Foe of democracy, Big Lie promoter, and awful person Rep. Andrew Clyde (R-Ga.) refused to shake the hand of a Capitol police officer who was nearly killed by insurrectionist rioters.
Edit: Small aside, one of the insurrectionists who participated in the attack on the Capitol is running for Congress. I guess he's the perfect Republican candidate, sad as that is to say.

Clyde is the guy who referred to the insurrection as a normal tourist visit. He was later shown participating in barricading the doors of the House chamber during the riot.More American children die by gunfire in a year than on-duty police officers and active duty military.Comment

Fox News is pushing a conspiracy theory that it was actually the FBI who orchestrated the insurrection against our nation. But tell me again how they're just the same as MSNBC or CNN, please.More American children die by gunfire in a year than on-duty police officers and active duty military.Comment

It is highly unlikely that the FBI had not infiltrated the groups that attacked the Capitol, but yes that is a far cry from orchestrating it.Originally posted by Bene Futuis View PostIf DMT didn't exist we would have to invent it.

It’s always a “false flag operation” with these losers. They’re so arrogant to believe that not one of their kind can break the law.Originally posted by Bene Futuis View PostComment

The Justice Department is suing the state of Georgia over its controversial bill altering election practices in the state, top federal officials announced Friday.
Republican state legislators around the country have pushed a host of provisions that would make it more challenging for people to vote — moves that have targeted Democratic-leaning voters and disproportionately impact people of color.
“Our complaint alleges that recent changes to Georgia’s election laws were enacted with the purpose of denying or abridging the right of Black Georgians to vote on account of their race or color, in violation of Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act,” U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland said at a press conference announcing the lawsuit.

Gee, whoever could have seen the disastrous effects of the pure-Republican opinion given by SCOTUS in Shelby v. Holder? We are seeing the exact scenarios playing out that were warned of by the liberals and moderates of the Court eight years ago. Conservatives have shown they will do anything, suppress any non-favorable vote, in order to win, democracy be damned.More American children die by gunfire in a year than on-duty police officers and active duty military.Comment

Yeah, for all the bitching that's gone on in the media (and in this forum) about how progressives were fearmongering about Trump and the GOP in general, so much of it has proved far more prescient than even I expected. I remember various folks here complaining 8-10 years ago here about Dominionists and how the religious right wanted a Sharia-style takeover of the government apparatus to enforce conservative Christian norms on society, and I thought at the time it was way overblown--i.e., it existed but was a small and insignificant minority even among conservative Christians. I have sadly been proven badly wrong in my hope on that front.Originally posted by Bene Futuis View Post"Jesus said to them, 'Truly I tell you, the tax collectors and the prostitutes are going into the kingdom of God ahead of you.'"Comment

We're headed for the biggest States right vs Federal law showdown since the civil war. With every State pretty much saying FU to the feds with everything from voting rights, to gun laws, to abortion the next several years should prove very interesting indeed. It's also the biggest reason Biden needs to try and expand the court to get the last 2 stolen Justices back where the should have been and that's on the Liberal side of the court that means 4 new Justices.If I whisper my wicked marching orders into the ether with no regard to where or how they may bear fruit, I am blameless should a broken spirit carry those orders out upon the innocent, for it was not my hand that took the action merely my lips which let slip their darkest wish. ~Daniel Devereaux 2011

Former Attorney General Bill Barr said in a new interview with The Atlantic that the Justice Department always knew Trump's claims of election fraud were "bullsh*t."
