  1. Baseless voter fraud claims: the on-going republican effort to undermine democracy, just like good fascists do.

  2. The bullies are back. Believe me, they just aren't smart enough to stay out of trouble.

  3. what kind reporting is thatโ€ฆ? Where could this end?

  4. The republiKKKlan objective is to replace with right-wing election staff!

  5. With todays republican election officials doing this there is without question ulterior motives involved and I would trust ABSOLUTELY ZERO ELECTION RESULTS under their control!!! When you have nutcases boasting that they will Install whoever they want in an election regardless of who truly WINS BY POPULAR VOTE TALLY you best believe them!!

  6. The Republicans are playing so ugly and so dirty

  7. Republicans fault ban guns now gop sucks

  8. It's a shame they resigned. Too bad they played into the dictatorship intentions.

  9. They quit and someone who doesnโ€™t care about the integrity of democracy will take their place. If we let bullying win and we all loseโ€ฆ

  10. ~POPULAR SITCOM CANCELLED~
    Producers have decided itโ€™s finally time for the Series Finale of the politically incorrect comedy show โ€œTHE MAGA REPUBLICANSโ€ which ran for 6 seasons. Now in a disappointing 7th season, viewers are saying it has lost all its charm. Recent revelations of scandals by the child actors have tainted its popularity and ratings have tanked. Producers are developing a new show with a new lineup going in the direction of a drama.

  11. All the knowledge in the universe at our finger tips and people latch on to rumors from social media.

  12. It will stop when you track back to the nasties who are sending them . Cowardly little petty shitheels.

  13. Why are republicans always trying to cheat!

  14. Republicans are truly destroying our great nation.
    They spread hate, violence, fear and lies to American people.

  15. Same Lindsey Graham March and band U2.โ€ฆ Georgia South Carolina USA Alabama surfing ๐ŸŒŠ Ireland public broadcasting

  16. World in Pink 90 yr old voice change Air force saint Patrick to 1983 births transplants blue angels

  17. led = past tense of the verb "to lead"
    lead = chemical element with the symbol Pb and atomic number 82
    FUN WITH HOMONYMS

  18. Improper use of " those can't tell what they are new walnut forever young news people getting smarter and younger every day world in pink

  19. under-educated whyte republicans bulky their way to enforce klan politics. losers

  20. No longer able to spell

  21. "I pledge allegiance to the flag" yes you do happy I could tell you the word cbs 19 Huntsville Alabama

  22. Republicans are trying to take over the country. Nazis

  23. Gerrymandering & attacking the integrity & safety of mail-in voting is how the GOP is hijacking elections.

  24. The danger is that they might be replaced with corrupt officials that fully enjoy corruption

  25. So they run away before they got caught ? Is that what I am hearing?

  26. Republicans are the dumbest people on the planet.

  27. Why? You insist on holding elections on a work day. You limit the number of polling stations. You therefore constrain the ability of people to exercise their constitutional right to vote (which of course is the intent). Mail in ballots are actually used as much if not more by Republicans and itโ€™s standard practice in other jurisdictions. The evidence of fraud is so minor as to be risible.

  28. And so thereโ€™s a vacuum and guess who thinks they might fill it?

  29. ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸTrump 2024 ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ
    Trump must be GOD.๐Ÿ•‡๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ..saving America from Obamas madness and socialism…Putin would NEVER have invaded Ukraine if Trump was Potus
    ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ

  30. They'll do whatever they can to destroy, divide for a one party, no government ruler. We should round them all up, and let them go fight for Putin, because that's what they're aspiring to, Russia not America.

  31. "People think the election s was stolen"

    Fox news "the election was stolen"

    "People think the election is stolen"

    Fox news "the election was stolen"

    Notice a pattern right?

  32. Exactly what the Republicans wanted them to do, so now they can replace them with people who will actually commit fraud for the Republicans, just like the GOP trainers that told poll workers to break the rules during the online training sessions, which were recorded, and exposed their willingness to committ voter fraud.

  33. "It seemed incredibly important for us to stay at our jobs, so we all decided to quit."

  34. Funny when idiots with no integrity question people with real integrity. Then they quit like cowards to let the wolves in the henhouse. Grow a backbone with your integrity stupid..

  35. And once again the Republicans don't have evidence of voter fraud other than the words of a man who lost the election. (Pretty unreliable source don't you think?)

  36. I hope those rural voters can't register to vote in our "rigged" elections.

  37. When you are dealing with the grand lie, things seem to spiral down. When I hear that someone stood on the principles and resigned, I wonder is this leads to spiraling down with the game of replacing them with people who don't stand on the principles.

  38. They weren't baseless claims…

  39. THEY WANT THEM TO QUIT!. THESES SHENANIGANS WILL NOT WIN ELECTIONS!. #FULLSTOP

  40. A "national conversation that's going on ?"
    ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚

  41. People see what your GOP is doing. America is not really America anymore.

  42. Whaaaaat?! Republicans trying to overthrow democracy because they're whiney babies?! Nooooooooo!

  43. The party of Lincoln has become the party of John Wilkes Booth.

  44. The sad thing about democrats is they are so lost and evil that I believe there is no coming back. They think itโ€™s ok to give puberty blockers to young kids, put masks on kids, experimental vaccines, drag queen story hour, no cash bonds for criminals, they love antifa and blm hooligans etc. EVERYTHING thatโ€™s agains American values the democrats are for. ๐Ÿ˜ข

  45. They will be replaced with people of no integrity.
