brick in the wall confirming that the big lie is indeed baseless. from washington post, quote, u.s. postal service investigators found no evidence to support a pennsylvania postal worker s claim that his supervisors had tampered with mail in ballots according to an inspector general s report. allegations cited by top republicans to press baseless clams of fraud in the presidential election. richard hopkins alleged he heard the local postmaster general. he revised the initial claims eventually stated he had not heard a conversation about ballots at all. rather he saw the postmaster and supervisor having a discussion and assumed it was about fraudulent ballot back dating. the new report states. even though the dubious claim was recanted the damage was done. it became a case study in what trump and trumpism can do with a lie. trump referred to hop conditions as a quote brave patriot. senator graham cited the false claim from hopkins in a letter to the jd demanding a federal in

voting rights legislation. senator warnock s whose state was at the center of calls by trump was on the floor. watch. we are witnessing right now a massive and unabashed assault on voting rights unlike anything we have ever seen since the jim crow era. this is jim crow in new clothes. since the january election, some 250 voter suppression bills have been introduced by state legislatures across the country from georgia to arizona, from new hampshire to florida. using the big lie of voter fraud as a pretext for voter suppression. the same big lie that led to a violent insurrection on this very capitol. the day after my election. make no mistake. this is democracy in reverse. rather than voters being able to pick the politicians, the politicians are trying to cherry pick their voters. i say this cannot stand. the legislation the senator is promoting there takes direct aim at institutional barriers to voting and create national standards for voter registration. according to dem
