A Republican secretary of state sent a letter this week to the Department of Justice (DOJ) alerting it to an executive order signed in 2021 that he says will allow felons and illegal aliens to register to vote in elections.
In the letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland, Republican Mississippi Secretary of State Michael Watson wrote that a Biden-signed executive order has led to agencies under Mr. Garland’s charge “attempting to register people to vote, including potentially ineligible felons and to co-opt state and local officials into accomplishing this goal.”

Mr. Watson took issue with one provision that directed the DOJ to ensure that the U.S. Marshals Service change jail and “intergovernmental agreements” to mandate that the facilities “provide educational materials related to voter registration and voting,” and “facilitate voting by mail, to the extent practicable and appropriate.”
The problem, according to Mr. Watson, is that those materials may be given to people who can’t vote such as felons and illegal aliens. State officials are also essentially being forced to comply with the rules, he said. “Our understanding is that everyone in the Marshals’ custody is given a form advising them of their right to register and vote,” his letter said, according to Fox News. “Providing ineligible non-citizens with information on how to register to vote undoubtedly encourages them to illegally register to vote, exposing them to legal jeopardy beyond their immigration status.”
The letter said that the secretary of state’s office believes that providing a form to illegal immigrants who are jailed to advise them of their right to vote “undoubtedly encourages them to illegally” do so and exposes them to “legal jeopardy.”

I like how they are now trying to ban that stupid internet app “Tik Tok” because it’s a “Threat to national security”.
But the open border is not a security threat.
To me the only reason they are looking to ban that app is because there are too many pro-Trump videos on it, especially from the black community.
The videos of blacks supporting Trump are endless......

Agree. Plus if dems are willing to cheat, why wouldn't they offer bribes for their votes?
So once again, the legal immigrant gets screwed?
And an invading army to preserve the Junta’s “Power…”
I don't think so, but if you're sure, you should write to Mississippi Secretary of State Michael Watson and let him know.
Oh, I’m so relieved! The feckless Quisling ‘republicans’ are suddenly all over THIS?
And 2020 was a completely CLEAN election? Whatever. *SPIT*
The party is over.
It’s been ‘over’ for way too long, FRiend. :(
Constiution.?? Nowadays, might makes right. He with the biggest gun, wins. :(

rofl.
“Legal” immigration is abused too. IMO Stop all immigration.
Yes, but never has pandering and catering to “immigrants” been so great as the last 2 decades all in the name of ILLEGALS. It’s pervasive, including corporate public image, never mind government signage for SPANISH. Now we are even getting Spanish TV commercials. It’s sickening.
I stand corrected lol
or perhaps, sit corrected?? ROFL... its getting close to the weekend.
