    Default Republicans Keep Trying to Throw Out Black Votes After the Election

    It began on Tuesday night in Wayne County, Michigan, where the two Republican members of the four-person board of canvassers voted not to certify the election results of Detroit and its surrounding areas. Republican Monica Palmer said that the board did not have “complete and accurate information” on books used to record which ballots belonged to which precincts. The incompleteness Palmer described was involved discrepancies in around 387 votes in Detroit, a city that cast over 250,000 ballots in the election. Palmer’s motivations became a little clearer, when she made a motion to certify the results in the county’s majority-white suburbs and “communities other than the city of Detroit,” which is almost 78.6 percent Black. (The other Republican board member has an uglier, older history of prejudiced ideas: posting racist memes of Obama.)

    But these efforts have succeeded in once again revealing the GOP’s attitude toward Black voters — that their right to ballot access is less secure than that of their white neighbors. This is hardly a new message from the party that, this year, opposed the reinstatement of the Voting Rights Act, caused Black voters in Georgia to wait in line for up to 10 hours to vote, and restricted polling access in Texas for millions of Black and Latino voters. Nor is it a surprising action from a party that abandoned an actual platform this year, instead choosing to “enthusiastically support” a candidate who thought racism was his best chance at reelection.

    But Kamala Harris had no problem with it so why should anyone care? She has the most to lose...no? I'd give him a fist...oh boy would I!

    A Modest Proposal For Separating Blue States From Red

    Dear Red-State Trump Voter,
    Let’s face it, guys: We’re done.


    It is a tragedy that so much of the work that so many men and women toiled at for so long to make this a better country, and a better world, has been thrown away, leaving us all in such needless peril.

    This is why our separation in all but name is necessary.

    Lindsey asked election officials in 2 states to toss out some Dem votes. It has resulted in some pushing him to resign. There are witnesses.

    Lindsay Graham is one of the dirtiest, most spineless, most opportunistic politicians in American history.

    Aren't blacks capable of doing what whites have no problem doing?

    No, every Democrat that, for the last 4 years, went along with the charade pushed by the Democrat leadership take that prize, boy. When you try to railroad someone because he kicked your ass in an election, that's dirty, spineless and opportunistic especially when the Democrats were calling for impeachment immediately upon Trump winning yet didn't have the balls to do anything until 2 years later.
