Gov Abbott is leading the #GOPDeathCult in cruelty with his booby-trapped buoys: "Abbott has installed circular saws between the Rio Grande border buoys to maim or kill anyone who attempts to climb over," Laiken Jordahl wrote in the post. "Two bodies have already been found trapped in the floating barrier. He wants more migrants to die." Adam Serwer: "Cruelty is the point." https://www.newsweek.com/video-texas-floating-barrier-saws-rio-grande-1818433
An eminent professor and world-leading expert on vaccines has to have dogs sweep his classroom to make sure his students won’t be blown up by anti-vax extremists. #TFG, RW operatives & Republicans are responsible for the threats. Dr Hotez, Dr Fauci, & others have been repeatedly targeted with harassment & death threats. In order to have a vibrant, secure & lasting democracy, this RW domestic terrorist network must be banished. #PublicHealth#Vaccines#AntiVaxxers#GOPDeathCult
One of the leaders of the #GOPDeathCult is promoting a bill that bans mask mandates. He literally wants to infect & kill ppl in the midst of a Covid surge *he epitomizes the Republican party: Vance's bill prohibits govt from forcing you to wear a mask on planes/public transit/in public schools for the next 15 mos. +blocks taxpayer$ to enforce the mandates. #VoteBlue2024 to save lives. Biden admin/CDC aren't doing enough to mitigate #Covid, but they're advocating boosters. https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/must-stop-mask-mandates-before-biden-democrats-force-them-again-heres-how
CNN can confirm that GOP Rep Patrick McHenry, the temporary Speaker, has ordered Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi to exit her Capitol hideaway by tomorrow, as first reported by Politico.
Pelosi is in SF to attend memorial for the late Sen. Feinstein. -Jake Tapper
#MAGADoomLoop: #MAGA Republican: members & MOC are self-immolating: They aren’t giving up -going even further -responded to electoral losses with even more flagrantly anti-democratic maneuvers nationwide🚨. Even as voters are mobilizing to protect democracy at the ballot box, they're redoubling their commitment to the #TFG's anti-majoritarian mode of politics: threaten impeachment to overturn a MI election... This, in turn, is motivating voters even more. #GOPDeathCulthttps://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2023/09/14/trump-2024-chances-michigan-wisconsin/
At a 2019 seminar, SOH Johnson essentially proposed a religious test for candidates. Only those who held a Biblical worldview & saw the US as a "Christian nation" deserved support.
He also compared environmentalists pushing for climate action to the devil.
Texas State Rep James Talarico: "Just this week, a Tim Dunn & Farris Wilks operative (Ella Maulding) espoused the racist Great Replacement Theory. She followed it up with a claim that white people are being “genocided.”
This is the Dunn & Wilks worldview. When they’re not buying politicians, Dunn & Wilks both preach at far-right churches.
They push a theology of power, control, & domination -not universal love.
Another dangerous member of the #GOPDeathCult, threatening over half the US adult population, SC Gov McMasters today at the Republican State Convention: McMaster repeating one of his favorite GOP lines: "I look forward to the day that Democrats are so rare, we have to hunt them with dogs." -Joseph Bustos, reporter
A good omen for Dems in Texas for 2024? Or will most voters side with the #GOPDeathCult again? TX ranked worst state to live in the US -rankings come from the CNBC's yearly research on the best states for bus in 2023. 1 of the 10 criteria for the list is Life, Health & Inclusion -determines the best and worst states to live. CNBC allots 350 possible points to each state, measuring categories such as per capita crime rates, ENVIR quality, health care & worker protections. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2023/07/19/worst-states-to-live-in-2023-cnbc-list/70430783007/
MSM is focused on #TFG. He's not in court today, they could cover how Rs are passing laws that jeopardize the health & lives of IMGs/POC/Women/LGBTQ ppl...
#DeathSantis hid behind closed doors when signing the bill.
"Modern politics: Death of Shame, politicians -no longer shamed of behavior that'd humiliate most decent souls. FL makes it illegal to guarantee shade & water to outdoor WKRS. Recently a FL farm worker died from heat exhaustion."
Pres Biden understands the #ClimateCrisis. His admin is making an impact with the IRA... The #GOPDeathCult must be defeated or we're doomed: He talked re the importance of wealthier nations supporting less wealthy nations prepare for & adapt to the implications of CC. "If we have the economic capacity, we -those nations should be providing help for the nations that don’t have the wherewithal, -eg. Angola: capacity to generate MW of energy thru solar *don’t have the means. https://www.cnbc.com/2023/09/11/biden-global-warming-even-more-frightening-than-nuclear-war.html
"We just voted to allow foster families to exempt foster kids from vaccines. Speaker called on one Dem member then a GOP called the question. Multiple Dem members had their hands raised, me included. We objected to the question, they voted us down and passed this dangerous bill. We took an oath to do nothing injurious to TN citizens, we need discussion on this bill-."
"If the new SOH thinks that guns & cars are equally dangerous weapons, let’s just treat guns like cars. Licenses. Training. INSUR."
-Sen Murphy
Good guys with guns: freeze, don't have the skills... even LE: lousy shots:
"In a community like Lewiston, Von Scott, from ME, was appalled no one stopped the shooter during the attacks. "Really what shocks me is that nobody shot back at him-Part of safety in Maine is that EVERYONE CARRIES.”
Moral decay (exudes from the #GOPDeathCult): GOP: abandoned even a pretense of caring for our country & supporting democracy at home/abroad. Now all they care about are bigots, billionaires, & bullies. There was a time when most Americans regardless of pol affiliation agreed on a basic set of principles: Comity in politics is a good thing & compromise in the name of the public good.
-We want life, liberty, & the pursuit of happiness for all
-Defends other democracies.... https://hartmannreport.com/p/theres-nothing-patriotic-about-todays-e3c

Robert Card had a page on X. He liked posts by conservative politicians & pundits, incl. D Trump Jr, E Musk, T Carlson, CNBC... *Musk posted a video of himself firing a Barrett 50 cal rifle. https://heavy.com/news/robert-card/
McCarthy & GOP MOC will likely force a govt shutdown -withhold funding for FEMA, UA, IRS, DOJ... When more disasters hit the US (we've had 2 in the last 4 weeks), the$ may not be there bc of the #GOPDeathCult: Pres Biden called on Congress Thurs to pass $12B in additional funding for the disaster fund next month, at the latest, when hurricane season reaches its peak. “We’re going to need a whole hell of a lot more money to deal with all you’re taking care of." #CorruptGOPhttps://www.cnbc.com/2023/08/31/fema-is-down-to-its-last-3point4-billion-as-maui-wildfires-storms-idalia-slam-us.html
"DUI arrest footage of newly elected Republican Party of Florida chair Evan Power. He was driving drunk, crashed his car, had a loaded gun with a bullet in the chamber, and the police report apparently mentions he had a bunch of silver bars, like some knockoff Bob Menendez."
-Thomas Kennedy
The Florida Republican Party voted to elect Evan Power as the new CHM after removing Christian Ziegler due to...
Is👿#DeathSantis rooting for #Idalia to hit a Dem stronghold in FL?👿#TFG & Kushner cheered on Covid to spread in Cal. bc: mostly Dem voters. Some members of the #GOPDeathCult view death differently from most of us. DeSantis: 'What we've had in this country is a pretty significant decline in life expectancy -ppl aren’t living as long as they used to, so that should help protect them from losing SS & MDCR protections when they get old." Covid killed ~90K in FL, 85% were 60+🚨 https://floridapolitics.com/archives/631089-desantis-life-expectancy/
