Lawmaker Sues To Stop Counting Military Ballots In Wisconsin After Voter Fraud Stunt

Well the big liar Rump was against soldiers in every way that mattered, so what a surprise the Republicans are the party of suing to make sure soldiers’ votes don’t count.

Was I first? Yippee!

‘We support the troops’. Unless they’re voting…or need medical treatment with the VA system…or in cases of sending them to unnecessary wars…

But we totally support the troops.
Republicans are repugnant.

Scrawled in lipstick on the RNC mirror: “Stop us before we voter fraud again!”

Today’s GOP: It’s Turtles Projection All The Way Down.

(They should just call themselves the “Chaps Party” since they’re utterly bottomless.)

Your honor, they caught me after I robbed a bank, but I was only demonstrating that it is easy for anyone, like illegal immigrants, to rob banks. So we are good, right?

This is more like someone trying to sue to get the bank to close down because “People might rob it,” after their cousin tried and failed to rob it.

Perhaps those in military have pledged their allegiance to the country not its former or even any future leader. Fuck you to servicemen and women who are doing what you’re not? Or are you simply trying to live up to your user name?

Bank robbers rob banks only because that’s where the money is. Perhaps the money should be moved to a Ben and Jerry’s factory and packaged as a mint flavored offering.

Note how Republicans are endless lying about Democrats stealing elections while they are pulling out every last dirty trick to rig the vote count!

Do these morons honestly believe that the elections authorities are going to accept three ballots from the same person? Really?? They don’t understand how votes are counted.

I confess to feeling sympathy with un. I’m tired of the military being held up as paragons and having what seems to be the bulk of the armed services turn towards authoritarianism and evil regimes like Putin and 45*. My father served. I believe all vets deserve free and top quality health care. But I also believe that civilians do too.

Support the troops, my buttcheeks.

They would disenfranchise the people that are protecting their freedom to be idiots.

What’s missing from this story is how a fraudulently requested ballot gets counted? If I can ask for a ballot with any name, registered voter or not, then does that ballot automatically get counted? I think not. That should be in the story.

Meanwhile in Michigan…

I can’t help but note that former WI Supreme Court Justice Gableman is involved here, employed as he now is at Thomas More Society and representing Rep. Brandtjen. For those interested, the complaint is linked at Gateway Pundit dot com but I appreciate that folks here have a compunction about going there. I need to get back to the day job, but probably a better source will emerge.

NB none of this is to criticize TPM for not providing a link, their hands are presumably full and I see things getting worse

Ah yes, committing fraud to show how easy it is to commit fraud in order to punish all the people who weren’t even thinking about committing fraud. Brilliant! I see no holes in this.
