“... Everything is geared toward the concept of ‘it doesn’t make any difference if people get infected. It’s a waste of time. Masks don’t work. Who cares,’ and the only thing you need to do is protect the vulnerable, like people in the nursing homes.”
“But to say, ‘Let people get infected, it doesn’t matter, just make sure people don’t die’ — to me as a person who’s been practicing medicine for 50 years, it doesn’t make any sense at all.”

Well, 96% are covered and it disproportionately affects the old and disabled in the UK.
In the US, 89% are covered. 75% of Blacks are covered, and 84% each of 18-24 and 65+. We have much larger gaps in who has ID, which also happens to vary by state. (Brennan center)

Nice try…
The queen is not responsible for the speech she gives before Parliament each year. The speech is written by ministers and sets out the elected government’s legislative agenda for the year ahead. The voter ID proposals are the views of Boris Johnson’s government and not the Queen. The monarchy remains strictly neutral with respect to political matters in the U.K. and doesn’t even vote in elections.
But yeah, keep pushing your lies…

Take it up with the Republican State Leadership Commission who tweeted this.
I'd agree with you that Republican politicians are aggressive liars though.

I don’t get the voter id thing. Something like 70% of African Americans support it, 76% of Americans support it. Studies suggest it doesn’t have an impact on voter turnout. Not sure how you can call something with 70% African American approval Jim Crow

7 states have strict id laws. Are you saying everyone else isn’t stringent enough?
Has it not been stringent enough for your entire life? We have to pass new laws? For what?
You have to show id to buy ciggs, booze, close on a loan, rent a hotel room, but certain over the counter meds, and even to renew your drivers license. I see no reason why you shouldn’t have to show id to vote.

Not that surprising... they tried to install an autocrat on Jan 6th... very monarchy like.

The Queen runs nothing.
