US Attorney General Merrick Garland delivered remarks on ‘Bloody Sunday’ at Tabernacle Baptist Church in Selma, Alabama.
Garland told the black churchgoers that voter ID requirements are “discriminatory” and that he’s fighting to stop oppressive laws.
“The right to vote is the cornerstone of our democracy, the right from which all others flow. It is a right that members of this community bled for,” Garland said to the churchgoers.
Garland insisted the “right to vote is still under attack.”
“And that is why the Justice Department is fighting back,” he said. “That is why, one of the first things I did as Attorney General was to double the number of lawyers in the Voting Section of the Civil Rights Division. ”
Garland said voter ID requirements and restrictions of ballot ‘drop boxes’ are “discriminatory, burdensome and unnecessary.”
“That is why we are challenging efforts by states and jurisdictions to implement discriminatory, burdensome, and unnecessary restrictions on access to the ballot, including those related to mail-in voting, the use of drop boxes, and voter ID requirements,” Garland said.

Merrick Garland:
Name 5 legally registered American citizens who in the last ten years were denied the right to vote via ID requirements and Drop Box restrictions.
Little jerk.
Voting requirements and restrictions are SUPPOSED TO BE DISCRIMINATORY. They are there to discriminate between those who are allowed to vote legally, and those who are not. Without them we are not a sovereign nation. Garland has zero idea what justice, or social justice, actually are. He’s an ideological idiot.
Still will not work because Biden won not from votes but from ballots illegally filled out and counted after the polls closed.
I have voted in every election since 1960.
I have ALWAYS presented ID.
People need ID for a wide range of things-—many NOT NEARLY AS IMPORTANT AS VOTING.
IMPEACH GARLAND NOW
this is cuz the millions they have slave run into the country have zero i.d.
Let’s see...
We are a Representative Republic, and by the Constitution, so are the states. People vote for and elect state legislators. Legislators vote for and pass election laws, including voter ID. SCOTUS upholds voter ID laws. The unelected agents of the DoJ, including the AG, try to interfere with and cancel laws passed by the state legislatures.
Who’s the biggest threat to our democracy (representative republic)?
Attach this to Ukraine Funding then:
No person shall be required to provide any greater means of Identification to Any Government employee then that is necessary to Register to Vote or Vote in an election.
Setting the stage for massive voter fraud. Democracy is absolutely hanging in the balance.
Nobody wants to be jerked around. And that's all they've been doing to Americans for four insane years. It's only those indoctrinated so deeply that they ignore reality, and the hopelessly low-info, who could think they are better off with this senile "President" and his goons in power. And it's only the bought-and-paid-for media's daily, hourly, propaganda that keeps this Titanic of theirs afloat at all.

Yup, you got me there. The fraud wasn’t in the voting booth, but in the counting. Not sure how to get that one solved. 100% transparency with open video monitoring at all times?
Nothing like voting whether you vote or not?
Are there ANY legal citizens who don’t have an ID?
What’s wrong with discriminating against fraud?
He’s telling them to get the band back together for this year on Nov.5 to run the same gig.
We are being invaded, and foreign governments help rig the 2020 election. That should have consequences for people like Garland, but I decline to state what they should be.
FAR WORSE!
Boy, I wish the Russians would keep their word...
