These are all excuses I've seen used to explain why IDs are hard to get even if they were free,
- It's hard for them to get to the place that gives out ID because they don't have a car
- Many don't have the necessary documents like birth certificate, passport, or social security card to get an ID
- They work all the time so they can't make it to the ID place during business hours
- They take care of family and can't leave them to get an ID
- It's unconstitutional because it is an extra requirement equivalent to a poll tax
The caricature excuses they give makes those without an ID look like the most useless individuals in the world. India did it with a billion people. I have to keep reminding myself that it has nothing to do with one's ability to obtain an ID and everything to do with an organized system of cheating that relies on the inability to require ID.
Have you ever seen both sides of an election being this positive right after an election about the direction the country is going? Usually the person that doesn't win the election has a neutral or negative outlook about things since they didn't win and won't be able to implement their policy. Things seem quite different here.
Harris=Brighter days are ahead. Trump=The best is yet to come.
I don't remember Hillary saying how great things were going to be right after losing. All I remember were some pot shots at Trump, some calls to #resist, doom and gloom, and hawking some books in the back of Costco.
Trump is talking like things are going to be fantastic and great in the future. With Biden dooming and glooming about pretty much everything these days, Trump is probably more positive on the general outlook of things than even Biden.
It just makes you go hmm when the guy that supposedly lost the election seems like the happiest, most positive person on the planet at the moment.
An amicus brief filed by the ACLU, the Cato Institute, and the American Conservative Union agreed with the attorneys and pointed to jurisdictions that have extended such provisions leading to warrantless invasions of homes for things like loud music or leaky pipes.
These 3 very different groups being on the same side of a court case says all you need to know.
Impeachment is a constitutional process. Yes, that requires one to have a brain, but if swing states all overturn their own results, the hope is that Congress, the Supreme Court, and the military will be racing each other to get Biden out of office out of sheer embarrassment to rectify their grave mistake of installing the wrong guy.
What if the blue dress woman works for Trump? Trump sends her a few EOs here and there to slip in for a few weeks. Biden signs and no one notices as they slip into the federal register, having Biden unwittingly MAGA for at least a few weeks. Then drop a combined confession/resignation for him to sign and it's all over.

"Raise your right hand and repeat after me. I, Joseph Robinette Biden Jr"
"I, Joseph Robinette Biden Jr"
"Do solemly swear"
"Do solemly swear"
"That I have the right to remain silent"
"That I have the right to remain silent?"
"And that I anything I say can and will be used against me in a court of law"
"Hey. What is this malarky?"
"Dang it. I bet Alito $20 I could have you Mirandize yourself before you figured it out. Oh well. Book em Danno."
I look at it with a different upside. All of the hidden taxes, fees, inflation, inefficiency, rent seeking, and downright theft would stop. If all that money stopped getting sucked out of the economy, imagine how much richer we would all be. We would have real earnings again and prosper from our labor once more. I could easily see wages for honest work jumping 30-50% in real value.
Even if they seize all that illicit cash and can't figure out a way to equitably distribute it back to the people, they could use it to give the country a tax holiday for 1-10 years.
