<p>The answer to the headline question is “yes” if you believe her own words – and those of her husband. The married co-hosts of MS NOW’s “Morning Joe,” Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski, are complaining that President Trump’s Voter ID bill will disenfranchise millions of American – especially women and minorities who just cannot seem to lay hands on a simple photo ID. (Personally, I see it as a huge insult to the intelligence of women and minorities).</p>



<p>Joe, in a classic moment of genius, declared that even his co-host Mika would not be able to vote because she has “no idea” where her birth certificate is. This from the guy married to the woman who pulls down tens of millions of dollars a year, jets around the country, and struts into 30 Rock every morning flashing the photo ID.</p>



<p>But suddenly, when it comes to the most sacred act in a democracy &#8212; casting a ballot—Mika becomes a helpless waif. It is voter suppression, they claim &#8212; wringing their hands as if it is the 1950s in the Democrat-controlled Dixie, with Black folks being turned away in droves. Give me a break.</p>



<p>Brzezinski— supposedly smart, sophisticated and definitely fabulously wealthy—is the poster child for the left’s ridiculous argument that requiring an ID to vote is some insurmountable barrier. Meanwhile, 36 states already require some form of ID at the polls, including strict photo ID laws in places like Georgia, Texas, Indiana, Wisconsin, Florida, and Ohio. And guess what? The sky has not fallen. Turnout hasn’t plummeted. In fact, the percentage of women and minorities voting has increased in recent years. The only thing that’s been “suppressed” are the fraudsters favorite loopholes.</p>



<p>Here is the dirty little secret, but the dynamic duo will not admit it. Voter ID is not about suppressing votes. It is about <strong>preventing</strong> fraud. It is a prophylactic measure. And yes, despite the Democrats’ endless chant that “voter fraud is a myth,” it does exist.</p>



<p>The Heritage Foundation’s database alone documents over 1,500 proven cases in recent years. In 2022, a Wisconsin election official was charged with absentee ballot fraud for faking military ballots. In Georgia, canvassers were busted in 2024 for filing fake voter registrations. Iowa convicted a woman in 2024 of 52 counts of fraud for forging absentee ballots in her husband’s congressional race. Texas flagged over 2,700 potential non-citizens on its rolls. Ohio found more than 1,000 non-citizens illegally registered, many of whom actually voted. California auditors discovered nearly 95,000 deceased registrants still on the books. And dead voters? They have been casting ballots for years—remember the Illinois election judge who voted for her deceased husband in 2016? Or the Colorado woman who kept voting in her dead father’s name?</p>



<p>Millions of dead people and non-citizens linger on voter rolls across the country because lazy or complicit officials will not clean them up. Voter ID stops that cold. Showing an ID to vote is common sense—the same common sense we demand in so many other situations.</p>



<p>So why do Scarborough, Brzezinski, and their Democrat pals fight tooth and nail against the most basic security measure? Why the ridiculous sob stories about birth certificates and “millions” suddenly unable to vote? Because secure elections threaten their power. When every vote is verified, the game gets a lot harder to rig. And that, dear readers, is the real story behind the outrage.</p>



<p>Mika and Joe can keep whining. The rest of us will keep demanding elections that are free, fair—and actually honest. That means over IDs – among other safeguards.</p>



<p>So, there ‘tis.</p>

Is Mika Brzezinski Really too Stupid to Obtain a Voter ID?
