If Voting ever changed anything, they'd make it Illegal... Enter the Three Trump appointed MAGA Fascists of the Odious 5th Circuit

3 Republican Judges of the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals have ruled it is illegal to count ballots in Mississippi because when people vote, Republicans lose.

With deplorable shit-eating grins these 3 MAGA Fascist Injustices declared,

Congress statutorily designated a singular ‘day for the election’ of members of Congress and the appointment of presidential electors.  Text, precedent, and historical practice confirm this ‘day for the election’ is the day by which ballots must be both cast by voters and received by state officials.

As Lawyers, Guns, and Money have so often stated about Republican Judges this is an argument from Seinfeld, that the Card Says Moops.  These type of Bureaucratic Coups using legalese and byzantine wording of laws receive scant news coverage other than the day the ruling is received but, are big source of successful efforts of Republican voter suppression and disenfranchisement.

Steve Vladeck believes this bullshit decision won't actually come into play this election cycle, but, is designed to give John Roberts and the insidious Six Supremacist Judges a chance to strike down key parts of the mail-in voting, which are used by 18 States and Washington D.C.

And in fact the MAGA Fascists Judges James Ho, Kyle Duncan and Andrew Oldham of the 5th Circuit do close their brief with the Wash their Hands Clean excuse, Today's decision says nothing about remedies.  We decline to grant plaintiffs' request for an immediate injunction...

And the three Judges then made a sop to the Sinister Six Injustices of the Surpemacist Court by referencing Boofer O'Kavanaugh's anti-democracy ruling,

As Justice Kavanaugh recently emphasized: “To state the obvious, a State cannot conduct an election without deadlines . . . A deadline is not un- constitutional merely because of voters’ own failures to take timely steps toensure their franchise.” Democratic Nat’l Comm. v. Wis. State Legislature, 141 S. Ct. 28, 33 (2020) 

As, the too cool for school Gen X saying goes, "If Voting ever changed anything, they'd make it Illegal..."  John Roberts, especially, has worked his entire career to making voting harder, less accessible, and more difficult because Republicans don't want you to vote and don't want you to have a voice in any portion of the United States Government.

Like all Republicans John Roberts, and his toady 5th Circuit believes the United States should be a Neo-Feudal White Supremacist Ehtno-State.  From now until Tuesday Nov 5th you still have a chance to vote and to have your vote count.  But, like cackling jackals and rapacious hyenas Project 2025 and MAGA are waiting for you to let your guard down so they can snatch your Franchise from you and create the Fascist Fundamentalist dystopia  of their dreams.

Traitor Trump's syphilitic brain is jello, he doesn't know who he's facing in the Election; but he guarantees his followers he'll Destroy America

Thank goodness Kamala Harris is going to be President because Traitor Trump is panicking and is willing to promise anything, say anything, and do anything to get people to vote for him.

Trump may not know who he’s running against but he promised to destroy the United States of America 

"Christians get out and vote. Just this time.  You won't have to do it anymore. Four more years. You know what? It'll be fixed. It'll be fine. You won't have to vote anymore my beautiful Christians. I love you Christians and I'm not a Christian. I love you, you got to get out and vote. In four years, you don't have to vote again. We'll have it fixed so good, you're not going to have to vote."

Trump's beautiful christians threw themselves at the feet of the Antichrist, turned their backs on Jesus and his message, and yearn to be granted the go ahead to engage in murderous bloodlust against all their enemies. 

"We'll have it fixed so good..."  Surely This Scandal will end his political career.  Look, you understand how this works.  Trump says something so extreme and if it gets pushback, his marketing team massages it into lies spread by the Fake News and if it gets traction he quintuples down on the message.  And anyone who dares to speak out against Criminal Donald Trump receives Death Threats and Harassment until they silence themselves.  With Trump's latest declaration of his Dictatorship, MAGA media will claim he meant after his election win you won't have to vote for him a 4th time. Of course, the Corporate Media will never call for Trump to withdraw based on his compete lack of coherence and Nazi style rhetoric.

Stop giving this fucking criminal rapist racist traitor the benefit of the doubt.  Trump means what he says, his jello-brain means he no longer has the filter which made him sound at least a little sane or sensible years ago.  Trump is fully into sundowning Alzheimer's now.  He says exactly what he means;  Traitor Trump is already on record claiming his first Term didn't count because the Democrats were mean to him.  And obviously even though he won the 2020 election (He Didn't) that doesn't count.  So this election is really his first.  Trump plans to be a Dictator who will never leave the White House.

And understand, the Heritage Foundation, and numerous other Reactionary rightwing groups, and elected Republicans at all levels of Government are working on curtailing voting for more than they already have.  So, yes Trump is saying you won't have to vote again because Republicans will make sure voting isn't something Democrats, liberals, or the other get to do anymore.  

But, as Trump's lack of a verbal filter, full-blown cognitive decline, repeated speaking glitches, and total lack mental competence are now readily apparent; the salient question is why is the Corporate Media silent?  Where are the dozens of daily stories and Op-Eds picking apart everything foible, misspeak, verbal gaffe for Traitor Trump?  Let alone, Trump openly saying he'll have it fixed so good you won't have to vote anymore as Trump will be the final President in American history.

The answers are easy;  Reactionary MAGA doesn't care.  Or more accurately, conservatives reveal in the power Trump grants them.  Trump promises them the power and freedom to be their most vile wretched selves and as we've seen in their racist misogynist response to soon-to-be President Kamala Harris they are wallowing in their wretchedness.

And the Corporate Media has always held Trump to no standards at all (Still waiting on the Epstein Documents to be discussed by the so-called Fourth Estate) so I don't expect the Media to call on Trump to drop out because he's thoroughly mentally incompetent.  But, as important the Plutocratic owners of the Media want Trump to be President because they know he will slash taxes, allow them to freely manipulate capital markets, speculate wildly, ignore Federal regulations, and aggregate more wealth in power in their hands.

So, don't expect the FTFNYT to run a story calling for Trump to withdraw or calling for "sane" Republicans to rescind his nomination.  The New York Times is fully in Trump's camp(s) and Republicans are wholly sworn to MAGA body and "soul".

Trump confused Nikki Haley with Vice President Kamala Harris.  Trump described the long sought Republican Party plan to raise retirement age so, Republicans and their Plutocratic Owners can steal social security from the American people, and claimed Vice President Kamala Harris supported it, instead of Nikki Haley.  Now, this could be garden variety lying but, the most likely, explanation is Trump can't tell one haughty Indian woman challenging him from another.  Hilariously Haley Voters for Harris, a super PAC which supported Haley over Traitor Trump in the Republican Primaries, told Nikki to eat it when she demanded they stop using her name.  Too bad Nikki, also a candidate coordinating with a PAC is illegal according to campaign finance rules so Nikki better stop telling the PAC what to do!

David Pakman came up with a good explanation why Jello-Brained Trump keeps invoking Hannibal Lecter.  Pakman theorizes Trump recalls the out-dated term "Insane Asylum" and then upon learning migrants are coming to the United States for "asylum" his jello-brain mashes the two things together.  Or it could just be racism.

Childish criminal Trump continues to mispronounce Vice President Kamala Harris' first name.  This is, of course, intentional. 

Despite, the outstanding success of the White Women:Answer the Call Zoom call I have almost no faith in white women voting for Vice President Kamala Harris, white women have had 2 previous elections to get it right and we've seen Trump for years now.  This isn't new.  If white women were going to reject Trump's vile bigotry, grotesque sexism, his disrespectful meanness, his hatred, his convictions for rape and theft they'd have done so by now.  His latest tirades of sexist bigotry and confused Fascist screeds aren't likely to sway them.

The choice is clear as it is frightening; a mentally deranged, authoritarian wannabe Hitler loving Donald Trump and his gang of murderous thugs or the genuine moral, decent, capable, strength of Kamala Harris and the executive branch She and President Biden assembled.

We aren't going back.  Kamala Harris is going to be President.  Let's Fucking Go!

Electing Republicans has Consequences

“When you vote, you are exercising political authority, you're using force. And force, my friends, is violence. The supreme authority from which all other authorities are derived.” ― Robert A. Heinlein, Starship Troopers

As we sit watching the Republican controlled US House of Representatives flail about over the Speaker of the House vote, it's important to note that the Republican Party has no intention of legislating when they finally figure out the perfunctory first steps of Congress.

Understand the goal of the Republican Party is to "drown the US government in a bathtub".  They don't want to reform the US government they want to replace it.

Towards that goal of destroying the functioning administrative state is making it look like Democracy and the functionality of the institutions have failed.  We see this as today we entertain the 13th vote for Speaker of the House, Kevin McCarthy having failed to garner sufficient support in the previous 12 and having received less votes than Hakeem Jeffries in 11 of the 12 votes.  But, by grinding the gears of the administrative state to a halt, as they are right now, Republicans and Rightwingers can point and shout See Government Doesn't Work!

For decades the pliant Coprorate media has been content to go along with the two pillars of the Rightwing  Narrative about Government; 1) the Government et al is broken and doesn't function and can't help you, thus lumping in the Democratic Party which is trying to keep government working with the Republican saboteurs actively undermining the government and 2) the Republican Party is being held hostage by the extreme fringe and a few wacko members.  

In reality this framing, has allowed Republicans to gain outsized political power by depressing the vote and turning Generation X into too cool to vote cynics and allowed Republicans to vote en masse to enact their extremist ideology while having a few of the more outwardly outlandish members act as lightning rods absorbing the blame.  The truth is every Republican is a full-blown MAGA Fascist, the few who weren't;  like Adam Kinzinger, Liz Cheney, Peter Meijer weren't liberal they just were steady Republicans voting the exact same way as every other Republican.

At the same time the Corporate Media was giving cover to the Republican Party by repeating the rightwing claims of BothSides are too blame and Dysfunction in Congress is the fault of All those Bozos when it's been clear since Ronnie Raygun, Cheatin' Newt Gingrich, the Stolen 2000 Presidential election, the Tea Baggers of 2010 and ultimate expression of Republican values Donald John Traitor Trump that Republicans are saboteurs purposefully undermining the United States in order that the government powers will fall into their hands.

And what does this current crop of MAGAT Republicans plan to do with Congressional Power?  Why #OwntheLibs of course.  By blowing up pictures of Hunter Biden's penis, helping Russia conquer Ukraine, arresting Dr. Fauci for Covid (which is simultaneously nothing more than a Cold while also being BioTerrorism from China), and blaming President Biden for Afghanistan.  Additionally, the Republicans are going to attack the following;

The FBI is infested with soft on crime swamp creatures who ignore BLM and arrest peaceful conservatives.  The FBI is insufficiently MAGA it needs to be replaced with a Trumpstapho or Trumpstazi.

The Biden IRS is hiring 87,000 agents to arrest small business owners for cheating on their taxes (which everyone does).  Of course, Traitor Tump requesting the IRS be used his political enemies is immaterial 

The Military is too woke and gay and couldn't beat Russia, even though Republicans wanted the Gay Woke US Military to aid Russia in conquering Ukraine.

There will be nothing substantially accomplished from the US House in 2023 or 2024 except for allowing the debt ceiling to collapse and then running with the Biden destroyed the economy at which point the Republicans will expect their co-conspirators in the compliant Corporate Media to run with the rightwing propaganda of blaming a Democratic President for financial destruction caused by Republican policies.

Because then the Republicans can steal the 2024 Presidential Election and get to work replacing the  Democratic Republic with their NeoConfederate Fascist Nation built upon oppression and intolerance and the subjugation of women, minorities, non-christians, and the rounding up and elimination of anyone who opposes MAGA Fascism.
