Democrats certainly have an interest in weaker election laws, but is that what their frenzy in Georgia is really about? Or is there another agenda at work -- a more sinister, dangerous motive for the Left? According to Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), this isn't about the Peach State at all. It's about every state. "This disinformation has a purpose," he warned. And the only way to stop it is for every American to understand exactly what it is.
"These people literally have been lying about what's in [our] legislation to drive an agenda," Governor Brian Kemp (R-Ga.) insisted on "Washington Watch." Senate Republicans agree -- and many, like McConnell, have been on guard for weeks, watching this misinformation campaign unfold and understanding exactly what's behind it. "Washington Democrats want to pass a sweeping bill that would let them rewrite all 50 states' election laws and turn the Federal Election Commission into a Democrat-run partisan body," McConnell insisted. "This power grab is impossible to defend, so the Left wants to deflect. Instead of winning the debate, they want to silence debate by bullying citizens and entire states into submission."
That "sweeping bill" is H.R. 1, the absurdly-named For the People Act (which Republicans renamed the For the Corrupt Politicians Act). President Joe Biden and his party understand all too well that if Georgia succeeds at cleaning their election mess of 2020, other states will follow suit. Then what? Well, the Left can't manipulate the election as easily, and their dreams about consolidating power permanently are -- just that -- dreams. If they could make an example out of Georgia, or at least make them feel the pain of their reforms, odds are that other states would be more reluctant to tackle their own reforms.

Smart thing would be to launch coordinted efforts in all states to improve voter laws.
They would be incredibly overwhelmed.

Other than Trump, have you ever seen GOP politicians coordinate an effective and sustained offense against the Democrats on any issue?
I notice in the article a lot of effort to try to rehabilitate McConnell.
No McConnell, no Cheney, no McCarthy, or don’t count on conservatives.
They are the -cause- of all of this. THEY assisted the strangling of Trump, and assisted the steal.
That is sort of happening. I think there are initiatives in a solid majority of the states.
Everything that is not specifically designed to fight the Left will be forced to adopt the Left.
So, does this ban in Indian makeup include actual American Indians?
When Mitch needs a boost in his poll numbers, he contacts his democratic handlers and asks permission to throw out some barbs. Take it for what it’s worth.
Ole Mitch has been on guard for weeks, eh? Where was he on November 6th? Where was he on January 6th? Backstabbing Trump is where he was and now he’s concerned about what the democrats are trying to do? They got away with stealing two elections and he let them.
That would be effective.
99 percent of them are agains tprinciples as a matter of principle.
SJW: “In order to fight White Supremacy all “Native American” place names should be replaced.”
Normal Human: “Wait, wut? Like with Anglo-Saxon names?”
Every state needs bills like this. I wish we could smack PA in the face with one. We will see if they have teeth in ‘22. My God we can’t let Bidet steal another four years.
You speakum' truth, Paleface!
I’m 1/16 American Indian. Will they let me in if I paint a red stripe on one cheek?
You're a hexadecaroon, so, DEAL WITH IT!
