So damn shortsighted.

Mehdi, respectfully I suggest you are missing the main point. History shows that when the opposition splinters, authoritarians exploit it. People's voting records wont matter if we succumb to the threat. Protecting our democracy is Job One. It's not a partisan issue.

I support the progressive vision but Kinzinger is more of a hero to me — courage—than the members of the Squad as I am very disappointed in their vote against the infrastructure bill, not sure if it is sour grapes or political gamesmanship but not courage or integrity

There is nothing wrong with asking to prove identity to vote, nothing. Even in that bastion of liberalism Canada, we have to prove who we are with a piece of ID with a picture.

This is no time to be picky

Right on. Well said!

I think you're a tad drunk by cable TV air. Kinzinger can take any stand he wants and preach anything he wants. I mean, that's what America is about, right?

Read “On Tyranny” then report back to the class. What you’re doing is irresponsible.

In my judgment big mistake to attack people who are trying to help us bring democracy back. Of course don’t vote for him of course criticize his policies but this over the top attack is boneheaded if you want to anger people you might have gotten on your side.

This is not helpful. They are still Republicans, they never changed parties. Normally a fan of Mehdi's rants but this is not helpful at all.
