Alabama should be quarantined. Nothing good ever came out of there. Nothing good ever will.

You know, you could go blonde, wear blue contacts, carrying the Bible around and learn a few passages. Might work for awhile.

and you can directly blame Jill Stein and the precious little snowflakes who voted for her for all the calamities that will befall us all.

Thanks a lot assholes.

“This signals to voters that they will not be protected under this administration,” said Danielle Lang, the deputy director of voting rights at the Campaign Legal Center, which is challenging Texas’ law in court.

Really? And who was the idiot that needed the “signal”? It was so patently obvious to the rest of us

Fucking outrageous no matter how predictable Jeff Sessions is. This is wrong on so many levels…the first being, that the AG of the United States is fucking Jeff Sessions, a devout racist involved in supporting discrimination with his own lawsuits in the past.

Sessions is a criminally racist asshole and co-conspirator and accessory to the Russian conspiracy and is doing what we expected him to do. The case will continue. In the meantime, I beseech the DNC and state parties to set up a program to get people voter IDs, starting with the key battleground states as Wave 1 (PA, WI, MI). We need to fund this program. I am certain that if the DNC sets up such a program, individual Dems will gladly contribute to it to make sure people have the IDs required to vote. We can beat the GOP at this game.

I think Radio-frequency identification (RFID) is the way to go.

Just to be fair, since it isn’t clear from the piece, the DOJ will still support that it was discriminatory in effect, but just not in intent. Either way it has to change…

This will need to be a huge rallying cry during the mid-terms to inspire minority voters …unless of course they are no longer allowed to vote by the mid-terms…(with the exception of special pets like Ben Carson.)

Welcome to the Rewhited States of Amurikkka.

If you’re brown, get out of town.

There’s always armbands in a variety of styles and colors.

Same as it always was …Where Jeff Sessions grew up 60 years later same shit

Oxford Town, Oxford Town
Ev’rybody’s got their hats bowed down
The sun don’t shine above the ground
Ain’t a-goin’ down to Oxford Town.

He went down to Oxford Town
Guns and clubs followed him down
All because his face was brown
Better get away from Oxford Town.

Oxford Town around the bend
He comes to the door, he couln’t get in
All because of the color of his skin
What do you think about that, my frien’ ?

Me and my gal, my gal’s son
We got met with a tear gas bomb
I don’t even know why we come
Goin’ back where we come from.

Oxford Town in the afternoon
Ev’rybody singin’ a sorrowful tune
Two men died 'neath the Mississippi moon
Somebody better investigate soon.

This should be at or very near the top of the to-do list of Perez and Ellison with regard to elections this year and especially 2018. The Democratic Party has to fight voter ID laws wherever possible, but it also has to give voters the tools to beat the suppression as well.

Just be happy William Zantzinger died in 2009 or President Bannon would’ve put him in charge of the DOJ instead.

Don’t criticize Sessions. The Constitution clearly states that unless you’re a White, Land-owning Male, you’re not entitled to a vote.

Don’t try to confuse the issue with all those “amendments”.
