Steve republican Senator from
Steve republican Senator from
South Carolina TIM Scott, pushing
back against Democrats accusing
them of weaponizing race in
their criticism of Georgias
election laws.
You distort the facts so
terribly that youre willing
youre willing to bring back the
concept of a poll tax or
the concept of Jim Crow.
You dont weaponize race in
powerful and destructive ways
when so many people fought and
died so that I could be your
senator
strategist here with reaction,
Fox NEWS, contributor and civil
rights attorney hes. The first
guy up in LOS Angeles this
morning, LEO Terrell,
serious stuff that TIM Scott is
talking about how race is being
weaponized to further a
political agenda.
Joe Biden himself has
misrepresented the facts and in
fact the Washington Post, which
has been his Allie until now,
gave him
four pinnochios for lying about
whats in it.
It doesnt make a difference if
Joe Biden is telling the truth
Steve
its all about power,
TIM Scott is looking at the big
picture.
The Democrats want to pass HR 1,
which would make it national
mail in voting and takeaway. The
power from the local state
and TIM Scott is absolutely
correct.
How can you analogize asking
for an id? I have an id. How
can you weaponize the id issue
and analogize it to the people
who got killed during the civil
rights movement in the 60s
Steve? No one is getting killed
right now or being chased by
german shepherds. This is all a
power grab and one final point
Steve:
the majority of Americans,
including black Americans. Like
myself, we want voter id and to
make sure the right people is
voting.
Steve right.
Coca cola, though, came out and
criticized the law and said you
know we just dont like it.
It doesnt stand for our values.
Things like that.
The irony is that their two thousand and twenty
shareholders meeting at
Coca COLA you had to show id to
get into the meeting. So
obviously Coke thought that was
a good idea until they thought
it was a bad idea. But LEO when
you look at what is going on in
Georgia, theyve actually made
it harder to cheat.
They have expanded voting rights
and now the major
League baseball has moved the
all star game in July to
Coors field in Colorado, where it
is harder to vote than it is in
Georgia.
I dont get whats going on
well ill. Tell you right now,
Steve
in Georgia. They made it easier
to vote harder to cheat
moving the game to Colorado.
Georgia has more early voting
days than Colorado.
The key here is this Steve.
The argument is, corporations are
intimidated by the allegation of
racism, thats the Al Sharpton
Playbook.
You intimidate and accuse
someone of racism and they back
down and thats why Coca COLA
and all these corporations are
afraid of that label.
I mean a couple of days ago:
Steve the Portland School
District was talking about a
tree being racist,
its out of control,
totally out of control and its
all about Power
Steve. It is about power and
its about politics and Joe
Biden and the Democrats are just
trying to say. Oh look what
theyre doing in Georgia
those evil republicans theyve
come up with a terrible law
which, when you read it its not
that terrible. But you told one
of our producers yesterday LEO
that what Joe Biden has done is
he has devalued the civil rights
movement.
Could you explain what you were
talking about?
Absolutely its a very tough
situation to talk about
ive been a civil rights
attorney for thirty years.
The reason why im on this
program is because people
died in the 50s and 60s to allow
me to go to school in the 60s
and 70s
thats. Why I committed myself to
be a civil rights attorney in my
entire life because of what Dr
King and those people did?
What theyre talking about right
now, when Joe Biden says this is
Jim Crow steroids, two, its a lie:
hes devalued! All of those
people who gave up their
lives
those children bombed in that
Atlanta church thats, why its
insulting and hurting for me as
a civil rights attorney to hear
all of this rhetoric- and these
lies being told by the
Democratic Party,
its painful,
Steve, well and thats- why you
came on today to try and set the
record straight lets, make
sure that people are listening,
though, because thats important
LEO. Thank you very much for
getting up so early today.
Thank you, Steve glad to be
on the program
Steve all right straight ahead
on this program: Supreme Court,
Justice, Clarence, Thomas taking
aim at big tech and raising
questions on their power to
cutoff some peoples. Speech,
author J D, Vance sounding off on that coming up next.
