As Biden Takes Office, GOP Continues Undermining Democracy

FEATURING LAWRENCE LESSIG – President Joe Biden hasn’t been in office for a week yet and Republicans are already working hard to undermine the democratically elected president. Not only do far too many GOP officials at the federal and state level back the lie that the 2020 election was won by Donald Trump, but many are laying the groundwork for theft of the next election. In Georgia where Trump’s loss and the loss of two GOP Senators caused political earthquakes, the Republican Party is busy trying to change voter ID laws and make it harder for people of color and Democrats to cast votes.
