House Resolution 1 — Enforce Federal Control Over State Elections
_______
If you thought the midterm elections had problems, wait until you learn about Nancy Pelosi’s plan to terminate state control over American elections.
Democrats in Congress have announced their top legislative priority, and it isn’t health care, immigration, or taxes. Instead, they want to centralize power over elections in Washington, D.C. H.R. 1 is number one on the legislative agenda because it is the number one priority of House Democrats, leftist groups, deep-pocketed dark money, and those who use election process rules to help win elections — or at least to cause chaos.
The bill is a 571-page dreamscape of wild wishes and federal mandates on states.
H.R. 1 has 218 cosponsors. It forces states to implement mandatory voter registration. If someone is on a government list — such as receiving welfare benefits or rental subsidies — then they would be automatically registered to vote. Few states have enacted these systems because Americans still view civic participation as a voluntary choice. Moreover, aggregated government lists always contain duplicates and errors that states, even without mandatory voter registration, frequently fail to catch and fix.
H.R. 1 also mandates that states allow all felons to vote. Currently, states have the power under the Constitution to set the terms of eligibility in each state. Some states, like Maine, have decided that voting machines should be rolled into the prisons. Other states, like Nevada, have chosen to make a felony a disenfranchising event.
H.R. 1 also undermines the First Amendment by exerting government control over political speech and undoing the Supreme Court’s Citizen’s United decision.

Of course they want everyone registered. Even though only a fraction voluntarily participate. That other several dozen percent are simply votes waiting to be “harvested” as they did in California this last election. That is quite easily the margin of victory in virtually every race. As we saw in California, Democrats did not lose a single race where they pulled that. If we allow them to register everyone and conduct vote harvesting, Democrats will win every single subsequent election. We will have a single party, national socialists rule.
“House Resolution 1 — Enforce Federal Control Over State Elections”
If you want to know what REALLY PISSES ME OFF about NeverTrumpers is that THEY KNOW this would have all been done if Hillary won (either through Congress or around Congress), and THEY KNOW that Republicans would never be given a chance to compete in a fair election, EVER. Yet they said that if the Democrats won in 2016, no big deal, they’d be so far left that we’d defeat them in 2018 and 2020...well, not with their plan. That was simply NOT going to be allowed to happen.
So what do people do when the ability to effect change (or in this case, to prevent change) is not permitted at the ballot box? Correct - Civil War 2, which we would be careening into right about now, after the rigged mid-term ‘elections’.
For the Left, I understand them - they lust for power and know they cannot win it on ideas. So what the hell, if it takes cracking a few heads, so be it - that’s who they are (as shown countless times throughout history), and that is who they will always be.
For our side, TREASON is the only word that fits.
There should be a law that no law be over 3 pages - double spaced - and written in plain English.
For now, it is going nowhere. But once the Dems regain complete control of Congress and the WH, we are headed into a totalitarian state run by bureaucrats and ideologues. The Constitution will be thrown into the trash heap. Federalism will be dead and the states will be mere administrative units run by DC.

Yes.
I guess someone better tell The Belladonna of Berkeley.
Nancy is a bag of poisonous berries.
And THAT is why Sinema is a Senator from AZ!

I hear you, but ....
I just put myself through about 70 minutes of CNN, SeeBS, NBC, and MSNBC "news". Those "news" freaks seem to really believe that a substantial number of Republicans in Congress are so disillusioned with Trump these days, that they will begin to vote against him on various legislations.
I THINK THEY ARE WRONG. I guess we'll just have to see.
*********
'Billy Barr the Bagpipe Boy' hearings today. Make some popcorn.
Hateful ‘brazen bird’ Pelosi has always reminded me of this verse from Revelation 18:
“Babylon the great is fallen, ... and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.”

It looks like you're right, unless there is some king of intervention.
States and Cities Have Already Shown Democrats’ Election Reforms will Work
Oh, they’ll work alright.

HR1: “For the People Act”
This is terrifying. Obviously Trump will veto it, but this is what’s coming when the Dems gain control.
Republicans will never win another election.
• Automatic Voter Registration (sets up vote harvesting)
• Automatic Restoration of Voting Rights for “Ex” Felons (no comment needed)
• Dark Money Disclosure (personally, I don’t think organizations should be able to contribute to campaigns, and individuals’ contributions should be limited)
• Democracy Vouchers (giving tax money to individuals to contribute to campaigns – wow!)
• Early Voting and Same Day Registration (setting up voter fraud)
• Independent Redistricting Commissions (and who will control those?)
• Small Donor Public Financing (more tax money to individuals to contribute to campaigns – wow!)
Yes, but the 15th Amendment to the Constitution, along with the Voting Rights Act of 1965, has been used to take control of voting from many states.
President Trump is one of the few who has been able to break free of control of the Media and Deep State elite.
Many Republicans are RINOs.
More than enough to stop real reform with the slim margin in the Senate.
“THE GOP IS TO BLAME! when they have the opportunity to destroy them and their agenda and policies they sit on thier hands, when they have a Trump, a house and a senate on their side they look to appease and get along. If the infestation and rot is not removed completely we have the GOP to blame and it will be back with a vengeance and make the changes we see them pushing right now.”
Yep, the GOP WASTED TWO YEARS ARGUING WITH EACH OTHER OVER PRESIDENT TRUMP. Sad, very sad.
This would never make it past the $inate and if it did, President Trump would veto it.
IF I understand this idea-—there is absolutely NO PROVISION with checking out whether anyone collecting Federal or state benefits is legally here in the country & legally allowed to have such benefits.
So—This is a back door to registering to vote the over 61% of welfare recipients in California who are KNOWN to be illegal invaders. Also the other illegals collecting benefits in the other states.
There seems to be NO END to the evil moves of Pelosi.
They have closed their eyes to checking the true eligibility of people collecting benefits, and now they want all those people to AUTOMATICALLY be registered to vote.
IF the FEDS are doing the registering-—who is choosing what party they will be registered as belonging to?
IF done by Pelosi & group-—they will all be registered Democrat——Bet on it.
The states & Feds know exactly where these people are-—they have addresses to collect benefits. ROUND THEM UP & send them home.
LOL!
It will not pass...UNTIL they recapture all three branches.
...and they won’t stop this crap until 99% vote “D.”
What’s this “Constitution” thing you mentioned?
