Fascism and the Republican Party

[DIY-HP-LED]

Speaking to reporters outside the courthouse, Barnett vowed to appeal the verdict and said he had “absolutely not” received a fair trial, chiefly because he faced a jury in liberal-leaning Washington, D.C.
“I think the venue should have been changed. This is not a jury of my peers. I don’t agree with that decision. But I do appreciate the process. And we are surely going to appeal,” Barnett said.

another magat that wants magat jurors...tough shit. appeal, i hope the judge gets pissed you're wasting time and makes your sentence even worse.

This moron has a screw loose. Trump will be tried in DC too and will whine about it just like this guy. Hope this idiot gets hit with the book!

The rats are squealing and dealing among the foot soldiers of fascism, the further they move up the political ladder the more rats there will be. The ones in the suits will have even more incentive to cut throats and stab backs when Jack gets around to them and the politicans will be the biggest rats of all.

That fascist gang will go on without those leaders. There is a lot of support in this country for their kind of "political action".

Judging by the GOP house, they are already headless and brainless. You will always have them, but they can be kept way from the levers of power long enough. The best thing that could happen to America is for the right to split into two parties or factions under the republican banner based on regionalism. The needs of those in blue and swing states conflict with those circus performers from the ruby red districts. Many of the fuckers depend on older swing voters and the republican's brand is trash among the younger generations.

Pull a hat trick once and you could have a voter registration checkbox on your income tax form and vote by mail nationally. Things like that HR-1, voting rights and new states could tip the balance significantly. The potential and potency of problem solving is much greater than their actual ability to cause them or hinder progress over the long term.

The reason for my sarcasm is you simply showed a lack of understanding in many ways.

First, the states handle the vote, not feds. This is written into the constitution and would require an amendment to change. As you know some states want access to the ballot box be widely available and easy to cast the vote, others not so much. So, no. what you said is a non-starter.

Second, Proud Boys are a gang that is funded by right wingers who agree with them and there are a lot of those people in the country right now. Has nothing to do with elections or swing districts. They are given tickets to fly in and fight. The Proud Boys who beat people during protests in Portland came from all over the country. Republican Party could cease to exist and they would still be coming here as long as they are paid to do so.

Proud Boys will be broken after their leaders are convicted under RICO and the feds rain down hell on them. That is, IF the FBI rains down hell on them. I don't know yet where the FBI stands.

So, thanks for the good will but your post made no sense.

desantis is the biggest groomer alive...he's attempting to turn the entire educational system of florida into a white supremacist training center.
what kind of fucking horrible, terrible, shitty fucked up teachers would be willing to teach under those circumstances? what decent teacher would be willing to teach lies to children?
jim jones, sun yung moon, david koresh, marshall applewhite...and now desantis...of course desantis doesn't have a fucking personality, so he has to resort to indoctrinating children. he's just as much a cult leader as any of the others i named

this is some straight up McCarthyism from the 40s and 50s.
"At the heart of Vought and CRA’s push is a budget blueprint — “A Commitment to End Woke and Weaponized Government” — that has been circulating among influential Republican circles on Capitol Hill for months, sources say. It breaks down which line items in President Joe Biden’s budget are too “woke” — a word that appears 77 times across its 104 pages. Among the proposed cuts: gutting the National Institute of Health’s “offices that are infused with critical race theory and gender theory,” purging programs the Department of Housing and Urban Development that promote “health equity” or “social justice,” and defunding a quarter of the Department of Education’s budget to scrub the “equity” embedded “throughout the entirety of its operations.”"

Months? It's been decades. Reagan, ca 1980s: "The only good government is no government at all." That's been one of the right's signature mantras ever since. Why you think they hate taxes? Cut taxes on the rich and some dumbbell thinks it's gonna save him money.

 

[doughper]

Wokeness is another word like liberal used to describe an "other", a cultural enemy of your "tribe".

Newt Gingrich, et al, turned the word "liberal" into a dirty word. Woke, does it mean enlightened?
Not to those who would hide their dirty secrets, and wall off truth. No, a woke, snowflake, dirty,
socialist liberal is what "woke" is and means. They are criminals, not political ideologues at all.
Same as Hitler's Nazis, they're just criminals, nothing more, nothing less.
