To place even more poignance onto this story, one of the schools that had its voting site taken away, North Carolina A&T, was very near where the first sit-in took place in 1960, when black students bravely refused to tolerate cruel Jim Crow segregation--a civil rights landmark.

GOP North Carolina officials approved eliminating two early voting sites on college campuses that hosted 12,000 voters in 2024, including one at HBCU North Carolina A&T State Univ, another ugly unpatriotic GOP attempt over the years to freeze out young & black voters. www.youtube.com/watch?v=weRt...

Let’s not forget that this illegal Reflecting Pool indictment was also overseen by Todd Blanche. He could have stopped this at any time, but he was a corrupt and willing accomplice to this fraud upon the court. How can any decent person possibly vote for this man as AG?

RFK: "You are saying nonsense." Bash: "I am not saying nonsense, excuse me?…This is not productive. " RFK: "You're talking nonsense…You were scaring people." Bash: "Why are you saying that?" RFK: "Because that was the job of CNN." Bash: "Okay, stop."
