Capitol Hill Blue Forums Political Issues The Legal Forum Are SCOTUS Republicans in on a plot to end Democratic presidencies forever?

***off topic***

...but Laura Logan was just fired from Newsmax for spouting the "dine on the blood of children during wild satanic rituals" line on-air. Laura has gone to the dark side. The poor dear hasn't been the same since that horrific vicious gang sexual attack during her coverage of the "Arab Spring" in 2011 Cairo for CBS News.

No, I didn't. Why did you assume I would...perhaps it's because you skip over everything I write as soon as you get triggered?

I'm sure it's a very important argument. But it's an argument, not a fact. You seem to accept it as a fact. One that hasn't happened yet but it will. And must be accepted as god's own truth against which no other argument may be heard.

That's the kind of "facts" you keep pounding me with to prove to me that America is a failed democracy. Facts that might happen someday or might not. And every new report proves that the future is just as you say and set in stone and no argument may be heard...

Republicans are real. Just like climate change. Either you learn to mitigate the damage or you become extinct.

So if I say that our democracy is being eroded in cases like Vega v. Tokoh I'm not panicking or being hysterical.
I'm just mitigating by pointing out the ongoing erosion.

Yes. I won't argue that our democracy is being eroded in many cases and places. But that doesn't spell the end of it to me.

When has democracy not been under attack? From without and from within.

And when have Americans dropped the flag and run?

I think I get Greger's thinking: There is smoke and fire - but the forest isn't going to completely burn down.

Under the state’s new Election Integrity Act, Georgia citizens can challenge a voter’s eligibility on the state’s voting rolls an unlimited number of times.
Gee, nothing to panic about there!

Early voters in Georgia face obstacles under state’s new election law


Not even poll workers, just any ordinary Georgia CITIZEN.
That means ANY slack-jawed toothless white supremacist in Georgia can walk around the polling place and say
"I don't like that boy over thar...that BOY looks suspicious...that BLACK BOY raht over yonder!"

Just ninety percent of it.

And see! You go right from intelligent assessment to hysteria and panic, just like that.

Drop the flag and run for your lives America is under attack!

It's almost as if there's a hidden Jeff Haas altar ego and only Greger can see him.
I don't ever remember saying "drop the flag and run for your lives".

If I'm lucky I might have another ten years here above ground, right?
The thing about old men with little or nothing left to lose is that most of them seldom RUN from something like a nation being destroyed from within.

Oh well, back to the Jeff Haas that lives inside your head, I guess.

By the way, have you noticed how comfortable the right is with open antisemitism these days?
At least a dozen House or Senate candidates have been muttering about "Deh Jooz", chief among them Marjorie Taylor-Greene who may become the defacto kingmaker under McCarthy in a Republican controlled House.
And there is at least one former President who is directing the antisemite choir, by the way.

White nationalism, especially Christian White Nationalism, never rests in one stage, it is always in flux in the direction of militance and authoritarianism, both of which make up the foundation for pogroms.

I guess the Jews in Germany in the 1930's were hysterical.
