Typically when you dont attack and beat the cops when you exercise your right to protest you dont wind up being held for long.

This stunning picture was just released. It shows the member of the Congressional Black Caucasians being led out immediately after she was taken into custody...

No, there was no such insurrection at all there.

According to a statement posted to Twitter by Capitol Police, the protesters were warned three times to stop before they were arrested for violating a D.C. law that bars "crowding, obstructing, or incommoding," and disallows demonstrators to "resume engaging in a demonstration after being instructed by a law enforcement officer to cease engaging in a demonstration."

No there was not. If she had kicked some Republican butts, it would have been justified. Republicans are the ones support9ing insurrection. The voting rights of Americans are under assault by Republicans.

You have absentee ballots and in most states you have 15 to 20 days to early vote. Also have Motor Voter law.Nobody is being denied the right to vote in the United States of America. India, Afghanistan, and Iraq have stricter ID laws than the United States. Canada and France shit canned mail-in ballots because of voter fraud.

He praises the former president's tax cuts, pugnacious stand against China and steps his administration took to help speed development of the COVID-19 vaccine. He believes Trump in many ways changed the Republican Party for the better, broadening its appeal among blue-collar and less-privileged voters.

Further, Roe defends the Trump-inspired move to tighten election laws, which has become all the rage among GOP state lawmakers, claiming that much of the effort amounts to simply rolling back allowances made to accommodate voting amid the pandemic.

All that said, Roe's unforgivable sin was acknowledging Trump's loss and refusing to parrot his lies about widespread election larceny. Even 99.44% purity — that's Ivory soap pure — isn't enough for Trump and his blind followers.

“It wasn’t the people surrounding Donald Trump who screwed it up,” Roe said of the 2020 election. “Donald Trump screwed it up. People pissed off about 2020 should focus their anger on the person who screwed it up.”

And he suggested if Republicans were going to take back the House and Senate in 2022 and reclaim the White House in 2024, they’re going to have to get past worship of their mendacious idol.

"The reality is, if we don't start moving forward," Roe said, "we will be a permanent minority and the gains we made at the state level, positions we're holding at the federal level in the House and Senate, will fritter away if we don't get our act together."

It's one thing to indulge in fantasy. It's another to try to win elections. (Much less govern.) Those Republicans who would deny the truth also ignore basic political math: Parties and political candidates that succeed do so by addition, not subtraction.

Column: He called out Trump's election lie. That made him toxic to fellow Republicans

This is a true blue Republican who supported everything Trump did. His one sin was he admitted the truth. Trump lost. He is also saying Republicans must move on to be successful in 2022. That is why Democrats could defy the odds in 2022.

This is more than about IDs. But some people may not be able to get a specific ID card. They may not own a car or it would be a personal hardship to get one. Colorado allows voters to use 16 different forms of ID.

If anyone in America wants to go vote it's easy and not complicated. Nobody is denied the right to vote in the United States of America. Mail-in ballots should be banned.

That may not be practical. Also Republicans are making it harder to vote by mail. They are limiting the time to get a ballot and mail it in. How does allowing a 24 hour voting day compromise voting integrity? How does giving someone a bottle of water compromise election integrity? It doesn't but it makes it harder for some people to vote.

He is a true blue Republican except he admits Trump lost. We will see if the Republican attack on voting rights has succeeded.

Yes they are. By making it harder to vote, the greater the chance of making a mistake. In some states, Republicans want to add more polling places in Republican areas and having fewer in Democrat areas. Republican and Democrat areas should have the same number of polling places and no one should have to wait more than 45 minutes.
