#NH #NHGOP #Republicans #extremists

Hello NH. When you elect a #Republican politician, you get crap like this.

#Restrictive NH #voting laws costs the State money, create confusion, #target #married #women and accomplish nothing, as there's never been a case where a non-citizen has voted in the State.

There have been a number of #vote #Fraud cases, and the majority of those? Committed by Republicans. Of course.

GET TO THE POLLS. VOTE THE EXTREMISTS OUT.

Less than 100 days in, and #Republicans have wrecked the American markets and global trade.

Absolutely no one trusts of believes a single word coming from the WH, or the trained barking #congressClowns.

The #Republican Party, led by a swindler, convicted felon and known liar is about to crank up the deficit.

The #GOP supports #Trump no matter what, because they're either complicit or too chickenshit to stand up against the bedlam.

This is what they call "#conservative" today.

#VotingRights experts have described the issues raised by Judge Griffin as moot because even if the voters’ registration forms were missing driver’s license numbers, state law still requires them to show ID when they vote.

Questions about those *omissions* had spread in conservative circles for more than a year, & were teed up for use by #Republican political strategists well before Judge Griffin’s loss in November.

The #Republican challenger, Judge Jefferson Griffin, who currently sits on the #NorthCarolina Court of Appeals, has instead embarked on an extraordinary monthslong effort to toss out scores of ballots.…

Griffin’s challenge has ping-ponged through federal & state courts. The Democratic incumbent, Justice Allison Riggs, appealed a recent State #SupremeCourt decision that could lead to thousands of #military & overseas ballots being tossed.

Another #Republican #TownHall descends into chaos over #Musk and #Trump’s #DEI policies

"Only those who pre-registered and provided a valid ID for Donalds’s town hall were permitted to attend."

"Florida Representative #ByronDonalds faced hundreds of his constituents on Monday during a contentious town hall filled with boos, jeers, cheers and shouting – the latest Republican to field aggressive questioning in the public forum.

"Donalds, a close ally of President Donald Trump, defended the administration’s policies and positions as he fielded confrontational questions about Elon Musk, the Department of Government Efficiency, the #Israel#Hamas conflict, diversity, equity and inclusion, and more.

"However, he struggled to get through answers as audience members interrupted him several times to boo or shout at him."

"Before the town hall had ended, nearly half of the crowd had walked out, according to Gulf Coast News, while many others had been escorted out by deputies."

It’s not just that #GOP lawmakers are not calling for #PeteHegseth’s ouster (with one notable exception); it’s that they don’t even seem interested in getting to the bottom of the readily apparent discord in the #Pentagon.

And perhaps most tellingly, #Republican elected officials have again shown almost no interest in asserting themselves even as the situation entails one of the gravest issues under their purview, #NationalSecurity.
