First step in making the cheating that was done in the Swing States easily done on a National Scale.
Now on to the Senate !
On Wednesday evening, the House of Representatives passed H.R. 1, the “For the People” Act, which federalizes state election law and undermines key safeguards such as voter ID.
The bill passed 220-210, with every Republican voting against it (and two not voting) and every Democrat but one voting for it.
This kind of rank partisanship on an elections bill should worry Americans, and so should the specifics of what the bill does.
H.R. 1 requires states to allow any eligible voter to vote by mail in federal elections, a practice that is inherently less secure than in-person voting. The bill also requires states to allow any eligible voter to use ballot drop-boxes of the kind that Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s Center for Technology and Civic Life (CTCL) financed in the 2020 election, likely driving up turnout in blue areas. H.R. 1 also mandates that states accept ballots that arrive in the mail up to 10 days after Election Day, so long as they had been postmarked on or before Election Day, echoing a controversial practice in Pennsylvania in 2020.
The bill creates a nationwide automatic voter registration program, which would likely result in double-registrations and the registration of non-citizens. In fact, H.R. 1 explicitly exempts from prosecution people who are “not eligible to vote in elections for Federal office but [were] automatically registered to vote” (Sec. 1015).
This is what "trusting the plan" got us. Yeah, we're fucked. Mail-in ballots were likely the main source of fraud in November, and why Trump lost. The dems planned this, they saw how beautifully it worked, and they will keep doing it. Fact: there was no plan besides tweeting. You see where that got us. Also, the GOP-run state legislatures cucked out, and now here we are.
Creating a new party ain't lookin' so bad now, is it? There's no way we're taking over the GOP, and there's no way we're going to win anyway, so why the hell not?
I still can’t believe Trump et al had no plan to deal with the cheating everyone knew was gonna happen in 2020. They all let it happen.
Trump probably just underestimated the fraud that would happen, and assumed that any fraud that did happen would be dealt with in the courts like it should've been. He did beat the fraud in 2016, but this time nobody seemed to care/do anything about the huge amounts of obvious fraud, and anybody who speaks out about it is now a conspiracy theorist trying to steal the election.
