Dehydration nation. Water is now a controlled substance, lest it be used to perpetrate "voter fraud". If it's good enough to inflict on Georgia voters, why not do the same for Florida???

No doubt they will be arresting any non-white voters on bogus excuses. The GOP can only win by suppressing the vote

the distinctive uniforms designed for the NAZI SS.

When asked about the cost of such uniforms, Gov. Deathsantis smiled and responded that he is saving Florida money by using the original design approved by Heinrich Himmler and having the garments made in the state prisons.

Prison-made Panama hats will be integrated into the original SS design, in order to provide more of a "Banana Republic"" vibe. What more could a Florida autocrat ask for?

would try to stand in the way of American citizens voting, and yet.......................

They began starting to realize in 2000, that the only way they could win was by corruption.
Now they have rolled it out as a major push of their party to corrupt any and all elections in their direction.......

THEY HAVE FULLY REALIZED THAT THEY CANNOT WIN IF THEY DON'T CORRUPT THE ELECTIONS............

I remember when Obama took office. I thought one of his first major items would be giving the FEC and FBI free reign to straighten out the voting in America, including especially the EIS voting machines...........and yet here we are...........
