The NRO defending indefensible vote suppression efforts targeted at minority voters is inevitable -- they have a brand going back to 1957 to protect, after all -- but this would-be gotcha is hilarious stuff nationalreview.com/2021/03/joe-bi… 
Biden said the law forbids providing water to voters standing in line, and that's exactly what it does. It's true that the law does not forbid bringing your own water but since Biden didn't say that it did I have no idea what the point is supposed to be.
Also, genuine LOL at the idea that the state will step in to alleviate the long lines in urban areas that Republicans have INTENTIONALLY MADE LONGER by eliminating both polling places and now drop boxes (the latter of which, needless to say, goes unmentioned.)
Anyway, if Republicans are Sincerely Concerned with people being bribed by being handed water while waiting in intentionally engineered long lines, I have good news: the For The People Act allows universal vote by mail. Problem solved! I await enthusiastic Republican support.
Claiming that a bill that makes voting by mail much harder and reduces drop boxes is aimed at REDUCING the time people in urban areas have to wait in line to vote is some kind of world-historic achievement in bad faith
