Jen Psaki Spots GOP Lawmakers' 'Brazen' Move To Tie Together Conspiracies

MSNBC s Jen Psaki bashed House Republicans for merging conspiracy theories as they backed a bill that would require proof of citizenship  for people registering to vote despite it already being illegal for noncitizens to vote in federal elections.

House Speaker Mike Johnson  (R-La.) spoke outside the Capitol surrounded by other GOP lawmakers last week as he proclaimed that theres a threat of noncitizens and illegal aliens voting in elections, although such attempts  are extremely  rare .

Psaki knocked Republicans election fraud narrative as she flipped to clips of Johnson and senior Trump White House adviser Stephen Miller linking the noncitizen voting bill to a wide open southern border.

What makes those remarks from Johnson and Co. even more outrageous is the brazen attempt to actually tie two right-wing conspiracies together all in one with a bow, said the former Biden White House press secretary, noting that the GOP combined its mass election fraud claim with the racist and frankly dumb replacement theory .

She added that its apparently mainstream Republican dogma that Democrats and elites are purposefully bringing migrants to America to dilute political power.

According to Johnson and his colleagues, Joe Biden has opened the border to as many migrants as possible in order to activate them as fraudulent Democratic votes come November, she said. Thats crazy. That theory is not only false and racist and dangerous and insane but it also crumbles under the slightest weight of the most basic questions.

She tossed to a clip of Johnson stating we all know, intuitively that noncitizens are voting in federal elections, before he admitted its not easy to prove.

Noncitizens cant vote. Thats already a crime, Psaki later noted. At best, this Republican legislation pushes a solution looking for a problem. But far more alarming its intended to sow the seeds of doubt about our countrys elections should Donald Trump lose.
