    The U.S. Justice Department will file a lawsuit on Friday challenging a Georgia election law that imposes new limits on voting, saying that it infringes on the rights of Black voters, Attorney General Merrick Garland said. The Georgia law, which also bans the distribution of water or food to people waiting on long lines at polling places, is one of a wave of new measures passed by Republican-controlled state legislatures this year, fueled by former President Donald Trump's false claims that his November election defeat was the result of widespread fraud. "This lawsuit is the first of many steps we are taking to ensure that all eligible voters can cast a vote," Garland told a news conference. "We are scrutinizing new laws that seek to curb voter access and when we see violations of federal law, we will act." The lawsuit is the first of many actions the department plans to protect Americans' right to vote, Garland said. It will also be offering new guidance on post-election audits, following a wave of challenges to the results of the 2020 supporters by Trump supporters, and issue the FBI and federal prosecutors new directions to prosecute threats to election workers. After a sweeping Democratic-sponsored bill aimed at protecting access to the ballot died on a party-line vote in the Senate this week, President Joe Biden vowed to take other steps to protect voting rights. The Georgia law, signed by Governor Brian Kemp on March 25, tightened absentee ballot identification requirements, restricted ballot drop-box use and allowed a Republican-controlled state agency to take over local voting operations. President Joe Biden, who became the first Democratic presidential candidate in three decades to win Georgia, has staunchly criticized Georgia's new law...........The Dems of the US Senate wanted to allow an electric bill as a form of voting ID, get freaking real! An illegal can an electric meter turned on for a month just to get an electric bill statement in the mail, then vote, heck no! In Alabama, one can get a free state issued ID to show at the voting box. Politicians, people handing out food, drinks, or money can't be within so many feet of the front door, a wise law. Georgia has a problem of Dems calling themselves different non political organizations to help voters to vote, handing out water for an example, to promote Democrats. To vote absent here in Bama, the double envelopes, signing everything and additional steps is a good thing to prevent voter fraud. It does take effort to vote, just proves that certain groups are to darn lazy and trying to gain Marxist Black Power.

      Merrick Garland, and the Department of Injustice are going to do their devoted best for the Marxist movement.
      If you're not outraged, you're not paying attention!

        DOJ can't do squat over any State laws such as this. Dems are promoting garbage again to get the low information crowd (Rush) to vote for them. This is what you get when you put liberals in charge.

        All for show is all this is. Dems believe if you tell the same lie enough, it will become true.

          The policeman that is charged with murder in the death of George Floyd will be sentenced today. Experts say he'll get 20 to 25 years. We'll see.

          George Floyd has been fentanyl free and clean of all other drugs, sober and has clean arrest record for 396 days, and counting. There's that!

            I'm glad of George's real deep turn around, real deep like 6 foot......I think I know how the attorney screwed up. He could not say that the knee was on the neck, and argues that the knee was never on the neck. If the attorney would have argued that the knee could not have blocked both arteries, I think the sentence of 22 1/2 years would have never happened.

              The protests last year weren't for America though. This isn't relevant to the Veterans Day argument though, as they were (mostly) not soldiers and didn't renounce their citizenships. The 1/6 incident also wouldn't be the same as the CSA either for the same reasons.

                Speaking of 1/6, have they ever figured out who murdered Ashli Babbitt and why?

                  The protests weren’t for America??? Somebody forgot to tell CNN.

                  And then of course all of those signs, shirts,takeovers of city blocks etc weren’t for America either……even though all those things I mentioned claimed they were.

                  You know, defund police and make American cities a better place and all of that?
                  Where is the move over flag when you need it?????

                        In reference to Veterans Day the nut case weirdo's can PC it up any way they want. Myself and my family will honor and revere all those who served and sacrificed for a cause they believed was worthy of their dedication of life and limb. Couldn't care a bit less what the indoctrinee's feel about it or what they bully politicians and corporations into doing.

                        What is much more important to me personally is the revelations of who and why an unarmed U.S. Air Force Veteran who served 12 years in various capacities was murdered. By all accounts she was murdered execution style. Why do you suppose the identity of the murderer is being concealed? Shouldn't Ashli's murderer be subject to the same fate as the policeman charged and convicted in connection with the death of George Floyd? Doesn't Ashli Babbitt's family not deserve justice?

                        Ashli Babbitt was not all jagged up on fentanyl and had no prior criminal convictions, as opposed to George Floyd. She hadn't held a loaded gun to the pregnant belly of a woman during a home invasion and robbery. She had not been convicted of aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon and numerous theft and drug charges.

                        Is it because she was caucasian and a Trump voter that her life is not worth exacting justice for? I wonder.

                            No state should be allowed to have so few polling stations as to created multi hour lines. Nobody should ever have to wait more than ten minutes in line at a polling station. Other countries don't have this issue.

                              Ashli Babbitt was attempting to rush a protected politician. I saw the video.
