The Republican response to mass shootings and murders by police will be to make guns easier to get

That’s what they want to do and I’m afraid that the Supreme Court will help them this year.

America has had 147 mass shootings in 2021 alone.

Texas wants to make it even easier for people to carry guns.

Madness.

This still won’t move Republicans in Congress

Two policies that would restrict access to guns garner clear majority support from both Republicans and Democrats: preventing those with mental illnesses from purchasing guns and subjecting private gun and gun show sales to background checks. https://t.co/YcGaNbfBUT pic.twitter.com/JpKJ1CDjfw

The US has many more shootings than other countries but doesn’t have a higher rate of mental illness.

The majority of Americans support voting rights

The Republicans are out of step with the country as a whole with their voter suppression bills.

Pew poll:

61% of Americans support automatically registering all eligible citizens to vote

70% support allowing people convicted of felonies to vote after serving their sentences

78% support making early, in-person voting available for at least two weeks prior to Election Day

Somewhat worrying numbers on vaccine hesitancy from the new Axios/Ipsos poll.

56% of US adults say they've gotten at least one vaccine dose already—great!

The Trump cult will never admit Biden won a fair election

This total disregard of facts is terrible for our country.

Nearly half (45%) of @GOP voters say the Jan. 6 insurrectionists "had a point" when they violently attacked the United States Capitol.

Almost 8-in-10 Republicans (78%) are still convinced Joe Biden stole the 2020 election. https://t.co/bVANs4SJrI

Amazing poll on election fraud vs. voter suppression

The fraud issue is made up. Voter suppression by Republicans is real. This shows how big the divide is between the two parties. Unity will not be possible with splits like this where one side believes nonsense.

Which do you think is a bigger problem in US elections: voter fraud or voter suppression via Quinnipiac poll:

Democrats:
84% suppression
13% fraud

Republicans:
11% suppression
82% fraud

Republican support for tougher guns laws drops

Let’s see: Many of them think the election was stolen, many won’t take the COVID-19 vaccine and now they won’t do anything to prevent mass shootings. It’s amazing that Republican support for gun safety laws has actually gone down even though there were two mass shootings within a week.

Republicans are a big threat to future of our country now. They are out of step with the majority of the country but their power in Congress and the states can hold the rest of us back. It won’t matter how many people support tougher laws. Republicans have gotten so much money from the NRA that they will never do anything to cross them. Remember when Trump talked about doing something about guns? He always backed down after talking with the NRA.

Vaccine polls update 3/5/21

More people are willing to get the vaccine. Republicans are still lagging but Trump could have done something to help if he had gotten his vaccination publicly. Republicans are a real obstacle to ending the pandemic – they oppose funding and many won’t take the vaccine.

NEW: Almost one-third of Republicans tell pollsters they ‘definitely won’t’ get vaccinated — a number that isn’t budging.

Widespread support for Biden’s American Rescue Plan

Once again, Republicans are voting strictly on party lines to hurt Biden instead of doing something even the majority of their voters want.
