Christian Nationalists Threat to Democracy
Republican Christian Nationalists are Religious Fanatics who want theocratic fascist rule over the United States and are behind strict Anti-Abortion Laws to charge a woman with murder who aborts a pregnancy for any reason.

Far Right Promises Death Penalty for Non-Christians
The 2024 election could be the last chance to stop the far right from gaining power. Winning this election isn’t just about saving our democracy, if the far right are honest about their aim to kill non-Christians, then this is a matter of life and death.

Secret Christian Government Takeover Exposed
Video describes a plot to take over the government by a secret men-only right-wing Christian entity called the “Society for American Civic Renewal”.
The Society for American Civic Renewal, or SACR for short, is a group that was uncovered earlier this month by Talking Points Memo, which described them as, “a secret, men-only right-wing society with members in influential positions around the country who are on a crusade to recruit a Christian government that will form after the right achieves regime change in the United States, potentially via a ‘national divorce.'” Joining Joy Reid is the journalist who wrote this story, Josh Kovensky, investigative reporter for Talking Points Memo.
On December 13, 2023 at a Trump rally in Coralville Iowa, Radical Right Wing MAGA Preacher Joel Tenney declared; “This election is part of a spiritual battle. There are demonic forces at play. But judgment is coming. When Trump becomes the 47th president, there will be retribution against all those who have promoted evil in this country.”
The fact is, it’s TRUMP & his followers who are promoting evil by lying about the 2020 election being stolen, then engaged in riots, violence and an insurrection (which caused 5 deaths) to overturn the election because TRUMP is such a Narcissistic Psychopath that he refused to admit he lost.

Hellish Vision Of a “Christian” America Republicans Pray For…
What would the ‘Christian America” Republicans are praying for look like if those prayers were answered? It’s gotten so absurd that a reporter spoke with a woman at a Trump rally sporting a crucifix & a t-shirt that said “Hang Joe Biden For Treason.” She essentially said Jesus would sanction execution
In the U.S., a rising right-wing Christian Nationalist movement rejects the traditional separation of church and state. Many of these Radical Right Wingers see the 2022 midterm election as a war of good versus evil, and their opponents as literal incarnations of satanic or demonic forces.
Alabama Supreme Court Justice Tom Parker drew scrutiny after he invoked the threat of “the wrath of a holy God” in his legal opinion that embryos have the legal rights of children. Parker is a believer in the Christian Nationalist ideology known as the Seven Mountains Mandate which commands followers to control the ‘seven mountains’ of society — including government. An alarming number of prominent GOP figures, including Speaker of the House Mike Johnson, have embraced Christian Nationalist ideas. “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion,” wrote the Founders in the First Amendment, but today’s GOP seems bent on tearing down the wall between church and state.
Alabama Justice Who Ruled That Embryos Are ‘Children’ Appeared On QAnon Conspiracist’s Show
Alabama Chief Justice Tom Parker indicated on the show he was a proponent of the “Seven Mountains Mandate,” an explicitly theocratic doctrine at the heart of Christian nationalism.
Per the above article; Alabama Chief Justice Tom Parker indicated on the show he was a proponent of the “Seven Mountains Mandate,” an explicitly theocratic doctrine at the heart of Christian nationalism.
“Alabama Chief Justice Tom Parker, who wrote the concurring opinion in last week’s explosive Alabama Supreme Court ruling that frozen embryos have the same rights as living children, recently appeared on a show hosted by self-anointed “prophet” and QAnon conspiracy theorist.
Parker was the featured guest on “Someone You Should Know,” hosted by Johnny Enlow, a Christian nationalist influencer and devoted supporter of former President Donald Trump. Over the course of an 11-minute interview, Parker articulated a theocratic worldview at odds with a functioning, pluralistic society.
“God created government,” he told Enlow, adding that it’s “heartbreaking” that “we have let it go into the possession of others.”
Media Matters, the liberal media watchdog group, was the first to report on Parker’s appearance on the program.
That a state’s chief Supreme Court justice would associate himself with Enlow is a cause for alarm. Enlow is a prolific conspiracy theorist, often weaving QAnon apocrypha with prophecies he claims to receive directly from God.
As reported by Right Wing Watch, Enlow has claimed that Trump “is on assignment” from God to work with the angels Michael and Gabriel to take down George Soros and Bill Gates, among others; he has claimed that Russian President Vladamir Putin is fighting “Luciferian pedophiles” in Ukraine, in a battle to stop them from deploying vaccines and 5G that would turn people into transhumanist semi-robots; and he has claimed that the majority of other world leaders are “satanic” pedophiles who “steal blood” and “do sacrifices.”
What to Know About the Alabama Supreme Court’s Embryo Ruling
The Alabama Supreme Court just made a terrifying embryo ruling — and the judge, Chief Justice Tom Parker, who is a proponent of the Seven Mountains Mandate went as far as to quote the Bible in their defense. This is Christian Nationalist Fascism.
Radical Right Wing Republican Christian Nationalists are part of the Christo-fascist movement passing strict anti-abortion laws to charge a woman with murder who aborts a pregnancy for any reason.

Christians Who Supports Trump and Votes Republican are Hypocrites
There is no area where the Republican Party and Christianity intersect, and yet far too many Christians claim that they vote for Republicans on religious grounds. This is pure hypocrisy – you can’t be both a good Christian and a Republican loyalist, as the two truly are mutually exclusive.

‘Most un-Christian person ever’: the white evangelical love affair with Donald Trump gets worse
Christian Nationalism Ascendant In GOP Politics
In June 1979, Jerry Falwell Senior, a flamboyant Baptist minister, announced his intentions to build one of the most powerful political coalitions in American history. The “Moral Majority,” as it would later be tagged, was not only instrumental in the election of Ronald Reagan… it also forged a bond between the Republican Party and Christian fundamentalist groups that persists to this day – one that we now see manifesting even on the nation’s highest court.
Today’s Twisted, Upside-Down Republican Party… where supporting a lawless lying, wanna-be dictator traitor who repeatedly LIED about losing the 2020 election and made baseless claims that the election was stolen is “Right”. Voting to Impeach him for violating his Oath of Office, Inciting a Riot & engaging in Insurrection to overturn an election that he lost is “Wrong”.

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 stepped in and said, “I believe that I am acting in accordance with the will of the Almighty Creator by defending myself against the Jew. I am fighting for the work of the Lord.”
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”.

Christian Nationalism’s Racist Past Precludes Revival Except Among GOP’s Trumpiest
Rachel Maddow looks at the racist, antisemitic roots of “Christian nationalism” as advocated by American politician Gerald L.K. Smith in the 1950s, and the renewed embrace of the tenets of that disgraced movement by supporters of Donald Trump like Marjorie Taylor Greene and Republican candidate for Pennsylvania governor Doug Mastriano.
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.
Iran is a country run by Radical Right Wing Religious Fanatics where women and girls are mandated to wear hijabs, to wear so-called “modest clothing” and to hide their hair in public. This is an example of how oppressive the United States could become unless Radical Right Wing Republican Christian Nationalists are STOPPED.

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.
Expert Compares Trump’s Politics to Fascism
Yale philosophy professor Jason Stanley explains why he claims President Donald Trump’s politics are akin to fascism, a political movement based around a leader. 80+% of Republicans approve of Trump, even after he has LIED more than any other Politician in history (fact checkers claim over 30,000 false or misleading statements since becoming president).

Trump Loving Florida Governor Makes It LEGAL To Kill Protestors
Under a proposed piece of legislation from Ron DeSantis, the Trump-loving governor of Florida, it would be legal for citizens to run over protestors without any fear of prosecution, as long as the protestor was in the street. This is a direct attack on the First Amendment of the United States, and DeSantis is merely trying to give voters the impression that things are out of control in the state. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains why DeSantis is doing this.
Similar to Russia and North Korea, Republicans Anti-Protest Laws Violates Freedom of Speech
Similar to how Russia & North Korea stifles Freedom of Speech, Republicans are doing the same in the United States by passing more than 80 Anti-Protest Bills in 34 States they control.
With the passage of an anti-protest law, Joy says, “DeSantis is actually governing like the former Alabama Governor … George Wallace made no secret of what he would do to protesters if they were lying in the street in front of his car.”

‘Rally to Save Protesting’: March for our Lives Florida rallies against DeSantis’ ‘anti-riot’ bill
Florida Senate passes controversial ‘anti-riot’ bill pushed in wake of Black Lives Matter protests
The Florida Senate passed a controversial anti-riot bill that was pushed by GOP Gov. Ron DeSantis in the wake of Black Lives Matter protests last summer.
Per the above article; “The Florida Senate on Thursday passed, largely along party lines, a controversial anti-riot bill that was pushed by GOP Gov. Ron DeSantis in the wake of Black Lives Matter protests last summer.
The bill would increase criminal penalties for assaulting law enforcement officials while engaging in a “riot” and defacing monuments and other public property during riots. It would also penalize local governments that interfere with law enforcement efforts to contain riots and set up a citizen’s appeal process when cities and counties try to reduce police budgets in response to riots.
The final vote in the Senate was 23-17, with one Republican voting with Democrats in opposition. The bill passed the GOP-controlled House in late March. Democratic legislators argue that it would create a chilling effect on First Amendment rights and restrict political dissent”.
“This legislation strikes the appropriate balance of safeguarding every Floridian’s constitutional right to peacefully assemble, while ensuring that those who hide behind peaceful protest to cause violence in our communities will be punished,” DeSantis said in a statement”.
DeSantis statement; “This legislation strikes the appropriate balance of safeguarding every Floridian’s constitutional right to peacefully assemble” is total BS. The criminal penalties in the bill PROVES his statement is BS.

G.O.P. Bills Target Protesters (and Absolve Motorists Who Hit Them) (Published 2021)
As the nation reacts to the guilty verdict a jury handed to Derek Chauvin in the killing of George Floyd, Republican-led states are introducing punitive new measures governing protests.
Per the above article: “Republican legislators in Oklahoma and Iowa have passed bills granting immunity to drivers whose vehicles strike and injure protesters in public streets.
A Republican proposal in Indiana would bar anyone convicted of unlawful assembly from holding state employment, including elected office. A Minnesota bill would prohibit those convicted of unlawful protesting from receiving student loans, unemployment benefits or housing assistance.
And in Florida, Gov. Ron DeSantis signed sweeping legislation this week that toughened existing laws governing public disorder and created a harsh new level of infractions — a bill he’s called “the strongest anti-looting, anti-rioting, pro-law-enforcement piece of legislation in the country.”
The measures are part of a wave of new anti-protest legislation, sponsored and supported by Republicans, in the 11 months since Black Lives Matter protests swept the country following the death of George Floyd.
The Florida law imposes harsher penalties for existing public disorder crimes, turning misdemeanor offenses into felonies, creating new felony offenses and preventing defendants from being released on bail until they have appeared before a judge. A survey conducted in January by Ryan D. Tyson, a Republican pollster, found broad support in the state for harsher penalties against protesters “who damage personal and business property or assault law enforcement.”
Trump and Republicans Attempts to Destroy Affordable Healthcare
Republicans voted 70 times to eliminate Affordable Healthcare (Obama Care) to millions of Americans with Pre-existing conditions, and wasted Millions of tax payers dollars in the process. They constantly used the term “Repeal & Replace” but never offered any replacement for the millions of people who would have become uninsured as a result of their actions.
Republicans core belief is “limited government” so they never had any real intentions of “Repealing & Replacing” the Affordable Care Act. They believe it’s not the governments responsibility to help citizens have healthcare, social security, medicare or similar programs. If they could, they would ELIMINATE all of these programs. They want to privatize everything, including the postal service. Republican Lobbyist Grover Norquist is a well-known proponent of “limited government” and famously said, “My goal is to cut government in half in twenty-five years, to get it down to the size where we can drown it in the bathtub.” [source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starve_the_beast]
GOP Aims to Kill Obamacare After 70 Documented Failures
Newsweek found at least 70 examples of Republican-led efforts to repeal, modify or otherwise curb the Affordable Care Act since its inception as law on March 23, 2010.
GOP Attempts to Obstruct and Mislead on Health Reform
Ironical, it was John McCain who’s single vote which saved the Affordable Care Act and insurance for millions of Americans. This may be one of the reasons why Trump despised John McCain.
Perhaps because Trump knew he may lose the 2020 election, he became more desperate to dismantle Obamacare before he left office to destroy his legacy as his final parting shot.
Multiple news outlets have suggested that President Obama’s mocking of Donald Trump at the 2011 White House Correspondents’ Dinner provoked him to run for President. After Trump became President he pursued a relentless campaign to undue everything President Obama accomplished.
Trump’s primary reason to destroy Obamacare was probably due to his jealousy, personal hatred and his obsession to undo ALL of Obama’s Legacy.
This video shows how vindictive Trump is… “Get even. When somebody screws you, screw them back in spades.”
Republicans hated “Obamacare” because they hated Obama
President Obama and Democrats passed the Affordable Healthcare Act better known as Obamacare. One of the things the Affordable Healthcare Act addressed is making insurance companies accept people with preexisting conditions.
Like so many other issues, Republicans answer to the millions of people who are uninsured was and is to do nothing. This is another example of Republicans “Just say no” policy to anything President Obama wanted, regardless if it benefited the American people. If President Obama was for it… then Republicans were against it.

TODAY’S GOP: ROTTEN TO THE CORE
Former Republican David Jolly unleashes on the ‘rotten to the core’ politicians of the GOP
These are, in today’s Republican party, spineless politicians rotten to the core without virtue, without any level of human integrity, devoid of self respect, self reflection…Without courage and without the moral compass to recognize their own malevolence.’
“There is no greater example of selling your soul to a charlatan than what Republicans are doing right now in the House and the Senate,” he added. “And their legacies are on the line just as much as Donald Trump’s.”
Jolly was a lifelong Republican until he jumped ship in 2018. Before then, he served in Congress from 2014 to 2017 following the death of his boss.

Republicans War On Transgenders
Republicans have declared War on Transgenders by proposing heartless, inhumane bills and laws which discriminate against them and violate their rights.
More than half of trans youth have seriously considered ending their lives. And according to a study by the American Medical Association, that number decreases by 73% when those kids receive gender affirming care. A 73% decrease in suicidal ideation is an astounding outcome. No drug or antidepressant even comes close to having that kind of impact. Gender-affirming care saves lives.
Republican’s are passing these laws because they’re CRUEL Narrow-Minded, Anti-Science MORONS… Religious Fanatics who are stuck in the Dark Ages, Christian Nationalist who believe there should be no separation between Church and State, and Anti-Democratic Authoritarian Fascists who want BIG GOVERNMENT to control every aspect of people’s lives.
Parents of Transgenders should CLASS ACTION SUE the Trump Administration & Republican Red States for BILLIONS to make them PAY for passing DISCRIMINATION & CRUELTY laws which violate Transgenders Civil Rights. Parents should also appear on TV shows and call Republicans out by name, who caused hardship to their children.
Trump has taken the GOP’s assault on transgendered people and teachers to a new level this week by signing an executive order that allows the Department of Justice to begin prosecuting teachers who support transgender and nonbinary students. But the order is much darker than it would seem – if a teacher uses pronouns for a student that do not correspond with the gender assigned to them at birth, they will be prosecuted. This is about to lead to all sorts of chaos in the education system,
The above video shows how due to Republican’s religious beliefs, they feel justified in discriminating against LGBT people.
It’s important to note that the bible advocates the Death Penalty for working on Sunday and Adultery:
Exodus 31:15 “Whoever does any work on the Sabbath day shall be put to death”.
Leviticus 20:10: “If a man commits adultery with another man’s wife–with the wife of his neighbor–both the adulterer and the adulteress are to be put to death”.
No mention by the above “Preacher” about those quotes… an example of how Radical Right Wing Republicans are hypocrites who uses the bible to selectively justify their points of view.
This video shows a Radical Right Wing Preacher telling parents to “rein in” their kids if they’re daughter acts too “butch” or son acts too feminine, because God made them they way they are. This gets to the heart of why Radical Right Wing Christian Republicans behave as they do towards LGBT kids, parents and everything else. They’re brainwashed with unscientific religious beliefs.
Radical Right Wing REPUBLICAN preacher calls for the concentration and ultimate death of “queers and homosexuals.”

New bill in Oklahoma would ban gender-affirming care for anyone under 26 years old
A new Republican Fascist Authoritarian bill (Oklahoma SB129) was released in Oklahoma that would ban gender affirming care for people under the age of 26 years old. Gen Z would be entirely banned from gender affirming care under this bill. This prospect is terrifying because Gen Z has been the most open about transitioning and a bill like this would medically detransition a huge portion of Oklahoma’s transgender population. This comes after other states like New Hampshire and South Carolina saw bills filed to raise the age of transition to 21, and places like Florida utilized a sham medical board to ban gender affirming care under 18. Slowly, states are moving towards an outright ban on being transgender – it is for these reasons that people have begun calling the attacks on gender affirming care an attempt at genocide.

Transgenders rights are under siege in over 20 states under Republican control
Every anti-trans bill US lawmakers introduced this year, from banning medication to jail time for doctors
This year, 28 states will vote on bills to curb the rights of transgender adults and children, covering medication access, sports, and bathrooms.
Per the above article, here’s a list of some of the outrageous laws REPUBLICANS has passed or are proposing to pass AGAINST Transgenders;
- According to the ACLU, 28 states are voting on anti-trans legislation in 2021.
- Many bills directly impact trans children, banning them from playing sports or using the restroom.
- Some bills could make it a felony for doctors to provide life-saving care to trans youth.
Arkansas – On March 29, 2021, Arkansas became the first state in the US to pass a bill prohibiting doctors from treating trans youth. HB1570 is called the “Save Adolescents From Experimentation (SAFE) Act.” The law will take effect in the summer of 2021.
Arizona – Arizona’s SB1511 would punish doctors with over a decade in prison for providing HRT or puberty blockers to minors. State lawmakers are also attempting to ban trans athletes from playing school sports with bill SB1637.
Connecticut – Connecticut’s legislature is voting on two anti-trans sports bans that would prevent trans youth from playing in school teams “to protect women’s rights”: SB00324 and HB 05795.
Georgia – Georgia’s legislature is voting on a bill that would criminalize gender-affirming care, namely HRT and puberty blockers, for minors: HB401. Two other bills, SB266 and HB276, would prevent trans athletes from participating in school and university sports programs, even at private institutions, if passed.
Florida – Florida’s legislature is voting on a bill that would make gender-affirming care, primarily HRT and puberty blockers, illegal for minors: HB 935

Kansas will also vote on SB208, a bill that will stop trans students from participating in school sports to “create fairness in women’s sports.”
Kentucky – Kentucky’s HB336 would make providing gender-affirming care for trans minors illegal and protect public officials who express views against gender-affirming care if passed. The state legislature is also debating two bills that would stop trans student-athletes from playing sports: SB106 and HB471.
Louisiana
Louisiana – Louisiana’s SB 104 would make it illegal for doctors to provide gender-affirming care to minors without parental consent, namely gender-affirming therapy, puberty blockers, and HRT.

Interview with State Senator Sarah McBride, the highest ranking trans lawmaker in America
New poll shows Americans overwhelmingly oppose anti-transgender laws
Two-thirds of Americans are against laws that would limit transgender rights, a new PBS NewsHour/NPR/Marist poll found. That opposition includes majorities of every political ideology from liberal to conservative and every age group.
Per the above article; “Two-thirds of Americans are against laws that would limit transgender rights, a new PBS NewsHour/NPR/Marist poll found. That opposition includes majorities of every political ideology from liberal to conservative and every age group.
These proposed bills have emerged as a new culture war, with Republican state legislators introducing and voting for them amid Democratic opposition, while a majority of Americans who identify as Republicans are against such laws, according to the poll”.
The Shadowy, Widespread Effort to Erase Trans Youth
The overwhelming majority of Americans support transgender rights. But some hate groups are pursuing a craven legal strategy.
Per the above article: Anti-trans legislation is spreading all across the country. State legislatures are trying to spin animus against transgender kids being allowed to participate in sports into rules around who’s allowed to do what in this country. And these very kids are having to show up to try to stop lawmakers from erasing their existence.
Oftentimes what we’ll see two bills in legislatures: One will be a trans youth health care ban and the other will be a sports bill. This dual pursuit is so hard to keep up with because there are so many of them—you’ll see one bill fail, and then another one pops up, or a more extreme version pops up.
A lot of these bills have a single source: a legal advocacy group called the Alliance Defending Freedom.
he Alliance Defending Freedom is a long-standing, extreme anti-LGBTQ group. They’re labeled a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center. And to give you a sense of why, for a number of years it’s claimed that LGBTQ people are pedophiles, and it advocated for the forced sterilization of transgender people in the European Court of Human Rights in 2015. It is probably as extreme in its stance on queer people as you can get, and it often is behind a lot of these bills.
About Transgender Youth Medical Care Bans:
State Representative Anthony Sabatini has filed HB 211 – the Transgender Youth Medical Care Ban – for the 2022 Florida Legislative Session. These blanket bans attempt to imprison healthcare providers for providing best-practice medical care to transgender youth, criminalize them for practicing their profession, and put politicians between transgender youth, their parents, and medical professionals. Arkansas and Tennessee have passed bans and 18 more states, including Florida, have tried.
This legislation has nothing to do with the health and safety of children — the cruelty is by design. It’s literally cut and paste language from right-wing political strategy groups like the Heritage Foundation that seek to put a target on the backs of transgender youth as an election strategy to mobilize far-right voters. It’s coming from the same anti-LGBTQ playbook they used to create and pass last session’s hateful Transgender Youth Sports Ban.
Earlier this year, Republican Governor of Arkansas, Asa Hutchinson, vetoed a similar bill telling NPR that it amounted to “vast government overreach” and “sends the wrong signal” to a vulnerable population. He urged his legislative colleagues to “rethink [their] engagement in every aspect of culture wars”. The Arkansas Legislature later overrode the veto and became the first state in the nation to ban affirming medical care for transgender youth.
Leading national health organizations like the American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Psychological Association, and the American Medical Association support gender-affirming care for transgender children. Doctors and health professionals are tasked with adhering to best practices and standards of care. The legislature forcing them to deviate from that guidance puts the health and wellbeing of transgender youth in peril.
Transgender youth are the most likely to be bullied, the most at risk for suicide, and the most likely to face harassment. We should be working together to keep them safe — not attacking them, their families, and their doctors.
What Does It Mean to Ban Care for Transgender Youth?
Far-right Republicans want you to think that kids are all by themselves, making snap decisions with life-long consequences. But that’s simply not the case.
For most transgender and nonbinary minors, transition care supports “social transitioning” — it’s about presenting as their affirmed gender and using their identified pronouns. When children are able to live and present as their authentic gender identity, they have lower levels of anxiety and depression.
Republicans are Lawless and Corrupt
Videos show how today’s Republicans are Lawless and Corrupt Liars who will do and say anything to seize and maintain power with no regard for the truth, the rule of law, the constitution, democracy or decency.
GOP Culture of Corruption
A video trip down memory lane shows how Trump Republicans of 2020 are as lawless as Nixon Republicans from 1972
The Corruption of the Republican Party
The GOP is best understood as an insurgency that carried the seeds of its own corruption from the start.
Per the above article; “Why has the Republican Party become so thoroughly corrupt? The reason is historical—it goes back many decades—and, in a way, philosophical. The party is best understood as an insurgency that carried the seeds of its own corruption from the start”.
“The corruption I mean has less to do with individual perfidy than institutional depravity. It isn’t an occasional failure to uphold norms, but a consistent repudiation of them. It isn’t about dirty money so much as the pursuit and abuse of power—power as an end in itself, justifying almost any means. Political corruption usually trails financial scandals in its wake—the foam is scummy with self-dealing—but it’s far more dangerous than graft. There are legal remedies for Duncan Hunter, a representative from California, who will stand trial next year for using campaign funds to pay for family luxuries.* But there’s no obvious remedy for what the state legislatures of Wisconsin and Michigan, following the example of North Carolina in 2016, are now doing”.
“Republican majorities are rushing to pass laws that strip away the legitimate powers of newly elected Democratic governors while defeated or outgoing Republican incumbents are still around to sign the bills. Even if the courts overturn some of these power grabs, as they have in North Carolina, Republicans will remain securely entrenched in the legislative majority through their own hyper-gerrymandering—in Wisconsin last month, 54 percent of the total votes cast for major-party candidates gave Democrats just 36 of 99 assembly seats—so they will go on passing laws to thwart election results. Nothing can stop these abuses short of an electoral landslide. In Wisconsin, a purple state, that means close to 60 percent of the total vote”.
The fact that no plausible election outcome can check the abuse of power is what makes political corruption so dangerous. It strikes at the heart of democracy. It destroys the compact between the people and the government. In rendering voters voiceless, it pushes everyone closer to the use of undemocratic means.
“Today’s Republican Party has cornered itself with a base of ever older, whiter, more male, more rural, more conservative voters. Demography can take a long time to change—longer than in progressives’ dreams—but it isn’t on the Republicans’ side. They could have tried to expand; instead, they’ve hardened and walled themselves off. This is why, while voter fraud knows no party, only the Republican Party wildly overstates the risk so that it can pass laws (including right now in Wisconsin, with a bill that reduces early voting) to limit the franchise in ways that have a disparate partisan impact. This is why, when some Democrats in the New Jersey legislature proposed to enshrine gerrymandering in the state constitution, other Democrats, in New Jersey and around the country, objected”.
“Taking away democratic rights—extreme gerrymandering; blocking an elected president from nominating a Supreme Court justice; selectively paring voting rolls and polling places; creating spurious anti-fraud commissions; misusing the census to undercount the opposition; calling lame-duck legislative sessions to pass laws against the will of the voters—is the Republican Party’s main political strategy, and will be for years to come”.

Lawrence O’Donnell says just hours after the Capitol was attacked on Wednesday, 147 Republican members of Congress continued to attack the Constitution.

Republicans knew Trump was unfit to be President, yet all have caved, kowtowed and supported him, putting their own political careers over doing what’s best for our country
Republicans such as Marco Rubio who called Trump’s 34 Count Guilty Verdict a ‘complete travesty‘, in 2016 called Trump a ‘Con Artist‘ who’s ‘been exploiting working Americans for 40 years’. Ted Cruz called Trump a ‘Pathological Liar who doesn’t know the difference between truth and lies. He lies practically every word that comes out of his mouth’ & ‘a narcissist at a level I don’t think this country’s ever seen’. Rand Paul; ‘Donald Trump is a delusional narcissist and an orange-faced windbag’ & ‘my concern is that he would grab up that power and treat the country as sort of his bully fiefdom‘. Nikki Haley; ‘Donald Trump is everything I taught my children not to do in kindergarten’. Lindsey Graham; ‘he’s a race-baiting xenophobic religious bigot’ & I think he’s a kook. I think he’s crazy. I think he’s unfit for office. Kellyanne Conway; ‘he says he’s for the little guy but he’s actually built a lot of his businesses on the backs of the little guy’. Mike Pompeo; ‘Donald Trump the other day said that it quote if he tells a soldier to commit a war crime the soldier will just do it’. Glenn Beck; ‘I don’t think Donald Trump has even read the constitution & knows what’s in the constitution’. Susan Collins; ‘I just cannot support Donald Trump’. Former Texas Gov. Rick Perry called Trump a cancer on conservatism” and “a barking carnival act”. “He offers a barking carnival act that can be best described as Trumpism: a toxic mix of demagoguery, mean-spiritedness and nonsense that will lead the Republican Party to perdition if pursued. Let no one be mistaken – Donald Trump’s candidacy is a cancer on conservatism, and it must be clearly diagnosed, excised and discarded.”.
REPUBLICANS voting to overturn the 2020 election, defending TRUMP no matter what, failing to Impeach Trump when he deserved to be Impeached, disparaging Court Proceedings in New York in which TRUMP was held accountable for paying Hush Money to keep the American people in the dark about his adulterous affairs to influence the outcome of the 2016 election… being outraged over Trump’s well deserved 34 Count Guilty Verdict, claiming the Trial was a ‘SHAM’, ‘Election Interference’, ‘Politically Motivated’, threatening REVENGE & RETRIBUTION, prove REPUBLICANS ARE LAWLESS SCUM OF THE EARTH who have NO DECENCY, NO MORALS, NO SHAME, NO PRINCIPLES, have put PARTY, POLITICS & POLITICAL CAREERS above all else and are UNFIT to hold PUBLIC OFFICE.

How Republicans Trade Dignity To Stay In Party Of Trump
REPUBLICAN 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.
Kevin McCarthy is a Partisan Hack who 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.

Louie Gohmert and Republicans has proven to be lawless traitors who doesn’t care about Trump and Barr’s lawless behavior, their violations of the constitution, and democracy being destroyed.

Failure to convict Trump in impeachment trial will live as a ‘vote of infamy’, says Schumer. Trump CLEARLY Violated his Oath of Office numerous ways including Inciting Violence, Lying for months about the 2020 election being Rigged & Stolen, failing to admit he lost the election, engaging in Insurrection & a coup attempt to stop the Electoral College Certification, Obstructing Justice, Abuse of Power, Blocking Congressional Oversight, Dirt on an opponent for Foreign Aid, Emoluments Clause Violations yet Republicans REFUSED to Impeach & Remove him during the first impeachment.

Rep. Liz Cheney has been speaking out, standing up for our democracy and telling the truth that the 2020 election wasn’t stolen. But Republican snowflakes can’t handle the truth.
Dick Cheney is RIGHT
For telling the truth, voting to impeach Trump for inciting an insurrection & violence, being part of the January 6 Select Committee which investigated and exposed Trump’s crimes to the world, REPUBLICANS proved how LAWLESS & CORRUPT they are by removing Liz Cheney from her leadership position in Congress and ultimately voting her out of office.
Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) is standing up for facts while a large part of her colleagues in the House GOP are still pushing conspiracies and lies because they are afraid of telling the truth to their constituents.
Wyoming Republicans proved to be LAWLESS by voting to Censure Liz Cheney who stood for the rule of law by rightly voting to Impeach Trump who engaged in Treasonous, Criminal behavior.
LAWLESS Wyoming Republicans voted to no longer recognize Rep. Liz Cheney as a member of the party.
Arizona Republicans proved to be LAWLESS by voting to Censure Jeff Flake, Cindy McCain and Doug Ducey
GOP Leadership Traded Rule Of Law For Political Power
Award-winning filmmaker Michael Kirk sits down with host Ali Velshi to discuss his new investigative film, “Lies, Politics and Democracy.” FRONTLINE kicks off its new season on September 6th with a special premiere of the powerful new film investigating Trump’s influence on the Republican Party and the mounting threats to American democracy. The two hour special features interviews with renowned scholars, journalists and key figures in the conservative movement who sounded the alarm about the dangers of acquiescing to Trump’s authoritarian bent. These experts argue that the Republican leadership sold the party’s values in return for political wins even as the twice-impeached president incited the worst elements of the far-right. “The calculation they’ve made is if they want to get reelected, they have to sign on with Donald Trump– even in the face of their own knowledge that the Big Lie is a big lie,” Kirk tells Velshi.
Executive Director of Stand Up Republic, Evan McMullin calls the Republican Party: ‘Rotten To The Core’
TODAY’S GOP: ROTTEN TO THE CORE
Former Republican David Jolly unleashes on the ‘rotten to the core’ politicians of the GOP
These are, in today’s Republican party, spineless politicians rotten to the core without virtue, without any level of human integrity, devoid of self respect, self reflection…Without courage and without the moral compass to recognize their own malevolence.’
GOP Operatives Charged Over Russian’s Donation To Trump
Two Republican operatives, Jesse Benton and Doug Wead were indicted for arranging a donation from a Russian national to participate in a meeting with then-candidate Donald Trump. Benton received a pardon from Donald Trump in December for crimes related to a different political money scheme.
Republican Party Is ‘In Moral Crisis’
Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-IL) speaks out after being censured by the Republican National Committee (RNC )
GOP has been encouraging ‘loony’ views for years
The REPUBLICAN party has NOTHING to offer except LIES, Divisive Social Issues, taking away Women’s Rights,Cutting / Eliminating Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, giving Tax Breaks to the RICH. Attacking / Demonizing LGBT’s, Rigging Elections by Gerrymandering, Voter Obstruction and other anti-democratic tactics to prevent people from voting who aren’t likely to vote for them.
Republicans must lie to survive: They have no other choice
From Ronald Reagan to Donald Trump, the path to Republican political success is rooted in profound deception
Republicans Must Lie to Survive: They have No Other Choice
Per the above article; “The GOP exists to serve the interests of the wealthy and big business that comprise the richest 1%. No party, however, can ever win an election with only 1% of the vote. So to win elections, the GOP must necessarily reach beyond its own wealthy core and attempt to convince a large segment of working people in the 99% to vote for Republicans.
Normally, a political party wins elections by offering policies that benefit the voters. These policies attract the voters who then cast their votes for the political party.
But for the Republican Party, this is not an option. A candidate could not possibly campaign on the policies favored by the 1%. Just imagine the stump speech. “Vote for me and I will slash your health care! In fact, I’ll do even better — I’ll fight like mad to completely eliminate your health care!”
“Vote for me and I will get rid of your pensions! This would save corporations a bundle and boost profits to the shareholders! Screw the workers!”
“Vote for me and I promise to ship your jobs overseas under globalization! The exact same labor can be hired in Asia for only pennies! Hurray!”
The Republican Party is left with only one option. It cannot possibly be honest about its true intentions and actual policies. The working class would never vote for them. Instead, the only option is to lie”.
Fox News host Sean Hannity admitted under oath that he never believed Trump was cheated of victory in the 2020 presidential election
2 Weeks after the Election was called for Joe Biden, Fox Pundits Made False Claims (LIED) about the results nearly 800 times
Fox News repeatedly aided Trump’s efforts to undermine election results, laying the groundwork to cry foul if Trump lost, echoing debunked theories of fraud, pushing the idea that Democrats are trying to “steal” this from him, and arguing that Trump is justified in pursuing his claims of a rigged election. This pattern of coverage continued in the lead-up to the day of the riots.
The “Fox-Can-Lie Lawsuit” established that they are not required to be truthful by law. Since Fox has established that they have the legal right not to be truthful, Fox Opinion Hosts tells their conservative viewers that Democrats are “Radical Leftist Socialists” who want to take away your guns & freedom, that Republican policies are good for this country, that Trump’s a rational person and the MSM (Main Stream Media) such as ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, CNN, New York Times, Washington Post etc is “Fake News”. ALL the exact opposite of the TRUTH.
Right-Wing outlets want to KEEP their viewers brainwashed so they never watch legitimate news and learn the truth about the damage Trump and Republicans has been doing to our country while screwing over “the little guy”. Also, the more people who watches, the more money they can demand and bring in for advertising.
Most of FOX’s viewers probably have no idea that Fox can legally LIE to them, so they believe everything they see & hear on FOX.
Republican SEX CRIMES and BAD BEHAVIOR EXPOSED in shocking Megaviral Super-cut.
Joel Greenberg Scandal: Another example of how Lawless and Corrupt Republicans are – Aired on 03/31/2021
Greenberg Scandal Grows Even More Sordid
PAST REPUBLICAN LAWLESS CONDUCT
• Republican Joseph McCarthy – Engaged in demagogic, reckless, and unsubstantiated accusations, as well as public attacks on the character and/or patriotism of political opponents to further his own career in politics.
• Republican President Richard Nixon – Criminal Watergate Activity, creating enemies lists and much more. Details here
• Republican President Gerald Ford Pardoned Richard Nixon’s Criminal Watergate Activities
• Republican President Ronald Reagan. By the end of his term, 138 Reagan administration officials had been convicted, had been indicted, or had been the subject of official investigations for official misconduct and/or criminal violations. More details here
• Republicans Rigged the 2000 Election This is the epitome of lawlessness. Proof is on this site
• As a result of the 2000 election being rigged which installed George W. Bush as president, Bush illegally and without provocation invaded Iraq, causing the deaths and injury of thousands of US Troops and Iraqi Citizens.
• As a result of the 2000 election being rigged which installed George W. Bush as president, Bush appointed 2 Regressive (“Conservative”) Supreme Court Justices John Roberts and Samuel Alito, who made partisan decisions such as “Citizens United”, striking down key provisions of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, failing to strike down the Texas “Heartbeat” Anti-Abortion Law and overturning Roe V. Wade. Al Gore received 600,000 more popular votes than Bush so the majority of US Citizens wanted Gore as President and Liberal Supreme Court Justices. Republicans didn’t care, they crammed the rigged 2000 election down US Citizens throats and pursued a Anti-Democratic, Fascist agenda.
Crimes, Misdeeds and Deaths
Per article at (http://dyn.politico.com/members/forums/thread.cfm?catid=1&subcatid=4&threadid=2895278&start=271&CurrentPage=10) and copies found elsewhere on the internet, here’s just a few of the crimes and misdeeds of George W. Bush
- Lying to the American People about Weapons of Mass Destruction to justify War Against Iraq
- War Crimes: In the case of Hamdan vs Rumsfeld, it was proven that numerous war crimes have been committed by the Bush Administration in the war against Iraq, including the preemptive invasion itself. This does not include the unaccounted-for millions of dollars lost in Iraq or the unlawful management by the US State Department regarding the US Contractors operating in Iraq, Kuwait and Afghanistan. Holding and torturing prisoners being held without due process at Guantanamo Bay and the Abu Ghraib prison scandal are also serious war crimes.
- Deaths and Injuries: Causing the deaths of 4,475 Americans, 32,331 wounded Americans and the deaths of over 112,000 Iraqi Civilians
- Outing of a CIA Agent: The outing of Valerie Plame-Wilson by the Bush Administration, admitted by the CIA as being a covert agent, has led directly to Dick Cheney and possibly directly to the President.
- Spying on Americans: President Bush has admitted to his program of warrentless spying against millions of Americans in violation of the Forth Amendment and the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA).
- Missing e-mails: Two federal statutes require presidential communications, including White House e-mails, to be preserved for the nation’s historical records. From 2001 to October 2003, the White House records system over-wrote all their e-mail files, and up to 2005, some e-mails still were not fully preserved. CREW (Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington) and the National Security Archives allege that millions of e-mails are missing from White House servers. (It is interesting that the timing of these lost e-mails is when most of the major illegal Bush activities were occurring.)
- Misuse of e-mail systems: Both the Republican National Committee e-mail system and the White House system were used within the White House to perform partisan political activities. As the White House is public property, it is against the law to do partisan political business while on public White House property.
- Unlawful FBI Activities: The ACLU has released documents showing that the Bush Administration directed the FBI to expand the definition of “domestic terrorism” to include citizens engaged in nonviolent protest and civil disobedience. This is totally unconstitutional.
- Firing of US Attorneys: This was a successful attempt by the President to use his US Attorney General and the US Justice Department for partisan political gains. VIDEO
- Response to Hurricane Katrina: This was a demonstration of gross negligence by the Bush Administration. A major, obvious betrayal of public trust.
- Scooter Libby: The President betrayed the public trust when he commuted the prison sentence of “Scooter” Libby.
Koch Industries was indicted by the DoJ in 2000 for knowingly dumping “at least 91 metric tons of uncontrolled benzene in its liquid waste streams” at its Corpus Christi refinery, and for conspiring to cover it up in an attempt to deceive regulators.After George W. Bush took office in 2001, however, “his Attorney General John Ashcroft dropped 88 counts against Koch for the benzene spill and cover-up” in exchange for a guilty plea to falsifying documents and a $20 million fine (a settlement from $350 million in potential fines.)The Kochs made out pretty well in exchange for their $32,200 contribution to the 2000 Bush campaign.

• In 2016 after North Carolina citizens voted for and elected a Democratic Governor, the NC GOP controlled legislator passed laws to strip the newly elected Governor of his powers before he began his first day on the job, again proving Republicans don’t give a Dam about US Citizens or the Will of the People.

Republican’s War Against LGBT
Republicans have passed laws which discriminate LGBT people in Red states such as Texas, Florida, Arizona, Arkansas, Indiana, North Carolina and Mississippi
The above video shows how due to Republican’s religious beliefs, they feel justified in discriminating against LGBT people.
It’s important to note that the bible advocates the Death Penalty for working on Sunday and Adultery:
Exodus 31:15 “Whoever does any work on the Sabbath day shall be put to death”.
Leviticus 20:10: “If a man commits adultery with another man’s wife–with the wife of his neighbor–both the adulterer and the adulteress are to be put to death”.
No mention by the above “Preacher” about those quotes… an example of how Radical Right Wing Republicans are hypocrites who uses the bible to selectively justify their points of view.
This video shows a Radical Right Wing Preacher telling parents to “rein in” their kids if they’re daughter acts too “butch” or son acts too feminine, because God made them they way they are. This gets to the heart of why Radical Right Wing Christian Republicans behave as they do towards LGBT kids, parents and everything else. They’re brainwashed with unscientific religious beliefs.
Radical Right Wing REPUBLICAN preacher calls for the concentration and ultimate death of “queers and homosexuals.”
The GOP Push For A National Anti-Gay Law And The Attack On LGBTQ Existence
On Wednesday, 33 House Republicans introduced a federal version of the “Don’t Say Gay” bill—and it goes even further than Florida’s. LGBTQ folks, particularly trans folks, are under attack in this country by mean spirited, anti-science Republicans
Texas Republicans Declare All-Out WAR On The State’s LGBT Community
The Texas Republican Party has single-handedly thrown the state back into the dark ages by adopting a platform that, by vote, deems homosexuality as an “abnormal choice”. If that wasn’t bad enough, the party also reaffirmed their opposition to recognizing that transgender people exist while affirming support for conversion therapy programs.
‘Old-school bigoted’: Why Republicans seem to be regressing on LGBTQ issues
Chris Hayes and Slate’s Mark Joseph Stern discuss the rise of homophobic, anti-trans sentiments on the right and anti-LGBT legislation: “Lately, the Republican Party seems emboldened to make all kinds of rank, old-school bigoted comments about LGBTQ people,” says Hayes.
Examples of right-wing leaders who were forced to resign from their anti-gay organizations after their own homosexuality came to light. However, multiple allegations of sexual misconduct made by men against Matt Schlapp, chair of the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) have not driven him from leading the group, known for its anti-gay sermonizing.
Republicans and Marjorie Taylor Greene have resorted to smear tactics calling Democrats and opponents ‘Pro-Pedophile’ and “Groomers” in a desperate attempt to take back the House in 2022.
This is the same type demonetization tactics Murderous Dictator Vladimir Putin & Russians are using to justify the “Denazification” of Ukraine… invading, bombing and murdering innocent civilians & children, calling them “Nazis”.
This is the same type of demonetization Hitler used to justify murdering 6 million Jews in Nazi Germany.

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.
Florida Republicans Call To Revoke Disney’s Special Status
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.

How Republicans Are Destroying America and Democracy
If you want to see what Republicans want to do to America, look no further than the state of Florida. This solidly-Republican one-party-rule controlled state is passing all sorts of Draconian laws – from abortion bans to voter suppression to white appeasement legislation – and all of these are items that other states will copy if Florida is successful (while others were stolen from other states that have been successful.) But Florida is going downhill faster than any other state, and it gives Americans a clear picture of what Republicans want to do to the entire country.

Donald Trump Attacks Transgender People to Help Build Border Wall | ACLU
Yesterday, following Trump’s wishes, House Republicans approved $1.6 billion in border wall funding. It’s off to the Senate now, where Democrats have said they will block it. The ACLU opposes construction of the wall because it furthers Trump’s draconian and discriminatory anti-immigrant agenda and puts the rights of people who live near the border in jeopardy.
