STEALING VOTER RIGHTS with reporter TIERNEY SNEED of THE FRANCHISE.

TIERNEY SNEED, investigative reporter for TALKING POINTS MEMO and creator of THE FRANCHISE newsletter, joins DEMOCRACY NERD to provide updates about the state of democracy and voting rights in America, such as the inclusion of so many "typos" in the voting suppression bill pushed by Texas Republicans, the announcement by U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland to use the Department of Justice's Civil Rights division to protect voting rights, and the breaking news that Senator Joe Manchin actually supports some expansion of voter protections after all.
