Election Intergrity Starts With Accepting Reality!

Deny, deny, deny.

Election integrity was the latest bullshit coming from former president Donald J. Trump and the Republicans. The very same lies that led to Trump supporters storming the U.S. Capitol. The same lies that allowed Republicans to pass gerrymandered congressional maps. The same lies that led toa sharp decline in election workers. The same lies that lead to Republicans passing controversial voter ID laws.

Newsflash, most Americans vote once. 

Not all Americans can leave work to go vote. 

Not all Americans vote early or cast mail in votes. Not all Americans cast absante ballots.

Most Americans want Election Day to be a national holiday.

Yet, Republicans refuse to support it. They do not support statehood for the District of Columbia or Puerto Rico. They do not support U.S. citizens living in Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, the U.S. Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico the opportunity to vote for president. They don't support American Samoa the opportunity to allow U.S. citizenship and the opportunity to vote for president.

They post their phony support for Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s vision for a better America while trying to strip away freedoms and endorsing racism.

Elections matter.

As President Joe Biden said it best, "You can't love your country only when you win" an election. Trump and Republicans show us that there is no ground floor when it comes to hypocrisy.

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) is fearing his time as Speaker is coming to an end.

Insufferable lawmaker, Rep. Majorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) is dangling a motion to vacate as the Republican majority dwindles down from abrupt resignations.
