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.

“China HAD to be involved to have the money to pull that off. There is no other way.”
Perhaps not. Consider the historical dishonesty of the democrat party regarding elections and the blind hatred for Trump. They are capable of almost anything. Changing voting procedures (mail in ballots, ballot harvesting, etc.) prior to the 2020 election paved the way for massive voter fraud that remains unanswered.
Bout as long as his last diaper.
I’d still like to know if she went 4 on the floor when she services Willie Brown for her job.
The Jim Crow South was run by democrats... so was the KKK and White Citizens Councils..
Southern democrats ON A DIME changed from ‘Blacks can do no right” to “blacks can do no wrong”. Both positions damaged the black community.
Democrats ran to the front of the civil rights parade and claimed it as their own in the early 60’s - took it away from ‘Uncle Toms’ - like MLK and handed it over to more violent socialists groups.
Harris is a fool
“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.”
Very likely.
/yawn
This is what they want.
Exactly who is prevented from voting? She is a lying piece of obama.
LGB / FJB. Kamala is a w____.
Bullcrap. But whatever. Probably 50% of Freepers and 90% of Americans believe the same thing. Those ‘civil rights marchers’ set off the chain of events that has destroyed this country.
I find it amazing that no one is asking about the ‘natural born citizen clause in Article II. Obama/Jarret have amazing ability to stigmatize even legitimate constitutional arguments.
What a complete idiot!
It got me banned on Twitter for posting it to Pelosi
Honestly, she MIGHT have been a competent kindergarten teacher; instead, she’s the worst VP in history. Completely worthless.
Even here on the most conservative website there are many who vociferously defend the children of foreigners, who themselves are born foreigners even if born here, to be able to be President in direct opposition to the desire of the founders to keep foreigners out of that one office.
Anyone with more than ONE nationality is NOT naturally an American.
John Jay to George Washington:
Permit me to hint, whether it would be wise and seasonable to provide a strong check to the admission of Foreigners into the administration of our national Government; and to declare expressly that the Command in Chief of the American army shall not be given to nor devolve on, any but a natural born Citizen.
And Texans are jealous. Everyone is arguing Ukraine’s right not to be part of Russia and to do what it wants. Texans assert they have the same right, but most take it as a joke.
Somebody please tell me exactly how a half Jamaican-half Indian is down with the civil rights struggle.?
When we saw just how pathetic the democrats were, we fired them all over the next 20 years.
Cackle Her forte: Cackle Cackle Cackle Cackle etc etc etc
For her forte I forgot to add: Heels up!
