Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) had some sharp words Monday for the senators protecting the filibuster amid the voting rights debate, suggesting they are debasing the legacy of Martin Luther King Jr. just as the country is honoring the civil rights legend.

Indeed. The voting bill has NOTHING to do with MLK’s legacy. It has to do with enabling massive voter fraud and winning elections like the American Communists that they are.

Yeah, the fascist left foaming at the mouth: “If you don't agree with me you're a racist and you don't deserve to live!”

These people are truly mentally unbalanced.

She’s the Botox Queen
Can stand the heat
And accusations sling

Botox Queen
Been a radical
Since she was 17

Oh yeah

She her skin
Look so thin
Bounce a quarter of her nose

See that girl
Hear her blovate
She’s the Botox Queen!

Sorry Nancy, I don’t think King would want to turn our elections over to the Marxist “democrats” with Little Johnny’s Voter Fraud Bill.

Kakistocracy
A kakistocracy is a government run by the worst, least qualified, or most unscrupulous citizens.

Someone should demand Pelosi explain how and why this happened...

For better or worse... MLK’s legacy is now letting people know where to NOT get off the freeway.

It’s not voting rights. It is the right to cheat on elections.

We have to stop the Dems and media from lying about this.

If this voter fraud bill is supposed to honor King’s “legacy”, why the **** did you name it after little Johnny Lewis? You need to get your head out of your *** Nanny.

Correct. This bill is an affront to all who worked or gave all for free and fair elections.
