Yeah, it’s from Fox News, and Fox is part of the Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy, but Fox sometimes gets it right.
“The United Nations Human Rights Council is investigating the issue of American election laws at its gathering on minority rights in Geneva, Switzerland. …”
What is so bad about American voting laws that the UN is involved?
Some states require photo identification for voting, and more are considering such a law..
“’This really is a tactic that undercuts the growth of our democracy,’ said Hillary Shelton, the NAACP's senior vice president for advocacy, about voter photo ID requirements.”

Here’s the deal: It don’t mean nothin’. The NAACP knows the UN will not – cannot – change voting laws in the 50 separate states. But this is another time of facts don’t matter. It is the visual. It is the cameras. It is the victimness. It is stoopid.
