Unintended consequences 101 from the Party that just doesn't fucking think things through. Not to mention that the States determine voting requirements.

So I heard a good response to why the Republicans will want the Save Act to fail.

According to the Save Act, your birth certificate and current name must match, which means that women will be at a disadvantage. Our side is worried about this because it will directly affect women who married and changed their names. The only sure way around this is if you have a passport ID.

But some astute person on the net says that this is unfavorable to the Republicans, because more Democrats than Republicans carry a passport. The blue States, in other words, will be impacted less than the Red States, which will, in essence, disenfranchise their own trad wives.

Interesting to think about, anyway.

5. I hope this is true and the SAVE ACT dies a miserable death

The whole idea is just another plan to reduce women to second-class citizens firmly under the thumb of the men in their lives. Less higher education, early marriages from which there is no escape (tighten up divorce law) and grinding out as many babies as possible. No contraception. No abortion, of course. And no way to vote scum-bags out of office.

Happy Days!

And we have parallels in so-called peace talks around Ukraine and Palestinians. It could be put that both those peace talks are a
sham. A cover for Russia gaining more territory in Ukraine, and a cover for Israel/the Trump family gaining more territory in Gaza.
