Today we're going to talk about the Republican Party's about face on mail voting and how

they're searched for who's responsible is going.

And I interview Senator Tammy Baldwin to discuss the historic passage of the Respect for Marriage

Act, what it means for an openly gay senator to see it pass, and how Republican Ron Johnson's

win in her state will impact her own upcoming race in 2024.

I'm Brian Tyler Cohen and you're listening to No Lie.

So there's this meme that if you spend anything close to the ungodly amount of time online

that I do, you've seen where there's a guy dressed as a hot dog saying we're all trying

to find the guy who did this.

We are living through the real life version of that right now with a bunch of conservatives

now coming forward and lamenting the fact that Republicans lost this last midterm election

cycle because they failed to embrace mail-in voting and early voting.

And the argument is basically that Democrats have weeks of getting people out to the polls,

whereas Republicans are banking on like 12 hours in one single day.

And that's very clearly the right argument that they've been making.

This isn't a difficult concept here and it's been a dumb tactic from the start.

But here is the amazing part.

Listen to Sean Hannity try to start working through how they got here.

I think Republicans have been unwilling for whatever reason, reluctant, resistant to voting

early and voting by mail.

Did they have to get over that reluctance, that resistance?

Sure, lucky man.
