovereignty, and its legislatures constitutional authority in how and in what manner it will conduct elections and appoint electors.

This bill flies in the face of Federalism. The general government has NO authority or say in how states manage their election/access or processes, let alone the constitution gives the general government no authority to impose Federal regulatory election laws upon the states. The Dems are WAY out of line with this usurpation bill. It’s unconstitutional on its face and intent... and any state can give a fat middle finger to it.

As for DC statehood... also unconstitutional & disingenuous BS meant to create a city-state out of the DC outlying district when the same argument to have representation can be achieved by ceding the land and its residences/businesses back to their respective states.

By using retro-cession of the (residence/business area of DC). Congress has NO authority to transform by vote, ANY part of the existing DC into a state... ZERO! The ONLY authority congress has is to vote to cede it back to Maryland if they want representation and those ‘disenfranchised’ will have it presto-change-o with Maryland! Lopping a part of DC off and claiming statehood is complete NONSENSE and its only interest for doing so is political and for power! Typical Dem ploy. They can’t win on argument and ideas at the ballot box, so they rig/game the system to take/steal power.

Both these juvenile and ludicrous jokes of meddling by the Democrats will end up before SCOTUS.

Simple majority - it is not a Constitutional amendment. And it wouldn’t surprise me if they would use reconciliation to get around the filibuster (60 vote) rule.

Another prediction of Rush’s comes true - Democrats are now proceeding to essentially do away with elections, other than just going through the motions.

Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.

We are so screwed by the amoral democrats...

How much more edge to democrats need? The 2002 HAVA Act seemed to work out pretty well for them. Maybe this new plan has some kind of built in amnesty for political criminals and a congress-to-parliament changeover contrivance included.

Arnold Schwarzenegger went along with the democrats when he was governor and the democrats now control everything.
A one party state and we are the worse off for it.
