Rubio: I Won’t let Biden Hijack Florida’s Elections
U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL)
January 13, 2022
The Floridian
President Joe Biden and the Democratic leadership believe America is on the brink of collapse…
Their response is to orchestrate a narrowly partisan power grab by ramming through a federal takeover of American elections. They claim their effort is about protecting voting rights. But the truth is that it’s simply a desperate attempt to help left-wing politicians win more elections.
…
Moreover, state governments are perfectly capable of overseeing elections. Florida conducted the 2020 elections with an outstanding degree of order and integrity, despite the craziness sweeping other parts of the nation, while also under the COVID-19 pandemic. Our example is proof that solid leadership at the state level is more than enough to see our country through even the most challenging election seasons.
…
Leftists like Biden, Schumer, and Abrams believe that if they eliminate all election safeguards … they will win more elections. That is a recipe for chaos more than anything else, and it will do absolutely nothing to protect Americans’ rights.
Democrats also believe that if Washington can hijack the responsibilities of states like Florida, they will have more leverage to push through their narrowly partisan agenda. It is a gross abuse of power, and one that will be applauded by their enablers in the legacy media.
The Leftist fringe that is overrepresented in our government and media can’t stand dissent. That is why they censor voices on social media. And it is why they are trying to destroy state-level election laws that express a refusal to toe the progressive line.
The real threat to America is not that we morph into some right-wing authoritarian regime. No, the real threat is that Americans who aren’t on board with the Left’s radical agenda are silenced, canceled, and exiled. Those are the stakes, and every American needs to understand them before it is too late.
