White House press secretary Jen Psaki is a breath of fresh air after her predecessors with the previous administration muddle facts with fiction consistently.
The truth is that Republican leadership in Georgia is trying to make it harder for people to vote. Other states are following Georgia’s lead after President Joe Biden soundly defeated Donald Trump by both the popular and electoral vote. Instead of changing their policies or trying to make a bigger tent for their party, Republicans make it harder for Americans to vote. They know for a fact that if more people vote, their party will lose every time.
As Georgia Governor Brian Kemp signed State Bill 202 law, he was surrounded by six white men in suits, and a portrait of a plantation hung on the wall behind him. The optics were really bad.
Donald Trump knew that if people had easier access to voting, Republicans would lose. Well, this is where Psaki comes in because she’s aware of the Republican mindset on voting.

Fox Business News correspondent Edward Lawrence had the audacity after four long years with Donald Trump at the helm to ask Psaki: “Is the tone going to change out of the White House?”
Psaki quickly shot back, “The tone for a bill that limits voting access and makes it more difficult for people to engage in voting in Georgia?” then promptly took Mr. Lawrence to school.

Mr. Lawrence, if you don’t start no shit, there won’t be no shit, OK? Psaki comes prepared and the Biden administration is going to fight Georgia Republicans over their voter suppression bill. Last Friday, Biden called the sweeping elections bill signed into law in Georgia “Jim Crow in the 21st Century” and “an atrocity,” saying the Justice Department is “taking a look” at the measure, according to CNN. Biden said it’s “nothing to do with fairness” or with “decency.”
Even South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham couldn’t explain the part of the bill that makes it illegal for someone to give food or water to anyone standing in a long voting line.
