These people are absolutely nuts. Why in the world do they think that black people, hispanic people, and poor white people are not capable of acquiring a legal ID that proves they are actually citizens. Are you serious…. That is one of the most condescending, racist, things that these uppity sanctimonious as$holes could insinuate. I am a half hispanic, elderly woman who lives in a rural community and trust me I have no issues figuring out how to get a real ID or passport , or copy of my birth certificate. Why do they think that we are dumb or helpless and can’t figure it out. I’m absolutely offended by their ignorance.

So you should be. It’s the most demeaning excuse I’ve ever heard.

The word that comes to mind is “infantilization”. Where well meaning people imagine others as completely helpless and needing not care, but control. Utterly insulting and pathological view. If reasonable people wanted to help actually helpless people ( such as frail elderly), they could offer to assist in the process of obtaining documentation.

The left, quite frankly, WANTS minorities and various people of color to think they are stupid and useless; because they can control them more and get them voting Democrat for scraps the government throws them. People of color, already need IDs for most everything out there, and they have them. They drive, buy booze and cigs, get government services, and all the other things everyone does day to day. . There is not this wasteland of american citizens without a photo ID in their pocket. The wasteland is 20 million illegals who dont have legal ID, and that is the other reason they want to oppose voter ID>. Its utterly vile racism for them and a horrific attempt to overtake long term election results.

Obtaining these documents typically costs money, that some don't have. Unless a program lowering these costs for the impoverished is added by amendment, the bill may fail the Constitutional prohibition against poll taxes.

Ive been dirt poor all my life. I lived in the hood. And I and all my friends always got a legal I’d and a driver license. So don’t say we can’t afford it. It doesn’t cost much to get a license or ID . That’s just bull .

Fox, thank you for your Substack. I am a paid supporter and consider it money WELL invested!!!!!

I am 75 Years old and remember the JFK assassination very well. They (the Feds) lied to us then and they are lying to us now. I will never trust Pam Bondi, Kash Patel, or Dan Bongino again. The Epstein debacle IS NOT going away. I voted for DJT all three times that he won the Presidential election and am convinced that he is being lied to about this whole Epstein mess. This affair is going to fester like an infected sore that is not treated. The greatest President in my lifetime needs to clean up this mess now!!!!!!!

"... am convinced that he is being lied to about this whole Epstein mess."

LOL just love how some people desperately need to believe DJT is like some little naive schoolboy, unaware of the adult world around him! A savvy Queens New York real estate shark who needed to outsmart his rivals and the mob to become successful -- but when it comes to Epstein simply has NO IDEA that he is being lied to?? Come on 😄

Yup Trump Deification Syndrome is far far far far more dangerous to the people of the world than Trump Derangement Sydrome ever was or ever could be.

Scott Kenworthy's avatar

I guess you missed out on the deification of Obama by the democrats and media and the upheaval he started. He split the country along racial lines.

President Trump is doing his best to push the reset button that a majority of Americans want to rid us of the disease of the left wing fanatics attempt to destroy our republic...

Richard Kudrna's avatar

You can remain open to the idea that trump does good and did bad things. The latest information, that he “enjoyed” a torture video sent to him by sultan subhuman, is very disturbing. Overall the Epstein files released are very compelling in that they cover a spectrum of scum. Gates, etc.

No, there's no evidence President Trump ever received, watched, or commented on any "torture video" from Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem—or enjoyed it. The whole thing stems from a 2009 email uncovered in the recent Epstein files: Epstein wrote to bin Sulayem (a UAE billionaire and ex-CEO of DP World), "where are you? Are you ok, I loved the torture video." Bin Sulayem replied casually about travel.

It's creepy as hell—Epstein and him were tight for years, swapping explicit stuff—but Trump isn't tied to that exchange. They did cross paths socially (photos from 2008 events), and bin Sulayem even asked Epstein about crashing Trump's inauguration in 2017, but nothing shows Trump got the video or reacted to it. Rep. Massie pushed for redactions to lift, but Trump's name doesn't pop up in those emails.The Sultan's out of his job now over the fallout, though. Wild week for Dubai ports.

Wherever you received this information that DJT enjoyed a torture video should be on your never-again-will-I- listen-to this idiot list.

Sure. You know he's being lied to. I know he's being lied to. Why can't the man who routinely plays 5D chess figure that out?

Even if the Epstein files never came out, you know what looks fucking terrible, Trump's complete betrayal of his base and complete capture by a foreign country.

Extra judicial murders of fishermen under the guise of drug trafficking. Kidnapping heads of state in order to steal their natural resources.

Continuing to use the Ukrainian soldiers as a proxy Army to destabilize Russia in an attempt to maintain Global hegemony.

Using economic statecraft against Iran at the behest of his foreign Puppet Masters. Likely doing a regime change for his foreign Puppet Masters.

Overthrowing Syrian government, continuing to steal their resources and giving a portion of the country to his foreign Puppet Masters.

Signing a big beautiful bill that simply adds to our insolvency.

Passing laws that violate the First Amendment in regard to dialogue that a foreign country deems hateful. Etc etc.. it's only been a year! That's crazy!

When a narcissist is in charge of the most powerful country on the planet you've essentially sealed the people of that country's fate. Not the billionaire donors who always have an exit strategy but the American taxpayer who are robbed year after year in order to prop up this madness.

People think inflation is a direct result of just Joe Biden but nothing could be further from the truth. During 2020 everything the president did was wrong, especially operation warp speed for which he's never taken responsibility.

But now, he's protecting some of the evilest people on the planet. People who stole the Innocence of countless individuals.

Everything is completely inverted. Our neighbor isn't our enemy, our enemy is in Washington DC and in the country that controls Washington DC.

I seriously doubt enough of the American people will ever recognize how rigged the system is and who's responsible for the rigging. Thank you compulsory education and propaganda for destroying several Generations ability to critically think.

Welcome to the technocratic panopticon. Don't forget to buy your ring doorbell so you don't lose your dog 😉

Arguably the US never recovered in terms of the legitimacy of its institutions after Lincoln ripped up the constitution to attack the South for them daring to want out from under the North's hegemony. He imprisoned journalists and members of the public for daring to speak out against his lawlessness and here and now we are living through the last months and years of the results of his criminality. As that film "Gladiator" said correctly "What we do in life echoes in eternity".

Wanting out from under British hegemony, ..... good, ..... Wanting out from under Yankee hegemony, ....... bad!!

Until the US gets back to basics and that is the constitution, and divests itself of all its constitutionally illegally grabbed territories including those stolen from Mexico, from the Hawaiians who never agreed to be flooded with Europeans etc etc etc the US is a busted flush. "Remember the Alamo" is taught as something to be proud of instead of yet another pointer to the lawless state the US was allowing itself to become culminating in the tyrant Lincoln and all those tyrants who came after including the present pantshitter general shitting in the White House, .... sorry sitting in the White House.

Apparently there were several prior administrations that were responsible for this pedophile. This President is cleaning up the Biden debacle.

The Epstein mess is going to cost Trump MAGA Support. There is bipartisan support that we want these slime balls exposed and ridiculed and if they did something that can be prosecuted then we want them in jail if a court finds them guilty. Why on earth is the DOJ running cover for them? Bondi had nothing to do with it. She could be a hero if she does what's right not what the powerful elites want. How deep does this rot go?

John's avatar

Bondi was chosen precisely because she was known to be corrupt. Many pieces were written at the time of her appointment questioning why on earth Trump would appoint someone so dirty and tainted. Well now you know.

irish's avatar

bondi is obstructing justice and is complicit. she needs disbarred.

One of the more interesting Comms in the files is between Larry Summers and Epstein. Discussing the advantages of money laundering ( for Clintonistas, Obamas, Pelosis, Biden Crime Family, Bush’s ) using the Vatican Bank. Because it was outside of EU and US regulations. Very soon after which Pope Benedict resigned, we got anti Capitalista Pope Francis. And the Italian Government started investigating corruption inside the Vatican Bank.

Que up the rather strange Pope Leo remark recently about Italian spies needing moral ethics. Maybe not that strange now, 🧐🤔🙃.

Joe is just acting dumb because he knows and we knows this is how it goes just before those in the knows get thrown out of yet another country if you knows what I mean.

An intelligent parasite doesn't attempt to kill their host but a parasite with a supremacy complex where it thinks it is better than its host always does and it always leads to the host turning on the supremacist parasite because it just becomes more costly to do nothing than it is to act against that parasite ..... and its enablers.

Its like a rat sitting on top of a flip lid rat trap that thinks it is on solid ground and then suddenly, completely without warning, the ground goes away from it and that is that. It doesn't matter how many of its fellow rats the rat has seen this happening to it will still think it is a special rat and that it won't happen to him or her. But it always does as 109 previous rats could attest to were they still with us.

Piet Nolev's avatar

Let's stick to the facts.

In 2006 Trump reported Epstein to the police, and told the police about all the crimes that Mr & Mrs Epstein was conducting. That nothing happened was not Trumps doing.

It was Trump who released the fils, not Obama, not Clinton, Not Biden.

ROFLMAO! AND TRUMP WAS AN fbi INFORMANT TOO, CORRECT? IN THE TWILIGHT ZONE.

Watching that CNN clip, I notice that the two women are claiming that "there are studies showing that voter ID laws harm black voters." Well, don't just say there are studies; explain the results of those studies. Otherwise, it's like you telling me that there are dictionaries, and that they have words in them, but you don't know what any of those words are. And a news flash: Studies have shown that 97% of all scientific papers show the same biases as the people funding those studies.

Also, the SAVE Act allows for any Real ID-compliant document to be presented at a polling place as proof. Since all 50 states have now created systems to allow for Real ID to be available in their states, this is a non-problem. For them to still use the passport argument in support of their position is a non-starter; you don't need a passport to go vote.

Do those two women know that you can't purchase a cell phone without a form of identification? That is, unless you want to get a ghost phone like Chuck U Schumer wants to outlaw.

Do those same two women know that if they were to go to the local bar for a drink (which they both probably need by now), and if the bartender asks for an ID, they have to produce one before they are legally allowed to buy their drink? This entire argument about photo ID is completely insane.

Hannahlehigh's avatar

Lets face it, Trump is in the files over 4000 times, he's probably close to being a pedophile at this point. He did everything but turn himself inside out to stop the files from coming out, I think I know why now.

John's avatar

Yes and didn't he make very strange remarks about finding his own daughter sexually attractive though as far as I know he never did as Biden allegedly did, as written in his daughter's own diary, had his daughter cowering in her bedroom afraid to take a shower until 3am lest her father hear the shower going and deciding to join her in there.

The paedophilia runs through all of these people in high places and seems to be an absolute prerequisite to getting there or at least staying there. The reason a cut lettuce lasted longer than Liz Truss the British prime minister was that they found she couldn't be so easily corrupted and so out she went on the end of a Rothchild's boot.

irish's avatar

bidettes daughter? a drug addict in rehab who lost her diary conveniently had it turn up with the nonsense inserted. you believe what defies logic.

John's avatar

I wonder why she is a drug addict? You clearly believe what you want to believe but you are perfectly free to defend a nonce.

close to? he is look at his incestuous pictures with his daughter.

I think what we have here is more than it looks like. This proves once and for all that evil (Satan) did in fact have a part in creation. It proves God exists and the opposite of God is this.-evil. It has been with us since the time we were created in Gods image and we decided we wanted to be God ourselves. This is the ultimate truth- Good verses Evil. These people are truly the absence of light- they are dark and there will be a battle & they will lose.

Nanners's avatar

I 1000% agree with you. I'm 3rd gen mexican/American, I have an ID AND a passport Lefties, how's that for you?? Oh, and NOW the Left knows what a woman is, when they're saying the SAVE ACT is going to impact women? What women, who's a woman?? This is all fear tactics from the Left, because they have nothing left. I voted for Donald Trump 3X, and would do it again, I support ICE, and I support people coming here to our country legally because I have family members who have done so, I have no issue with that. ICE is doing the job that needs to be done, because Biden, the globalist, opened our borders, just like all the heads of countries in Europe did, ALL AT THE SAME TIME. This wasn't organic, it was all coordinated. These globalists want to flood all Western countries with illegals, then give all of them free money so they'll continue to vote Democrat in perpetuity, they want to bankrupt all of our countries as well. THAT is the ONLY way Democrats can, or will be/stay in power, that's all they have at this point. They have no policies, nothing to offer people. NOTHING!! I'm so sick of these evil demons that want to kill us, destroy our country and bring in 6th century barbarians into our country, F that. We are in a spiritual battle, we must all pray and pray daily. Pray for our president, for the people in govt right now to do the right things, even pray for our enemies that we know, and those that we don't know. We as Believers have God on our side, live like you know it, we win in the end, but it's going to be bumpy going forward. the Bible says it will be the worst time in human history, I believe it. Get ready, read your bible, memorize it, share it and live it out, that's the only way we get through this insanity. God bless us all. Maranatha!!!!

“IDENTITY” Politics at its best….

I applaud his simple questioning “HOW”

Their arguments always put blacks, hispanics in a bad light by “inferring” they’re stupid & incapable of simple everyday tasks like providing proper identification & he’s absolutely correct in calling them out.

Last time I checked people need a valid ID for a lot of things: Cell phones, Drivers Licenses, Utilities, Car loans, Banking….

“Smoke & Mirrors” & “Misdirection “
