Fired for Bipartisanship

Fired for Bipartisanship

Author: Erick-Woods Erickson March 24, 2021 Duration: 10:33

This is a bizarre story that I want everyone to hear.

The kid-toucher protecting Lincoln Project has managed to use a leftwing mob to oust Georgia State Senator John Albers (R-Roswell, GA). Albers’ crime? Bipartisanship.

John Albers authored Georgia Senate Bill 62, which has been one of only two measures in the Georgia General Assembly to get bipartisan support for election integrity reform. The legislation requires watermarks on absentee ballots to prevent absentee ballots from being copied.

Democrats and Republicans both supported the measure.

Albers went on to be one of only four Republicans to vote against a comprehensive election reform package the Georgia Senate Republican conference pushed that was far more expansive.

To reiterate — Albers sided with Democrats and voted against the more expansive GOP package while also drafting a bipartisan measure to ensure absentee ballots cannot be fraudulently copied. That did not stop the Lincoln Project from mischaracterizing Albers and harassing his employer, the national law firm Fisher Phillips, which represents corporations in union disputes.

The woke Fortune 500 companies that use Fisher Phillips were also targeted. Albers was given no choice but resign from the law firm.

Albers did everything right. He voted against his GOP brethren’s legislation. He authored bipartisan legislation. He lost his job anyway because theLincoln Project and Woke-O Haram lied about him and his law firm threw him under the bus.

I talked to Senator Albers on my radio show about what happened.
