Mother Jones released a video showing Jessica Anderson of the Heritage Foundation bragging about writing voter suppression bills for Repub controlled States across America that surgically target minority voters in Democratic leaning areas.
While the bills' intent is obvious what is also obvious and somewhat unnoticed is the reaction from the Heritage Foundation to the leaking of their anti-democratic agenda, nothing!
They do not appear to be upset at being 'found out.'
In fact it is almost as if they are saying, "So? What are you going to do about it, huh?"
And their brazen blatant disregard for 'we the people' is completely understandable!
The voters, both the ones targeted and the ones that will sneak through the cracks of their crackpot scheme, will not have a chance to voice or vote their disgust until November 2022, at which time the die will have been well and truly cast!
And in December 2022, when the GOP has taken back full control of Congress, if the Dems yell foul or rigged elections, the Repubs will smile, smirk and say 'fake news.'
There is only one way to wipe that projected smirky smile off the faces of the insurrectionists and their enablers and it resides in the current Congress.
Senate Bill S-1 and its counterpart H-1 in the House would negate the immoral edge the cheating Repubs are cementing in several States across America, and the Heritage Foundation knows this all too well!!
They are spending millions to keep their senators and Representatives in line.
And the simple carrot they are using is power!
And the fortune that will come their way if and when they can steal their way back into it!
Their unwitting (?) ally in Congress is a democrat named manchin, who refuses to allow the filibuster rules altered thus giving mcconnell and fiends the power the minority needs to determine the outcome and fate of S-1.
The destruction of America and its democracy is therefore in the hands of one little man who was elected to the Senate as a Democrat in 2016 and represents a whopping 1.8 million people in a State that ranks 38th out of 50 in the USA, West Virginia!
When history recounts the end of the American Democratic experiment the name Joe manchin will be listed alongside that of mitch mcconnell and on equal footing with benedict arnold.
