Texas GOP claims Biden's election was rigged and demand ...
a vote on secession
Several thoughts come to mind:
If Biden stole the election ... why would Republicans bother voting again?
If Republicans really believe that Biden stole the election
why have they done absolutely nothing to fix the system so it doesn't happen again?
The answer is that Republicans are quite aware that Trump lost the election.
The reason they have done nothing about it is because there is nothing to fix.
They are also quite aware that their base of support (conservatives)
are certifiable nutjobs who (as Trump proved) can be lied to, thousands of times,
right to their faces ... and their eyes don't even blink.
Behold - the awesome power of brainwashing.
(and if you ask them why they are going to vote when nothing was done to fix things ...
you will simply get a blank stare, a raised fist, and a loud MAGA Shout)
UPDATE 2/5/24
1869 scotus decision (Texas V. White) rules out ... secession.

Joseph Goebbels (Hitler's propaganda minister)
Wikiquote - Joseph Goebbels
This quote explains why Trump repeats nearly everything he says:
“
The most brilliant propagandist technique will yield no success
unless one fundamental principle is borne in mind constantly -
it must confine itself to a few points and repeat them over and over.”
Here is a misquote of Goebbels that has been judged to be "partly true"
Almost a century later - and nearly half of voting-age Americans are falling for the same spiel.
Trump should have received only a few percentage points from the lobotomy party.
Considering that we have television, the internet, and history to learn from ...
What is our excuse?

U.S. Vice President Mike Pence
He spoke at the Air Force Academy’s 2020 graduation
Pence told the cadets that by setting off to defend the nation, they ...
"
inspire confidence that we will prevail
against the invisible enemy in our time as well."
What Pence didn’t tell the cadets was that in over 200 years,
the U.S. has never been invaded, and that,
since we are by far the most powerful atomically-armed nation on the planet,
no nation would dare to try it.
What Pence also didn’t tell the cadets was that
they weren’t setting off to defend the nation (as that is unnecessary),
but that they were actually setting off to assist
in plundering less powerful nations.
As for Pence’s “invisible enemy,”
that is a delusion that he
and over a hundred million Americans
are still dealing with every day,
as ancient immoral, barbaric fairy tales
still maintain their terrorizing hold
on the majority of the population in our nation.

Sinclair Broadcasting is "the top US television broadcast group"
and they actively work to promote the conservative agenda.
They are attempting to increase their influence by acquiring Tribune Media.
But in a move that has left me puzzled, FCC Chairman Ajit Pai,
who in the past has labored in the service of Sinclair Broadcasting,
surprised everyone by proposing that the matter be referred to an administrative law judge.
The move could result in a lengthy delay and could effectively kill the deal.

Tired of banging your head against a wall, trying to reason with Trump supporters?
Wish you could smash them over the head and make it explode?
Try this one ...
Get them to admit that Bill Clinton was rightfully impeached for lying.

Now point out that Trump isn't being threatened with impeachment for collusion,
he is being threatened with impeachment for lying about it
and for conspiring with others to hide the truth.

that Fox had bought the National Geographic?
Well, Rupert Murdoch just took over ... and it wasn't pretty
The golden nugget in that article was this:
"

Here is a picture of Murdoch's media empire.
Here is a preview of the new first issue ...
(spoiler alert: this is intended to be a spoof)
UPDATE
Okay - the December 2015 issue is now on sale!
Let's contrast the front page cover stories

The Fox empire is attacking America on all fronts.
Religion has always been, and still is,

Rupert Murdoch and the National Geographic

Remember the story about 8 months ago
when the Senate confessed (by a vote of 98-1)
that Climate Change was real?
(and since this vote wasn't based
on any recent scientific breakthrough data,
it was an admission by Republicans
that they had been lying to the public)
And now we have Kevin McCarthy admitting on TV
that the purpose of exploiting the deaths of Americans in Benghazi
was to smear Hillary Clinton.
So, have Fox News viewer ratings slumped?
Actually they're skyrocketing
See the problem?
Our family, friends, and neighbors (who identify as Conservatives)
simply don't care about truth and Republicans know it.
They can lie to them all day long
and then tell them that they've been lying to them,
and Republicans know that at the end of the day,
that their loyal base will always be there.
If you need any more evidence
that "these people" have a severe mental disorder
then I can't help you - it couldn't be any more clear.
Rational people flee for the hills when they learn they've been lied to,
and they seek alternative sources of information that they can trust.
So why do Conservatives remain true
even after they've been told that they've been lied to?
Likely because their egos (pride)
will not allow them admit that they've been fooled and lied to,
even when they are told so ... right to their faces.
And here's an example of a tragic story
that is playing out all across America right now ...
and is tearing America apart
Our problem is much more serious than most people realize.
How do you fix tens of millions of mentally screwed-up people?
You can't force them into psychoanalysis;
and based on what I reported above,
many of them would simply refuse
to allow themselves to be helped anyway
because their egos would never allow it.
Whoever discovers the answer to this problem
and is able to apply it to put humanity back on the rails,
will deserve to be honored for eternity.

The Science of Fox News: Why Its Viewers Are the Most Misinformed
Analysis
It was an interesting article but it left me unfulfilled.
I wanted to know
why  the authoritarian personality hides in the Fox Bubble.
I believe it is because they cannot defend their positions;
and the reason they cannot, is because their positions are provably wrong.
But the ego / pride of the authoritarian personality
will never allow them to admit that they could be wrong.
So they are forced to hide in the Fox Bubble with the like-minded where they can all feel safe.
While it also involves a great deal of mental laziness,
pride (specifically - the need to feel superior)
is the overwhelming factor that spurs them to defend their nonsense against science and facts.
Sound like the religious mind?
It's not a coincidence:
the Fox Bubble is where American Evangelicals live.

Since they couldn't get it reinstated on the facts, they resorted to:
"
significant, serious value for minors

As usual, it's not about right or wrong, facts or lies, it's about power.

You claim to be the biggest supporters of God and Country.
At all Republican gatherings we can count on seeing 2 things:

So here is my question:
Why do you ship millions of American jobs

overseas to Communist China
where there is barely a Christian to be found?
If I had to hazard a guess, I would say
that it is to increase your profits and avoid paying taxes.
You don't worship Christians nor do you cherish America.

I don't normally make predictions,

but here is what I am predicting Conservatives will do
once they gain total control over U.S. government in 2017.
They will finally have the power to accomplish
what they have been trying to do for over 150 years ...
Officially declare America a "Christian Nation"
Christian Nation Amendments were attempted in
1864, 1874, 1896, 1910, & 1954.
Even ultra-conservative icon Barry Goldwater feared the Religious Right,
and correctly predicted the trap America was falling into ...
If America is a Christian Nation,
why have Christians tried so hard (and failed)
to amend our Constitution to declare America ... a Christian Nation?

Approximately 25% of Americans are religiously unaffiliated.
How much are they underrepresented in Congress?
They are underrepresented by a factor of ...

Here's a popular Republican Christian bumper sticker about Obama
(from the 2012 presidential election) taken from Psalms 109:8-9:
"
Let his days be few; and let another take his office.
Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow."
This is how Republican Christians support their own president ...
when he's not from their party.
This is what passes for patriotism among Republican Christians.
That is why they wave the flag so furiously
and criticize others as unpatriotic.
It is to distract everyone from the fact
that they are the least patriotic of all Americans.
Why are they the least patriotic of all Americans?
Because their allegiance ... is to a higher power

I found this on the internet, written by "Bill Pfeifer."
It is an excellent description; detailing the fall of the GOP
from a conservative organization into a cult of kooks.
“
The Right used to be comprised of conservatives,
but as that ideology does not have enough adherents
to be politically viable in an educated populace,
they made the decision to deliberately attract the idiots and the crazies
in order to swell their ranks.
As those felt validated and became louder and louder,
a feedback loop began, where the Right felt obligated
to cater much more to them than to the conservatives.
People like Donald Trump or Tucker Carlson
are no conservatives by any stretch of the imagination;
they use misinformation and conspiracy theories
to keep the crazies in a perpetual state of anger and outrage.
Granted, there remain true conservatives in Congress,
who are deeply concerned about the monster
which the GOP has become, but they are scared.
Any deviation from the official propaganda line,
and they risk getting “primaried” by a crackpot,
who has no chance in the general election.
So, they think, 'Do I pretend to support Trump and the Big Lie,
to the consternation of my conservative constituents,
or hand my seat to a Democrat by antagonizing the crazies?'
Some of them have given up, do not seek re-election,
and thus are free to speak up against that craziness.
The January 6 violent insurrection gave the conservatives hope
that the crazies had gone so far over the line that they were done,
and many came out of their shell to speak out
against that attempt to destroy our democracy.
But the crazies are by now too numerous in the GOP,
and the conservatives had to eat their words
and pretend they didn’t mean it.
But to go back to your concern, yes I believe that as of right now,
the Right as a political movement is into conspiracy theories
and that they are its defining characteristic.”

Conservatives live far shorter lives than Liberals and ...
citizens of other advanced nations
Recent elections (such as 2016 Clinton-Trump and 2020 Biden-Trump)
reveal that it is far more informative to look,
not at the Red-state/Blue-state dichotomy,
but at a map showing local (county-level) voting.
Then you can clearly see the two Americas that have emerged:
(red) rural and interior America and (blue) metropolitan and coastal America.
The (
"Rubes" )

and urge the faithful to pack the churches (maskless of course).

The evolution of the Republican party can be divided into 3 periods:
They began as the "Party of Lincoln" and were responsible ending slavery;
which had been supported mainly by Southern Democrats (the South was completely "Blue").
But when Democratic President Lyndon Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act in 1964
and the Voting Rights Act in 1965, racist elements within the Southern Democrats felt betrayed
and switched their allegiance to the Republican party (that's why the South is now "Red").
Nixon took advantage of this to win the presidency in 1968 by instituting the "Southern Strategy."
About 40 years later, the Republican party continued its voyage to "The Dark Side"
as the Oligarchs concentrated their efforts on America's most gullible and easily manipulated faction ... "Evangelicals."
Evangelicals are Christians in name only. They stand against everything that Jesus stood for ...
but they can't get enough of Jesus' Old Man: you know, the Guy who never met a living creature, animal or human ...
that He didn't want dead.
The Oligarchs molded the Republican party into a cohesive voting unit built around a party platform
that catered to its various factions: Evangelicals, Racists, and Greedy Capitalists
(those are Capitalists who are cursed with uncontrollable greed).
That was a brief, general overview of the moral degradation that has turned a once-proud political party
into an enemy of the people: the greatest enemy America has faced ... since the Civil War.

Neuroscientists at UCLA test subjects for altruism

"
Participants whose dorsomedial prefrontal cortex was dampened,
tended to be more generous overall."
"But those whose dorsolateral prefrontal cortex was dampened
tended to be more generous to recipients with higher incomes —
people who appeared to be less in need of a handout."
“Normally, participants would have been expected to give according to need,
but with that area of the brain dampened,
they temporarily lost the ability for social judgments to affect their behavior ...."
They should have tested them for political affiliation.
Any bets on which group Republicans would fall into?

1972
George McGovern (Dem) was defeated by Richard Nixon (Rep) in 1972.
McGovern (pictured) admited that Nixon's "Southern Strategy" was the key.
Here is McGovern describing the "Southern Strategy":
“
What is the Southern Strategy? It is this. It says to the South:
Let the poor stay poor, let your economy trail the nation,
forget about decent homes and medical care for all your people,
choose officials who will oppose every effort to benefit the many
at the expense of the few—and in return,
we will try to overlook the rights of the black man ...."
So how did the party of Lincoln turn the Democratic South
into the bastion of Republican dominance that it is today?
As you just read above, they convinced all the racists to switch sides.
This was made possible by LBJ only a few years earlier
when he betrayed Southern Democrats
by signing the Civil Rights Act in 1964
and the Voting Rights Act in 1965.
LBJ predicted that Democrats would lose the South after he signed the Acts.
And his prognostication abilities proved to be dead on.

We are battling people, for whom truth has no value.

Here is a Gallup Poll from 2 weeks before the 2012 election:
Romney Leads Obama by 7 Points
This poll was so far removed from all the other polls
(which basically had the election too close to call)
that many wondered what the hell was going on with Gallup.
It sounded more like a poll at Fox News, which, as most people are now aware,
is the propaganda arm of the Republican party.
Then, about a month after the election,
I happened upon this Gallup Poll:
God Is Alive and Well
No where in the article is there much mention
of the tremendous changes occurring in America
as Ghost Worship continues to disintegrate
and Secularism rises to the highest levels ever recorded.
There are almost no comparisons with previous results,
and where there are, they are carefully worded.
The book "God is alive and well" is referred to in multiple places.
The article sounds like it was written by Rick Warren,
offering hope to Christians in spite of the gloomy results.
Now I'm adding one plus one and I'm starting to make out the number two.
That whole Romney-thing was a desperate attempt
to rally the base at the last minute in a vain attempt to pull off a miracle;
and they were willing to sacrifice their credibility to make it happen.
From this point on, I no longer trust the Gallup organization.
It seems clear to me that, like Fox News,
they will view the facts in whatever context necessary to promote their ideology;
and their ideology always seem to coincide with the ideology of ...

can be understood simply by looking at the 2022 & 2024 election predictions.
It IS working.
"Republicans don't just seem inhuman ... they ARE inhuman.
That's why the shooting deaths of countless kids doesn't even phase them.
It's a lot easier to understand them once you realize
that brainwashed people no longer think the way the rest of us do.

Democrats strategize how to protect kids against ...
Republicans bent on killing them
In the Twentieth Century, if you had predicted this,
no one would have believed you.
Yet we see it happening with our own eyes.
It's almost like we are trapped in a science fiction horror movie
and cannot find our way out.
The similarities with the Jim Jones Death Cult are eerie.
Those brainwashed zombies murdered hundreds of their own children
with poisoned Kool-Aid to prove their loyalty to the cult.

What is not told in the story is that conservatives still support their cult
and will willingly sacrifice their own children to prove their loyalty.
(If the name "Jim Jones" just crossed your mind - then your memory is working fine.
If you are not familiar with the name, now would be an excellent time to google it).
THAT ... demonstrates the awesome, amazing power of the brainwashing techniques used by cults.
(it's small consolation but - brainwashing only works on the "Feebles")

A Federal Court strikes down Republican's attempt ...
to cut food stamps to Americans
There really aren't any words adequate enough
to describe the evil that America is experiencing.
Yet, in an awesome display of the incredible power of brainwashing,
the election in 2 weeks could still go either way.
When threatened, even plants try to protect themselves from predators
by secreting chemicals in a desperate attempt to survive.
Nearly half of Americans are going out of their way to prove that
they have no where near the intelligence or survival instincts of ...
plants

who killed their children with Kool-Aid.
Behold the awesome power of brainwashing

Unless lives were sacrificed at the altar of profits for The Big Boys.

For those of you who refuse to acknowledge that Republicans kill Americans
for no other reason than profit and power,
maybe this article will give you an idea of the kind of people
who now control all branches of our government
If that article didn't pull on your heartstrings
then you are probably a Republican.
Just take a close look at which organizations are on which side of the issue
and it looks like a good guys vs. bad guys action movie.
Killing is what they do. People; animals; it doesn't matter.
As long as there is money in it ... they're interested.

Sharia Law remains intact in New Hampshire ...

So Republicans are always the ones who are on the front lines attacking Sharia
and then they go out of their way to prove
that they have an awful lot in common with those Medieval scumbags

When Republicans go nuts over Obama's immigration action
you might want to keep in mind ...
this fact that Republicans are hiding from you
This is another example of the horror of the 2-party system
that the Founding Fathers tried to warn us about.
Neither side wants to see the other succeed, so they fight,
and the ones who suffer the most are ... Americans.
But as the article above made clear,
between the two parties, only one fights for the average American;
the other only has an interest in protecting and expanding ...
the profits of the rich

Conservatives have been using their governmental power
to shut down any dissent that exposes their anti-American activities
That is the very definition of Fascism.
Quote ...
"
In response to the news of SIO's pullback,
Republican Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio,
who has spearheaded efforts to discredit researchers
through his chairmanship of the House Judiciary Committee,
posted on X on Friday: 'Free speech wins again!'"
That is classic Republican propaganda:
Accuse the other side of exactly what you are guilty of.
It's why they call themselves "patriots"
after betraying their country.
Sadly, conservatives lack the mental firepower
to defend themselves against these
primitive mind-control techniques.

Republicans attempt to save the profits of the 'Big Boys' ...
at the expense of the rest of us (as always)
Here are the 'money quotes' from the article:
"
the federal regulation raises a list of 'statutory and constitutional concerns
and would cause great harm to the states'."
Interpretation: by "states" they mean "the big boys"
"
Once again, the courts have affirmed that the Biden administration’s WOTUS rule
is overreaching and harmful to America’s beef farmers and ranchers "
That statement was more honest than the first one above,
but makes it clear, exactly whom is being protected here.
"
President Biden days ago vetoed a congressional resolution
that would have overturned the rule."
If Republicans can't work through the legislature,
they then turn to the courts to protect Big Boy profits.
Now you see why they stack the courts (including the SCOTUS)
with corrupt people who will interpret the law -
the way the Big Boys need them to interpret the law.
"
the EPA rule blocked by the judge is supported by science and the law
and that the judge was misreading the purpose of the Clean Water Act."
That's what Republican judges are paid to do.
It's hard to believe that half of voting-age Americans either,
cannot see, or don't care, that 21
st century Republicans
are the greatest enemy that we have faced since the Civil War.
And to make it even more unbelievable,
Republicans know that they don't even have to hide their betrayal.
We are witnessing, on a daily basis, the awesome power of ...

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg ... R.I.P.
Ginsburg dies of pancreatic cancer at age 87
Her goal was to outlive this Republican presidency ... she almost made it.
Remember when Republicans refused to fill the Supreme Court vacancy in Obama’s last year?
Remember when Republicans said that the American people should decide?
In case you forgot, here's the quote from Senator Mitch McConnell ...
"
The American people are choosing their next president,
and their next president should pick this Supreme Court nominee."
Show of hands ... how many of you believe
that they will remain loyal and consistent with their previous position?
Just as I thought. No hands.
There isn’t an honest bone to be found
inside a single Republican anywhere.

Remember the last 8 years when you couldn't pay Congressmen to do their jobs?
Remember all the vacations?
And when they did show up, they accomplished less than any congress in U.S. history.
Remember the 60-some-odd votes to repeal Health Care?
Remember the government shutdown?
Remember them blocking more judicial appointments than all previous presidents ...
COMBINED?
Well now look at these industrious little beavers
The sooner they unburden the rich from paying for health care
the sooner they can move on to other important things,
like eliminating taxes for the rich and the big corporations.
Now we get to see what it takes to get these guys to actually work.
But the greatest line from the story was this one from McConnell ...
"
and tackle the backlog of critical nominations
that have been mindlessly stalled by Democrats."
Sometimes even I ... am at a loss for words

2015
The 113th Congress (2013-2014) has received the lowest ratings
of any congress in history from American voters.
They seem to be perpetually on vacation,
where they accomplish just about as much
as when they are in session and "working."
Question: do they deserve the title of
"The Worst Legislature in U.S. History"
Well, about half of them do: the Republican half.
It is disturbing that many blame Congress as a whole,
when it couldn't be more obvious that the blame rests
almost entirely on Republican lawmakers.
They have spent the last 6 years doing everything in their power
to bring America to a grinding halt in a desperate attempt to regain power
by fooling ignorant Americans into believing that the blame lies elsewhere.
We elected them and paid them to provide us with government.
Instead all we got in return was
Bible-thumping, flag-waving, and obstruction of government.
Republican lawmakers actively work for the rich
against the interests of the other 99% of Americans.
The non-rich Republican base doesn't realize
that they are voting against their own self-interests
when they support Republican politicians.
Yet the polls show that brainwashed Republican voters
continue to support these seditious American politicians,
plan to reelect most of them, and vote in new ones;
possibly giving control of both houses of congress to Republicans.
This means that our long national nightmare is far from over.
The only solution I can see, is that the masses must develop
the rational thinking skills necessary to vote intelligently,
if they are to free themselves from being so easily manipulated ...
by greedy, evil people
UPDATE
They did take over both Houses of Congress.
Now, the only piece of the puzzle that they do not own is the Presidency
and they will likely get that in 2016

Last year when Republicans didn't get their way
they shut down the government and threatened to destroy our economy;
all to prevent the poorest, sickest Americans from getting health care.
So how do they top that?
By inciting violence and anarchy
Now Republicans are willing to urge the country into violent chaos;
all to prevent immigration reform.
It's not like Americans didn't see this coming.
Last year Republicans gave us a sneak peak
at how far they were willing to go if not given their way.
Republicans continue to push the lie that Obama governs like a dictator
knowing full well that it is their own actions
which force him to take executive action;
and even then, when you check the facts ...
they don't support that lie
The only presidents since the 19th century
who have issued fewer executive orders than Obama
were those who served fewer years.
Per year, Obama has used his executive powers less
than any president in well over a hundred years.
