Joe Biden's Attorney General, Merrick Garland, has made clear his intention to make America's elections less secure, describing efforts to secure them as "burdensome and unnecessary." Garland made the remarks at the Tabernacle Baptist Church in Selma, Alabama, during a commemoration of 'Bloody Sunday' when civil rights protesters were brutally attacked by police.
He also accused federal courts of weakening the 1965 Voting Rights Act by allowing various common sense voting restrictions such as presenting identification on arrival.
He explained: "Since those decisions, there has been a dramatic increase in legislative measures that make it harder for millions of eligible voters to vote

Well, Mr. Garland, if asking for proper identification is “disenfranchising”, why do we insist on it in foreign elections??
Hmmmmm??

We all know at least 50 different circumstances where we must produce some kind of photo ID. I'm with #1. An ID makes it harder to cheat. It is what the dems do, cheat. And they are very good at it. But an official ID would put a crimp in that game. Doesn't mean they still won't cheat or at least try. But it might slow them down in their efforts. FJB and all the idiots currently working in this clown car administration.

Do Selma residents have to show ID to make purchases in liquor stores?
I'm so sick of the gaslighting. These hacks have no shame about using race to advance their agenda. Yet maybe the people are less reflexively buying into it. Look at these stats from a few years back, FTA:
Meanwhile, a Rasmussen Reports survey taken in 2021 found that an overwhelming majority of black voters were supportive of voter ID requirements.
“Majorities of whites (74%), blacks (69%) and other minorities (82%) say voters should be required to show photo identification before being allowed to vote,” the polling company noted at the time.

Well the Democrats are already registering unlimited numbers of illegal aliens to vote automatically under the Clinton era Motor-Voter laws when they apply for USA drivers licenses, no verification of US citizen required or requested. Do the wimpy Republicans even have a clue that nobody is going to object when those illegal aliens vote in the Democrat run sanctuary cities and areas?

Why doesn't he just stop beating around the bush and say we cheat, and we want to do away with these impediments that hamper our cheating?
I mean everyone knows they cheat it is obvious as the sky is blue for both sides of aisles.

Thank you, Donald Trump and (gulp) Mitch McConnell for NOT allowing Garland to be appointed to the Supreme Court. That may be the ONLY best decision that McConnell ever made!

No, Voter ID is VERY necessary, should be absolutely required to prove citizenship.

I need a photo ID to purchase a gun/liquor/cigars/cigarettes/pot (where legal) & buy cable TV!
I need a photo ID to rent a car, make a purchase with a check, be seen by a doctor, get on a plane, train, or bus.
So YES, idiot Garland, it IS DEFINITELY NECESSARY for the most important act a citizen performs, casting their ballot.

Why does Garland think it is "racist" to require ID for voting but not for boarding a commercial airliner or purchasing alcohol, cigarettes or cough syrup?

Why does someone not stand up and ask them why we need it to buy booze, certain over the counter drugs that we could just pick up before.. So many reasons to ask them about They get away with their lies. That evil devil Garland needs to be challenged in public not sitting on a friendly network or cozing up to the blacks in their churches

Send this piece of trash back to Russia where he came from and apparently learned nothing about Jewish persecution. I wonder how much Soros is paying him under the table.

So, if i want to go to the White House I need ID and an invitation but to vote, a sacred right of CITIZENS, anyone an pop into a polling site and vote and go on to the next and vote again without any problems. Too bad Garland didn't read the Constitution where it reads that American citizens have the right to vote. not anyone who ambles into our country unvetted.
