Virginia gov has a pen and will ignore supreme court ruling; uses Soviet language in announcement

Virginia court says governor does not have constitutional authority to give blanket voting rights to 200,000 felons, so McAullife says he will sign individual executive orders. Yep. The gov will take pen in hand and personally sign 200,000 pieces of paper.

Or maybe he’ll have a minion run that many orders through an automatic signing machine.

The commonwealth’s legislature should appoint special witnesses to the signings.

The gov calls it a “struggle for civil rights.” Everything is a “struggle” for Progressive/Socialist/Democrats. Read old Soviet propaganda. Everything was a “struggle against imperialism” or a “struggle against world capitalism” or a “struggle against fascism.” Times don’t change all that much, even though I don’t think Soviet officials would have “restored voting rights” to felons.
