OPINION by Beth Van Duyne represents the 24th District of Texas Your cites are NOT evidence, they are ONLY OPINIONS of Republican politicians. Find some REAL reporters that are reporting FACTS.

I posted the source showing inflation history and you posted NOTHING which refutes it, nor proves your claim of a "record high." You're just proving your dishonesty.

And you completely FAIL when you try, which is why it takes you SO LONG. LMAO

I've been posting online about US Federal politics for the last 15 years, so you're wrong about ^this. And my chart PROVES you were WRONG about your CLAIM reposted ABOVE. It was NO KIND of RECORD HIGH. Grow up and own it.

It has EVERYTHING to do with proving YOUR CLAIM WRONG. Duh Be a MAN and own YOUR MISTAKE.

Apparently YOUR education FAILED to teach you how US government works. Biden CAN NOT "SOLEY" approve the recovery stimulus spending. Duh. Of course recovery stimulus spending UNDER TRUMP ALSO affected the M-1 dollar supply, so you messed up there, too. The supply chain is disrupted WORLDWIDE. Biden responsible for that, too. LMAO You mean the simplistic theory of supply and demand? If you took ECON 201, you would find out that is simplistic sophistry.

Virtually no one here is doing that. Too easy to get caught.

It is a matter of STATISTICS. Blacks are less likely to HAVE the required ID. No condescension required.

If ONE person is denied his right to vote due to not having an ID, that is voter suppression. Of course you completely ignored the relative benefit, because you've got NO REBUTAL. Joe Biden does not represent the poor in rural areas.

As previously stated, there are hundreds of sources saying that. What I quoted was YOUR CITE. Tim Michels(R) said Democrats will never win again if he's elected.

Kari Lake = Trumpian election denier. Worst of America Reagan would be rolling over in his grave if he saw what has become of the GOP in America.

Maybe a dozen if you're dedicated. But to vote without being caught means you have to KNOW someone's registration details and know they have not voted AND will not vote. If you go in and claim to be someone who already voted, there will be and investigation and you'll be busted. If you vote for someone that comes in later to vote, there will be an investigation and busted again.

IOW, you got nuthin.

Generating counterfeit ballots without leaving a trace is much harder than you imagine. If they're generated by machine, that leaves a trace. It would take an army to generate them manually, and again, that many conspirators in on the scheme virtually guarantees it will be exposed. Look at how much evidence was traced with the thousands that were in on the Jan 6th conspiracy to overturn the election. Many blabbed just due to shear stupidity.

There are numerous security measures in place. But even if a few vote more than once without being caught, it is virtually impossible for enough to succeed to change the outcome. If the election is that close, the increased scrutiny means more will be caught. But the vast majority of elections are not nearly that close. IOW, the cost of voter suppression from Voter ID far outweighs any benefit from increased accuracy when voter impersonation fraud is extremely rare.. Just understand this: in order to succeed in changing the outcome many many individuals need to be in on the scheme and nothing with that many conspirators ever stays secret.

Voter impersonation fraud is virtually non-existent. Everyone KNOWS the only viable way to steal an election is CORRUPTING the COUNT. AKA, poll workers or machine corruption. The one thing voter ID requirements are good for is disqualifying voters, which is what the Republicans want. AKA voter suppression. Particularly in certain neighborhoods, and that is why the lines are LONG there, and Republicans oppose vote by mail and drop boxes. Did you hear that Texas SoS declared ONLY ONE drop box per county? Not too much of a burden on rural counties, but Harris county has a population of 4.7M. Know who lives there and why Republicans in Texas want to make it harder for them to vote?

It is a democratic republic. Look up the definition of republic. It INCLUDES democratic elections of representatives. That is the part that makes it hybrid of democracy and representation.

"The people" do not exercise ANY power except through their representatives in the government and the FEW states which allow voter initiatives. However in some Republican run states, they've been known to just ignore or overrule the voters' choices. In FL, felons were given the right to vote by voter initiative, but the legislature and executive sabotaged that by adding a bunch of arbitrary and superfluous requirements ON TOP of the voters CHOICE. Just like Jim Crow made it very difficult for black people to vote. ?

Too late, they already filed their NONSENSICAL ruling. Here in the US we all know what legislatures are doing when they put superfluous limitations on voting. Of course it had gotten more covert over time, until conservatives gained enough power on the court to enforce arbitrary restrictions (AGAIN). Then they trashed the voting rights act, pretending there were no longer racists trying to restrict the vote in black neighborhoods.

Only by the protections it gives for individual rights. Like the the right to VOTE.

It was ALWAYS supposed to be democratic CHOICE of representatives. And it was made MORE democratic in 1913 when Senators were first democratically elected.

Sure. Democrats raised gas prices WORLDWIDE. LMAO Meanwhile the multi-national oil conglomerations are reporting RECORD PROFITS. They're the ones who ACTUALLY CONTROL PRICES charged.

You mean the cleanup by "A spokesperson for Michels" SAID THAT LATER. Contradictory statements only mean one of them is LYING.

It's a Republican candidate for governor declaring he will not allow Democrats to ever win in Wisconsin again if he's elected. Are you denying he said that? There are hundreds of other sources quoting him saying that. Just because you found a meme does not mean the Republicans are not planning to cheat their voters in future elections. Right now they have a case before the SCOTUS testing whether state legislatures can declare the winner of an election without interference from their courts nor a veto by the governor. ?
