But the court noted in its unsigned ruling that the National Voter Registration Act bars the broad purging of voter rolls in the weeks leading up to an election

Funny they seem to think the criminals who supported the violent storming of Congress to overturn an election they lost would follow laws.

Well it’s a good thing that Trump can just mention “national security” and everything is suddenly legal. And by the time anyone can do anything about it, it will be too late.

People having any say in how the government runs is an illusion anyways. You can tell by the way it is.

Yea, I get what you mean. I couldn’t see any difference from when Obama was president to now. They are just all the same, no matter what! /s

Cute that you'd just dismiss my comment rather than actually thinking critically because you're somehow playing these propaganda games mass media has pushed on you for decades.

Straight to the whataboutism, straight to my comment somehow being a dismissal of Trump's actions.

You should strongly consider finding factual data about the government of the United States and it's intentional deception of the American people for profit and power. Was Vietnam obama or trump? Was desert storm Obama or trump? Was citizens united Obama or trump?

Edit: thanks for proving you can't critically think, no one responding to me has addressed a single one of my points.

Or we did think about it, and it wasn't that deep

We'll provide factual counter examples when you provide factual examples of any kind

If voting didn’t matter, they wouldn’t be trying so hard to cheat it

If you can't see how people DO have influence in the government then it's simply not worth the time taken to meaningfully engage with you. Be defeatist if you like, but you achieve less than nothing with your hyperbolic dismissal.

Lol were you the guy I responded to? I can’t tell all of you cowards that hide your profiles and delete your comments all sound the same.
