Editorial: The Big Lie — How Texas steals your voting rights while you are sleeping
There’s a certain irony, and brazen hypocrisy, in the fact that Republican senators were perfectly comfortable voting past midnight last month on a bill that would ensure Texas voters cannot do the same at the late-night polling places Republicans are trying to ban.

In his ruling Alito mentioned a lack of babies to adopt. He doesn’t care that there is lots of older kids needing homes, but he was only worried about the babies. Why? Could it be because as they grow they are the easiest to indoctrinate into religion and bigotry? Here one of the leaders of the right claims forcing white women to carry pregnancy to term will help stop the white people from becoming a losing their majority power. Make women forced to birth facing death and long-term physical damage so white babies may be born. But really what they are saying is that women mean nothing if they can possibly get a white male child or a girl child they can force to give birth to more kids. At what point do these people mandate how many babies / kids each white family has to increase the white race? Will there be a minimum number of children for the white women? How long until these people start insisting that people of color that have more than one child be sterilized? This seems to have been their plan for a long time. All due to fear of a time when they wont be the most powerful. Why would they fear that? Could it be that they have been so horrible to others while they have power they are worried that those they mistreated would respond in kind to them? Maybe they should just try to be nice and treat everyone fairly. Hugs
“Roe v. Wade is being adjudicated at the Supreme Court right now, for people that believe that we somehow need to replace populations or bring in new workers, I think it is an appropriate first step to give the enshrinement in law the right to life for our own unborn children.
“If you say there is a population problem in a country, but you’re killing millions of your own people through legalized abortion every year, if that were to be reduced, some of that problem is solved. You have millions of people who can take many of these jobs.
“How come no one brings that up? If you’re worried about this quote-unquote replacement, why don’t we start there? Start with allowing our own people to live.” – Matt Schlapp, speaking today at CPAC Hungary.
The majority of white people will be able to travel to states and still get abortions. Its poor black and brown that are going to be forced to give birth. JFC, these folks dont even understand basic economic reality.
Worse. They understand, but they also know it’ll force continued generational poverty for those unable to obtain abortions. Which will keep “those” people out of view (except for crime stats and other ways of making them seem lesser/undesirable), and continue the broadening difference between the haves and the have nots, both in terms of color and wealth/education/opportunity.

There is a large underclass of Caucasian poor who will not be able to do so. It is important to keep a steady supply of poorly educated, impoverished white people to do menial work as well as to join the military to fight in our wars overseas. Running an empire requires a large pool of potential soldiers.

Legal weed is something conservatives can’t stop and they are shitting their pants about it because incarcerating young black non violent offenders is so incredibly profitable and provides a conveyor belt of cash back to conservative politicians. More poor black and brown kids are a guarantee that the cash flow doesn’t stop.
Conservative are heinous.

It will give them something to bitch about. More minority babies on food stamps and Medicaid.
Plus, its good for fund raising.
Adam Schmidt Lazycrockett • 5 days ago
Republicans aren’t worried about that. They can fuck over health care enough so that the poor (read black) people die.
“Forced pregnancies.”
That’s what he’s saying. That’s what he wants. Women are to be enslaved by the state for the purpose of pumping out babies. And the unspoken part is he wants them to be white babies.
“The First Amendment right, which is our right to worship Jesus freely, that’s how we have a country. That’s how we have Georgia. That’s how we have – our founding fathers came over here and destroyed American Indians’ homes and their land.
“They took it. Look at what they did to Native Americans for sacrifice. For us to have the freedom we have today.
“Communism, perversion, and oppression is being taught to our children. It’s unethical. And it needs to be put into the code of ethics for teachers and their certificates.
“I promise you, no make how woke they are, they’ll shut up. They have mortgages and car payments. I’m Kandiss Taylor, I’m the one you’ve been waiting for.”
Taylor last appeared on JMG when she dramatically ripped up photos of Gov. Brian Kemp and former Sen. David Perdue, declaring “I believe in Jesus, guns, and babies.” Taylor is a graduate of Pat Robertson’s Regent University.
So she is admitting that the founding fathers killed Indians and stole their land?
Does she realize she is teaching Critical Race Theory?
2patricius2 Chris Baker • 5 days ago
Yes. It’s a good thing she is not in a state that prosecutes people for admitting that the founding fathers committed genocide so they could steal the land of the inhabitants. Now is she also going to admit they enslaved and tortured and sold Black people so they could prosper economically?
Adam Schmidt Chris Baker • 5 days ago
Even more, she’s saying that we committed ethnic cleansing and it was a good thing because it’s what Jesus wanted.
Yves R. Mektin Chris Baker • 5 days ago
They had no choice. The Indians were Comminists and Satanists (before anybody had ever told them about Satan or Marx).
We are back sliding. Fast.
You know that shithole countries 45 mentioned? Yea, it’s here.
So your “pro-life” religion killed millions and took their lands, committing ethnic cleansing and genocide, forcing the remnants into camps, to secure your freedom? And you’re proud of this? You think you should keep doing it?
You are a monster and a horrible human being.
Here it is: The American Taliban will kill you if you don’t agree to worship Jesus they way they tell you.
There wont be a public education system in 20 years if these idiots continue to get their way.
Uncle Mark’s ugly face returns Lazycrockett • 5 days ago
Hell, I’m wondering what kind of education system we had that churned out these curds.
“They took it. Look at what they did to Native Americans for sacrifice. For us to have the freedom we have today.”
Uhh.. call me old fashioned, but “sacrifice”, to me, means someone chooses to give something up. Not have that choice inflicted upon them. Always knew that MAGAts used a different dictionary… and views on reality itself…
“Congressional Republicans have introduced a resolution creating a “Women’s Bill of Rights” that mentions just one right, but only for cis women: the right to not see trans women in a public restroom. The rest of the Women’s Bill of Rights is about definitions and the government’s powers. “The Democrats are erasing women and the spaces that are uniquely ours,” Rep. Debbie Lesko (R-AZ), who is trying to get the resolution passed in the House. Despite leading Republicans on the Women’s Bill of Rights, she has been endorsed by Arizona Right to Life and the Susan B. Anthony List because of her staunch opposition to reproductive freedom. The House version of the resolution has 11 co-sponsors and the Senate version was introduced by Sens. Cindy Hyde-Smith (R-MO), Ted Cruz (R-TX), and Cynthia Lummis (R-WY), who just got booed last week for mocking transgender people at a commencement speech and then lied about what she said, getting booed even more. The Republican Women’s Bill of Rights lists six points that it affirms. The first three are definitions. The fourth is about the right of cis women to not see trans women in certain spaces. And the last two are about the government’s actions, not women’s rights. The resolution’s first point says, “for purposes of Federal law, a person’s ‘sex’ means his or her biological sex (either male or female) at birth,” without saying exactly how that should be determined. While several physical aspects of people’s bodies are associated with gender, like chromosomes, genitalia, and hormone levels, they don’t necessarily align and have often been used to tell some women – especially women of color – that they’re not really women.”
“The family of a 12-year-old who they say sustained a traumatic brain injury after she was restrained by a school security officer is suing the Kenosha police department and school district for damages. “On March 4, 2022, an adult man lost his temper and choked a child until she suffered a traumatic brain injury. Officer Shawn Guetschow violated Wisconsin criminal and civil law when he held his knee against the back of the neck of a twelve-year-old girl at Lincoln Middle School,” read documents shared with Insider by the family’s lawyer, Drew DeVinney. Guetschow is seen in a security video from the school cafeteria breaking up a fight between two students and then kneeling on the neck of a 12-year-old girl for nearly 25 seconds before handcuffing her and removing her from the room. “Officer Shawn Guetschow told investigating officers that he ‘blacked out’ and does not remember pulling Jane Doe to the floor, smashing her head into the hard tile surface, or getting on top of her and choking her with his knee,” the document shared with Insider added in a footnote.”
