The GQP don't need no stinking votes! First remove or eliminate access to voters. Then after losing place the outcome in question with continued recounting and infusion of confusion.

Imagine what would have happened to future elections if Donny Dotard had managed to stay in office. Scary thoughts.

Charles Koch funded eviction push while investing in real estate companies
Between 2017 and 2019, Koch’s foundation contributed almost $7.7m to three conservative US groups leading court battle

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/...on-real-estate

More $$$ to contribute to the GQP, off the backs of the desperate.

Distinguished pols of the week: Republicans do not have to be sheep

https://www.washingtonpost.com/opini...have-be-sheep/

Quote:
In upholding their oaths, those who voted for the commission demonstrated that all Republicans have a choice. If they follow the herd, pledge fidelity to their cult leader, open the door for further acts of violence and keep spreading the big lie that the election was stolen, history will be harsh. Members who should know better — including some who have served in the armed forces to defend our democracy (e.g., Reps. Mike Gallagher of Wisconsin, Andrew Clyde of Georgia, Dan Crenshaw of Texas) — will need to justify their conduct to themselves, to those with whom they served and to voters (not to mention their children and grandchildren). Their 35 colleagues put them to shame in demonstrating that their toadyism is a choice; their decision to put partisan comfort over constitutional devotion is not pre-ordained.

For putting country above party and truth above lies, we can say well done to the 35 House Republican patriots.

That reminds me of when Mitch McConnell said Blacks should be satisfied because the country elected an African-American president.

Mitch McConnell hits a new low, again. Yet Joe Manchin remains unmoved.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/opini...nchin-unmoved/

With "friends" like Manchin, Moscow Mitch continues his evil plan to destroy democracy.

Only the most rabid ones would.
