Georgia Governor Signs Sweeping Voter Suppression Bill Into Law


Georgia Governor Signs Sweeping Voter Suppression Bill Into Law:
  Georgia’s Republican Gov. Brian Kemp has signed into law an extremely controversial and sweeping voting measure, that Republicans claim is necessary to finally put a stop to voter fraud, but critics say it will ultimately lead to long lines, partisan control of elections and more difficult procedures for voters trying to cast their ballots by mail.  The bill also criminalizes any third-party groups who try and provide water or snacks to voters in line. 

Now, who could possibly find anything wrong with Georgia’s Republicans ensuring that precincts in minority communities will have waits of up to 8-10 hours in order to vote?  Or, with making it a crime for volunteers to provide water or snacks to those stuck in those long lines for all that time?  I mean, just think of it as a wonderful opportunity to get to catch up on what’s new with all your friends and neighbors.


Of course, they’ll always be those damn skeptics who’ll argue that if a U.S. combat soldier captures an enemy soldier, the Geneva Convention requires them to at least provide that enemy soldier with water - so why wouldn’t we extend that same humanitarian compassion toward our own American voters?


Well, the answer to that is this is Georgia, and Georgia’s state politics are primarily run by Republicans who don’t want no damn stinking “humanitarianism.”  They want “liberty!”  And “liberty” means the God-given right of every Republican candidate get to elected or reelected - by any means necessary.


Hey, I think I’ve got an idea!  How about having all those folks delivering the bottled water and snacks to thirsty voters - wear military fatigues and have AR-15s strapped over their shoulders instead of wearing their usual clothes?  Hell, that ought to be enough to completely confuse any Georgia Republicans and their enforcers.


Why, I can see it all now - - COP:  You aren’t carrying any water or snacks in that backpack are you fella?  POLL VOLUNTEER:  No sir, officer!  Just guns and lots and lots of ammo.  COP:  OK, then - go on ahead son.  And, thank you for your patriotism.  You see, Georgia Republicans have concluded that the only way to truly prevent “voter fraud,” is to prevent most citizens from voting.  Why, who said Lester Maddox is dead?

Marjorie Taylor Greene Claims Pete Buttigieg Emasculating Driving With Electric Cars

During a segment on Neil Cavuto’s Fox News program, US Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg was told by the host that Marjorie Taylor Greene is claiming "Mr. Buttigieg is trying to emasculate the way we drive" by supporting electric vehicles.  In response, Buttigieg told Cavuto that “my sense of manhood is not connected to whether my vehicle is fueled by gasoline, or whether it's fueled by electricity.”  When asked by Cavuto if he was offended by what Greene said, Buttigieg remarked "To be honest, there are other members of Congress that I pay more attention to when I'm thinking about opinions that really matter.” Oh, come on now!  Let’s get real.  It would take a helluva lot more than an electric car to “emasculate” Marjorie Taylor Greene.  Besides, I’m pretty sure “real men” actually ride horses, anyway.  Of course, I’m certainly no psychiatrist, but it sounds like Greene’s anger could be a combination of both “road rage” and “roid rage,” leaving her...

Trump Takes to Truth Social to Spread ‘Roomer’ About Ron DeSantis

Former president Donald Trump just shared some juicy gossip about Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on his Truth Social platform.   Trump posted, “Roomer (sic) are (sic) strong in political circles that Ron DeSanctimonious, whose Presidential run is a shambles, and whose poll numbers have absolutely crashed, putting him 3rd and 4th in some states, will be dropping out of the Presidential race in order to run, in Florida, against Rick Scott for Senate.   Now that’s an interesting one, isn’t it?” Gee, Donald Trump spreading “roomers?”  Say it ain’t so!   Now, me thinks perhaps that prestigious Wharton School of Business Trump attended might want to consider adding some basic 3rd-grade spelling classes to its curriculum.   Apparently, Trump is stalled at that level of language development where he is still spelling words phonetically.   Why his poor spelling makes him look like a real “looser.”   Frankly, I’m not sure its a wise choice for Republicans to choose ...

Mike Huckabee Claims COVID-19 Death Risk Small and Sin Risk Lethal

Mike Huckabee Claims COVID-19 Death Risk Small and Sin Risk Lethal:   Former Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee has stirred some controversy with medical professionals by claiming that the risk of death from coronavirus is very “minimal,” but “sin is 100% lethal. Oh, really Mike?  Then how about showing me a death certificate which lists “sin” as the primary cause of death.  Of course, the fact is, sin couldn’t be 100% lethal, or a guy like me wouldn’t even be alive to write this.   On the other hand, maybe you’re on to something Mike - and sin really is lethal, and I secretly used a “ghostwriter” to write this joke. https://www.johnnyrobishcomedy.com
