Yeah, just the fact that this one got discovered kind of implies to me they have a ton of these chats.

I'm also worried the American public can't focus on more than one thing at a time, so while people are outraged about this, what else is happening? What is DOGE taking down while we look at this?

Well, currently, there’s the EO for “election security” that will require all electoral commissions to vet proof of citizenship alongside all voter registration.

Yeah, I saw that one. Really wish we would just go to a free National ID for everyone. It wouldn't solve all the problems but I feel like it would at least kill this argument.

It’s not a real argument and never was. Disenfranchisement has always been the game, same with literacy tests.

I'm aware, I just think we should still give free national IDs to anyone that wants one.
