Voter suppression is on the rise. Again. And unsurprisingly, it’s Republicans who are doing it.

I would like to point out that, this isn’t Russia doing this. It isn’t China. These aren’t Russian bots. These are Republican politicians and the disproportionately white voters who very reliably support their draconian policies.

In the 2016 election Republican legislators enacted racist voter ID laws, then they closed down driver’s license offices near black communities so that the required ID was harder to get, they closed down record numbers of polling places in black neighborhoods, they used the Supreme Court to gut the Voting Rights Act, they purged thousands of eligible, legally registered black people from voter rolls, they used gerrymandering to dilute the vote of black people, and Republicans continue to use mass incarceration as another indirect means of voter suppression.

I’ve said it before and Imma keep on saying it: Republicans are a bigger threat to progress, social justice and democracy than any foreign power could ever hope to be.
