The House Elections Committee on Monday unanimously passed measures to allow early voting, online voter registration and to create a study committee to come up with clearer rules for restoration of voting rights for convicts.
The full House last year overwhelmingly passed similar early voting and online registration measures that died in the Senate. Restoration of voting rights for convicts has been a source of debate in the Legislature for decades — based on what many call antiquated law — and is now done on a case-by-case basis, requiring the full Legislature to passe individual suffrage bills.
In the past, all three issues were heatedly partisan, with most Republicans opposed to such reform. On Monday, all three bills passed were authored by Republicans and passed by a Republican-led committee.
If I heard right, the State Department just resigned.
I'm hearing that was the point. T-Rex tore through and they panicked (and it's easier if they simply quit). Given profound amount of corruption, I didn't expect any higher ups to survive.

Trump spokeswoman Hope Hicks told CNN that "despite what the media reports, we are an incredibly inclusive group and we took into account all of those who suffered."
Hicks reportedly provided a link to a story that noted that while 6 million Jews were killed by Nazis, another 5 million non-Jewish people were killed under Adolf Hitler.
The Jews got All Lives Matter'd.
Also, if people are already suspect that this admin has right nationalist ties, this kind of thing doesn't help.
Trump wants closer ties with Israel: "OMG, he's a Zionist!"
Trump acknowledges that almost as many gays, gypsies, and blacks were killed during the Holocaust: "OMG, he's a Nazi!"
The Left is a damned joke.

Rep. Dave Brat, R-7th, is feeling some political pressure as Republicans in Congress move to repeal the Affordable Care Act.
“Since Obamacare and these issues have come up, the women are in my grill no matter where I go,” Brat told an audience Saturday at a meeting of conservative groups at Hanover Tavern.
“They come up — ‘When is your next town hall?’ And believe me, it’s not to give positive input.”
Brat, R-7th, asked the GOP-friendly audience to get organized.
“Help us write newspaper articles. We’re getting hammered,” he said.
Dems are vowing to boycott two picks and neither are Sessions or Devos. Dems gonna dem.
This failed. Apparently the GOP could change panel rules on cloture to vote without Dems. Not sure exactly as I haven't seen it explained well anywhere.

I'm glad we now have the nuclear option, thanks Reid!

The military convoy spotted on Sunday flying a Donald Trump flag near Louisville belonged to an East Coast-based SEAL unit, a Navy spokesperson told ABC News.
Happy Black History Month; Jeff Sessions is now out of Committee
Indeed, he was quite a hero for the civil rights movement, his record against white supremacist groups is impressive.

Before Dems decided to lose their minds and start bashing the man, because trashing anything Trump does is so fashionable, they actually defended him.

Careful linking to Salon, I hear it's not a reliable source.

If you aren't pulling it off the direct feeds, before the spin, "flavor", and outright lies are added, you're being manipulated.

I simply searched Google trying to offer something you could understand from a source you trust.

Derp. That was the joke. Even your own moonbat journalists have defended Sessions, I guess I expected too much from you guys, yet again. Oh well, at least I was entertained.

I sure hope you all DON'T GET the flu going around. Took my ass out for over a week. Coughing, really runny nose, chills, nausea, "Technicolor Yawns" and no energy at all.
Actually YOU are the joke. Perhaps one day it will dawn upon you why. Bless your heart.
OAW
Pitiful, you've always been a punchline and now you're just salty that, in your fury, you didn't catch the obvious. Carry on, my dude.

The senator from Oregon later got to finish reading the letter, so it was less about the content of the letter, or impugning Sessions honor (?!) but more about trying to shut Liz up. Rule 19 is selectively enforced. #shepersisted

They probably figured out they were making things worse. Twitter blew up almost immediately.
I'm terrified about Putin advancing into Korea, as per Maxine Waters' statement. WTF?!!? Why weren't we told about this sooner?
Also, Bush is apparently back in office again. Not sure which one, Pelosi wasn't very specific.

Really? You could point out that they didn't read the same parts of the letter, he didn't go into the direct "bad mouthing" until the very end of his speech (a much more intelligent angle, if you actually want to try and skirt the rules and aren't looking for victim points). #shesavictim

There you go loving victims yet again. What a sympathetic chap you are.
If you saw a child hit by a car, would you rush over to lecture the kid about how great cars are, how the driver was probably forced to hit him by rioting liberals and about how he's a precious little snowflake and shouldn't cry just because he can see both his broken shins sticking out through his calves?
I have plenty of more important things to do, if only I could bring myself to do them....
This is a letter Mrs. King wrote to Ted Kennedy in 1986. The charges were false, and witnesses came clean about it. The Fake indian didn't realize she was reading fiction. THAT was the impuning of Sessions.
