I'm Asian, a legal immigrant, and a US citizen! I want voter ID, nothing is racist about asking for ID.
@Jordan Issaquah it is just common sense if you need a ID to get on a plane, cash check why shouldn't you need one to vote?
@Jordan Issaquah you are missing the point. Its about mainting the integrity of the election process. Think of it this way your vote was cast and someone casts it for you (by the way is fraud and is a felony) and its not what you wanted to vote for; should "your vote" that was cast ILLEGALLY because an ID wasnt required to prove who you are be counted? I'm gonna go out on a limb and say "NO" it shouldn't count. But yet here it is done and completely legit all because PROOF wasnt provided showing that it was in fact YOU who was there and casting the ballot YOURSELF. If people are allowed to vote as a US citizen then they should; BUT only if they can prove that they ARE.
you would think that way because you are a beneficary of a system others were excluded from even when they had id so if you dont know the history stop thinking right you did not build america the excluded and exploited did.
You need ID to buy a cigarette or a beer but not to vote an elected official in office. Only thing racist about today’s times is how much they talk about racism. They talk about it more than it actually happens.
@@jeffreyanderson8009 oh really nothing was racist when there wasnt civil rights and everything was all white full of f shit
Producing an ID to vote is NOT racist. Suggesting that an entire group of citizens somehow cannot obtain an ID from their state is absurd and rather insulting.
Claiming ethnic minorities can't acquire ID is quite racist.
It's called "soft racism" when one says a certain group is inherently not as capable as another of doing every day things. On what do they base that premise?
Yes they can & it's not limited to a driver license ID. There ARE State IDs
some people are just too dumb to see that democrats use race to divide us, just like dividing us on religion, vacc. and non vacc . they use it as tools to dvide and control people
Lol they don’t realize they’re being the racist ones by implying that non-Whites are less likely to have ID. The thing is though, they know this because they look at stats and the reality is that most non-Whites don’t have ID’s but that’s not racist or an example of White supremacy LOL. No one is preventing non-White citizens from getting an ID, they’re choosing not to but do you see the other point I’m about to make? They say it’s racist cuz they know based on stats that non-Whites are less likely to have ID’s and then project racism onto the people who want to require ID’s for voting.
However, if I acknowledge another stat, like the fact White demographics are shrinking, I’m now a racist? 🥴
Lol Democrats and racist non-Whites are so stupid. They don’t realize that crying wolf was gonna get them to the point they’re at today.
Rise White man, RISE
Of course, like all who don’t have a valid reason, she doesn’t even answer the question as to how requiring voter id is racist.
Of course she skirted the issuec.Voter ID would close the door on illegals voting.
@@robertnielsen2461 Except in NYC local elections. The dems. are starting small. I realize you are talking about fraud.
@@robertnielsen2461 And in turn, get these evil demoncraps out of power.
@@toddthompson7068 IMO it's worse than that. When they managed to call Kyle racist, after shooting 2 white guys that attacked him, because they were there supporting BLM. I mean that's a freaking stretch. Everything is racist so I don't even react any more. The cried wolf too many times.
I think she was hearing words like "Federalism" for the first time. Suggesting that racism is afoot is one strategy to avoid a debate where one is clearly outmatched where facts are concerned.
In my experience I’ve never met someone who couldn’t “afford” an ID. I have met folks who didn’t carry or have ID because they had warrants.
If you have no ID you cannot collect welfare, SS or cash a check. Not sure how the poor could survive without one.
No one is required to own an ID. You are ONLY required to show police your ID if they have reasonable, articulable, suspicion that you have committed a crime. For example, a passenger in a vehicle who is wearing a seatbelt and doing nothing illegal can refuse to provide ID. Cops always ask for ID. It's a power thing, and they will object, lying to you, saying if a police officer asks (they usually say ask, because they can't demand) for your ID you have to provide it. WRONG.
@@patfranks785 cool story but you need an ID to do many things like fly, drive, buy alcohol, etc so I’d say voting is an ok thing to require. I question why anyone would REALLY want to push for NO ID. It’s antithetical to an actual accountable election process. And realizing how it opens UP the door to fraud, not less.
@@patfranks785 and that was a long post/argument for something I never actually said. Never said one is required to own ID. But sure makes life easier easier.
@@victorseaton9123 I agree with voter ID. I was just pointing out something most people don't know and the cops lie about all the time. The only reason I can think of against voter ID is to increase the possibility of fraud. Biden has already hinted if the voting bill isn't passed there may be fraud.
Every American citizen has a right to vote. Surely they need to prove that that are American Citizens and not imported illegal voters.
Which is why we REGISTER....that's where you have to prove your eligible....NOT AT THE VOTING BOOTH....
@@BatMan-iy1li you have to match who you are with your voter registration form. Duh...
@@BatMan-iy1li are you aware the you can get a voting register anywhere? i have even filled out a form with no ID required. i support the voter ID.
These Dems say surely not.
Not anymore. 2020 proves it.
It’s racist to imply that a person is not smart enough to get a ID!!!! 🤪
You're making too much sense with a statement like that lol
EXACTLY !!!!!
not if they are right
@Jordan Issaquah no one is saying that ..
@Jordan Issaquah everyone gets hurt when IDs are not being implemented in order to ensure a fair and safe election ID should be required. Look how bad the 2020 election was and how much doubt was cast over that. I went to vote and I could have cone back and voted twice using my brother name the never ask for a photo ID
In addition to voting, it is also a right to keep and bear arms in this country. In order to purchase a firearm, you must show ID and submit to a background check. The very simple requirements that Republicans want all citizens to adhere to when voting are: You must be at least 18 years of age, you’re registered to vote, you’re a citizen of the state you are voting in, and you must be alive when you voted. Pretty simple and logical requirements.
dont you see thats racist to ghosts
The right to bear arms was never supposed to be infringed upon, but look at all the laws there are. Each one of them is a infringement. I agree with some of the laws, but every single one is an infringement.
Hey what about my dog does it my dog have the right to vote to. And yes most gun laws are infringements on the Second Amendment. So if we have to show ID to buy a gun then we must show an ID to vote
@@jeffb8562 TBF, when the right to bear arms was written into law, the worst type of firearm someone might have would be what, a musket that can shoot twice per minute? Do you think if fully automatic 250 round LMG's were a thing, they would have said not to infringe upon those?
@@garyhamilton2104 did you know there was a full auto weapon that was in existence back then. However you want to talk about what was going the animals going on now well the First Amendment freedom of speech does not include the internet and electronic media it only applies to parchment and ink delivered by a courier on horse. The Second Amendment is there to ensure the citizens keep the government in check that's why we have the right to bear arms not certain arms arms plain and simple
It drives me crazy when they don't answer questions. Who holds these people accountable???
congratulations. you're now a member of the club.
Nobody holds anyone accountable in DC
• Rates of identification-ownership are highest among White individuals, while other ethnic groups disproportionately lack necessary photo ID. Thirteen percent of Blacks, 10 percent of Hispanics, but only 5 percent of Whites lack photographic identification.
• Lower-income individuals are less likely to have photo ID. Twelve percent of adults living in a household with less than $25,000 annual income lack photo ID, compared to just 2 percent in households with over $150,000 annual income.
• Young adults are less likely to have photo ID: 15 percent of 17-20 year- olds lack photo ID, and 11 percent of those ages 21-24 lack photo ID.

Talk about being evasive! That alone speaks volumes about her views!
She never answered anything.
She answered all questions relevant to the topic she was addressing, he was the one going off topic asking off topic questions almost like he was filabustering the time......
@@oatglaabacus really? Good Grief.
@@willwetherell7265 really what, charlie brown?
Same old story. Democrats deflect and dance around questions. Refusing to answer should be contempt of Congress.
I’ve actually seen a homeless guy show ID at a liquor store. C’mon lady we’re not buying your BS.
They Love them no ID Mail in Ballots ...Ask Joe ,if we Voted like in 2008 2012 2016 no way in Hell Biden would get 80 Votes ...
Why do they got to be like that.
The fact is that requiring Voter ID is in no way racist at all, unless you want to say that requiring ID to buy alcohol, tobacco, open a bank account, applying for any type of Gov't assistance, getting unemployment etc... that all these and many more activities are racist as well that require showing ID. The argument that it's racist is complete and total BS.
by itself, no requiring id is not racist, but i think the argument can go, voters id will likely include race in it. thus people guarding ballot boxes can utilize race against someone.
@@jadonbelezos2583i lost a brain cell reading that
The difference is that buying tobacco is a privilege, whereas voting is a citizen’s right. A citizen shouldn’t owe you shit in order to exercise their fundamental freedoms.
You need an ID, period.
If ID is so racist, why infringe on the constitutional right to purchase a firearm, by requiring ID to exercise that constitutional right?
What about ID for alcohol & cigarettes.... Also, when the cops pull people over and ask for driver’s license & registration? Nothing is racist about any of this.
Or requiring an ID to drive a motor vehicle? Requiring papers to fly in an airliner? A passenger train or a bus? At the very least you need a ticket and you have to pay for it. Isn't that racist?
Great point @ Observationist....and you gotta have ID to get Obamacare, FooStamps, Section 8 Housing, porn...this gal is beating a dead horse here. Remember the Chatty Cathy doll...pull her string and she automatically says the same mindless thing over and over. Well, it's back! When these people finally get convicted for crimes against Americans, their punishment ought the be having to listen to their own diatribe every night for as long as they live .
That was started to actually keep black people from getting guns, kind of like marriage licenses were to keep mixed race marriages.
The voter ID thing is from when they refused to give black people ID's to vote. Everyone in the USA is required to have ID. Even my preschooler has an ID. It's all evil corruption, but these people all believe it is ok and have no shame of it because the system sees it at normal political games.
@@glennso47 because none of those are a constitutional right (just stating a fact)
Is the black lady with a government job saying black people do not know how to get an ID? 🙄
Yup. But people can’t see thru. She is Insulting Black people (all Democrats are) 🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️
I definitely feel offended. Especially when I seen a video of white liberals saying we don't have access nor do we know how. My facial expression was 😳

@@antoniog4894 I can't even imagine how that would feel, so much is manufactured and labelled as racism but the real stinger is that the true racists get away with it it
@@mymindmythoughts8923 When I said WHITE LIBERALS, I speak of whites who vote Democrat, whom actually believe we don't know how nor have access🤦🏽. I know that both black and white POLITICIANS are spewing this lie, so you are not saying nothing I don't know. Black people who are not politicians don't claim this to be true.
"We wont know that until we actually look at the facts."
That just shut down the Dem's narrative right there. By that statement alone we should at least try Voter ID.
they'll complain and p&m I could not vote.
It’s crazy how everyone was miraculously able to find their id when they wanted to cash those stimulus checks. Crazy.
She is being asked questions that pertain to the position she was nominated for. The fact she can't answer them is because she isn't qualified for it.
She has smiled throughout her testimony as if she knows her position will be rubber stamped, which under the democrats it will be
Conservative christians used to call it the poll tax or literacy tests.
Look it up Trump bigots.
The QUESTION WAS- WHAT is racist about an ID.....
@@F_ckAllTrumpVoters Ooooo that stings coming from a Beta male.
@@nothereyetlost regardless, she hasn't answered any question to the rest of the ones that have asked her about voter's 🆔. I'm minority and can't figure out how the heck is it racist for asking for our 🆔 or how the hell is it supression. Seems to me people of color want to instill us the minority that everything is about race when it's not. She is the one suppressing us with that sick mentality
Mike Lee should`ve asked her "If requiring Voter ID is racist, isn`t requiring these same people to have vaccine passports/cards ALSO racist?"
what a toxic question, shame on you! ;^)
For the older generation and people making their first step into the internet: This comment is ironic. Welcome to the internet!
@@n.erdbeer Explain how it’s toxic.
Good one !
and in NYC you need a FUCKING ID along with the vax proof card!!! This is all a fuking sham!
As the GOP are all racists , isn't Lee a hypocrite?
I hate hearings like this. They never answer any questions. But, it is entertaining to see the art of dodging the question.
See her as she actually is, she needs the assistance of a guide kid to articulate a single thought coherently.
It was hilarious how he only "went over his time" when he wanted an explanation of how voter ID is racist lol. This was a very good articulation of why placing pre-requisites or pre-screening to state's laws are wholly unconstitutional.
A Deputy AG who says that the 2nd Amendment is not in her specialized area, so she won't comment on it. Wow.
Her specialized area is playing solitaire on a government owned computer?
First 10 Amendments are called the Bill of Rights. She's ALLEGEDLY Deputy AG for Civil Rights. This is SQUARELY in her area of alleged expertise.
keep in mind that cruz asked her if she participated in deliberation over parents protesting CRT in schools to which her response was "I can not talk about the deliberations and what went on in it" She beat around the bush on that using gobbledygook too to say yes without actually saying yes. Thats how gobbledygook works
@@lornelthaltmer Her gobbledygooking would tend to negate Congressional oversight, I'm thinking. Another grotesquely unconstitutional move. So much for Civil Rights.
And we wonder WHY there's SO much incompetence in govt.
SHEEEEEESH....Ger the hell out, lady!
You need an ID to virtually anything and everything legal in the entire world. Requiring an ID to vote isn't racist. It's smart!
my first time voting was in 202, I was confused when I was told to put my id away when they were asking who I was in MD. So no proof of who you are just provide name and address. How is that secure? Why couldn't someone just bring a group of 20 people and give them a name to say then vote in their name... why do they think there are so many people complaining in these election they were told they already voted?
There you done it! You just couldn't keep that secret in...
@@cranbers because, thats how it works now. You give them your real vote, but the first one is the only one that counts.
Exactly. I'm 66 years old and I was asked recently for a ID to purchase a pack of cigarettes. Even though I have pure white hair and wrinkles, I didn't argue and showed my I'd.
My husband has been dead for 10years. Every time I've voted I check to see if his name is on the register. It has appeared several times.
When I go to the bank to withdraw cash from my account the bank will ASK me to show a state or federal ID
Like seriously, has anyone met any grown person who didnt own any state issued ID, like really?

What should it tell us?

If needing to show ID is racist, why infringe on the U.S. constitutional right to purchase a firearm, by requiring ID to exercise that constitutional right, showing ID to buy a gun being an unconstitutional infringement that did not exist until the racist 1968 "Gun Control Act".
Even their radicals are this extreme.
@@obsey exactly!
Most of her answers seem to be "it's not an area I work in".
So what, exactly, does she do at the DOJ civil rights division?
pick her nose?
Not much. Basically hangs around collecting a check and if anyone ask here anything, she just tells them she does not work in that area.
well she does facebook at the DOJ civil rights division
She certainly seems to know a lot about very little. Tax dollars wasted, a long with half the rest of the swamp. I feel if you work for the DOJ in the civil rights department you shouldn't be paid to dodge questions as simple as that. A 15 year kid could have answered the question better than her dodging it like she's in a game of dodge ball. To participate in an election you should have to prove that you are an AMERICAN CITIZEN. I mean with all these illegal immigrants coming into this country I cannot help but feel the Dems are doing this purposely and intently. This is treason and needs to be acted on.
She's another swamp creature, that cherry picks her narrow ideas. Basically a Soros funded democrat.
Her logic only applies to her narrow situation and changes when applied else where, hence no logic.
It’s mind boggling how these people can not answer a simple question. A waste of the taxpayers money and ridiculous how they can get away with it
I want to know the same thing. I'm a Black man and I never had a problem getting Id.
Here in the Caribbean all registered voters must show an ID during an election. What is so wrong with this.When a police officer ask a person for their license they have to show it.
Same south africa
Same in Peru as a Latino brown man I feel offended when they talk about voter ID , of course we need ID to vote
The democrats use this tactic to get the 3.5 trillion package thru. In this package they want all voting rights to be controlled by the government, and not individual states. We are the United States of America.
before mail in ballet i had to show an ID before casting my votes at the polls. never was asked who i was voting for or what political party i was with or for. everything was privately done in a booth. no political talk was allowed inline. nobody was allowed to ask who there voting for. now voting is such a mess.
Exactly
I was shocked when I voted in 2020. When entering I tried to show my drivers license, and the older gentleman at the table looked at me like I was crazy and said "No we don't need to see that."
This is lunacy.
I am required to show a photo ID to vote in Alabama.
I have to show my ID to pick up my order from Home Depot.

@ian finney Exactly same as in Canada except you need the voter registration card that’s mailed to your address for each adult in the house hold along with your government issued ID, they would laugh at you if you didn’t have photo I’d.
I am required to show my ID to get a loan, rent a car, go to a football game, some concerts, cash a check, buy a cocktail, get a refund. I'm doing racism every day and didn't even realize it! Thanks Miss Clark!
SHE'S telling HIM what she's there to talk about. Pffft! I'd immediately shut down that type of thinking. Her responses are nothing but word salad.
Wow! So her answer is "we won't know". Without voter ID, non-citizens, deseased folks, folks who have moved to a different district, underaged, can call vote multiple time. I wonder if she came tell us all how its possible to have any honest and integrial election without Voter ID? Its not possible.

I’m sure they need ID to get welfare and food stamps.
@Jay Jonson I need to get on that. (And That Is not true lol)
Did you ask everyone already?
@Jay Jonson no, that's why I don't know if everyone has access to a government ID
@@jelsstylo4350 , Why in your opinion wouldn't someone have access to obtain a government ID? Why in your opinion, do Liberals/Marxists/SJW's think Black American's are uniquely incompetent as a group to obtain one?
After seeing what's going on in Australia, I've never cherished the 2nd amendment more in my lifetime, God Bless America...!
I agree. 2nd amendment is the only think keeping us from these monsters. They will come for guns
Coming to a town near you , AUS , UK and USA...
And now here and on fools book they've cut communication from au s and can a da.
Those guns are getting greased more and more each day.
@@enderesssam2616 Grease one up for me please as all I can do atm is slowly restock our toilet paper as they started limiting things again.
My state was told by the SCOTUS not use use an ID. We ignored them.
So we see the question, but no one ever has the unique character to actually answer the question: "What is racist about requiring identification to participate in elections that affect the citizens of the 'sovereignty?'" No one wants to get to that answer because, in FACT, there is NOTHING 'racist' about requiring identification. Remember, in the early days of our nation, ANYONE could vote until it was discovered that foreign nationals were voting for issues that had no bearing on them, but opened the door to further their particular national agenda, but in so doing, ended up trashing the true and good desires of the actual people that live and are citizens of this nation/state/city. Are you a citizen that is qualified to vote in our elections?..
Then, PROVE IT!
Racist?
Just NO!
It should be racist for the democrats to ask me to pay my taxes too
Exactly!
If having to show ID is so racist, why infringe on the constitutional right to purchase a firearm, by requiring ID to exercise that constitutional right, an unconstitutional requirement that did not exist until the racist 1968 "Gun Control Act".
If id is racist than Obamacare is jim Crow if one doesn't have id they cannot obtain health insurance if you don't obtain health insurance your subjected to fines from the government. And you have to show identification for the vaccine and they don't mind trying to get us to show vaccine cards.
VERY ASSERTIVE COMMENT.
Just become a Dumocrat then you don't have to pay any.
every American has access to id's ....show me one that doesnt...
@@davidhoward7691 and thats why all of a sudden id to vote is racist but id for any other reason is fine...
why can none of these nominees not answer a simple question!?
Will someone please bring an action against the feds regarding the disparate impact of taxes?
Why isn't requiring a drivers license, proof of insurance, vehicle registration, fishing & hunting license, gun owners permit, SSI card, health insurance card, etc., etc. racists'?
BECAUSE IT ISN'T.
Can’t cheat so easily if ID is required. And cheating is required by the Dems since their agenda is to destroy the USA.
ill try.... cause they want ANYbody (honestly, liberals and those pro big govt) to have the ability to change a law by vote. otherwise licenses for the ability to hunt, drive, fish they want controlled, tracked etc. cause they see voting as something theyll allow for people who dont have a deep seated belief in this countrys future, but they (the politicians) have a deep seated belief in controlling us in all activities where we as citizens conduct ourselves.
Why isn't it racist to assume minorities are too stupid to figure out how to get an ID? Because THAT'S the excuse used for why voter ID is racist.
@@Squidbush8563, that is what I keep telling people. Requiring an id to vote isn’t racist, however claiming that an entire people group cannot get an id because they can’t get a job, can’t keep a job, can’t find a department of licensing, can’t get on the internet, can’t figure out how to get a license, are the actual racists. If I was black and heard a woke white person say this, I would be way more offended than if they said I needed an id to vote.
Everything is racist when you don't have an answer that makes sense.
or climate change
OK, shit for brains, we'll just ignore the FACT that it has already been proven that voter ID laws can impact on voter turnout amongst minorities, and I'll try to lay it out plainly and simply for your thick little skull.
1. No one is saying that all voter ID laws are racist.
2. All that is being said is that SOME voter ID laws are racist, and that is a FACT.
3. She states very clearly that each law would have to be looked at individually to determine if it is racist or not.
Her answer makes PERFECT SENSE, unless of course you are an ignorant imbecile, which you clearly are, so I will give you an example of a racist voter ID law. North Dakota's requires an ID with a residential street address, but there are some Native Americans in North Dakota who live on reservations without an official street address, so they can't get an ID with a residential street address, so they can't vote, so that is a racist voter ID law.
Understand now Einstein?
@@philsurtees do you feel like a big man when you resort to insults and name calling you arrogant prick? If every law has to be looked st why do Democrats and liberals IMMEDIATELY cry racism for EVERY voter ID law? Because that’s all your tiny brains can come up with. By the way, why don’t you actually read the N. Dakota law instead of lying about it. “Tribal government issued identification (including those issued by BIA for a tribe located in North Dakota, any other tribal agency or entity, or any other document that sets forth the tribal member’s name, date of birth, and current North Dakota residential address)”. Residence, nothing about a street address moron. The Tribal government provides the necessary, LEGAL ID.
As typical of all these Senate hearings of late, we failed to get an answer to the question...
She's already jaded and totally comfortable with the spin

@@billythedog763 Not really. The concerns that brought people to vote for Trump are absolutely, objectively legit. You can debate the methods to tackle those concerns, but to act like border problems, immigration, rampant govt spending, and racist radical education are "bullshit" concerns is to just be fucking daft and frankly, not socially or mentally competent enough to even be involved in this discussion.
@@billythedog763 oh poor Billy. Lol
🤣🤣
lol Exactly!!!
I'm tired of this voting id crap. Shes dissing black people and us Latinos like we are too stupid.
You are exactly right! They play blacks and minorities off as too dumb and too poor to get their own ID’s. They throw you under the bus strictly to rig the next election.
Hey they r getting rid of gifted classes in ny because blk and Latinos cant hang.. That's not true..I wish Democrats would stop saying that..I would be offended
@@barbaraann6229 Maybe not, but she certainly did not answer the question she was asked.
Compassionate condescension from the Democrat party to secure their own power. I have as much contempt for them as they have for me.
so who the hell is voting for these Democrats?
Lack of understanding of how the country is structured, including states, is a failure of the public education system.
Just call their BULLS**T and Mandate ID and in person voting! Screw the cheaters!
Senator lee is a very knowledgeable Utah should be very proud to have him

“I work in civil rights, but only the ones that support our narrative.”
Civil right...the right of a civilian... Which includes all the rights he listed. But she doesnt know anything about those. 🙄
Right! They need to be harder on corrupt people.

This is in fact how most federal judges rule.
If they don’t answer the questions then they don’t get the job.
There is no Federally protected Right to Vote
She answered without saying anything, she'll fit right in.
Yup. One of the things I appreciated about Trump is that he demonstrated a business-like bluntness. "I can guarantee the project will be finished by Tuesday but I will need this and this by tomorrow 5pm to meet that deadline." Period. No spin.
Oh how I miss the bluntness.
I just thought the same
Fit right in
@@richardiredale4375 yeah, agree 100%. Problem is that bluntness makes people feel uncomfortable and pressured to give an answer. That's unacceptable in too many peoples eyes. Let me talk but not answer the question.
@@tombash4329 yeah, after how many failed attempts at running for office?
@@tombash4329 "Mandate victory"? nice freudian slip

These people have been COACHED to answer questions and to be evasive as possible on their answers. I say if they don't answer the questions then drop out for consideration for the position!
When you have a crony dichotomy you get two parties that perpetually avoid resolving the same basic issues.
Who has access to an ID? Anyone who applies! That's NOT racist! If the law applies to everyone, it can NOT be racist. You notice that their concern is about voting, NOT about the 101 other things we have to show ID for... those are apparently okay. If I have to show ID to drink a beer, I damn sure should have to show one to vote for our political leadership. Why is this still an issue?
Very True . If the law applies to EVERYONE how can it be racist ?
Amen this is a waste of time and money this word racist is used the wrong way
It's because the left can't cheat as easily if voter ID is required. That's what it's all about.
@@GypsysMom The LEFT - i.e. the Demonrats, whose native language is the lie.
The ability to get an ID requires certain things that poverty-stricken folks usually do not have..poverty is highest among people of color, and the GOP has taken advantage of that...why were these concerns about voter ID such a concern when Clinton lost and Trump won in 2016??? So, there is a correlation between the poverty-stricken and those of color who are impacted by the ID mandate...ID is a good thing, but those who cannot get ID are the ones who usually vote blue, and the GOP know that...that is why there is racism, albeit indirectly distributed..
Her qualifications are impeccable. She is very qualified to be a liberal lackey!
Or a librarian !!!
Great question... the great answer should always be 'nothing'.
That this is even being debated is beyond ridiculous. There is no violation of anyones rights asking them to prove whom they are and their eligibility to vote. What is wrong with these people?
It is illegal to reside in Georgia for more than 30 days without having a state issued ID card. I literally sat in jail with people who were arrested for not having ID. So how is voter ID suddenly a problem?
Your comment is brilliant.
So they can get illegals and nonexistent ppl to vote blue.
@@newagain9964 This is true
Georgia dumb lol
correct...and it's not a new law...around 30 years ago i was in a band out doing a photoshoot...we were somewhere we probably shouldn't have been (a railyard as the photog wanted a shot with train tracks...god knows why)...a policeman came to tell us we needed to leave (he was nice about it) and asked for our i.d,...the drummer was wearing spandex with no pockets so he didn't have his...instead of hauling him to jail the office explained that "if you are in public, you are required by law to have some form of photo i.d. otherwise you could be taken to jail until your identity can be confirmed"...so there's been a version of this for a few decades at least
As a black man it is NOT racist for us to be required to have ID. We must have ID to check into hotels, open bank accts, buy liquor & cigarettes, but not to vote? I am sick of all this racist foolishness because all races do what they want to do period!
Well said 👍
That is exactly how I feel. They are trying to say we are not smart enough to figure it out. So rediculas. They want their way because it makes it easier to cheat. 80% of American voters support having an I D. So where is the argument??
@brandee Williamson I am black with an IT degree so next 🤣🤣🤣
@@vandoraginther6421 I am glad you see it too because I have had an ID since I was 15 & I am in my 40's now. These people need to stop acting like Blacks can't do anything and black people need to stop playing stupid just for a handout that we will never get smh!
@brandee Williamson Completely pathetic. Your entire argument is fundamentally based on whether or not black are inherently lazy. Is that what you believe? Like you geneuenly believe black people are by nature incapable of solving problems.
Requiring ID to vote is raciest.
Requiring an ID to get a job, rent an apartment, have a bank account, obtain a credit card, receive unemployment, drive a car ect is not raciest
Why doesn’t anyone address the racism of lowered expectations?
I'm sick when it comes to everything about this administration. Let's hope these nominations don't make it through. Our government is screwed up enough without them.
Sadly we all know that these hearings are just for show because most of these radical liar are being appointed anyway. We also know that they are not being selected by Biden but by whoever is really running the country.
Start praying against this administration and everything they are doing and planning. 🙏
You can thank Sen Lindsey Graham for giving the Dems that 1 Republican vote they always need to pass these radical leftist nominees every time.
@@TheBunky2008 that's not Biblical. even the nation of Israel in the Bible had bad kings appointed by God. in Romans we are told that all authority comes from God, and is responsible to Him
@@dryjazz
Wrong. We are to pray against our enemies plans. Biden is definitely not a legit president. He's incompetent and he certainly wasn't appointed by God. He's not running thus country, he's a puppet paying back his dues.
He's a baby killer. I hope he repents of his crimes before it's too late.
The US absolutely needs to rebuild electoral trust. Relaxing voter requirements is not how you do that.
All the need is enough time to pack their courts so there is NOTHING you can ever do about it again. Unconstitutional? Won't matter so long as they have justices on the bench that will say whatever they put on the books is constitutional.
@UCIYHSLonHYzgEwcAg06K0Iw Real audits never happened, they were blocked at every turn. Georgia communists went to work ahead of the election to ensure a system to cheat was in place beforehand. Trump's policy talk? At least you could find the guy and he took actual questions. The truth eventually comes out, once it does will you care that they cheated or are you part of the group that has the "win at all costs" motto? Do you care than the entire "Russian interference" that they created chaos with was a complete fabrication intended to do just that?
The only people who think electoral trust needs rebuilding are gullible trumpists who believe the Big Lie.
@@klutch14u: Witness, the Charles Evans Hughes Supreme Court finding the "taxing" and "regulating" of a constitutional right to be "constitutional" in response to FDR's "sabre rattling" when he pushed for the passage of his 'Judicial Procedures Reform Act of 1937'; aka his "Court Packing Plan".
This was in response to the Court having found several of his 'New Deal' programs to be UNconstitutional.
The constitutional right the Hughes Court "ruled" could be "taxed" and "regulated"? The *only* one which the Founding Fathers wrote "shall not be infringed": the Right to Keep and Bear Arms in our Bill of Rights.
Both "taxing" and/or "regulating" that *Right* are *direct* "infringements" on that *RIGHT* !
The SCOTUS case which is the functional 'linchpin' of *ALL* gun control laws is 'Sonzinsky v. United States', 300 U.S. 506 (1937), where the Court used non-Bill of Rights-related earlier rulings as "justification" for their 'Sonzinsky' ruling. 🤨

These are such a waste of time honestly these people will never answer a question directly and always either run the clock down or skirt the truth.
its all for show, im trying to figure out whats the point of it, if like they make a compelling argument is something going to change or something? i dont get it.
“this isn’t an area that I work in” thats her answer for everything
That response suggests a lack of principles - only political expediency. Especially because she is super bright. It's not like she couldn't stop, think, and answer the questions.
