Are a U.S. citizen (some areas allow non-citizens to vote in local elections only)
Meet your state’s residency requirements
You can be experiencing homelessness and still meet these requirements.
Are 18 years old on or before Election Day
In almost every state, you can register to vote before you turn 18 if you will be 18 by Election Day.
Are registered to vote by your state's voter registration deadline. North Dakota does not require voter registration."
when have laws stopped anyone, especially when it comes to voting in election?

for example:

Mark Wingate, a Fulton County Elections Board member, recently testified that he voted against the certification of the 2020 presidential election due to concerns he had regarding the integrity of the election. The Elections Board member claimed that Fulton County failed to verify the signatures of over 147,000 mail-in ballots.

...

Throughout the hearing, Wingate testified that Fulton County did not provide a chain of custody documentation for mail-in ballots or surveillance footage for ballot drop boxes.


...

We had more voters on the active voter rolls than we did of the population of the entirety of Fulton County and then extrapolating for those of voting age, so that became a major concern of mine and frankly lasted throughout and continued even after the 2020 election.

...


In addition to Wingate’s testimony, journalist Rachel Alexander tweeted that Garland Favorito, co-founder of VoterGA, shared his audit of the Fulton County election as part of Clark’s disbarment trial. Alexander reported that Favorito’s audit discovered a 60% error rate in election results matching ballot images.

“Tally sheet totals didn’t match the ballot images. Found falsified tally sheets – 100 to nothing for Biden,” Alexander stated. “Some were 200 to nothing, a technical impossibility. Whereas the ballot images showed a 60-40 ratio of Biden to Trump.”

In 2019, a Georgia law passed requiring election officials to notify voters if their ballots were rejected to give them an opportunity to verify their identities. Absentee voters must use ID to vote in Georgia.

How can you notify voters if their ballots were rejected, if you don't verify the signatures on the ballots?


President Biden only won by about 11,000 "votes."

I'm not saying there isn't voter fraud at the actual moment of voting. What I'm saying is how would you get registered to vote without meeting the age and citizenship requirements.

Ok, so you don't have to show photo ID but you also don't instantly get registered. That process, AFAIK, requires you submit your documents, are vetted, and then the card is sent to your home address. As it states that you can be homeless and still register to vote, I would assume you can come back to wherever you left your paperwork to retrieve your voter registration card or maybe they drop it off at the post office or something. In any case, it's not "here's my SS card, give me a voter registration card" and I'm voting in the next election. If it is, then we're fucked because it's not just non-citizens that will be voting.

CDC Ordered to Release Hidden Data

"The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has made public previously undisclosed reports of adverse events following COVID-19 vaccination, including facial paralysis among other health issues. These 780,000 reports, originating from the early phases of the vaccine rollout, encompass a range of post-vaccination complications such as heart inflammation, miscarriages, and seizures."

Reporting to the VAERS system is akin to voluntarily doing someone else's taxes. It's difficult and time consuming, and doctor's themselves don't want to be involved because it could affect their employment. In other words, the numbers are skewed by a large margin from the beginning.

Last, why does the CDC need to be SUED in order to make public safety data PUBLIC?

Well, I'm banned from yet another forum.

It turns out that if you join a group which is mostly about proselytizing ethical veganism, and you start conversations there which are predicated on the assumption that "well, obviously everyone here must be opposed to abortion," you find out that their beliefs are actually somewhat selective.

Did this really happen, or did you copy from a meme?

That said, I watched a video short today of a bunch of vegans eating meat for the first time in years. Some were militant, but went back to meat because of the various skin and internal problems from their vegan diet. One lady about started to cry happy tears after having bone marrow...

The following is not my own original creation, despite the similarity of the name of the account.

If at first you don't succeed, just do it anyway.

I'm only glad you took the initiative to take it the next level. Of course vegans tend to be triggered easily, so it's a low bar...

MTG would have been better served by stating "Earthquakes, the Statue of Liberty's torch getting struck by lightning...".

I'm with her on the belief that we're in a battle of good vs. evil right now. The satanic **** coming out of Hollyweird and the music industry, removing healthy genitalia from confused children, arresting grandmothers for praying at an abortion clinic, large numbers of people out of their minds desiring unfettered abortion up to and after birth, more and more info coming to light about the known hazards of the COVID vaxx, and the origins of COVID itself, etc., etc. She does get a little carried away, but I would take her over Sheila Jackson Lee any day. Lee is a cretin. She's so ******* stupid she doesn't know when not to speak.

A COVID aside... COVID is short for COrona VIrus Disease. If you add up all the letters in C-O-R-O-N-A, you get 66--A equals 1, B equals 2, etc. The "VI" in VIrus is the Roman numeral for 6, so COVID stands for the 666 Disease.

A Biden aside... during the 2020 election campaign, you could text your support for Joe to the number 30330. There were many spots on TV and the internet. It's an easy google find--Biden and 30330. Sooooooooooooo, 2020 divided by 666 equals 3.0330.

Coincidence?

true journalism because NPR is a legitimate source and would only run legitimate stories -- not just some instagram "journalist" (amirite joe?):

Isolated incident, I'm quite sure. Journalistic integrity means everything in the US-of-A.
