Republicans: continued

This is some fine performative ignorance from Representative Greene. 'Defending history' by getting it wrong in all the right ways to appeal to the red hats.

'Marjorie Taylor Greene visits Union Army monument — which she says honors "Confederate soldiers"'

Georgia Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene on Tuesday appeared to publicly struggle with her state's history during the Civil War.

"Tonight, I stopped at the Wilder Monument in Chickamauga, GA, which honors the Confederate soldiers of the Wilder Brigade," Greene posted to Truth Social. "I will always defend our nation’s history!"

Union Army Colonel John T. Wilder commanded the brigade of mounted infantry armed with 7-shot Spencer repeating rifles.

Mysterious constitutional convention. Maybe a bit easier to get to than an amendment?

Mark Meckler, a founder of the Tea Party who now leads one of the largest groups advocating for the tactic, the Convention of States Action (Cosa), spelled out some of the prime objectives on Bannon’s show. “We need to say constitutionally, ‘No, the federal government cannot be involved in education, or healthcare, or energy, or the environment’,” he said.

Each state could have a convention and decide, voters do not need to be consulted!

The Congress, whenever two thirds of both houses shall deem it necessary, shall propose amendments to this Constitution, or, on the application of the legislatures of two thirds of the several states, shall call a convention for proposing amendments, which, in either case, shall be valid to all intents and purposes, as part of this Constitution, when ratified by the legislatures of three fourths of the several states, or by conventions in three fourths thereof, as the one or the other mode of ratification may be proposed by the Congress; provided that no amendment which may be made prior to the year one thousand eight hundred and eight shall in any manner affect the first and fourth clauses in the ninth section of the first article; and that no state, without its consent, shall be deprived of its equal suffrage in the Senate.

Johnson vs The Black Guy. Scroll a little below. Johnson 3% ahead.

Johnson favored after relentless "democrats want to defund police and open borders and expensive gas" ads. Those foreigners are coming directly from the border to your kids' playground to sell lollipops with fentanyl in them!

Republicans harassing people dropping votes at Arizona drop boxes. Because proper Trump voters vote in person.

Likely some violence will happen at polls in tight race states.

"I can't buy groceries because of Biden's student debt relief!" And the states lost revenue, by not being able to manipulate loans.

“While Plaintiffs present important and significant challenges to the debt relief plan, the current Plaintiffs are unable to proceed to the resolution of these challenges,” Autrey wrote in a 19-page decision. He emphasized that his decision was focused on the state’s lack of standing and was not a comment on the legality of the debt relief plan.

The legal challenge brought by the six Republican officials — in Nebraska, Missouri, Arkansas, Iowa, Kansas and South Carolina — is likely to be appealed. It is widely seen by proponents and critics of the debt relief plan as among the most serious and credible challenges.

The decision was, in part, a vindication of the Biden administration’s legal strategy to suddenly curtail its debt relief program without warning in September, which drew the ire of many borrowers and some progressives.

In a reversal, the Education Department announced Sept. 29 that it would no longer allow borrowers with federal loans held by private entities to convert their loans in a way that qualifies them for the relief program.

Several of the GOP-led states had argued that forgiving those privately-held federal student loans would harm state-related organizations that own or invest in them.

Fox News is pushing a fake story where the CDC will force covid vaccination on young children.

Dchool districts even in red states require normal vaccinations.
