    1. There is no fight, only theater.

      Texas will pass its voting legislation whether they have to incarcerate these Democrats or not. Every single one has an arrest warrant.

      If the “For the People Act” passed the Senate, (never gonna happen) the Supreme Court would instantly shoot it down for directly violating Article 1, Section 4 of the US Constitution.

      Unless Democrats can manage to get the US Constitution amended, this is all just a publicity stunt.

  1. Seems odd that republicans would be so against having more legal people able to vote, if they believe they have the best policies that people all love and would vote for. 🤔😅😂

    1. @Constituent A
      If they’re getting off work at 3 AM, they had literally all day to vote before work. No dice.

    2. @Kevin Chambers “all I hear is bla, bla, bla” – this is not at all surprising, considering your demonstrably low intelligence quotient.

    3. @Constituent A
      “Blah blah blah. Durr ima dumbocrat” that’s all i heard you say. I guess you are an NPC for the demokkkrats. Hey buddy, its not a crime to actually form your own opinion that goes against the narrative 👍

    4. @Nameless Progressive Clone Not if they’re working two or three jobs. Do you have a vision impairment?

    5. @Constituent A

      If they’re working 2 or 3 jobs, they’ve got more important things to do than vote and the choices they made in life leading to needing 2 or 3 jobs are evidence that they’re not wise enough to select figures of authority.

    1. Those stupid Democrats just spread the covid and will probably be responsible for killing hundreds of other people so you’re supporting killers.

  2. You go Texas Democrats! THERE IS POWER IN PRAYER AND POWER IN UNITY. WE ARE UNIFYING IN RIGHTEOUSNESS. WE ARE BACKING OUR TEXAS DEMOCRATIC LEADERSHIP.

    1. Raising the funds to BRIBE the Republicans in the Senate (and a couple of the Democrats) would be far more effective.

  3. Galatians 6:9
    “And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up.”

  4. Does Beto know that while he’s fighting against a fictional villain, in Cuba elections are illegal?

  5. Infinitely more important than showing ID, is being mindful of the person COUNTING THE VOTES as what happened in Georgia…

  6. I didn’t see the next SENATOR from Texas, as Rev. Al accidentally (or was it)! called her on his Weekend Show! I’ve been suggesting Jasmine Crockett run for Senate… then Pres after President Harris’ 2 Terms are ending! I hope she’s Ok! I’ve learned even MORE about the newest Restrictions than i thought i already read about! The repugs are just RUTHLESS! SENATE, DO-YOUR-JOBS and Pass H4 and H1/S1

  7. NOTHING CAN STOP THE VOTER INTEGRITY BILL!!!!!!!!!!!! All these ingrates are doing is prolonging the inevitable!!!!!!!!!!! TEXAS WANTS THIS BILL TO PASS!!!!!!!!!!!!

  8. Y’alls EXCUSES are ridicules!! Everything she said is EXACTLY what THEY did during the 2020 election!!! NOT what is happening now!!!!!
