There’s another group, too: the willfully ignorant. They don’t know anything about politics and they don’t want to know. Slightly, privately, secretly they may very well vote Maga, but one thing for sure they do not want to be confronted with their lack of morality.

Incredible. First Secretary Mullin claimed that DHS had identified 15,903 noncitizens on Nevada’s voter roll.
Then DHS officials told a skeptical Nevada, no no no, that’s just people we flagged. Here are the names of 185 people we KNOW aren’t citizens.
All 185 were citizens. DHS got 100% wrong.
