Trump / Barr DOJ Caught Investigating Political Enemies

The New York Times reported that Barr’s DOJ issued subpoenas to Apple for the metadata for Congressmen Schiff and Swalwell and members of their staff and families. This allegedly was part of an investigation into leaks coming from the House Intelligence Committee, yet no Republican members of that committee had their information subpoenaed. This looks more like the weaponization of the DOJ for Trump’s political advantage than it looks like a legitimate leaks investigation.

 

Trump/Barr’s DOJ Issued Subpoenas for Rep. Adam Schiff’s and Rep.Eric Swalwell’s Electronic Data

In a stunning revelation, even for the Trump/Barr Department of Justice, the New York Times reported that Barr’s DOJ issued subpoenas to Apple for the metadata for Congressmen Schiff and Swalwell and members of their staff and families. This allegedly was part of an investigation into leaks coming from the House Intelligence Committee, yet no Republican members of that committee had their information subpoenaed.

Former political party is fully anti-democracy’: Walsh on mock jail cell at CPAC

Former Republican congressmen Joe Walsh and Charlie Dent spoke with CNN’s Jim Acosta about CPAC featuring an exhibit with a Jan. 6 rioter in a fake jail cell pretending to cry.

 

Republicans claiming the Federal Government has been Weaponized against Trump, Republicans and MAGA January 6 Rioters after being rounded up and arrested for their crimes prove they are LAWLESS HYPOCRITES.

They’re HYPOCRITES because if the rioters were BLM protestors they’d be demanding HARSH prison sentences or worse.

They’re HYPOCRITES because if a Democrat President had done a fraction of what Trump has done, Republicans would have demanded investigations, impeached him or her in a heartbeat and demand they be arrested.

 

Republicans are LAWLESS, because they don’t care what crimes they’re rioters committed to keep Trump in office after he lost. They’ve attempted to whitewash January 6 as a “Peaceful Protest”, “Political Discourse” and call those who were arrested “Political Prisoners”.

 

House Republicans proved they’re LAWLESS and unfit to hold public office when they failed to vote to Impeach Trump who violated his Oath of Office numerous ways, including Obstructing Justice, Abuse of Power, Blocking Congressional Oversight, Demanding Ukraine President Zelenskyy make an announcement political opponent Joe Biden was being investigated in exchange for Foreign Aid, Pressured Georgia Secretary of State to “find” more votes, incited an Insurrection to stay in office by a Coup and more.

House Republicans proved they’re LAWLESS when they ousted Liz Cheney, who put the Rule of Law, the Constitution & Decency over her own career by voting to Impeach Trump, the most lawless President in History.

 

 

House Republicans shouldn’t even be be allowed to hold a majority… they should have been REMOVED for violating their Oath of Office by voting to overturn the 2020 election results after 50+ court cases PROVED Trump’s “Rigged” or “Stolen” claims were BASELESS.

60 Americans died while George W. Bush was President. There were no endless investigations by Republicans into those deaths… proving that the endless Benghazi investigations were politically motivated and motivated by HATE. The investigations also proved that Republicans are Hypocrites for failing to equally investigate the 60 deaths which occurred on BUSH’S watch.

 

 

 

 

 

Republicans are going to do everything they can to harm the Biden Admin to get even because they’re vindictive Partisan HACKS who LOST the 2020 election

U.S. House Republicans vote to go after Biden Justice Department

Republicans controlling the U.S. House of Representatives voted on Tuesday to launch an investigation into what they term President Joe Biden’s weaponization of the federal government, but Democrats branded it a partisan fishing expedition.

Per the above article: “Republicans controlling the U.S. House of Representatives voted on Tuesday to launch an investigation into what they term President Joe Biden’s weaponization of the federal government, but Democrats branded it a partisan fishing expedition. Republicans have been promising to use their new majority against the Justice Department, FBI and other federal agencies investigating Republican former president Donald Trump and his supporters who on Jan. 6, 2021, stormed the Capitol”.

The GOP is a LAWLESS PARTY which doesn’t want any of their own to be held accountable for their crimes.

 

Republicans Use Debt Limit to Cut Social Security & Medicare

 

Republicans are holding the Nation’s economy hostage by refusing to raise the Debt Ceiling unless they get cuts to Social Security & Medicare

 

 

If it weren’t for Republicans Tax Cuts for the RICH and refusing to make them pay their fair share, we’d have the money we need to pay our nations bills and wouldn’t need to raise the Debt Limit.

 

Former Secretary of Labor, Robert Reich explains the longtime Republican plan to slash Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid.

 

Government Shutdowns are in Republican’s DNA and they’ve been using the threat of “Shutting Down the Government” to get their way since Bill Clinton was President

 

Demands by House Republican to negotiate over a debt ceiling limit increase are deeply hypocritical, since a significant portion of that debt was added during Donald Trump’s presidency. They’re essentially refusing to pay bills already committed, some of which THEY’RE responsible for generating. Republican actions might also violate the 14th Amendment to the US Constitution, as Ken Harbaugh explains.

 

Rep. Khanna slams GOP demanding spending cuts in exchange for raising debt limit ceiling

Kevin McCarthy is playing with fire over America’s debt ceiling. Joy and her panel explain how after maxing out the national credit card when they were in charge, Republicans are threatening to simply stop paying America’s bills with dire consequences.

 

Sen. Warren: Republicans are threatening to wreck our economy to protect a wealthy handful

Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., joins Morning Joe to discuss why she says the House Republican plan for the debt ceiling is about protecting the wealthy and the well-connected from paying their fair share in taxes.

 

 

 

National Debt exploded under REPUBLICANS Ronald Reagan & George H.W. Bush due to excessive military spending and tax breaks for the RICH.

This was all part of the “Two Santa Clauses” plan whereby they run up the debt & cut taxes when a Republican is President so they are viewed as a good “Santa Clause”. Then when a Democrat is President, Republicans scream about the National Debt, refuse to increase the debt ceiling, shut down the government if necessary to stop Democrats from spending any money on social programs which could help working Americans. Be sure to watch the SHOCKING video below about this.

 

REPUBLICANS increase the National Debt with excessive military spending and tax breaks to the RICH so there’s no money for Social Programs which benefit the middle class & the poor

 

GOP demolished with debt facts: Trump and Bush drove the trillion dollar deficits

After Trump’s historic spending spree, the GOP now calling for cuts under Biden. MSNBC’S Ari Melber shows you how Trump is responsible for 25% of U.S. debt, rising by $7 trillion and explains how the party of Reagan became the party of MAGA brinksmanship.

 

The national debt was increased by a projected 8 Trillion by Trump and Republicans due to military spending and tax breaks for the RICH

 

Republicans and Right Wing Media has fooled a large segment of the United States population into believing the GOP is the Party of “Working Class” people when it’s actually the party of the RICH and RULING CLASS

 

Republicans Lying About Social Security

 

 

The above video explains how for the past 40 years since Ronald Reagan was President, Republicans have been victimizing Americans using a tactic called the “Two Santa Clauses”, whereby they run up the debt & cut taxes when a Republican is President so they are viewed as the good “Santa Clause”. Then when a Democrat is President, Republicans scream about the National Debt, refuse to increase the debt ceiling, shut down the government if necessary to stop Democrats from spending any money on social programs which could help working Americans.

In this way, Republicans are literately punishing Americans for voting for Democrats who are dedicated to helping the middle class and the poor while doing everything possible to make sure Democrats can’t help the middle class and the poor, to make them look like the “Bad Santa Clause”.

This is another example of how Republicans are RUTHLESS… ONLY caring about seizing, maintaining power, being subservient to Corporate Interests and the RICH.

 

Inventor Of Trickle Down Economics Says Trump’s Tax Plan Is “Dead on Arrival”

David Stockman, the economist who developed the theory of trickle down economics during the Reagan administration, says that Trump’s tax plan is a giveaway to the wealthy elite and that it will result in an economic downturn. Stockman has admitted that his theory of trickle down economics is implausible, and he regrets the damage that his policy has caused this country.

 

Trump Tax Cuts Add WAY More Debt Than Advertised

“Experts” low-balled the amount of debt the Republican tax plan would entail.

 

The above video explains how George W. Bush took Democrat’s and Bill Clinton’s budget surplus and exploded the debt by almost 10 Trillion, doing what Republicans always do…. giving Tax Breaks to the Rich (as shown in the graphs below) and then tanked the economy.

Bush_Obama_Spending_2014

Bush_Obama_Deficit_2014

Monthly_0208_0514

In this chart, the RED lines on the left side – the ones that keep doing DOWN – show what happened to jobs under the policies of Bush and the Republicans. We were losing lots and lots of jobs every month, and it was getting worse and worse. The BLUE lines – the ones that just go UP – show what happened to jobs when the stimulus was in effect. We stopped losing jobs and started gaining jobs, and it was getting better and better.

The leveling off on the right side of the chart shows what happened as the stimulus started to wind down: job creation leveled off at too low a level.

It looks a lot like the stimulus reversed what was going on before the stimulus. We have gone from losing around 850,000 jobs a month to gaining over 200,000 jobs a month.

Conclusion: THE STIMULUS WORKED BUT WAS NOT ENOUGH!

More False Things

These are just three of the false things that everyone “knows” because places like Fox News repeat them over and over and over. Some others are (click through): Obama bailed out the banks, businesses will hire if they get tax cuts, health care reform cost $1 trillion, Social Security is a Ponzi Scheme or is “going broke”, tax cuts grow the economy, government spending “takes money out of the economy.”

Actually This Reduced Spending And Lower Deficit Have Hurt The Economy

Government spending is literally, by definition, the things that government does to make our lives better. People have been tricked into thinking that government spending is somehow bad. The billionaires and giant corporations spread this nonsense around because they are greedy and just want their taxes lower. The top income tax rate used to be more than 90 percent and the top corporate tax rate used to be more than 50 percent. That was back when we built this country’s great infrastructure, had good schools and defended the world against the Soviet Union. We also had higher economic growth and a growing middle class.

Government spending does not “take money out of the economy.” In fact it puts money into the economy, creates jobs and lays the foundation for future prosperity. The decline in government spending shown in the charts above is the reason that the economy remains sluggish and jobs are still hard to get. Just look at that chart showing what the stimulus spending did for the job situation. But since the stimulus ended, Republicans have obstructed every effort to continue to use our government to help our economy.

Kevin McCarthy UNFIT to be Speaker of the House

Kevin McCarthy is a Traitor

 

Kevin McCarthy is not only UNFIT to be Unfit to be Speaker of the House, he should have been ARRESTED for obstructing a congressional investigation by making threats to intimidate phone and social media companies that cooperated with the House select committee which investigated the Capitol riot.

The House Select Committee requested phone records from telecommunications companies as part of its investigation. House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy told the telecommunications companies not to comply with the Congressional requests and threatened that if they did, the GOP “would not forget it” once they are in power. This is a brazen act of obstructing a congressional investigation. The Department of Justice must address this promptly or else there likely will be more obstructive conduct by McCarty and perhaps others.

 

 

The law regarding Obstruction of Justice and Witness Intimation is clear;

1725. Protection Of Government Processes – Obstruction Of Pending Proceeding – 18 U.S.C. 1505

“Section 1505 of Title 18, United States Code, as amended by the Victim and Witness Protection Act of 1982, forbids anyone from corruptly, or by threats of force or by any threatening communication, influencing, obstructing, or impeding any pending proceeding before a department or agency of the United States, or Congress. In 1996 Congress enacted a clarifying amendment to 18 U.S.C. § 1515, which defines the term “corruptly” as used in section 1505 to mean “acting with an improper purpose, personally or by influencing another, including making a false or misleading statement, or withholding, concealing, altering, or destroying a document or other information.” False Statements Accountability Act of 1996, Pub. L. No. 104-292, §3, 110 Stat. 3459, 3460.

 

 

McCarthy said in a statement posted to Twitter that letters from the January 6 panel sent to 35 social media, telecommunications and email companies “If these companies comply with the Democrat order to turn over private information, they are in violation of federal law and subject to losing their ability to operate in the United States,” he said. “If companies choose to violate federal law, a Republican majority will not forget and will hold them fully accountable”

 

Kevin McCarthy Flirts With Felony By Threatening Telecom Companies On Jan. 6 Committee Request

Rep. Zoe Lofgren talks with Rachel Maddow about progress by the House Select Committee on the January 6th Attack on the Capitol in processing requested material for their investigation, and wonders at what Republican Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy is thinking as he interferes in the investigation, which is against the law.

 

 

Kevin McCarthy’s latest legislative thuggery: tells DHS Secretary Mayorkas, “resign or be impeached”

Representative Kevin McCarthy is prone to political bullying. Recent reporting relates, “McCarthy Calls for DHS Secretary Mayorkas to Resign or Face Impeachment.”

McCarthy’s latest legislative thuggery is reminiscent of the threats he leveled approximately a year ago when he learned that telecom companies and social media platforms were cooperating with the January 6 House select committee’s investigation of the insurrection. McCarthy told the companies that if they cooperated, “the Republicans would not forget it.” These kind of political threats represent a gross abuse of power and office.

 

‘Trump’s not eating’: Cheney shares chat with McCarthy about Trump’s 2020 loss

 

Kevin McCarthy can be heard in this recording stating that Trump is to blame for the Jan 6th Insurrection. Days later he changes his tune after calculating that he needs Trump to become Speaker of the House

 

It’s clear that McCarthy & Republican’s desire to remove Schiff and Swalwell is about PAYBACK & REVENGE against Democrats for removing Paul Gosar and MTG from committees due to their outrageous behavior. Trump and Republicans also hate Schiff and Swalwell because they stood for the Rule of Law by exposing Trump’s lawlessness during his impeachments.

 

The above statement “I am committed to returning the @HouseIntel Committee to one of genuine honesty and credibility” is a JOKE. Only people who watch FOX FAKE NEWS are brainwashed & gullible enough to believe such a statement.

Republicans proved to be LAWLESS when they failed to vote to Impeach Trump who violated his Oath of Office numerous ways, including Obstructing Justice, Abuse of Power, Blocking Congressional Oversight, Dirt on an opponent for Foreign Aid, Pressured Georgia Secretary of State to “find” more votes, incited an Insurrection to stay in office by a Coup and more.

Republicans proved to be LAWLESS when they ousted Liz Cheney, who put the Rule of Law, the Constitution & Decency over her own career by voting to Impeach Trump, the most lawless President in History.

House Republicans violated their Oath of Office by voting to overturn the 2020 election results after 50+ court cases PROVED Trump’s “Rigged” or “Stolen” claims were BASELESS.

House Republicans don’t represent the majority of Americans because their slim majority was obtained by Gerrymandering & Lies… giving them a rigged, undeserved, illegitimate Majority. Several seats alone were stolen from Democrats by Florida Republicans by Gerrymandering, violating Florida’s Constitution which in 2010 was amended to prohibit partisan-driven redistricting.

Republicans know they can’t win without cheating due to extreme policies such as anti-abortion, which force 10 year olds to give birth to a rapist’s child. That’s why they engage in Gerrymandering & Voter Obstruction tactics such as decreasing locations, days and hours people can vote, decreasing drop boxes, vote by mail restrictions, purging minorities off voters rolls, causing long lines by not having enough voting machines, limiting early voting, legalized intimidation by “Poll Watchers” and making it a crime to give food or water to voters in long lines caused by Republicans to keep people from voting who aren’t likely to vote for them.

This video also takes on the question of what constitutes probable cause to arrest, what politicians may already have crossed that evidentiary threshold, and what the Department of Justice MUST now do to protect our republic.

 

MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell explains why Speaker Kevin McCarthy is using the three Democrats he has vowed to “fire,” a power he does not have, as a symbol for the kind of power he wishes he had.

 

Kevin McCarthy is a Partisan Hack and Trump Ass Kisser who has consistently put his own political career & party above our country. He proved to be LAWLESS by failing to vote to impeach Trump twice for Abuse of Power and then Insurrection, voted to overturn the 2020 election and make Trump an UN-elected Dictator, failed to hold Marjorie Taylor Greene accountable for her outrageous conduct, the Benghazi Witch Hunt & other issues.

 

The New McCarthyism

When Trump needed a stooge, Kevin played the part perfectly. When Trump lied about the election, Kevin followed his lead. When white nationalists, anti-vaxxers, and conspiracy theorists in his caucus need protecting, Kevin’s right there to give them cover.

Michael Fanone, former D.C. police officer and author of the newly released book, “Hold the Line,” talks with Alex Wagner about how quickly Republican leadership, and Kevin McCarthy in particular changed their perspective on January 6th when they felt the political mood changing in the Republican base.

 

POWER (not serving the people) is ALL that matters to this TRAITOR who sold his SOUL to Trump.

 

 

Why did Kevin McCarthy drop being considered for Speaker in 2015?

 

 

Jesse talks about the SECRET VOTE held by Republicans to NOT hold Marjorie Taylor Greene responsible for her words and actions. They are forcing Democrats to do their work for them. Kevin McCarthy EMBARRASSED himself at last night’s press conference when he faked as though he didn’t know what QAnon is or even how to pronounce it.

 

Here’s how former Pres. Trump incited insurrection, step by step

 

Trump & Republicans incited violence, chaos and rioting in Washington, DC. Rioters stormed the House & Senate chambers, wrecking havoc, destruction and deaths. Yet McCarthy voted to do nothing about Trump’s Insurrection, attempted Coup and Incitement of Violence to overturn the 2020 Election and make himself an UN-elected dictator.

For years, Republicans accused President Obama and Hillary Clinton of being responsible for four (4) Americans deaths in Benghazi at a US Embassy.

60 Americans died when George W. Bush was President. There were no endless investigations by Republicans into those deaths… proving the endless Benghazi investigations were politically motivated.

 

 

 

 

 

Republican Kevin McCarthy admitted what Democrats knew all along… that the House Benghazi Investigations was all about taking down Hillary Clinton

 

Republicans SHAMELESSLY exploited the deaths of 4 Americans for their own political gain. The numerous Benghazi investigations by Republicans which cost taxpayers millions was motivated by Politics, Hate for President Obama and to “Get” Hillary Clinton.

 

Politicization of Benghazi

 

Benghazi Hoax Debunked

It is clear that Lindsey Graham and other Republicans constant comments about President Obama being responsible for Benghazi was motivated by partisan hate for President Obama and to “Get” Hillary Clinton.

Republicans proved they’re LAWLESS when they failed to vote to Impeach Trump who violated his Oath of Office numerous ways, including Obstructing Justice, Abuse of Power, Blocking Congressional Oversight, Dirt on an opponent for Foreign Aid, Pressured Georgia Secretary of State to “find” more votes, incited an Insurrection to stay in office by a Coup and more.

Republican House Majority Obtained by Theft, Gerrymandering & Lies

2023 House REPUBLICAN’S majority was obtained by Election Rigging, Theft, Gerrymandering and Lies… giving them a Rigged, Undeserved, Illegitimate Majority. This is another example of how the United States Government SUCKS due to REPUBLICANS.

 

GOP Redistricting Is Undermining Democracy In State Legislatures

Despite stinging statewide defeats in 2018, 2020, and 2022, Republicans are still calling the shots in Wisconsin — all because of GOP redistricting, which is undermining democracy. Ben Wikler, chair of the Wisconsin Democratic Party, joins Mehdi to discuss.

The GOP’s Bid to Claim a Rigged House Majority

Voters repudiated the GOP congressional agenda. Court-sanctioned gerrymanders made sure it didn’t matter.

Per the above article: The GOP’s Bid to Claim a Rigged House Majority. Voters repudiated the GOP congressional agenda. Court-sanctioned gerrymanders made sure it didn’t matter.

“An aggressive—and likely unconstitutional—partisan and racial gerrymander demanded by Governor Ron DeSantis helped provide Republicans with four of those seats from Florida alone. Maps that likely violated Voting Rights Act (VRA) protections against racial gerrymanders were allowed to proceed in Alabama, Georgia, and Louisiana. A conservative district court in Texas endorsed a blatantly discriminatory congressional there that reduced the political power of Latinos even as they drove 95 percent of the state’s population growth over the last decade.

 

Wisconsin’s “conservative” (Regressive) court mediated a redistricting deadlock between the Republican-controlled legislature and Democratic governor by mandating a new map that made the fewest possible changes to the current one—meaning that the previous decade’s toxic GOP gerrymander was locked in place for another 10 years. In Ohio, meanwhile, the state supreme court twice rejected congressional maps drawn by GOP lawmakers as unconstitutional partisan gerrymanders. A bipartisan majority of justices declared these maps wildly out of line with a 2018 statewide initiative backed by more than 70 percent of voters mandating that districts be drawn up with lines that did not favor or disfavor any political party, to better bring them into alignment with the state’s partisan balance. Lawless GOP officials used the maps anyway. They ignored the courts, ran out the clock, and—won 10 out of 15 House seats—two-thirds of the delegation—in a state where J.D. Vance defeated Tim Ryan by only 53.3 percent to 46.7 percent for the US Senate”.

REPUBLICAN DOMINATED Supreme Court Just Legalized Partisan Gerrymandering and Violating Democracy

4 House Seats STOLEN from Democrats by Florida Republican Governor Ron DeSantis using illegal Gerrymandering which helped give Republicans a RIGGED, UNDESERVED Majority in the U.S. House of Representatives. (DeSantis Gerrymandering was illegal because Florida’s Constitution was amended in 2010 to prohibit partisan-driven redistricting)

 

Radical Right Wing Republican Ron DeSantis Rigged and stole House of Representative Seats from Democrats by Gerrymandering.

 

DeSantis pushes redistricting map that splits up Black voters

DeSantis’ proposed map also splits up Black voters around the Orlando area and proposes the creation of 18 Republican-leaning and eight Democrat-leaning seats, which, if passed, would effectively eliminate Democrats’ national redistricting advantage and threaten their slim majority in the House of Representatives.

 

Florida Republican Gov DeSantis dissolved 4 black voting districts (violating the Florida constitution), helped House Republicans obtain a undeserved, rigged Majority.

This type of Election Rigging is DESTROYING Democracy and Freedom in the United States and is why ALL REPUBLICANS should be voted OUT.

 

Ohio’s Redistricting Process Has Been a Roller Coaster

in 2018, Ohio voters thought they were doing a good thing by reforming redistricting in their state. It turns out they created a chaotic process that has left their congressional map as gerrymandered as ever.

 

Republicans couldn’t hold a majority in the United States House of Representatives without Gerrymandering. The only way they can “win” is by CHEATING and RIGGING elections in their favor.

 

Gerrymandering, a legal form of vote stealing, more entrenched now than ever

Republicans, who control a substantial majority of state legislatures, benefit significantly.

Per the above article: “In June 2019, the U.S. Supreme Court overruled a unanimous U.S. District Court decision that partisan gerrymandering in North Carolina violated the Equal Protection clause of the 14th Amendment to the Constitution. Although Chief Justice John Roberts acknowledged that the practice leads to results that “reasonably seem unjust,” he maintained that partisan gerrymandering is a “political question,” beyond the reach of federal courts. Each state, Roberts indicated, should manage its own redistricting process.

Four justices dissented. In an emotional statement, which she read from the bench, Elena Kagan warned, “Left unchecked as the court does today, gerrymanderers like these may irreparably damage our system of government.”

 

 

Governor tainting Congressional maps

Despite state and federal laws designed to ensure voting equity and access. Gov. Ron DeSantis interjects partisanship into Congressional redistricting.

Per the above article: “The nonpartisan Princeton Gerrymandering Project, which analyzes redistricting nationwide to understand and eliminate partisan gerrymandering, rates DeSantis’ plan an “F” for partisan fairness. But that was the whole idea, to tilt the board to favor his party, rather than follow the federal Voting Rights Act of 1965 and Florida’s Fair Districts amendments, which were meant to prevent such undemocratic game-playing.

If DeSantis follows through on his promise to veto the Florida Legislature’s maps and pushes the issue into the courts, he gains a chance to skew elections for years to come, if he succeeds in toppling precedents that favor fairness to minority voters.

A righteous politician might support policies that win votes by advocating equity and opportunity for all. In other words, if DeSantis and his party just did the right thing, they wouldn’t have to cheat. Instead our governor crafts ever-more-intricate ways to shunt minorities away from ballot boxes.

The maneuver follows a wave of voter suppression efforts across Florida and the nation to make ballot drop boxes less accessible, to add voter identification burdens where there’s no hint of fraud and to make it difficult or illegal for voters’ rights groups to pick up and drop off ballots for the elderly and infirm.

There’s one reason for all of this and one reason alone: African-Americans know that by and large, Republican candidates don’t have their interests in mind, so Republicans seek out every slimy, legalistic way they can to minimize those likely Democratic votes”.

 

Analysis: Ron DeSantis is drawing Democrats out of the equation in Florida | CNN Politics

Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis has proposed an aggressively partisan redrawing of the state’s congressional boundaries that will likely help his party pick up four seats in the House this November. Here’s what experts have to say about this type of gerrymandering.

Per the above article: “Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis has proposed an aggressively partisan redrawing of the state’s congressional boundaries that will likely help his party pick up four seats in the US House of Representatives this November.

CNN’s Steve Contorno reports: “Like previous maps submitted by DeSantis’ office, the latest offering would likely reduce the number of districts where Black voters are a plurality and would make it difficult for Democrats to win anywhere north of Orlando or outside major cities.”

The consequences for the country are severe. Lawmakers in both parties speaking candidly admit that gerrymandering House districts is one of the big reasons that the chamber has become more partisan over the last several decades”.

Florida Lawmaker Says Gerrymandered State Maps Are Part of Racist Strategy, “Not Just a Culture War”

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signed into law a gerrymandered voting map that virtually guarantees Republicans four more seats in Congress while likely cutting the number of Black Democrats elected. The measure passed along party lines Thursday but was delayed when Black Florida lawmakers staged an impromptu sit-in protest. “Republicans cannot continue to disenfranchise Black voters,” says state Senator Shevrin Jones, a Democratic member of Florida’s Legislative Black Caucus who took part in the protest and who calls the gerrymandering part of a larger suite of “racist tactics” enacted by Republicans across the country.

HOW REPUBLICANS RIG ELECTIONS BY GERRYMANDERING

Republicans has Rigged Elections in their favor for years to come through Gerrymandering

 

Republicans began rigging elections in 2010 so they couldn’t be removed from office by hyper-gerrymandering every state they took control of. Republicans injected $30 million, much of it from dark money, often targeting vulnerable blue state Democrats in races that wouldn’t otherwise draw a lot of national funding. The plan was called REDMAP

 

Through Gerrymandering, Republicans has made it almost impossible to be removed from office in some districts. Since they feel safe from being removed from office, they have no motivation to compromise. They are pursuing radical right wing agendas such as cutting assistance to the poor, cutting planned parenthood funding and passing anti-aborting “War on Women” legislation when the majority of Americans do not support these policies.

Democrats won 20 million More Votes and Lost

The United States constitution is severely flawed when more often than not in the last few elections the majority of people voting for a particular party did not receive their relative representation. Democrats received 20 million more votes in the Senate than Republicans in 2014, yet Republicans won big.

The same occurred in the House of Representatives in 2012.

House Democrats out-earned their Republican counterparts by 1.17 million votes. Read another way, Democrats won 50.59 percent of the two-party vote. Still, they won just 46.21 percent of seats, leaving the Republicans with 234 seats and Democrats with 201.

The above texts show how delusional Ginny Thomas is, calling Trump a “Great President” when he’s the WORST and most LAWLESS President in history (as shown on this website).

With each action she takes, it is harder and harder to conclude anything other than Judge Cannon is fully biased in favor of the man that got her her job, Donald Trump. It’s an important reminder, that in the end, the judiciary and the law is ultimately just what a bunch of judges say it is.”

Why Are Unqualified Judges Making Decisions For The Nation?

A Trump-appointed judge who was deemed unqualified by the Bar Association struck down a national mask mandate for public transportation.

 

What to know about Judge Kathryn Mizelle, who struck down the travel mask mandate

Mizelle was nominated by former President Donald Trump in 2020 at age 33. The American Bar Association said at the time she wasn’t qualified because she hadn’t been practicing law for long enough.

Criticized for Lacking Professional Experience

Per the article above: “U.S. District Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle struck down the federal mask mandate for airplanes and other modes of public transportation Monday, writing in a 59-page ruling that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention had exceeded its authority and failed to follow proper rulemaking procedures.

That decision, which led to U.S. airlines and other transportation hubs to promptly drop their mask mandates, has elicited mixed responses from travelers and concern from experts.

The ABA recommends that nominees for federal judgeships have at least 12 years of experience practicing law — whereas Mizelle was nominated for her current position only eight years after passing the bar.

In a letter to the leaders of the Senate Judiciary Committee, the head of the ABA Standing Committee on the Federal Judiciary said that a majority of his group had deemed that Mizelle did “not meet the requisite minimum standard of experience necessary to perform the responsibilities required by the high office of a federal trial judge.”

Trump-appointed judge’s ruling just voided the mask mandate on planes. Her decision ignores or distorts the opinion of most medical experts and raises the danger of a surge in Covid-19 cases

 

Poll: Majority Of Americans Still Support Mask Mandate

“This Trump-appointed judge has brought us right back to the Trump years when we had a tyranny of the minority,” says Ayman Mohyeldin. “A minority of Americans voted for Trump, a minority approved of his mishandling of the pandemic, and a minority support dropping masks on public transport.”

Republicans Confirm Trump Judicial Pick, Lawrence VanDyke
Rated ‘Not Qualified’ For Being ‘Lazy,’ ‘Arrogant’

The American Bar Association took the rare step of rating VanDyke as “unqualified,” noting colleagues of his who were interviewed consistently gave this description: “arrogant, lazy, an ideologue and lacking in knowledge of the day-to-day practice, including procedural rules. There was a theme that the nominee lacks humility, has an ‘entitlement’ temperament, does not have an open mind, and does not always have a commitment to being candid and truthful.” Furthermore, they were concerned “about whether Mr. VanDyke would be fair to persons who are gay, lesbian or otherwise part of the LGBTQ community.”

VanDyke has a long history of extremist anti-LGBTQ rhetoric and actions. As a student at Harvard Law School, he wrote an op-ed claiming same-sex marriage would “hurt families and consequentially children and society.” At his hearing, VanDyke was provided with an opportunity to address his previous statements regarding same-sex marriage, specifically as to whether same-sex marriage damaged children. He pointedly refused to answer. VanDyke also refused to respond to Senators’ inquiries as to his legal approach to the intersection of LGBTQ rights and religious liberty. Emails from him reveal a Solicitor General who had little interest in engaging in the daily tasks of the office and instead an ideologue committed to advancing a political agenda.

Amy Coney Barrett is a far-right, activist judge threatens to upend the lives of millions of Americans

 

Amy Coney Barrett refused to say that the Supreme Court decision that protects access to birth control was rightly decided. When past Republican and Democratic-appointed nominees were asked the same question, their answers were very clear. What does Barrett have to hide?

 

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-election-2020/amy-coney-barrett-supreme-court-prison-case-rape-damages-b1109734.html

Per the above article; “Ms Barrett was reportedly one of three appellate judges who reversed a 2018 $6.7 million ruling against a Wisconsin county that ran the prison.

Milwaukee County was hit with the damages after one of their corrections officers was charged with repeatedly raping the 19-year-old inmate before and after her pregnancy.

Former prison guard Xavier Thicklen was charged with multiple counts of sexual assault in 2013, but they were dropped when he pleaded guilty to felony misconduct in public office.

“After a 19-year old pregnant prison inmate was repeatedly raped by a prison guard, Amy Coney Barrett ruled that the county responsible for the prison could not be held liable because the sexual assaults fell outside of the guard’s official duties,” Kyle Herrig, president of the progressive watchdog group Accountable.US, told Salon.com.

“Her judgment demonstrates a level of unconscionable cruelty that has no place on the high court.

“The only thing more concerning than the rush to confirm by Senate Republicans is what we are learning about Amy Coney Barrett’s extremist record”.

 

Religious group scrubs all references to Amy Coney Barrett from its website

People of Praise, a tiny charismatic Catholic organization, admits removing mentions and photos of Trump’s supreme court pick

Per the above article: “A religious organization tied to Amy Coney Barrett, Donald Trump’s supreme court nominee, sought to erase all mentions and photos of her from its website before she meets with lawmakers and faces questions at her Senate confirmation hearings. Barrett, a federal appeals judge, has declined to publicly discuss her decades-long affiliation with People of Praise, a Christian group that opposes abortion and holds that men are divinely ordained as the “head” of the family and faith.

Former members have said the group’s leaders teach that wives must submit to the will of their husbands. After an AP reporter emailed the group’s spokesman on Wednesday about members of Jesse Barrett’s family, his mother’s name was deleted from the primary contact for the South Bend, Indiana, branch. All issues of the organization’s magazine, Vine and Branches, were also removed.

The AP was able to track the deletions and access the missing information through the Internet Archive, a non-profit group that has saved digital versions of more than 330bn web pages since 1996. Barrett, 48, did not mention People of Praise in her 2017 or 2020 Senate judicial vetting questionnaires, the most recent of which was released on Tuesday. And a request to interview her made through the seventh circuit court of appeals in Chicago, where she currently serves as a judge, was declined”.

 

A former member of the secretive Catholic group People of Praise, known for its rigid gender roles and lifelong loyalty oaths, which apparent front-runner Judge Amy Coney Barrett is a member of is now speaking out against the organization. “Many call it a community, but I describe it as a cult,” says Coral Anika Theill, who was a member of People of Praise from 1979 to 1984.

Per info about Amy Barrett from demandjustice.org/stop-amy-coney-barrett;

Affordable Care Act

The Supreme Court is currently considering a case in which the justices could strike down the Affordable Care Act in its entirety, ending protections for Americans with preexisting conditions and kicking millions off their health insurance. Barrett has repeatedly signaled that she would support lawsuits to overturn the Affordable Care Act:

  • Barrett criticized Chief Justice Roberts for his opinion in NFIB v. Sebelius , which upheld the ACA against a constitutional challenge, saying he “pushed the Affordable Care Act beyond its plausible meaning to save the statute.”
  • In a 2015 NPR interview, Barrett expressed disagreement with the Supreme Court’s
    majority opinion in King v. Burwell, the second case in which the Court upheld the ACA, saying the dissent had “the better of the legal argument.”

Roe v. Wade

Barrett was the favorite choice of anti-choice activists because she has made clear that she does not respect the constitutional right to an abortion and would seek to overturn Roe v. Wade and curtail reproductive freedom.

  • In a 2003 article, she suggested Roe v. Wade was an “erroneous decision.”
  • In that article , Barrett wrote, “Courts and commentators have… thought about the kinds of reliance interests that justify keeping an erroneous decision on the books” — and the
    only decision she cited as an example of an “erroneous decision” was the Planned Parenthood v. Casey Supreme Court decision that specifically reaffirmed Roe v. Wade .
  • In another article, Barrett gave examples of “cases that no justice would overrule, even if she disagrees with the interpretive premises from which precedent proceeds”—but did not list Roe .
  • In 2018, the U.S.Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit struck down an Indiana law that would have prohibited abortions at any time during a pregnancy based on the reason
    a person is seeking an abortion. The court held that the law “ clearly violate[d] well-established Supreme Court precedent .” Barrett went on record saying she disagreed with the court’s ruling and strongly suggesting that the law was, in fact, constitutional.
  • In 2019, the Seventh Circuit struck down another blatantly unconstitutional law which would have required anyone under 18 to notify their parents prior to receiving an abortion, without exception. Barrett would have allowed the law to go into effect .
  • She was a member of Notre Dame University’s anti-abortion Faculty for Life.
  • Sen. Josh Hawley said that he would only vote for justices who have said that Roe v. Wade was wrongly decided and that Barrett “meets that standard.”
  • Barrett signed an open letter that criticized the Affordable Care Act’s birth control benefit as an “assault on religious liberty” and referred to common birth control methods as
    “abortion-drugs” and “embryo-destroying ‘five day after pill.’”

Workers’ Rights

  • Barrett has a troubling track record of siding with companies that engage in discrimination. Her record raises serious questions about how she would approach workers’ rights and civil rights issues on the bench.
  • Barrett has ruled for corporations over people 76% of the time.
  • Barrett upheld a ruling that allowed a company to “intentionally assign members of different races to [work at] different stores.” In a dissent, one judge called it a
    “separate-but-equal arrangement” and said it was “contrary to the position that the Supreme Court has taken in analogous equal protection cases as far back as Brown v. Board of Education.”
  • Barrett ruled that a company had not engaged in illegal age discrimination by having a maximum number of years of experience for a job posting, even though the requirement
    severely disadvantaged older workers.
  • Barrett dismissed a case brought by two employees against an employer who they claimed improperly fired them. The employees attempted to utilize the employers’ arbitration process, but eventually sued in court because the process had been stalled for years. Barrett’s dismissal kicked the employees out of federal court.

Gun Safety

Barrett’s record raises serious concerns about how she would approach gun safety laws. Last year, she dissented from a decision upholding a longstanding federal law that banned people who
had been convicted of felonies from possessing firearms, suggesting she takes a radical view on gun safety that could also lead her to strike down other, common-sense gun safety measures.

Immigrant Justice

Barrett has repeatedly ruled against the rights of immigrants, siding with the Trump administration on its public charge rule and repeatedly voting for overly harsh interpretations of immigration law.

  • Barrett voted to let the Trump administration impose a so-called “public charge” rule that would have prevented immigrants from receiving legal permanent residence status if they had availed themselves of certain public benefits to which, by law, they were entitled. The Trump rule vastly expanded the definition of “public charge,” thereby expanding the universe of immigrants who were deemed ineligible for legal permanent residence.
  • Barrett wrote the majority opinion rejecting an El Salvadoran immigrant’s request for protection from deportation. Though the immigrant in the case fled to the U.S. because he was the target of gang violence in his home country, his request for protection was rejected based on what the dissent described as “minor” and “trivial” inconsistencies in his testimony.
  • Barrett wrote an opinion dismissing the case of a U.S. citizen who claimed his due process rights were violated when a consular official denied his spouse a visa based on unsubstantiated and contradicted allegations of wrongdoing.
  • Barrett cast the deciding vote to allow for the immediate deportation of a legal permanent resident who had lived in the United States for over thirty years but who became deportable
    simply because of an arcane, and since-repealed, federal law that treats children of naturalized mothers and children of mothers who are citizens by birth differently.

LGBTQ+ Rights

Barrett’s track record suggests she could be on the side of reversing decades of progress when it comes to LGBTQ+ rights, a fact made all the more troubling by her stated willingness to disregard precedent when it conflicts with her own analysis.

  • She has defended the Supreme Court’s dissenters on the landmark marriage equality case of Obergefell v. Hodges, questioning the role of the court in deciding the case.
  • She has said Title IX protections do not extend to transgender Americans , claiming it’s a “strain on the text” to reach that interpretation.
  • She has misgendered transgender people, referring to a transgender women as “physiological males,” while casting doubt on transgender rights.
  • She has been paid $4200 for addressing a legal group affiliated with Alliance Defending Freedom , a group that advocates have called “arguably the most extreme anti-LGBT
    legal organization in the United States.”

Partisan Ties

Barrett has been a loyal footsoldier in the Republican Party’s attempts to subvert the democratic process in the interest of partisanship, working on the Bush v. Gore case and defending Republicans’ choice not to fill a Supreme Court vacancy during President Obama’s term in office.

  • Barrett started her legal career working to win the 2000 presidential election for George W. Bush . She describes Bush v. Gore as one of the most significant legal activities she has pursued. She even spent time in Florida researching and briefing the case.
  • Trump promised before his election in 2016 that his judges would all be “ picked by the Federalist Society .” Barrett was a member of the Federalist Society from 2005 to 2006 and rejoined the group in 2014, citing “the opportunity to speak to groups of interested, engaged students on topics of mutual interest.” A mere three years later, she was nominated by President Trump to serve on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit and within eleven months, she was added to Trump’s Supreme Court shortlist.
  • In 2016, Barrett took to the airwaves to defend the Republican Party’s unprecedented decision to block President Obama from choosing a replacement for the late Justice Antonin Scalia. After tersely reviewing the history of election-year Supreme Court nominations, distinguishing each example that failed to support the GOP’s position, she concluded that “the president has the power to nominate and the Senate has the power to act or not.”

Substituting Her Own Views Over Binding

Barrett’s radical views are all the more dangerous because she has made clear she would not be bound by the traditional principle that Supreme Court justices should defer to precedent set by past Supreme Court decisions. Barrett would be a dangerous Supreme Court justice because she would substitute her own views for long-standing law.

  • Barrett wrote that Supreme Court justices should not follow precedent they disagree with, but instead have “a duty” to substitute their own “best understanding” of the Constitution.
  • The Los Angeles Times noted that Barrett has been “unusually frank in her support for overturning precedents that are not in line with the Constitution.”

 

Supreme Court nominee served as ‘handmaid’ in religious group

Amy Coney Barrett was a high-ranking female leader in the People of Praise religious community.

Per the above article: “Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett served as a “handmaid,” the term then used for high-ranking female leaders in the People of Praise religious community, an old directory for the group’s members shows. Barrett has thus far refused to discuss her membership in the Christian organization, which opposes abortion and, according to former members, holds that men are divinely ordained as the “head” of both the family and faith, while it is the duty of wives to submit to them”.

 

Republicans have hijacked the highest court in the land. First, they stole a Supreme Court seat from President Obama. Then, they changed a 70-year old rule to install two of Donald Trump’s far-right justices and confirmed Brett Kavanaugh despite credible allegations that he committed sexual assault and lied under oath.

Now, the politicized Supreme Court is enacting a far-right, partisan agenda that favors corporate interests and Republican Party special interests. Reproductive freedom, civil rights, environmental justice, common sense gun safety laws, and our right to vote are all at risk. And the Court is eroding confidence in our system of government with ethical lapses and lack of transparency.

We need a Supreme Court that can be trusted to be fair, nonpolitical, and ethical. We need to reform the Supreme Court.

 

Amy Barrett being submitted for consideration of being a Supreme Court Judge within days of the passing of Ruth Ginsburg and within weeks of the 2020 election when Republicans BLOCKED President Obama’s nominee during the last year of his Presidency is an outrage.

 

  • The MAJORITY voted for Al Gore in 2000 by over 500,000 votes yet George W. Bush was crammed down the American Majority’s Throats. The election was STOLEN by the Electoral College, PLUS Florida Republicans illegally purged thousands of minorities off voters rolls and vote counting was stopped by the Republican Majority Supreme Court. The installation of George W. Bush caused the deaths of thousands of Americans and Iraqis due to the misguided and unjustified war with Iraq. Trillions was added to the National Debt due to George W. Bush’s incompetence.
  • Bush appointed 2 Justices against the will of the MAJORITY = 2 Supreme Court Seats Stolen
  • Republicans STOLE a 3rd Supreme Court Seat from the American Majority by blocking President Obama’s Supreme Court appointment stating “The people should decide” during an election year.
  • The MAJORITY voted for Hillary Clinton in 2016 by over 2.89 Million votes yet Donald Trump was crammed down the American Majority’s Throats. The election was once again STOLEN by the Electoral College which made the LOSER the “winner”.
  • Trump filled Obama’s Supreme Court Seat, plus a 4th Supreme Court Seat against the Will of the Majority
  • After Ruth Ginsburg died Republicans proved to be PARTISAN HYPOCRITES by committing to fill her seat weeks before the 2020 election with Conservative Supreme Court nominee Amy Barrett who is being appointed SOLELY because she’s expected to rule on issues like Roe V. Wade & “Affordable Healthcare” a certain way
  • Appointing & confirming “Justices” because they are expected to rule on issues a particular way is not justice… it’s a BANANA REPUBLIC RIGGED KANGAROO COURT
  • The Senate is RIGGED for Republicans and doesn’t represent the MAJORITY. Half of the US population lives in just nine states yet is only represented by 18 Senators. Democrats led Republicans by more than 12 million votes in Senate races in the 2018 election, yet suffered losses due to our UN-Democratic Rigged-for-Republicans Government
  • The Supreme Court is now Rigged for Republicans and doesn’t represent the MAJORITY. It’s just another tool to cram unpopular conservative ideologies down the Majority’s Throats.
  • Republicans are behaving like Fascist Authoritarians, who only care about power and cramming what they want down citizens throats, lacking decency, fairness, ethics and integrity
  • The MAJORITY of Americans are NOT Conservative and does not support BACKWARD, REPRESSIVE, CONSERVATIVE, 1800’s ideologies and values
  • The President SHOULD be elected by the MAJORITY
  • The Supreme Court SHOULD represent the values and will of the MAJORITY.

 

Unearthed video from 2016 in a CBS News interview with Amy Coney Barrett shows her warning of Supreme Court appointments that “could dramatically flip the balance of power in the court.”

Judge Barrett has the approval of ultraconservative and anti-abortion groups, and her views are out of step with the majority of Americans, who overwhelmingly support access to safe, legal abortion care. Seventy-seven percent of people in this country believe the Supreme Court should uphold Roe v. Wade. We need a Supreme Court justice who will honor precedent, including Roe v. Wade.

 

Judge Neil Gorsuch Would Have Let this Trucker Die!

On a freezing night in January 2009, Alphonse Maddin was driving a truck with a load of meat through Illinois. The brakes on the trailer froze. The temperature was 27 degrees below zero. As he waited for help, he started having trouble breathing. His skin was cracking and his speech was slurring.

He called his employer. They told him to remain with the truck. Instead, he detached the trailer from the truck and drove to safety. For saving his own life, he was fired by the company. He sued the company and Gorsuch was the only judge who sided against the trucker.

Serious questions remain about whether Kavanaugh lied to the Senate. Under Republican direction, the Senate requested and reviewed only a small fraction of Kavanaugh’s records, and what it did receive was provided through a partisan Republican lawyer instead of by the nonpartisan professionals at the National Archives. The few documents that were made public show that Kavanaugh was less than forthcoming, and probably outright untruthful, on a number of issues. Leaked emails have been damning.

Ron DeSantis’ War On Woke Exposed as PRO-Injustice

Members of Ron DeSantis Staff admitted in court that “Wokeness” means activism against social injustice and injustices in the criminal justice system. Therefore when DeSantis says “Florida is the place where woke goes to die”, he’s for anti-awareness, anti-knowledge and anti-truth. He wants systemic injustices UPHELD, he’s PRO-status quo, PRO-injustice and he’s against change in injustices.

In other words, Republicans “War on Woke” means “War on Freedom”.

DeSantis and Republicans wants everyone to stay “asleep” and do nothing to change injustice and the status quo. Those who speaks out against DeSantis and Florida Republicans, like Disney or the Tampa Bay Rays gets PUNISHED (as detailed in videos below). DeSantis also passed Anti-Protest laws to punish and criminalize protesting. This is classic Anti-democratic, Authoritarian, Fascist, Banana Republic Dictator behavior.

 

DeSantis Struggles To Attract Voters As ‘War On Woke’ Backfires

According to a new poll, a majority of Americans actually like whatever “woke” means, and that’s a big problem for people like Ron DeSantis. As the Florida governor returns from a test trip to Iowa, he is finding it hard to attract supporters who aren’t already diehard Republicans. You can win a primary that way, but you will get stomped in a general election with nothing more than your base to back you up.

Today’s Republicans are about TAKING AWAY people’s rights and forcing their OPPRESSIVE POLICIES down people’s throats. They belong in RUSSIA or NORTH KOREA.

 

In Andrew Warren suspension trial, Gov. DeSantis officials answer: What does ‘woke’ mean?

‘It’s a slang term for activism, progressive activism.’

Per the above article: “During the three-day trial this week challenging Gov. Ron DeSantis’ suspension of Hillsborough County State Attorney Andrew Warren, attorneys for Warren were able to put that question to aides for DeSantis, who called Florida the place where “woke goes to die” in his victory speech after being reelected last month.

Jean-Jacques Cabou, Warren’s attorney, noted DeSantis referred to Warren in his announcement of the suspension as a “woke ideologue” who “masqueraded” as a prosecutor. Then he asked some DeSantis officials what “woke” means to them.

Taryn Fenske, DeSantis’ Communications Director said “woke” was a “slang term for activism … progressive activism” and a general belief in systemic injustices in the country.

Ryan Newman, DeSantis’ General Counsel, echoed the part about systemic injustices, specifically regarding the criminal justice system.

“To me it means someone who believes that there are systemic injustices in the criminal justice system and on that basis they can decline to fully enforce and uphold the law,” Newman said.

Asked what “woke” means more generally, Newman said “it would be the belief there are systemic injustices in American society and the need to address them.”

Newman added that DeSantis doesn’t believe there are systemic injustices in the U.S. He also emphasized he believed Warren’s “wokeism” led him to sign the pledge not to prosecute abortion crimes, the primary factor that led to his suspension.

 

 

All you hear out of Republicans these days is “WOKE” this and “WOKE” that because they don’t have ANY policies to talk about which will help improve people’s lives. People are FED UP with Republican’s “WOKE” and Culture Wars Bullshit!

 

A GOP war on ‘woke’? Most Americans view the term as a positive, USA TODAY/Ipsos Poll finds

By 56%-39%, Americans say ‘woke’ means being aware of social injustice, not being overly politically correct.

Per the above article; “Republican presidential hopefuls are vowing to wage a war on “woke,” but a new USA TODAY/Ipsos Poll finds a majority of Americans are inclined to see the word as a positive attribute, not a negative one. Fifty-six percent of those surveyed say the term means “to be informed, educated on, and aware of social injustices.” That includes not only three-fourths of Democrats but also more than a third of Republicans”.

“Overall, 39% say instead that the word reflects what has become the GOP political definition, “to be overly politically correct and police others’ words.” That’s the view of 56% of Republicans. Independents, by 51%-45%, say “woke” means being aware of social injustice, not being overly politically correct. Most Americans understand that to be woke is to be tuned in to injustices around us,” said Cliff Young of Ipsos”.

“The findings raise questions about whether Republican campaign promises to ban policies at schools and workplaces they denounce as “woke” could boost a contender in the party’s primaries but put them at odds with broader public opinion in the general election”.

 

Judge Blocks DeSantis’ ‘Stop WOKE Act’ From Applying To Colleges

Court BLOCKS the Stop WOKE Act from being enforced in higher education.

The ACLU, the ACLU of Florida, the Legal Defense Fund, and Ballard Spahr filed a lawsuit against the unconstitutional Stop W.O.K.E. Act (HB 7) in August, which threatened Floridians’ First Amendment rights by censoring diverse viewpoints in our classrooms. This education censorship law is just the latest in the government’s attack on the First Amendment in classrooms. It also violates the Fourteenth Amendment’s Equal Protection Clause as Black educators, students, and historical events are disproportionately targeted by this law.

In its ruling, the court did not mince words, calling this shameful legislation “positively dystopian.”

“The law officially bans professors from expressing disfavored viewpoints in university classrooms while permitting unfettered expression of the opposite viewpoints. Defendants argue that, under this Act, professors enjoy ‘academic freedom’ so long as they express only those viewpoints of which the State approves. This is positively dystopian. It should go without saying that ‘[i]f liberty means anything at all it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.’”

Florida is one of over a dozen states across the country that have passed laws aimed at censoring discussions around race and gender in the classroom. This is a huge victory for everyone who values academic freedom and recognizes the value of inclusive education.

 

Florida Gov Ron DeSantis & Republican’s Culture Wars Called Out

 

 

GOP’s ‘Woke’ war shredded by the singer behind ‘stay woke,’ Singer Erykah Badu

Many Republicans attack what they call “woke” politics, from Gov. DeSantis to former President Trump. Singer Erykah Badu, who first coined the term “woke” in her 2008 song “Master Teacher,” responds and offers context on the meaning of the term in an interview with MSNBC’s Ari Melber.

 

Historian Calls Ron DeSantis the ‘Florida Fascist’

 

Anti-Democratic Fascist Republicans are passing Laws banning books, limiting what Teachers can Teach and what can be discussed with huge fines of up to $10,000 for violations

Florida Republican Governor Ron DeSantis wants to put cameras in classrooms. This short clip shows how oppressive and unbearable life could become unless Republicans are STOPPED and VOTED OUT.

 

Florida state attorney Andrew Warren is suing Governor Ron DeSantis, after DeSantis removed him from office for comments he made about abortion and gender-affirming medical care.

The fact that DeSantis had Florida state attorney Andrew Warren removed for comments he made about abortion and gender-affirming medical care proves DeSantis is AGAINST abortion and gender-affirming medical care. And it’s more proof that DeSantis behaves like a totalitarian, fascist, authoritarian, dictator.

 

FL State Attorney Suspended For Saying He Won’t Enforce Restrictions On Abortion

Florida Gov. DeSantis suspended a state attorney who said he won’t enforce restrictions on abortion and gender therapy. Hillsborough County state attorney Andrew Warren says “this is more than just about suspending an elected official.”

Republican Ron DeSantis Punishes Disney and Tampa Bay Rays for Exercising Freedom of Speech

Ron Desantis Punishes Disney for exercising their Freedom of Speech

Walt Disney World has a special status that allows it to operate and run its Orlando theme parks as we know it. But because Disney denounced Florida’s so-called “Don’t Say Gay” bill, state republicans are now calling to revoke Disney’s special status

 

Republicans are FABRICATING a “Woke Disney” Culture War for Profit

Jesse talks about the latest culture war absurdity related to the claim from conservatives that Disney is “WOKE.” It seems a bit coincidental that just as they are attacking Disney, they are also trying to cash in on content to brainwash kids that they are now creating and selling to conservative parents.

 

DeSantis Brazenly Admits To Punishing Disney

The GOP embrace of authoritarianism, and how Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is a prime example of this, are discussed by Democratic candidate for governor of Florida, Rep. Charlie Crist

 

‘A Solution In Search Of A Problem’: DeSantis Goes After Disney’s Special Status

Fallout over Florida’s controversial new law that critics have called the ‘Don’t Say Gay’ bill continues. This is another example of how Republicans focus on divisive social issues instead of governing and actually doing things to improve people’s lives.

 

BIG Government “Solutions In Search Of A Problem” laws have become the hallmark of the Florida Republican Ron DeSantis’ Anti-Democratic Fascist Regime. Here’s examples;

  • Dystopian Laws Attacking Freedom of Speech to SILENCE & SUE Critics
  • Culture Wars and “Woke” BULLSHIT
  • Anti-choice Laws against Women’s Rights
  • Laws limiting what can be discussed in classrooms, such as the “Don’t say Gay” law. These laws doesn’t fix any existing problems, they’re a “Solution in Search of a Problem” and unnecessary BIG Government regulations & restrictions which makes teachers jobs more difficult.
  • Law mandating public colleges and universities survey students and faculty about their Political Beliefs (FL HB 233)
  • Teachers must withhold classroom library books until they can be individually reviewed for certification or face being charged with a third-degree felony if violated. (Bill 1467)
  • DeSantis Hostile Takeover of Liberal New College of Florida is following the playbook of Fascist Autocrat Dictator of Hungary Viktor Orban by taking control of Education
  • Indoctrinate Educators with Radical Right Wing Ideology. (Per news reports) Encouraged by DeSantis, Christian nationalist values and an “originalist” interpretation of the U.S. Constitution is now being taught in Florida Schools.
  • Florida HB 999 Republican plan to restrict the way history is taught at Florida’s colleges and universities is being condemned by academics & historians across the U.S. (Another example of Fascist, Authoritarian policies).
  • DeSantis has publicly called for putting cameras and microphones into classrooms to monitor teachers. He wants more surveillance in every part of our lives, empowering legislators to police classrooms, doctor’s offices, the workplace.
  • Voting Police to intimidate people so they’re afraid to vote in Florida
  • Florida Employees Threatened With Demotions If They Criticize DeSantis
  • Bill to eliminate the Democrat Party in the State of Florida, thereby creating One Party Rule similar to how Dictator Victor Orbán took over the once Democratic government in Hungary
  • Florida ‘Bloggers Bill’ which would require anyone who writes about Florida Republicans and DeSantis to register with the state and put on an ‘enemies list’. This is another BLATANT violation of the 1st Amendment and attempt to SILENCE critics. This is the same Anti-Democratic, Fascist Authoritarian tactic used by the Nazi German Propaganda Ministry in 1933 called the “Editors Law” and in 2014 by War Criminal Dictator Vladimir Putin, forcing bloggers in Russia to register with the Russian Media office.
  • Attacking Freedom of Speech – Bill HB 991 to significantly weaken libel laws. Critics believe this is an attempt to give Ron DeSantis even more power to sue his critics for saying things he doesn’t like. Bill 991 also gives Florida residents the right to sue others (both in the state or elsewhere in the U.S.) who describe their actions online as transphobic or homophobic, for $35,000 and would not allow the truth to be used in defenses against such lawsuits.
  • Retaliated against Disney for exercising their First Amendment Right to Freedom of Speech, stripping Disney of 50+ years self-governing authority after Disney stated opposition to the ‘Don’t say Gay’ law which limits discussing LGBTQ issues in schools.
  • Right Wing figures installed on the board of former Disney district. This is the same tactics used in Anti-Democratic Fascists Dictatorships
  • Retaliated against the Tampa Bay Rays for exercising their First Amendment Right to Freedom of Speech by blocking state money to their training facility after team tweeted against gun violence
  • Florida Police raided the home of former Covid-19 Scientist Rebekah Jones after her data contradicted DeSantis’ Covid Data claims.
  • Transgender athlete discrimination Laws
  • Florida Senate Bill 254 would allow the state to take Trans children receiving gender-affirming care away from Parents
  • Anti-Protesting Laws making protesting a felony & allowing protestors can be run over & killed with no consequences. This law was passed to silence and intimidate anyone who dare protest and raise objections to Republican’s oppression (similar to Russia and North Korea)
  • DeSantis wants his own State Militia which would only answer to him and “not be encumbered to the federal government.”
  • Felons Victimized by Republicans and DeSantis “Voter Fraud Crackdown”.  Per an article at commondreams.org, “Most who were arrested were approved by the Florida Department of Elections, which sent their voter registration cards ahead of the 2020 elections. All were charged with third-degree felony voter fraud, a crime punishable by as many as five years behind bars and up to a $5,000 fine. The ACLU of Florida stated, “The arrests are a grotesque abuse of power by Gov. DeSantis”.
  • Using Migrants as Props. Per an article at theguardian.com, “DeSantis should be prosecuted for his treatment of immigrants. Those conspiring with him appear to have acted criminally under Texas law. Title 5, section 20 of the Texas penal code defines the crime of unlawful restraint. Under the statute, a person is restrained if their movement is restricted without their consent by, among other means, moving the person from one place to another. Restraint is without consent “if it is accompanied … by deception”. Under the statute, the violation is a class A misdemeanor, unless the person restrained is younger than 17, in which case it is a felony. According to reporting, there were children among those criminally transported to Martha’s Vineyard”.
  • DeSantis fought for and was given the authority to redraw Congressional districts to rig elections in Republican’s favor. This resulted in House Seats being stolen from Democrats. Another example of how Republicans know they can’t win elections unless they CHEAT because their policies are UNPOPULAR.

The Right Wants Freedom For Themselves but Not For Others

 

DeSantis unleashes vengeance on Disney. This is the stuff of Nixon’s enemies list | Editorial

In an act of pure vengeance, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis used his powers last week to expand the legislative special session and strip Walt Disney World of the special taxing district that independently governs it.

Per the above article: “In an act of pure vengeance, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis announced Tuesday that he was using his powers to expand this week’s special session in a push to strip Walt Disney World of the special taxing district that independently governs it. It’s clear that the governor has been nursing a towering grudge against Disney ever since the company had the nerve to listen to its employees and — belatedly, but rightly — speak out against the “Don’t say gay” bill, withholding political campaign contributions in Florida. And it may be that the taxing district, which has been around since 1967 and encompasses two cities, is an outdated concept. The district functions much like a government, with the ability to issue tax-free bonds, provide police and fire service and, notably, build its own nuclear power plant”.

“This is the stuff of Richard Nixon and his enemies list. For those who may not remember, the country’s 37th president kept a list of enemies that was revealed during the Watergate scandal. Its purpose, according to Nixon’s assistant in a 1971 memo, was to plan “how we can use the available federal machinery to screw our political enemies.” And that’s what’s going on here”.

“He’s covering his tracks, though with the most transparent of excuses, by saying that he wants the Legislature to consider getting rid of all special taxing districts that were enacted before 1968 and haven’t been reestablished since. So far it looks like that would include just a handful of districts along with Disney’s Reedy Creek Improvement District. House Speaker Chris Sprowls defended the governor’s move, saying the House has long contemplated this action. That doesn’t pass the smell test. In the war between Disney and DeSantis, this isn’t a grenade, it’s a precision missile strike, and it’s aimed right at Central Florida”.

“Back in 1971, Nixon’s list had 20 names on it. Over the next few years, it grew to 576 names. We all know how that ended. Now we have DeSantis’ frightening misuse of power. It must stop here, and that starts with lawmakers stiffening their backbones. Today, it’s Disney. Tomorrow, who knows?”

 

What is Florida’s ‘Don’t Say Gay’ Law? This law stigmatizes LGBTQ people, isolates LGBTQ kids, and makes teachers fearful of providing safe, inclusive classrooms.

 

DeSantis who pretends to celebrate free speech and business, used the power of his government to PUNISH Tampa Bay Rays after they spoke out in support of gun safety.

 

Gov. Ron DeSantis, R-Fla., vetoed $35 million in state funding for a new Tampa Bay Rays training facility reportedly due to the team tweeting awareness about gun violence, according to reports.

 

 

All the Ways Republicans Are Trying to Make Protesting a Crime

So far this year, GOP lawmakers in 32 states have introduced over 80 anti-protest bills. This segment is a round-up of those bills, from the ones that could take your student loans to the ones that could make it a crime to taunt a cop. It explores the GOP’s go-to way of responding to protests: making them a crime.

This is another example of how Republicans are Anti-Democratic Authoritarian Fascist who are imposing harsh prison sentences to deter freedom of speech, protesting & decent, similar to dictatorships like China, North Korea and Russia.

 

Florida Republicans pass Anti-Democratic Authoritarian “Rioting Bill” to quash Freedom of Speech.

 

Republicans are destroying democracy & violating the First Amendment by passing over 90 laws to make protesting a felony offense and immunity to motorist who runs over & kills protestors.

This what the United States is becoming under REPUBLICAN rule… a Anti-Democratic POLICE STATE where protesting can get you TASED, BEATEN, ARRESTED and MURDERED

 

REPUBLICAN’S AMERICA… a POLICE state where Citizens are ATTACKED and MURDERED by Police, the Military, Unidentified Secret Police Attacking and Illegally Detaining Citizens

 

Thanks to Republicans, the U.S. incarcerates more people than any other country in the world… even more than Communist China.

New York Times: Trump sought tax investigations of political foes | CNN Politics

Former President Donald Trump repeatedly told his onetime White House chief of staff, John Kelly, that he wanted the Internal Revenue Service to investigate his political foes, Kelly told The New York Times.

Per the above article: “Former President Donald Trump repeatedly told his onetime White House chief of staff, John Kelly, that he wanted the Internal Revenue Service to investigate his political foes, Kelly told The New York Times.

Among the people Trump wanted to “get the I.R.S. on” were former FBI Director James Comey and former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, Kelly told the newspaper.

“I would say, ‘It’s inappropriate, it’s illegal, it’s against their integrity and the I.R.S. knows what it’s doing and it’s not a good idea,’” Kelly said he told Trump, according to the Times. “Yeah, but they’re writing bad things about me,” Trump responded, according to Kelly.

McCabe and Comey, both fierce critics of Trump, were ultimately selected by the Internal Revenue Service for an intensive tax audit. The Times noted earlier this year that the odds of any one person being selected for the audit are about one in 30,600, raising questions about how two of Trump’s most visible critics were both selected”.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is No ‘Fighter Anointed By God’

A Propaganda Political ad was released for Florida Republican Governor Ron DeSantis in 2022 claiming DeSantis is a Fighter who was ‘Anointed By God’. This ad shows what a Delusional, Self Aggrandizing, Radical Right Wing Religious Fanatic nutcase Ron DeSantis is.

3 Ways Christianity Was Largely Responsible For The Holocaust

While Christianity wasn’t the sole catalyst for the Holocaust, there is no doubt that Christianity set the stage for the Holocaust to happen.

Per the above article; “Christianity was culturally oppressive to the Jews – In the eyes of the Christian church, Jews were heretics and Jesus-killers. Since they rejected the teachings of salvation, they deserved to go to Hell. Hitler hijacked German Christians’ existing prejudice towards Jews.

Hitler merely played on the prejudices created by Christianity to blame the problems that were largely created by Christianity, on the Jews. Thus, Christianity played a central role in setting the stage for the Holocaust”.

Just like German Christians…. American Christian Nationalists condone hate, violence and murder. Similar to Hitler who stated, “I am fighting for the work of the Lord”, Christian Nationalists use religion to justify their extreme conduct while believing “God is on they’re side”.

 

RNC Chairman Torches DeSantis ‘God made a fighter ad’

Former RNC chairman Michael Steele issued a scathing condemnation of the ad on MSNBC’s Morning Show, calling it “ass-backwards blasphemy.” “I don’t need Ron DeSantis to be Christ. I just need him to be governor, and that’s the problem,” Steele said.

Former GOP communications director Tara Setmayer called him “Ron DeLusional,” saying the governor — who is running for reelection with a comfortable lead but is rumored to seek the Republican nomination for president in 2024 — may be looking to knock off a Trump challenge. “He thinks he’s going to out-Trump Trump with this God complex savior thing going on? Trump already has the monopoly on that,”

Steve Schmidt, a former GOP operative who has been critical of the far-right wing of the party, calls the ad “psychotic.” He writes that DeSantis,has clearly developed a God complex in Tallahassee. This Ron DeSantis ad is a cheap knock-off of the famous Paul Harvey meditation “So God Made a Farmer,” but this time, it is God who has sent the rest of us the pugilistic and cherubic Governor of Florida. It gives a window into a marriage dynamic that is interesting and disturbing. No one really knows what goes on in anyone else’s marriage, but we do know that in the DeSantis coupling there is a fair amount of idolatry around Ron Desantis. He is feeling flush with power and this ad reinforces, and is evidence of it”.

 

DeSantis ‘God made a fighter’ Political Ad deceptively makes it seem he’s fighting for citizens when he’s actually fighting for  corporations (like most Republicans) and to advance his own political career.

Per the description from YouTube: “Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is at the center of a major corporate corruption scandal. DeSantis has signed off on $5.7 billion in tax write-offs and giveaways to corporation, while raising taxes on working people by $1 billion. In return, he’s banked about $30 million from Wall Street and other corporate donors”

 

There’s nothing Godly or Christian about bullying and mistreating people. Bullying Students for Wearing Masks shows he’s not a ‘Fighter Anointed By God’… he’s a mean spirited bully obsessed with POWER and CONTROL.

 

DeSantis who pretends to celebrate free speech and business, used the power of his government to retaliate against the Tampa Bay Rays after exercising their first amend rights to freedom of speech by supporting gun safety More proof DeSantis is mean spirited, vindictive bully… not a ‘Fighter Anointed By God’.

 

 

When Disney’s chief executive Bob Chapek exercised his First Amendment Right to Freedom of Speech by criticizing the “Don’t say Gay” law, DeSantis and Florida Republicans RETALIATED by revoking Disney World’s designation as a special tax district which allowed Disney to self-govern the 25,000-acre resort since its founding. Using the Government to Punish people who speaks out against Government policies is Anti-Democratic, Authoritarian FASCISM

 

DeSantis’ abuse of power and Florida’s drift from democracy to autocracy | Column

It is the governor, not ousted Hillsborough State Attorney Andrew Warren, who is neglecting his duties.

Per the above article: “When will we know when we have drifted from a democracy to rule by an autocrat? If you haven’t been paying attention, last week’s action by Gov. Ron DeSantis to suspend highly regarded and twice-elected Hillsborough County State Attorney Andrew Warren for “neglect of duty” and “incompetence” should tell you that we are there.

Warren’s real offense: He is a critic of DeSantis’ distracting culture war obsessions.

Clearly, DeSantis doesn’t like Warren’s vision for a reformed criminal justice system, one that is less racially biased and more efficient — prioritizing prosecution of crimes against persons and property, rather than on low-level crimes that have filled jails and prisons with young Black men. Clearly, the governor is annoyed by Warren’s use of his lawful discretion to set prosecutorial priorities that don’t further DeSantis’ culture war crusades.

In 2010, the people again took control of their constitution and overwhelmingly approved the Fair District amendments, requiring that legislative districts not be “drawn to favor or disfavor an incumbent or political party,” nor “to deny racial or language minorities the equal opportunity to participate in the political process and elect representatives of their choice.”

Nevertheless, the governor forced the Legislature to adopt his redistricting map that clearly committed both transgressions: partisan gerrymandering and diminishing the political power of racial minorities. Again, so much for the will of the people.

These assaults on our constitutional values of privacy and fair electoral process are DeSantis’ neglect of duty — and should merit his removal from office by the voters in November”.

Lying lips are an abomination to the Lord, but those who act faithfully are his delight.

Religious Extremists Mix Trump Worship With Christian Nationalism

Mehdi Hasan looks at how religious extremists in the Christian nationalist movement have cast Donald Trump as a messianic figure and threaten to make democracy secondary to empowering Donald Trump as an expression of divine will.

 

Republicans shares many of the same Anti-democratic Fascist ideals and Christian Nationalist values as Putin / Russia such as disdain for LGBTQ’s and Democracy. Proof is how they passed laws in every state they control making it difficult for minorities to vote and laws discriminating against LGBTQ’s.  This is why Putin / Russia helped install Trump as President in 2016 and why Republicans LOVE Putin & Russia as explained in the above video.

 

Republican Christian Nationalists (similar the Taliban and the radical Iranian Islamic Republic) want anti-democratic fascist one-party-rule and strict Anti-Abortion Laws to charge a woman with murder who aborts a pregnancy for any reason.

 

The Dangerous New Movement In Right-Wing America

Video shows Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis making Republican Christian Nationalist statements

 

Per Wikipedia, the definition of Fascism is; “a form of radical authoritarian ultranationalism, characterized by dictatorial power, forcible suppression of opposition and control of industry and commerce. Fascists believe that liberal democracy is obsolete and they regard the complete mobilization of society under a totalitarian one-party state as necessary to prepare a nation for armed conflict and to respond effectively to economic difficulties. Such a state is led by a strong leader—such as a dictator and a martial government composed of the members of the governing fascist party”.

Republicans are proving they’re Anti-Democratic Authoritarian Fascist, rigging elections by Gerrymandering, Voter Obstruction, Voter Purges, Passed laws putting partisans in charge of Counting the Votes so they can Overturn Election Results, Decreasing Drop Boxes, Decreasing the days people can vote and making it illegal to give Food or Water to people waiting in the long lines in urban areas they’re responsible for causing.

Republicans refuse to eliminate the UN-Democratic Electoral College because they know they couldn’t win a Presidential election on a “One person, one vote” basis whereby the person who gets the most votes wins. They’re dependent on the UN-Democratic Electoral College which has made 2 of their unpopular candidates President who LOST the popular vote… Trump who lost by 2.8 millions votes in 2016 and George W. Bush who lost by 600,000 votes in 2000.

This isn’t Democracy… it’s the type of rigged system you find in Dictator Banana Republic where the LOSER is declared the “winner”.

 

Rules of the Demagogue

 

Republicans fit all of the Characteristics of Fascism described below

Fourteen Characteristics of Fascism Article by Dr. Lawrence Britt

1. Disdain for the Recognition of Human Rights – Because of fear of enemies and the need for security, the people in fascist regimes are persuaded that human rights can be ignored in certain cases because of “need.” The people tend to look the other way or even approve of torture, summary executions, assassinations, long incarcerations of prisoners, etc.

2. Identification of Enemies/Scapegoats as a Unifying Cause – The people are rallied into a unifying patriotic frenzy over the need to eliminate a perceived common threat or foe: racial , ethnic or religious minorities; liberals; communists; socialists, terrorists, etc.

3. Supremacy of the Military – Even when there are widespread domestic problems, the military is given a disproportionate amount of government funding, and the domestic agenda is neglected. Soldiers and military service are glamorized.

4. Rampant Sexism – The governments of fascist nations tend to be almost exclusively male-dominated. Under fascist regimes, traditional gender roles are made more rigid. Divorce, abortion and homosexuality are suppressed and the state is represented as the ultimate guardian of the family institution.

5. Controlled Mass Media – Sometimes to media is directly controlled by the government, but in other cases, the media is indirectly controlled by government regulation, or sympathetic media spokespeople and executives. Censorship, especially in war time, is very common.

6. Obsession with National Security – Fear is used as a motivational tool by the government over the masses.

7. Religion and Government are Intertwined – Governments in fascist nations tend to use the most common religion in the nation as a tool to manipulate public opinion. Religious rhetoric and terminology is common from government leaders, even when the major tenets of the religion are diametrically opposed to the government’s policies or actions.

8. Corporate Power is Protected – The industrial and business aristocracy of a fascist nation often are the ones who put the government leaders into power, creating a mutually beneficial business/government relationship and power elite.

9. Labor Power is Suppressed – Because the organizing power of labor is the only real threat to a fascist government, labor unions are either eliminated entirely, or are severely suppressed.

10. Disdain for Intellectuals and the Arts – Fascist nations tend to promote and tolerate open hostility to higher education, and academia. It is not uncommon for professors and other academics to be censored or even arrested. Free expression in the arts and letters is openly attacked.

11. Obsession with Crime and Punishment – Under fascist regimes, the police are given almost limitless power to enforce laws. The people are often willing to overlook police abuses and even forego civil liberties in the name of patriotism. There is often a national police force with virtually unlimited power in fascist nations.

12. Rampant Cronyism and Corruption – Fascist regimes almost always are governed by groups of friends and associates who appoint each other to government positions and use governmental power and authority to protect their friends from accountability. It is not uncommon in fascist regimes for national resources and even treasures to be appropriated or even outright stolen by government leaders.

13. Manipulate & Control elections – Sometimes elections in fascist nations are a complete sham. Other times elections are manipulated by smear campaigns against or even assassination of opposition candidates, use of legislation to control voting numbers or political district boundaries, and manipulation of the media. Fascist nations also typically use their judiciaries to manipulate & control elections.

14. Powerful and Continuing Nationalism – Fascist regimes tend to make constant use of patriotic mottos, slogans, symbols, songs, and other paraphernalia. Flags are seen everywhere, as are flag symbols on clothing and in public displays.

Trump Supporters Are Excited By The Idea Of Him Being A Dictator

Donald Trump did exactly what most of us expected, and he actually convinced his base that he SHOULD be a dictator if he gets back into office, and that it is somehow a good thing to trample on the Constitution. Ever since Trump first made his dictator comments, his supporters have been quick to defend and ultimately offer their praise of the comments, and that part isn’t dying down, either. A new poll also shows that a strong number of Iowa voters say that his rhetoric makes it MORE likely that they will support him.

Ron DeSantis Rigged House Seats by Gerrymandering

Radical Right Wing Republican Ron DeSantis Rigged and stole House of Representative Seats from Democrats by Gerrymandering.

 

Florida Republican Gov DeSantis pushes redistricting map that splits up Black voters

DeSantis’ proposed map also splits up Black voters around the Orlando area and proposes the creation of 18 Republican-leaning and eight Democrat-leaning seats, helping to eliminate Democrats’ national redistricting advantage.

 

 

Florida Republican Gov DeSantis dissolved 4 black voting districts (violating the Florida constitution), helped House Republicans obtain a undeserved, rigged Majority.

This type of Election Rigging is DESTROYING Democracy and Freedom in the United States and is why ALL REPUBLICANS should be voted OUT.

 

Republicans couldn’t hold a majority in the United States House of Representatives without Gerrymandering. The only way they can “win” is by CHEATING and RIGGING elections in their favor.

 

Gerrymandering, a legal form of vote stealing, more entrenched now than ever

Republicans, who control a substantial majority of state legislatures, benefit significantly.

Per the above article: “In June 2019, the U.S. Supreme Court overruled a unanimous U.S. District Court decision that partisan gerrymandering in North Carolina violated the Equal Protection clause of the 14th Amendment to the Constitution. Although Chief Justice John Roberts acknowledged that the practice leads to results that “reasonably seem unjust,” he maintained that partisan gerrymandering is a “political question,” beyond the reach of federal courts. Each state, Roberts indicated, should manage its own redistricting process.

Four justices dissented. In an emotional statement, which she read from the bench, Elena Kagan warned, “Left unchecked as the court does today, gerrymanderers like these may irreparably damage our system of government.”

 

The GOP’s Bid to Claim a Rigged House Majority

Voters repudiated the GOP congressional agenda. Court-sanctioned gerrymanders made sure it didn’t matter.

Per the above article: “An aggressive—and likely unconstitutional—partisan and racial gerrymander demanded by Governor Ron DeSantis helped provide Republicans with four of those seats from Florida alone. Maps that likely violated Voting Rights Act (VRA) protections against racial gerrymanders were allowed to proceed in Alabama, Georgia, and Louisiana”.

“Pretty soon, these gift-wrapped seats begin to add up, especially when the national voting margins seem to be tight. Four seats in Florida, three across the Deep South, another handful from Texas and Ohio, one in Wisconsin, a pickup in Iowa won from playing hardball with the state’s independent commission, one in Arizona from hijacking that state’s “independent” in name only commission, another gain in Tennessee by cracking Nashville in half: More than a dozen newly Republican seats came not from ousting Democratic incumbents but by redrawing districts to their advantage”.

 

Governor tainting Congressional maps

Despite state and federal laws designed to ensure voting equity and access. Gov. Ron DeSantis interjects partisanship into Congressional redistricting.

Per the above article: “The nonpartisan Princeton Gerrymandering Project, which analyzes redistricting nationwide to understand and eliminate partisan gerrymandering, rates DeSantis’ plan an “F” for partisan fairness. But that was the whole idea, to tilt the board to favor his party, rather than follow the federal Voting Rights Act of 1965 and Florida’s Fair Districts amendments, which were meant to prevent such undemocratic game-playing.

If DeSantis follows through on his promise to veto the Florida Legislature’s maps and pushes the issue into the courts, he gains a chance to skew elections for years to come, if he succeeds in toppling precedents that favor fairness to minority voters.

A righteous politician might support policies that win votes by advocating equity and opportunity for all. In other words, if DeSantis and his party just did the right thing, they wouldn’t have to cheat. Instead our governor crafts ever-more-intricate ways to shunt minorities away from ballot boxes.

The maneuver follows a wave of voter suppression efforts across Florida and the nation to make ballot drop boxes less accessible, to add voter identification burdens where there’s no hint of fraud and to make it difficult or illegal for voters’ rights groups to pick up and drop off ballots for the elderly and infirm.

There’s one reason for all of this and one reason alone: African-Americans know that by and large, Republican candidates don’t have their interests in mind, so Republicans seek out every slimy, legalistic way they can to minimize those likely Democratic votes”.

 

Analysis: Ron DeSantis is drawing Democrats out of the equation in Florida | CNN Politics

Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis has proposed an aggressively partisan redrawing of the state’s congressional boundaries that will likely help his party pick up four seats in the House this November. Here’s what experts have to say about this type of gerrymandering.

Per the above article: “Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis has proposed an aggressively partisan redrawing of the state’s congressional boundaries that will likely help his party pick up four seats in the US House of Representatives this November.

CNN’s Steve Contorno reports: “Like previous maps submitted by DeSantis’ office, the latest offering would likely reduce the number of districts where Black voters are a plurality and would make it difficult for Democrats to win anywhere north of Orlando or outside major cities.”

The consequences for the country are severe. Lawmakers in both parties speaking candidly admit that gerrymandering House districts is one of the big reasons that the chamber has become more partisan over the last several decades”.

Florida Lawmaker Says Gerrymandered State Maps Are Part of Racist Strategy, “Not Just a Culture War”

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signed into law a gerrymandered voting map that virtually guarantees Republicans four more seats in Congress while likely cutting the number of Black Democrats elected. The measure passed along party lines Thursday but was delayed when Black Florida lawmakers staged an impromptu sit-in protest. “Republicans cannot continue to disenfranchise Black voters,” says state Senator Shevrin Jones, a Democratic member of Florida’s Legislative Black Caucus who took part in the protest and who calls the gerrymandering part of a larger suite of “racist tactics” enacted by Republicans across the country.

DeSantis Wants to Bar Federal Election Monitors From Florida’s Bluest Counties

The DOJ is sending monitors to polling places to ensure federal election laws are being followed.

Per the above article: “Far right Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis is attempting to bar federal monitors from being able to enter polling places in Florida to ensure federal election laws are being followed in some of the state’s most Democratic-leaning counties, saying that only his administration’s supposed election monitors will be allowed in.

Due to uncertainty and fear around election safety as armed right-wing vigilantes have swarmed early polling places, the Justice Department (DOJ) announced that it would be increasing the number of polling places it will send officials to monitor from 44 in 2020 to 64 this year. The DOJ’s list of polling places includes three counties in Florida — Broward, Miami-Dade and Palm Beach — that have among the highest concentrations of Democrats in the state.

The purpose of the DOJ officials’ presence, the agency says, is to “monito[r] elections in the field in jurisdictions around the country to protect the rights of voters.” It says that the agency has monitored elections in the field in some capacity since the passage of the Voting Rights Act in 1965.

But DeSantis’s administration sent an aggressively-worded letter to DOJ officials on Monday night, signed by Florida Department of State Chief Counsel Brad McVay, saying that Florida officials will not allow federal monitors to enter the polling sites, even though Florida does give other “law enforcement” officials access to polling places.

Over the past few months, DeSantis has been at the forefront of some of the most aggressively fascist anti-voting initiatives among Republicans nationwide; earlier this year, for instance, Republicans in the Florida legislature passed a bill at DeSantis’s behest that allows him to appoint his own election police force.

Those police have been used to intimidate voters who have been convicted of felonies — even if they are still eligible to vote — as a way to scare away formerly incarcerated people from attempting to vote or register to vote.

Earlier this year, DeSantis also ousted an elected official from office for criticizing him, appointing a far right ally in his place. The decision is being challenged in court, but even if it’s overturned, the move is a show of DeSantis’s willingness to exercise his power in increasingly undemocratic ways to chill dissent in his state”.

 

Florida Republicans Use Dirty Tricks to Rig 2020 State Elections

CNN reports how Republicans used “dirty tricks” to Rig Three (3) 2020 Florida State Senate Elections with Dark Money and 3rd Party Phantom Candidates.

(Per the article below from CNN) “A month before Election Day in Florida a mysterious company called Proclivity, Inc. contributed $550,000 to a pair of newly formed political action committees in the state. Two days later, the money flowed from the PACs to an Orlando-area print and advertising firm.

Shortly thereafter, came a torrent of nearly identical political fliers seemingly intended to siphon away support from Democratic candidates by tricking voters into casting their ballots for purported spoiler candidates who demonstrated no real interest in getting elected. None, for example, engaged in typical campaigning activities or raised significant funds.
In one case, the mailers appear to have helped a Republican—a co-founder of Latinas For Trump—unseat the Democratic incumbent in a state Senate race by a razor-thin margin of just 32 votes”.

 

HOW REPUBLICANS RIG ELECTIONS BY GERRYMANDERING

Most Americans are unaware that Republicans has rigged elections in their favor for years to come through gerrymandering.

 

Republicans began rigging elections in 2010 so they couldn’t be removed from office by hyper-gerrymandering every state they took control of. Republicans injected $30 million, much of it from dark money, often targeting vulnerable blue state Democrats in races that wouldn’t otherwise draw a lot of national funding. The plan was called REDMAP

 

Through Gerrymandering, Republicans has made it almost impossible to be removed from office in some districts. Since they feel safe from being removed from office, they have no motivation to compromise. They are pursuing radical right wing agendas such as cutting assistance to the poor, cutting planned parenthood funding and passing anti-aborting “War on Women” legislation when the majority of Americans do not support these policies.

Democrats won 20 million More Votes and Lost

senate-votes

The United States constitution is severely flawed when more often than not in the last few elections the majority of people voting for a particular party did not receive their relative representation. Democrats received 20 million more votes in the Senate than Republicans in 2014, yet Republicans won big.

The same occurred in the House of Representatives in 2012.

House Democrats out-earned their Republican counterparts by 1.17 million votes. Read another way, Democrats won 50.59 percent of the two-party vote. Still, they won just 46.21 percent of seats, leaving the Republicans with 234 seats and Democrats with 201.

Republicans poised to rig the next election by gerrymandering electoral maps

A supreme court justice described the last round of gerrymandering as ‘dishonoring US democracy’. Another round is about to start – will this be another ‘political heist’?

Per the above article: “Republicans executed the plan, called Project Redmap, nearly perfectly and took control of 20 legislative bodies, including ones in Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. Then, Republicans set to work drawing maps that cemented their control on power for the next decade. Working behind closed doors, they were brazen in their efforts.

In Wisconsin, lawmakers signed secrecy agreements and then drew maps that were so rigged that Republicans could nearly hold on to a supermajority of seats with a minority of the vote. In Michigan, a Republican operative bragged about cramming “Dem garbage” into certain districts as they drew a congressional map that advantaged Republicans 9-5. In Ohio, GOP operatives worked secretly from a hotel room called “the bunker”, as they tweaked a congressional map that gave Republicans a 12-4 advantage. In North Carolina, a state lawmaker publicly said he was proposing a map that would elect 10 Republicans to Congress because he did not think it was possible to draw one that would elect 11.

This manipulation, called gerrymandering, “debased and dishonored our democracy”, Justice Elena Kagan would write years later. It allowed Republicans to carefully pick their voters, insulating them from the accountability that lies at the foundation of America’s democratic system. Now, the once-a-decade process is set to begin again in just a few weeks and Republicans are once again poised to dominate it. And this time around things could be even worse than they were a decade ago”.
