143 Days June 12, 2020June 12, 2020 Blame the Georgia voting debacle on John Roberts and Mitch McConnell. The first gutted the Voting Rights Act of 1965; the second refuses even to debate House-passed legislation that would, in effect, restore it. As noted yesterday, Barr is the worst attorney general in our nation’s history. His handling of the Mike Flynn case is yet more proof. Have you got Republican friends who need a little support to sever ties to their leader? Send them this! But if they’re black, it may do no good — Trump is beloved by African Americans (he says). One hundred forty-three days, and counting. And then ten weird, potentially disastrous weeks. And then we get to see whether Trump hands off power with the same grace and dignity as Obama. Have a great weekend.
