So none of us actually know exactly what was in it?
Apparently neither did the witless who stopped the bills.
Mueller Feared Election Tampering Is ‘New Normal,’ GOP Helps Ensure It Is
“
Hyde-Smith blocked all the bills without giving an explanation for her action or stating if she made the motion by herself or on behalf of her party. Though a motion to block is a minor obstacle to a bill’s passage, The Hill notes: “Election interference bills face an uphill climb in the Senate, where Republicans aren’t expected to move legislation through the Rules Committee, the panel with primary jurisdiction, and have warned about attempts to ‘federalize’ elections.”
Senate Intelligence Committee vice-chairman Mark Warner condemned Hyde-Smith’s motion: “Mueller’s testimony should serve as a warning to every member of this body about what could happen in 2020, literally in our next elections.” Without updated laws in place requiring a campaign to report contacts like that of Trump-Russia in 2016, it’s quite possible that at least one campaign could flirt with foreign intelligence all over again. (Namely, the one whose candidate recently told George Stephanopoulos that if foreign agents “have information, I think I’d take it.”)”
Also, as others have noted above....
Senate Republicans are refusing to vote on any election security bills
No link to the actual bills but a sixteen second soundbite taken out of context that has absolutely nothing to do with the topic at hand.... makes sense.
For a conservative....but not for us who are on the side of reason, facts, sound economy, strong national defense, and honorable dealings outside and within our nation. I.e. for us progressives.
Try to get some facts kid, and keep up, eh?
As to the title of this thread: Yes. The GOP has forsaken all American citizens except for their dreamed of aristocracy, and are willing to dive to any depths in their own swamp-slime to gain power. For them, might makes right, and victory uber alles.
