Black People Politics : Democratic Rep. Beatty arrested while calling for Senate action on voting rights

...
Excellent question and answwer Robert :facepalm:

The Democrats’ proposed For the People Act admirably takes on both parts of the coalition. It sets minimum national standards for voting, and it seeks to get big money out of politics through public financing of election campaigns.
Yet this comprehensiveness may explain why the Act is now stalled in the Senate. Biden and Democratic leaders are firmly against white supremacists but are not impervious to the wishes of wealth supremacists. After all, to win elections they need likely Democrats to vote but also need big money to finance their campaigns.




Why isn’t Joe Biden doing all he can to protect American democracy?


...would do everything in their power to stop Republicans from undermining democracy.

Republicans are trying, again, to destroy a presidency. Will Biden and Democrats stop them?

If Biden and Democrats think Black people will repeat 2020, think again


Black people cannot save a party unwilling to use the power Black people gave them in the first place. This is not the 1960s, and we are not going through this again.
