Vice President Kamala Harris commemorated the anniversary of “Bloody Sunday” in Selma, Alabama, by comparing Republicans to the brutal state troopers that attacked black civil rights protesters.
On Sunday, March 7, 1965, white Alabama state troopers brutally attacked civil rights activists in Selma as they crossed the Edmund Pettus Bridge in a march for voting rights. According to Kamala Harris, Republicans passing voter ID laws (which black Americans support) and limiting mail-in voting are just like the actions of those troopers.
“Those brave marches continued to push forward to secure the freedom to vote. And they were pushed back. Today we stand on this bridge at a different time. We again, however, find ourselves caught in between injustice and justice, between disappointment and determination, still in a fight, to form a more perfect union,” she said.
“Nowhere is that more clear than when it comes to the ongoing fight to secure the freedom to vote,” she added.
The vice president recalled the record voter turnout during the 2020 election as a “triumph of democracy” while ignoring the fact that the state of Texas recently had high voter turnout despite the fact it passed one of the very laws she claims hinders voting.
“A record number of people cast their ballots in the 2020 elections. It was a triumph of democracy in many ways. But not everyone saw it that way. Some saw it as a threat. And so as powerful people have done many times in our nation’s history, they launched an assault on the freedom to vote,” she said.

Ummmmm, those Cops on the Bridge were Democrats Sweetie!!
This is this cur’s problem and why her political career is dead. The only thing she’s good at is being an obnoxious, nasty itchbay.
“Fweedom!” dumb bitch
heh
Just when you thought it couldn’t get worse, she opens her mouth and starts to talk again. How in the world they managed to cheat and get those two into office completely baffles me. China HAD to be involved to have the money to pull that off. There is no other way.
Forever embroiled in hate for whitey. These people will go to their graves in perpetual anger and victimhood. What a terrible way to live life.
And incredibly out of step for being vice president of this country, with all that’s going on in the world.
The governments in Alabama at the time were all led by democrats. You know the party of slavery, rebellion, the KKK, and Jim Crow laws
The thought of this divisive imbecile stepping into the presidency is truly frightening.
If only she’d take up golfing, less talkie more golfing
SPJNK.
Seeing that photo of John Lewis getting a beating helps me understand, though, why he had a livid hatred of white people. Something like that would cook your mind forever unless you knew Jesus. He obviously didn’t know Jesus. But, I DO understand. If folks here don’t turn back to God, all hell is going to break loose. Ozymandias.
Looks like they’ll drag us to hell with them.
With apologies to Sam Raimi.
Wait until you see what happens in thew Mid-Terms and GE in 2024. They are skilled experts in fraud and corruption, and already have it all planned, I’d bet.
Yes, already figured that one out too. They are NOT changing the way they make decisions which indicates they do NOT care about the elections and are planning to cheat. If they thought the elections would be valid, they would CHANGE what they are doing. All of this is really sad to watch.
Ukraine is a small country in Europe.
I guess it skipped Ms. Opioids dulled mind that those cops were more than likely Democraps.
We were lucky in many respects that Obama was obsessed with golf. It was obviously a high priority for him.
Good for us in the sense that the more time he spent on the course the less time he spent making mischief and attempting to transform the country.
Fortunately for the country Obama was basically lazy and incompetent. Had it been the opposite he could have done even more damage than he did.
SMDH! So, NOT a student of factual history then.
