Looks like Ron Johnson didn't expect this response to his tweet (above). Well, at least now it's clear why Republicans don't want people to vote.
Here's another reason:
Kind of makes the whole "1776" thing irrelevant, doesn't it?
We cats will not be watching the voting rights goings-on in Congress. One, we're busy, and two, we cannot bear the cable-news talking heads and their constant pronouncements of gloom and doom. If you're feeling fretful about all this (and who can blame you?), please bear in mind that Chuck Schumer's goal is not an immediate victory but to put all the bad actors on the record — and on the spot — with their "no" votes. NOTE: This not only includes Senators Manchin and Sinema but, most importantly, the 50 Republican Senators whose intransigence is making this nightmare possible. The process has just begun.
The last time the Voting Rights Act was up for extension — before the Supreme Court gutted it as "no longer necessary" — it passed without a single dissenting vote. What's changed since then is that the GOP no longer believes in democracy. So keep the pressure on, everyone — especially if you have Senators who are Republican. The Capitol switchboard number is 202-224-3121. We cats PURR.
