It is incomprehensible this farcical assault on NC voters has been allowed to continue this long. Griffin, and through complacency, the NC Republican Party, has shown their disdain for North Carolinians.
In a filing Wednesday evening, Jefferson Griffin — the Republican candidate seeking to overturn the North Carolina Supreme Court 2024 election results — asked the state appeals court to disenfranchise more voters by expanding the number of ballots included in the state’s cure process.

Consider the egregious difference taken by this president.
When Andrew Tate was charged with rape and human trafficking, Trump intervened to fly him back to the US.
When a working-class father of a disabled 5-year-old child was wrongfully deported and charged with NO crime, Trump refuses to lift a finger.

“This does not just affect North Carolina,” Riggs said. “This is like dropping a match in a really dry forest. And if we let this kind of anti-democratic effort take hold, we will not be able to contain it. So this is a fight for the very soul of democracy. Today’s decision was deeply misinformed.”

And when you get to Clinton - He reduced the federal workforce by over 300,000 positions using a process that was thoughtful, transparent, and unquestionably legal and Constitutional. Congress approved it in advance (as they should) with bipartisan majorities in both houses. This is history.

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers.
This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.
