State propaganda tools Fox News & Newsmax are so blatantly government controlled that they’d never report on one of these Trump fraud cases, let alone the current ones.
It still blows my mind that the Republican party has blatantly run Fox News for decades and the FCC let them call it β€œnews.”

Start from the very beginning: there’s no excuse for making voting harder for anybody without a good reason, and Republican fraud hallucinations are not a good reason. If you can’t show a genuine problem that ID laws fix, they can’t be justified as needed in the first place.

Women can certainly figure out how to get a photo ID. That's not all the SAVE Act requires. To ask women to procure a birth certificate, a marriage license AND a passport amounts to having to jump through insurmountable & costly efforts just to cast a ballot, something men aren't required to do.

Today, it was a grand jury of anonymous American citizens who upheld the rule of law and determined this case should not proceed. Hopefully, this ends this politicized investigation for good.

This is part of a pattern that is impeachable: Trump cuts previously appropriated Congressional funds, but only to states led by Democrats (California, Colorado, Illinois and Minnesota).
