The COO and Chief Financial Officer in the Georgia Secretary of State’s office has written an op-ed in the Washington Post, pleading with President Biden to stop telling lies about Georgia’s election law. He warns that Biden’s false claims about the law, such as claiming that it reduces voting hours and criminalizes giving voters water or that it’s a return to Jim Crow laws, are the type of thing that inflame the passions of the misinformed and spark riots and death threats. He writes, “Someone is going to get hurt. Your words matter. The facts matter.”
I like his conclusion: “Let’s tell the truth. Let’s make elections boring again.”
Sadly, I think if Biden were concerned about his words and policies harming people, he would be paying a lot more attention to what he’s saying and doing about our Southern border, which has led to headlines like these:
Texas Border Patrol Agents Apprehend 3 Convicted Child Sex Offenders in 2 Days
Police Find Woman's Body in Trunk of Car, 4 Suspected MS-13 Gang Members Charged
AZ Cop Finds 17 Illegal Aliens in Car, Forced to Set Them Free When Border Patrol Refuses to Help
That last story caused Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey to become so fed up, he issued a blistering statement about Biden’s border policies, accusing him of defying all logic and being asleep at the switch (I could believe that literally.) He declared that “the Biden/Harris administration needs to get its head out of the sand.”
I commend his admirable restraint in using the phrase “the sand.”
