At a rally, Republican vice presidential candidate J.D. Vance remarked about the 2020 election, stating that Donald Trump did not lose in the manner the media describes. Vance suggested that the narrative shaped by big tech censorship significantly affected public perception, particularly regarding the Hunter Biden laptop story. This statement triggered a strong rebuttal from Democratic Congressman Pat Ryan, who characterized Vance's comments as dismissive of the sacrifices made by military personnel risking their lives for democracy. Congressman Ryan underscored his commitment to safeguarding the voting rights of service members overseas, condemning a recent Pennsylvania lawsuit filed by six Republican House members that targets ballot processing for Americans living abroad. He argued that this lawsuit threatens the voting rights afforded to military personnel and their families, amounting to a dangerous precedent in electoral law. Ryan called out the legislators he refers to as 'traitors,' citing their role in the previous election denial claims and accusing them of undermining democracy. He recounted his own voting experience while deployed in Iraq, emphasizing the established protocols ensuring voter identity verification during wartime elections. This issue raises serious questions about the integrity and future of democratic practices, as these legal challenges to ballot processing gain momentum just weeks before an election, he warned that such actions could pave the way for future election denial tactics. Congressman Ryan's passionate stance indicates a wider concern among veterans and service members regarding their voting rights and the threat posed by misinformation and political maneuvering.
