Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem sent shockwaves through social media with her recent comments about protecting election integrity by ensuring the “right people” vote for the “right leaders”.

Noem made the comments during a press conference in Arizona on Friday to promote the SAVE Act that would require all voters to show I.D. at the polls. Fourteen states plus Washington, D.C., currently do not require any documentation for in-person voting.

Noem praised the Trump administration for cracking down on voter fraud before stating, “When it gets to election day, we’ve been proactive to make sure we have the right people voting, electing the right leaders to lead this country.”

Her comments left journalists and liberal political pundits flabbergasted.

White Christian men voting for other White Christian men.

Anyone else can only be used to reliably pad margins.

...is the backdoor to get us to a national ID document, which is the main goal of this fascist administration. This is how you get around the objections of true conservatives and Libertarians who used to not believe people in this country should be stopped to present their papers.
