Absolutely no reason we shouldn't do what many other civilized countries do.

In Peru, each ballot requires a fingerprint. Easy. Prevents multiple votes. Prevents the dead from voting.

In India, all voters must show ID. Simple. Prevents people from voting under other people's names. Billions of folks with these IDs. No excuse for "race".

Fingerprints are racist!

Do you know how hard it is and what you have to go through to get a fingerprint??!!?!!

I agree 100%. But 1600 of the 80-some k they removed is an attempt at political momentum from a leftoid judge. The end result is that maybe a couple hundred of those are actual fraudulent votes. Practically, it's not going to be a big impact.

Until we get actual election integrity changes, this BS will continue. I'll take the little wins where I can.

So I read that WSJ article that's making the rounds right now about Elon Musk's discussions with Putin. It seems to be a lot of generic statements, and not a lot of specifics actually linking his actions with his conversations with Russia. It tries to connect his talks with Putin to him disabling Ukraine's ability to use starlink to attack Russian bases. It also tries to connect his "talks" with Putin with his asking for peace in Ukraine and his disagreeing with monetary aid to Ukraine. Again, the WSJ has no definitive link between the alleged conversations and Musk's actions. There is no specific information presented in the article about what they actually talked about in these alleged conversations, except for Putin's favor asking Musk not to deploy Starlink in Taiwan. The article tries to imply that request influenced Musk's decision in not providing starlink services in Taiwan, which is blatantly false. The actual reason why Starlink wasn't deployed in Taiwan is because of a Taiwanese law regarding ISPs requiring majority ownership in a local entity, which Musk understandably balked at. The gaslighting in this article is insane. Below is a snippit from a NYT article:

Therefore, the article just seems like a hit piece against Musk. It's really annoying to me that Bill Nelson, NASA's administrator, is calling for investigations into Musk simply based on this vague article.

It's also interesting to me that the article states that the information comes from intelligence sources. So this seems to be a selective leak from within the actual deep state in an attempt to smear Musk. Pretty disgusting, but these are the exact same tactics they tried to use against Trump, and failed.

You may think right now but both sides have pulled it out when they feel desperate. Obama has been called it since at least 2008

NASA is basically a failed experiment at this point.

Le’Veon….is Trump an authentic guy??

Solid GOLD!!! - “I had fought, I had played in big football games – playoff, regular season, Super Bowls – I’ve never had a feeling I had two days ago at that rally when I was behind that mic in front of America,” Bell said in his post. “Maybe more than just America, bro. I was in front of millions of people, bro.”

Almost no one can. There are books written just trying to describe the characteristics. Anyone that has a simple definition of fascism most certainly doesn’t know. One characteristic that‘s missing is that fascism is a rightist reaction to communism, a situation that does not apply us currently.

The thing the left doesn’t recognize is the close linkage between the state and big business. We conservatives usually call democrats communists. But pure communism has the state owning the means of production. Under fascism, the one party state has a very cozy relationship with biggest companies. The state selects the winners among big businesses based on who supports the regime most faithfully and gives sweetheart deals to those companies. The state in turn uses its power to crush the smaller competitors of those companies and to protect their monopoly. There is a reason IG Farben, Volkswagen, and Krupp all prospered under Nazism.
And that is exactly what the American uniparty does in regards to America‘s biggest multinationals and tech giants (and why Musk got blackballed).
So I feel the modern American left is actually much closer to fascism than communism, especially when you factor in their penchant for censorship and legal persecution of opponents.
