Migrant Buses and the Governments inability to respond to a crisis - Part 2: Ice is just water in another form to drown Migrants for Greg Abbott

So, Chicago is gripped in an epic freeze with temperatures reaching negative 15 for several days in a row.  Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker implored Greg Abbott to not send bus and plane loads of migrants to Rockford and Chicago.

Governor Abbott,

The ongoing international migration crisis that our nation faces demands a strong, compassionate, and humane response. We agree that our nation needs immigration reform, but instead of advocating for that, you have chosen to sow chaos in an attempt to score political points. You are now sending asylum seekers from Texas to the Upper Midwest in the middle of winter — many without coats, without shoes to protect them from the snow — to a city whose shelters are already overfilled with migrants you sent here. Chicago’s temperatures this weekend are forecast to drop below zero. Your callousness, sending buses and planes full of migrants in this weather, is now life-threatening to every one of the arrivals. Hundreds of children’s and families’ health and survival are at risk due to your actions.

We refuse to play your political game of exploiting the most vulnerable for the sake of culture wars.

But, to the cold-blooded Abbott this signals weakness and that his strategy is winning.  And I must admit, frightening white people about immigration and demonizing migrants is a winning strategy for Republicans.  In the just completed Iowa Caucuses,

About 4 in 10 GOP caucusgoers chose immigration as the most important issue facing the country, according to AP VoteCast. About one-third said it was the economy. Fewer people named other priorities, including foreign policy, health care, abortion or energy.

The vast majority, about three-quarters, say immigrants are a negative for the country, an indication that caucusgoers are not only seeking more order on the U.S. southern border but major cuts on how many foreigners can come into the country.

"The vast majority say immigrants are a negative for the country..."  For many years Republicans have slowly warped rightwingers minds about immigration and laws.  Rightwingers angrily declare 'Those people are breaking the law' and when white people believe a Person of Color (PoC) is breaking the law whites demand government agencies and law enforcement exact maximum punishment including extrajudicial execution on the spot.

To Greg Abbott that's a Siren's Call to action.  Abbott has been accused by multiple local, state, and federal agents of ordering migrants crossing to be pushed back into the river.  Well, Abbott can claim 3 bodies.

Three migrants, a woman and two children, drowned in the Rio Grande in Eagle Pass, Texas – very recently the epicenter of the migrant crisis – just days after state authorities blocked the US Border Patrol from accessing miles of the US-Mexico border in that area, officials said.

Yet... Greg Abbott and Republicans in Texas will proudly call themselves the Party of Life and defender of children.  Of course, Abbott is blaming Biden for this just like his Lt. Governor Dan Patrick claimed Biden is the Real Insurrection!

“The only thing that we're not doing is we're not shooting people who come across the border, because of course, the Biden administration would charge us with murder,” Abbott said during the Jan. 5 radio interview with Dana Loesch, a former editor at Breitbart News and spokesperson for the National Rifle Association.

Now, Dana Loesch used to be the "Hawt" Republican babe who through clenched jaw and cracked teeth spit out rightwing invective and propaganda.  Loesch has been strangely silent on the ouster of Wayne LaPierre from her employer the NRA (Nasty Russian A$$holes) gun club after 47 years in Washington DC.  But, she apparently has a radio show to continue pumping out her love of gun violence.

Rightwingers like to claim they are simply dispassionately applying the law, objectively and without any bias this is captured in the missive by Ben SShaprio that "Facts don't care about your feelings".   In reality, rightwingers are ill-mannered emotional terrorists, easily triggered, and readily offended when the law is applied to them.  Because they demand the most lenient application for themselves and the most rigid ruthless interpretation for others.  This is aptly demonstrated by the Republican insistence that January 6th criminals and seditious insurrectionists are, in fact, "Hostages" of the weaponized Biden DoJ.

So, Abbott is going to keep up his human trafficking campaign sending ill-equipped people north into deep sub zero temperatures and applaud himself for all the people who will become just another hidden death from the cold in Cook County.

A massive mass shooting at a Sweet 16 party in Alabama and a 16 year old black kid shot for ringing the wrong doorbell

"You always were hell and Jesus with a pistol, Bob. And seven of them... Did you kill all seven of them dead or did you just wing some of them?" - Little Bill Daggett Unforgiven, (1992).

30* people were shot at a Sweet 16 birthday party.  From the Washington Post article, 

DADEVILLE, Ala. — A small town in Alabama became the latest American community to reckon with gun violence, after four people including a high school football star were killed and at least 28 were injured in a shooting that authorities said happened during a teenager’s birthday party.

The New York Post and other rightwing rags immediately went with BLACKS BLACKS BLACKS. And Faux News has been all over the "Wilding" in downtown Chicago by the young blacks to demonstrate why white America needs 400,000,000 guns, i.e. Blacks may show up at your door and rape your wife, kidnap your white babies, and steal your car.  Shoot'em.  The shooting in Kansas City, MO provides the perfect demonstration of this as 16 year old Ralph Yarl, who *allegedly* went to the wrong door, and the homeowner treated his 10pm ding-dong with hot lead to the head and another while the child lay on the ground.  I say allegedly because the one unforgivable crime in America is to be black.  Whiteness is a panacea which washes clean all Sins.

There is a subtext behind all the ills plaguing America; White Christians are blameless and not guilty of offenses; I t's kind of the White Supremacist version of No True Scotsman fallacy.  No true white person commits a crime, certainly sometimes they might sin, truly sometimes they fall further from grace and commit acts of crime (which can be washed clean through proper penance) and verily some fall completely from grace under the sway of the Devil.  It's why Major Traitor Greene and other Republicans proclaim the January 6th Insurrectionists are political prisoners; White Conservative Christians can not commit major crimes, they can only be lead astray by apostates (Ray Epps!) or false ideologies. 

Now the "Devil" in this telling is the false ideology of "Liberalism", the false teachings of Wokeism, the temptations of Loose Women and *Teh* Gay Sex.  Just reflect on what Republicans are constantly outlawing and constantly invoking; proper patriotic teaching, re-introducing the Bible into classrooms, outlawing Abortion to ensure fast women can't be so fast tied down with that baby.

Just recall what White Rightwingers are willing to ignore, if you hold the proper Shibboleths and what they can justify in their chosen Representatives.  No sin is too dastardly that you can not be washed clean by advancing the interests of conservatives and no conservative can be guilty of sin if he's advancing those interests.  

That's why Texas Governor Greg Abbott and Fvcker Carlson can declare convicted murderer Daniel Perry wholly innocent, Stand Your Ground, DGU, Self Defense and advocate for a Pardon for a man who detailed his plan to go out and commit a killing but, a justified killing of those who must not benefit from the protection of Law.  Read the disgusting comments on this Colon Noir NRA video which advocate executing the jurors and killing anyone who might not agree this was murder. 

The Language of White Supremacists has taken hold and is repeated by Faux News and all across comment sections of Youtube, Yahoo! News stories, Twitter and rightwing websites.  The understanding which has emerged under the MAGA- Great Replacement Theory Umbrella is: 

• There would be no crime if it wasn't for black people (addendum or "Mexicans" Build that Wall!)
• There would be no terrorists if it wasn't for Muslims.
• There would be no liberals if their teachers weren't indoctrinating them as children.
• There would be no mental illness if it wasn't for the sick-in-the-head LGBTQ community.  Consequently, all things associated with LGBTQ must be ruthlessly suppressed by the Federal, State and Local Government aided by rightwing Terrorist Groups like the Proud Boys in order to protect the children from falling into the Trans Delusion.

This is why after every mass shooting, white rightwingers immediately get into action on-line declaring the shooter a Liberal, or a registered Democrat, or a member of the LGBTQ community.  No True NRA member has every done a mass shooting.  No upstanding congregant of the White Christian Community ever committed a mass shooting.  And White people are considered upstanding unless they demonstrate any pathos.  You lose your whiteness if:

• If you use drugs like an N-word
• If you abandon Jesus 
• If you don't conform to the rigid Patriarchal gender roles
• If you don't support draconian immigration laws & enforcement 

Conservatives want a Civil War.  In white supremacist parlance this will be the RaHoWa.  Understand that conservatives are not restrained from starting this because of concerns with the fallout of any large scale terrorism campaign, it's that they understand the Deep State and Normie Society are not in their corner on open warfare.  But, if they keep using the Courts (at all levels), and keep enshrining bigotry and hatred into State Laws, and keep up the non-stop whispering campaign against Hunter Biden, and keep up the chaos and apocalyptic "breaking news", when they do launch their next Insurrection and Coup d'etat they hope that 99% society stands by while they neutralize the forces that would try and stop them.  Because once Republicans and Rightwingers declare they've won, and they've seized the levers of government...

Human Trafficking in Texas and Florida. Have you seen this Republican Ettin? (Updated)

The Republican Ettin*

Ron DeSantis and Greg Abbott are the highest profile kidnappers and human traffickers in America.  For weeks, I've been bombarded by YouTube's rightwing algorithm pestering me to choose where to send Biden's Migrant Buses next.  No matter how many times I click the don't show me this inappropriate ad again it comes back.

Greg Abattoir has been rounding-up human beings by gunpoint and sending them to various states in order to #OwntheLibs, this is a widely popular move amongst conservatives who love when people are mistreated and sent off to unknown places.  I mentioned back then that besides the horrific inhumanity of the actions it's also training for when Republicans decide to round-up other "illegals" and send them to concentration camps.  I have no doubt that conservatives would support the mass murder of millions of people in the name of Law&Order.

As I've mentioned before allowing Republicans to stake out claims to being the party of Christianity or Law&Order or "Pro-Life was a mistake and it's one of the biggest lies the Corporate Media continues to help Reactionary Republicans propagate.  Greg Abbott's lawless pro-gun, anti-infrastructure policies kills thousands of Texans every year.  Meanwhile, Ron DeathSentence killed at least 100,000 people in Florida by incessantly lying about Covid and Vaccines.  Since then he's engaged in #OwntheLibs executive actions and legislation which is inhumane and unchristian. 

And that's the point;  Republicans are not Christian in any way.  Neither are they for the Rule of Law.  Nor are the Pro-Life.  Republicans are vile, cruel, vindictive terrorists who have nothing to offer the American people but, bile and rancor.  The fascist conservatives on Twitter and their non-stop shit posting demonstrated how evil rightwingers have become and how much they yearn to kill Americans.

So, DeSantis lawless gotcha libs moment by abducting 50 human beings from Texas, through Florida, to Martha's Vineyard is more than just some stunt.  DeathSentence used taxpayer money, and I'm not certain any type of proper and legal investigation determined the immigration status of the people lured to the flight with lies but, the generous reaction of the people of Massachusetts really demonstrated how little regard Republicans have for actual human life.  Besides all the breast beating about abortion, the treatment of refugees and the constant repetition about "illegal" immigrants highlights the brutal inhumanity which lives deep in the dark psyche and twisted souls of Republicans.

Of course, the people who have been dealing with these political stunts have been treating the frightened, mistreated refugees in accordance with Jesus' teachings.  For whatever that's worth... Because it doesn't matter one whit to conservatives.  Conservative Jesus is a murdering bigot who tortures his enemies and teaches Americans hatred.

And as Republicans ratchet up their "political stunts" it's clear conservatives decided to totally scrap the Constitution and make up laws that suit the moment and justify their headlong rush into full-blown Fascism.  The Constitution of has No Authority any longer as - The Right's goal is to Rule America or Ruin it.  

Update:

Josh Marshall and the writers over at Talking Points Memo have uncovered and written about the nefarious lies used to entice the migrants and Reagan-esque bypassing of official government employees by using someone named "Perla" to get these people on board the flight.  DeSantis and The on-line FASH obviously thought this would be a giant cluster of affluent liberals calling the Police and demanding the "illegals" be removed.  Even now rightwing liars on Twitter claim the libs of Massachusetts forcibly deported these people whom DeSantis abducted.  The headlong flight into 100% propaganda and non-stop lies is complete, conservatives have no connection to reality.  Of course, in reality, that doesn't matter since the subjective rightwing universe is all that matters to them.

*- Though Republican ettins have a low intelligence, they are cunning fighters. They prefer to ambush their victims.  Republican ettin administrations are a haven for parasites and vermin, and it isn't unusual for the Republicans ettins themselves to be infected with various parasitic diseases. 

Ken Paxton, Greg Abbott and Texas Twerps declare War on the United States of America

El Paso is rooted like a thicket of salt cedar and cottonwood on the Rio Grande. El río cuts through mountains to make this place a natural passage. That’s what el paso means, the pass. For centuries many different peoples—like ourselves, right now, standing here—have passed through El Paso, going north, going south, going west, going east. On the other side is La Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua, México. Los mexicanos call this river “el Río Bravo,” and they know, like we know, that we are all brothers and sisters. We breathe the same air, we drink the same water. We are border people. Somos fronterizos. We are without end. - The River/El Rio: both Sides, No Sides by Bobby Byrd and Sasha Pimental

While I hope Beto O'Rourke can capitalize on this and eventually win the Governorship, Texas has been a shit State for a long time because Lone Star Assholes have this theory that since they were an Independent Nation (built on Slavery and the Myth of Remember the Alamo) they occupy a special niche that they can leave the Union whenever they wish.

But, like all Republican States nowadays they don't threaten to secede anymore but, intend to impose their "laws" upon other states, and the American people writ large.

Texans pride themselves on being a private land state, as over 95% of the land of Texas is held privately and over 83% of the property in Texas (142 million acres) is "Working Land" meaning it's farms, ranches, and forests.  But, almost every Republican bureaucrat who hails from Texas is All Hat and No Cattle as the saying goes... Such as little lord Briscoe Cain, who wears sweat free Stetsons and Wrangler work shirts inspired by David Byrne's oversized suit, who's taken to threatening Citigroup with criminal prosecution for "Abortion funds".

Greg Abbott and Ken Paxton hatched scheme after scheme to fuck things up in Texas and blame The Biden Administration.  Abbott's inspections were so farcical, on top of unlawful, the Texas Troopers under the Department of Public Safety weren't checking anything other than tire pressure because rules about search warrants and 4th Amendment protections still exist in Texas (for now).

So even though the American Trucker Association called for an immediate cessation to blocking imports of food shipments from Mexico and Texas companies told Governor Abbott to knock it off I have no doubt this plan will work.  Because Abbott and Paxton took a media blitz to Faux News to Let's Go Brandon and chortle at how brilliant their plans were and rightwing media loved every moment of the harm and farce.  

Paxton is still facing numerous criminal fraud charges having engaged in felony after felony for Trump with the expectation of receiving a Presidential Pardon from Trump after Paxton had other states electoral college votes voided.  Criminal Paxton filed a lawsuit to have Georgia, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania award Trump their electoral votes.

And if you've been paying attention, this is the current scheme Republican States have adopted to undemocratically enforce their will upon other States.  And thanks to Trump appointed Judges, especially but not only on the Supreme Court, Republicans have Judicial Supremacy enforcing the rightwing agenda on States they don't control.  Couple this with voting suppression and Republicans expect that taking back the House and Senate in 2022, will lead them to Republican State Legislatures declaring Trump the winner in 2024 no matter what, after they've successfully impeached President Biden.

This type of Bureaucratic Warfare from the GOP is expanding and accelerating.  The Banana Republican Party will keep pushing forward to take America backward because Republicans don't care about polls, or legality, but the exercise of raw power and the unequal enforcement of laws.  Fascism is already here and it's picking up adherents, lookie-loos, and late adopters.

Greg Abbott's Lone Star Fascism; Getten Zee on Der Autobus Mach Schnell!

"The migrants have to volunteer to get on a bus to Washington DC. Is that right?" War crimes cutie Dana Perino asked.

"Well let me explain how this whole process works..."  Texas Gruppenführer Greg Abbott

Getten Zee on Der Autobus Mach Schnell! 

Everyone knows how this process works...  everyone knows what this process is called...  

Smarmy Greg Abbott and the oleaginous Ted Cruz made the rightwing media rounds touting their plan to round-up and relocate "Immigrants".

This is how they always start.  Pick an out group, in this case one whom Republicans have ruthlessly and relentlessly dehumanized for nothing other than coming to the Nation looking for the American dream, as every shitty lily white conservatives' ancestor did at some point in the Nation's past, and expose them to inhumane treatment.

This is a trial run for Republicans coming plans to round-up more people and send them places.

Press Secretary Jen Psaki was asked about the Abbott stunt, because rightwing media does nothing but troll and try to generate soundbites and media quips to #OwntheLibs.  

"These are all migrants who have been processed by CBP and are free to travel, so it’s nice the state of Texas is helping them get to their final destination as they await the outcome of their immigration proceedings — and they’re all in immigration proceedings,” Psaki said about the first bus arriving on Wednesday.

But, Greg Abbott has to ramp up the inhumanity and hurt as many people as possible to brush up on his bonafides.  Abbott is probably going to run for President in 2024.  Which is why Abbott has tasked the Texas State Police with a farcical display of searching every truck coming in from Mexico loaded with produce after the trucks have gone through federal inspections.  Abbott defends this as a search for drugs or persons being trafficked but, in reality it harms people who purchase that produce and it's fuck with the truckers and their employers.  Also to #OwntheLibs somehow...

But, while Texas flirts with getting the forcible "relocation program" up and running the recent Senate confirmation hearing highlighted a reinvigorated avenue of Attack on Americans from Republicans:  Denying the accused Legal Counsel. 

This is, of course, not new.  Republicans have long asserted some people are not deserving of legal defenses.  Some people are presumed to be a priori guilty of crimes.  Certain races are natural criminals and poor whites are suspect too, until they show proper fealty to rightwing ideals and it's long been official GOP policy to demon liberals or those with left-leaning proclivities as soft on crime or criminals themselves (e.g. the latest grooming accusations).

Despicable scumbag Tom Cotton dared to invoke Supreme Court Justice Robert H. Jackson's name while slandering and smearing Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown-Jackson.  Cotton insultingly claimed Justice Ketanji Brown-Jackson defense of detainees at Guantanamo was akin to defending Nazis.

Cotton is ostensibly an educated man, we already know he's not an Officer nor a Gentleman, so let's point out that Justice Robert H. Jackson absolutely believed the Nazi War Criminals tried at Nuremberg deserved legal defense and was adamant that the presceding been done in accordance with the best practices of Law at the time and with an eye justice over vengeance; 

"That four great nations, flushed with victory and stung with injury stay the hand of vengeance and voluntarily submit their captive enemies to the judgment of the law is one of the most significant tributes that Power has ever paid to Reason."

The captured War Criminals from Nazi Germany were tried for their crimes, in direct opposition the detainees at Guantanamo captured during the phony GWoT spent more time in custody than Grand Admiral Karl Dönitz, the architect of German submarine warfare and last Head of State of Nazi Germany. A fact I pointed out when rabid conservative villains demonized Bowe Bergdahl and lied about the 5 detainees great President Obama traded for him.

I've said we've passed the Fascist Inflection Point on 01/06/21.  I've pointed out the violence the Republicans have already written into the system with guns, with running over protester "laws", with bounty's placed on anyone who comes with 15 feet of an abortion.  Republicans don't believe in the Rule of law except in the fascist sense;

For my friends everything, for my enemies the law...  Óscar R.Benavides, Peruvian Field Marshall who successfully conducted a Coup in 1914. 

While the Republican attacks on women are not coordinated on the Federal Level (yet) they are relentless from Republican controlled states, as well as, the vicious campaign to demonize and exert the awesome power of Government on individual Transpersons and Doctors and women's health workers and teachers and anyone who stands in the way of Republican creating a Neoconfederate Evangelical Nation.

Republicans are banking on winning the House and Senate in 2022, and then outright stealing the White House in 2024.  Then on January 20, 2025 with total control of all 3 branches of Federal Government the Republicans will institute the most oppressive and diabolical Government in the history of mankind.  Conservative beliefs taken to their logical conclusion inexorably lead to fascism. The greatest examples of Conservative Government are: The Confederacy of 1861, Apartheid South Africa, Chile post 1973, the Estate Novo in Portugal from 1933-1974 and of course the crown jewel of conservatism Nazi Germany.

The misery, open violence, bureaucratic strangulation the Republicans will visit upon all Non-#MAGA will ensure anyone who opposes them will meet with extrajudicial killing at the hands of Police or deportation to concentration camps in Washington DC.
