Trump in a Total incoherent meltdown. Will the Corporate Media continue to prop up the raving racist pudding-brained Trump?

Will the Corporate Media aid Dementia DonOld Trump, Creepy Stalker Vance, and the Treasonous Republican Party in stealing Kamala Harris Presidential victory?

I'm not Mad! I'm not Mad! I'm not Mad!

Soon-to-be President Kamala Harris is pulling away in every poll and in every campaign rally.  Her crowds blow away the psychotic MAGA super fans who follow Trump around.  But, because his stamina is completely shot, Trump hasn't done any campaigning in a week.

Instead today Traitor Trump, his brain completely consumed with spirochetes, spiraling out of control in a racist fury, gave an inane rambling, fact-free rant so incoherent, so rife with projection of his own foibles, and replete with lies and vicious slanders and falsehoods it's a wonder why the interview didn't lead to an immediate call for Trump to step aside and be confined for a mental health evaluation.

So, the continued complicit silence from mainstream media is now growing louder than anything in America, other than the pulsating energy coming from the next President and Vice President of the United States Kamala Harris and Tim Walz.

DonOld... You Mad!

For just one example, DonOld continued to claim everyone wanted Roe v. Wade overturned (of course not true) and also Democrats kill babies after they are born (horrendous lie).  And yet, what was the Media choose to focus upon was their umbrage that those mean-old Democrats would claim J.D. Vance fucks couches.  Now, as it turns out that J.D. Vance unquestionably fucked a couch or two.  And with the help of the Mainstream Media, is looking to fuck over every woman and little girl in America.  Is any primetime journalist going to tell Trump flatly that he is lying and not only that, but, that his despicable lies about post-birth abortions are heinous lies? 

Well, now just a scant few days later Vance, with the aid of Swiftboat Veteran Chris LaCivita, has besmirched Governor Tim Walz with a despicable Stolen Valor accusation.  And the Corporate Media dutifully reported Vance's and LaCivita's lies.  Don't hold your breath expecting them to chastise the chaise lounger rapist Vance anytime soon.  Fortunately, unlike in 2004 when John Kerry was so taken aback he viewed his best course of action to not acknowledge the "Purple Heart Band-aid" insults which unfortunately led to Dirty Republican Fuckers to set the narrative which the Corporate Media dutifully followed, an army of on-line Harris/Walz backers can fight the slander and smear job and not let the Mainstream Media catapult Republican propaganda.

In a horrible, yet totally predictable pattern, just like as we saw with pudding brain Trump's racist slur on Kamala Harris ancestry, the Corporate Media framed the swift boat attack on Tim Walz as Governor Walz's problem.  For decades now, the Corporate Media has taken great pains to ensure the stories they print in their so-called liberal news are slanted to reflect the views and opinions of Republicans.

How many times did the FTFNYT run out to do a 'Cletus Safari' to learn what Trump voters think.  How many times did the Sunday morning shows declare that when Republicans are in power over the government Republicans should be interviewed because they are in power and when Democrats are in power, Republicans should be interviewed for balance and their take.

A mere 3 weeks ago, the entire Mainstream Media was consumed with an elderly man and his run for the office of President.  That man, Joe Biden, gallantly stepped aside, voluntarily ceding power for the good of the Nation.  An act so outside the keen of Republicans, they've concocted some fantasy scenario wherein President Joe Biden rescinds his decision during the August DNC in Chicago and is once again the Presumptive nominee.  They think this because none of them would ever consider doing what is right for America and they so badly want the Democrats to fall apart so syphilitic Trump can arrest his precipitous descent into total madness.

Seriously, when was the last time any journalist told DonOld Trump, 'What the fuck are you talking about with Hannibal Lecter, you absolute lunatic?'  or 'Why would you claim your crowd size was bigger then MLK Jr?'  Instead, the Corporate Media contorts themselves to properly parse what Trump means when he says other countries are emptying their insane asylums because he doesn't understand what request asylum means.  Stop fucking doing that.  Trump is insane and a fucking fascist.  Stop giving him the benefit of the doubt, stop taking him seriously but, not literally, stop pacifying a full-blown fascist who is entering a sundowning haze of rage and dementia.

Gross? Weird? Creepy? Yes times 3. 

Now, I understand rightwing commentators who have staked their entire brand on being a Reactionary gadfly, the Tim Pool, Ben SShapiro, Matt Walsh, or whomever.  Their business model is based upon selling the GOP shit to MAGA and keeping Republican voters in a constant state of Fear & Anger. 

As to Republican voters they've fallen deep into the Sunk Cost Fallacy hole and can not get free as long as DonOld Traitor Trump is running for office.  They've ignored his vicious racism, weird syphilitic diatribes, despicable insults, declarations of dictatorship, and overall insanity for this long so they are going to stick with him.  Nothing he says will dissuade them from choosing Fascism.

The only pertinent question going forward is by how much will President Kamala Harris and Vice President Tim Walz win the electoral college and popular vote, and how will the Treasonous Republican Party attempt to steal the 2024 election?  As Heather 'digby' Parton says, Georgia Trumpublicans seem to be set upon not certifying President Harris victory and Rachel Maddow warned Trump and his Project 2025 co-conspirators seem confident they won't need to win the election in order to install DonOld Traitor Trump back into the White House.

Our fight is far from over, Kamala Harris is going to be the next President unless Trump can move enough people into committing another Insurrection and Coup d'etat.

White Conservative Domestic Terrorists strike again, 3 dead and 19 wounded, Worse Than Benghazi.

The first thing to recognize about the Domestic Terrorist attack in Charlottesville, Virginia, is a brave young woman lost her life fighting Nazis on American soil.  And two LEOs died as a result of the actions of a cadre of conservative traitors and nazis; The TeaKKKi Party.

Next, demand a congressional inquiry into the events leading up to and during the gathering of violent anti-american white supremacists.  Why was a permit granted to them initially when the list of attendees included all manner of right-wing domestic terrorist groups before it was rescinded?  Why did the Police not monitor the broadcast on-line for additional right-wing fascists to descend?  Why were neighboring police departments not tasked with providing QREF in case of trouble?  Why was the State Police not notified and placed on high alert and checking for outside agitators coming in?

Now, it has been pointed out repeatedly on various social media platforms the Police response to rallies involving Africian-Americans or #blacklivesmatter are always greeted with overwhelming force and military grade equipment, while the police in several instances during the White Riot apparently did not intervene, even as women were beaten by conservative criminals.  I was not on the ground and do not know the micro-tactical situation but, the questions are why did the Police either show up without a proper response plan in place or without the proper assets?

White Conservative Domestic Terrorists have conducted numerous attacks on U.S. soil and have been emboldened by the tacit and overt support from Republicans in Congress, Statehouses, Faux News, and now the White House.  Conservatives have increasingly been radicalized into a Reactionary Paramilitary force with the approval of high-ranking Republicans and conservatives in the media.
What this amounts to is no less than a Coup d'etat and an attempt to turn the United States into a Right-Wing Fascist Plutocracy.

Never Forget using vehicles as weapons in the United States have been a tradition of right-wing domestic terrorists and far from being inspired by Islamic extremeists this latest attack was inspired by other Conservatives and Republican Lawmakers.

As protests against police brutuality escalated over the repeated unconstitutional execution of black men by Police Officers, Republican "Lawmakers "in various states attempted to pass legislation making it legal to run over people in the roadway.  Pause and reflect on that.  In multiple states, Republicans attempted to make it legal to run over and murder someone with your car for the act of getting in your way.

Conservative asshole and Law School professor Glenn Reynolds wrote last year, "Run them Down".  Reynolds one of the first big right-wing blogger types has always advocated for the murdering of Americans whose political affiliation he dislikes.

Conservative Domestic Terrorists are waiting, aching, yearning for Traitor Trump to give them the go ahead to begin slaughtering Americans.  Conservatives believe they have a Casus Belli (a cause or event to justify war) whenever, they sputter their "Whataboutisms" containing the names President Obama, Hillary Clinton, or George Soros.

Conservatives long ago declared war on America.  They hoped with the election of more and more Reactionary Republicans; from the Arch-Criminal Dick Nixon, to the alzheimer addled Ronnie Raygun, to W(orst POTUS Ever), to the ultimate distallation of conservative thought and emotion, the Alt-Reich Traitor Trump himself, would allow them to perversely install the unholy evil conservative agenda of intolerance, oppression, and worship of the rich into "Law".  But, Conservatives have been stymied by the #Resistance and a strong united Democratic Party.

Of course, it should be noted the goals of rank-and-file conseravtives are different than the Republican Party, which serves as the Guard Dogs of the Plutocracy but, the Republicans often throw more than enough red meat to their conservative drones to keep them satiated.  However, as it becomes more and more likely the conservative dream of a White Power Government will be thwarted conservative domestic terrorists will turn more and more to violent methods and means.

The NRA has already volunteered several times to be the Vanguard of an overthrow of the Untied States and the rounding up and murdering of liberals, feminists, minorities, immigrants and everyone else Traitor Trump and his 63 million Nazi followers deem enemies.

Exterminate the Brutes has been the unofficial motto of the GOP for decades now and multiple generations of conservatives have been raised on fascism but, conservatives haven't been this openly fascist since World War II.  However, conservatives know they have a staunch ally in the White House and his Executive staff is replete with fellow fascist travellers and white supremacists.  Traitor Trump can no more denounce the TeaKKKi Party than he can denounce himself; They are Him.

Right-Wing treason and conservative domestic terrorism is now the number one threat to the United States of America.

Traitor Trump, Respublikanets, and conservative criminals

It's incontrovertible the Respublikanets Party, numerous members of Traitor Trump's campaign, Trump's son, Vice-Traitor Mike Pence, and the Arch-Traitor Donald Trump himself allied with the FSB, additional agents of the Russian Spy Network, the Russian Government, and Vladimir Putin to illegally steal the 2016 Presidential election thus committing high crimes and misdemeanors.

The Respublikanet Party allied with Russia in service to their Plutocratic Overlords. As such they were willing to violate laws, undercut the election process, undermine U.S. Intelligence agencies, and betray the American people, because they knew Donald Trump as President would fast track their agenda of intolerance, oppression and adulation of rich.  Republicans hate the United States of America. Republicans believed they have a chance to eliminate the social safety net, end the American Dream and shackle the American people under crushing burden of corporate bondage.

As the evidence of Trump's Treason against the United States of America mounts conservatives have turned to a well-worn tactic first advanced by creationists.  To attack the fact of evolution, duplicitous conservative creationists demand that every facet of evolution needs to be explained or it's not true.  Russia and the Republicans colluded in treason to steal the election but, conservatives claim unless you can show every in and out, every shred of evidence, then it's not true.

Additionally, Republican criminals have changed their ardent denials from there was never any collusion, to the collusion occurred but's it's a "Nothingburger".  Now conservatives proclaim the collusion which they say never occurred is the fault of Barack Obama.

The Traitor Trump family, the Russian-aligned Republicans and their conservative criminals will never admit to their monstrous crimes and treason.  As the evidence mounts and the downfall of Arch-Traitor Trump grows more and more likely the Republican villains are going to issue louder and louder calls for political violence to their conservative domestic terrorist cells who are just aching to be unleashed to murder their enemies, the American People, in an orgy of violence instead of the slow death inflicted by Republican laws.

Erick Erickson calls for dissolution of U.S. Conservatives declare war on the U.S.

"Russia, if you’re listening, I hope you’re able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing. I think you will probably be rewarded mightily..." - Donal Trump July 2016, offers quid pro quo, to Putin and the Russian Government, get me elected and I'll give you what you want.

Conservatives serve a KGB Colonel.  Erickson and American conservatives sold out the country for power.  The Republican Party is a subsidiary of the Russian Government.  Thus, it was no surprise Donald Trump dominated the Republicans as Trump is owned by Russian pimps and gangsters.

Conservatives have wrought so much damage upon the U.S.  Southern Conservatives broke up the country in 1861, European Conservatives declared war on the US in 1941.  For decades modern conservatives have been waiting, aching, hoping, praying, and working towards a Casus Belli in order to murder liberals, minorities, immigrants, feminists, and everyone who has the temerity to expect equal rights and a piece of the American Dream.

Thus, in 2016 modern conservatives, from across the Nation, came together to usher in the total destruction of the U.S.  So, less than a half year into his monstrosity of a Presidency, Putin's puppet and his conservative KGB drones, are doing the dirty work and destroying the United States of America.

Ewick, the Commie Red, son of Ewick,

I am no longer an optimist about the future of this country. This past week has shown there is no incentive for the better angels of ourselves to rise. Both sides are out for blood. The only way to calm the situation is for us to part ways. Frankly, and historically, the only thing at this point that is going to save us from ourselves is either breaking apart our union or a major war not of our choosing that forces us to unite. I suspect the latter is coming...

As soon as conservatives do not get their way, they seek to destroy.  Erickson's piece is a collection of right-wing lies and tropes about how oppressed conservatives are and includes the declaration liberals are the "American ISIS".  I refuse to entertain Erickson's disingenuous article which plays the Both Sides Do It but, liberals are worse... while equating liberals with ISIS.  Additionally, Ewick dabbled for years in eliminationist rhetoric, indulged in violent fantasies, aided and advanced every pernicious and scurrilous lie during the Obama Presidency has the audacity to whine about civility.  But, being a conservative Erickson can't quietly lament, instead he pins for bloodshed and Civil War.

Conservatives are destroying the Nation and have declared the Second Civil War is underway.  Who does this aid? Vladimir Putin.  Putin's poodle in the White House is overseeing the dissolution of the United States and conservatives are working to replace America's position in the world with Putin's Russia.

Update:
Toma over at what...Trump (formerly sickhorses) has a detailed graphically depiction of Erick Erickson preferred ideology.

Donald Trump invited members of a Foreign Military to attack Americans on U.S. Soil

The Presidency of Donald Trump has shown the Republican Party will stoop to any level and engage in any activity in order to advance their agenda of hatred, oppression, and worship of the rich.

The Republican Party is a subsidary of the Russian Government. Trump is owned by Russian Pimps and Mobsters. Conservatives serve a KGB Colonel.

The daily number of egregious crimes and treasonous activities is too much to catalog. But, occasionally an activity of outrageousness rises to the level of outright enemy action against the American People.

The dictator of Turkey, invited to the White House by Donald Trump, unleashed his military attachment to attack American citizens on U.S. Soil.* The D.C. Police broke up the attack but, only after 9 people were beaten and injuried.

Where is Faux News? Where is Alex Jones? Where are the Oathbreakers? Where are the III Inchers? Why aren't conservative clamouring for justice and defending the American people? The answer is because all those conservative groups which arose under President Obama where shams. All conservative rhetoric about defending the Nation and the rights of Americans is all so much chafee. Light lies told by liars whose real intention was the acquistion of power to oppress their fellow Americans and NOT defend them.

Worst of all where is the Republican Party? Why are the elected Republicans not defending Americans? The problem is the Republican Party is wedded to Trump and his Treason they will do nothing to stop him even as he willfully and wantonly gives away classified information from inside the White House Oval Office itself. And the reason is the Republicans believe they can still use Trump as President to advance their agenda of destroying the socialsafety net, eliminating constraints on rapacious Corporations, slash taxes to nil on the 1%, and reduce the American People to the status of Wage Slaves in perpetual Corporate Bondage. It appears we can have a Republican Party or a Republic.

Recall how conservatives beat their breasts and rend their hair when Obama took his suit jacket off in the White House? Recall how they screamed tyranny when a Marines held an umbrella for the President?

Yet, with Trump's treason, conservatives anger is directed entirely at liberals and HRC. In fact, conservatives are openly fantasizing all over the incestuous right-wing internet about using any incident they can as a pretext to begin murdering liberals. The blood lust has been swelling inside conservatives for years.

There appears no easy way out of this. The Trumpanzees will never abandon their Hair Furor, and as more evidence emerges they will cling tighter and tighter. And the tighter conservatives cling the more cowardly the Republican Party becomes.

Thus far, nothing Trump has done has been irrevocable. His signing statements are ridiculous and non-binding. His pathetic displays of military force have been all for show with no results and no follow-up. His various diplomatic faux pas have not permanently damaged American credibility. But, Trump is a Russian Asset, as his light treason gives way to more and more direct action for his owner, Vladimir Putin, against the U.S. Government, his behavior and decisions are going to get Americans killed here and abroad.

*- He is at this time transporting large Armies of foreign Mercenaries to compleat the works of death, desolation, and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of Cruelty & Perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the Head of a civilized nation.

Heil Trump! MAGAmericans will be the new people and under MAGA Conservaive Neo-Nazis shall rule

"Hail Trump! Hail Our People! Hail Victory!" Conservative Neo-Nazi Dick B. Spencer declares The Drumpf Reich

In 40 days the Republican Party will begin dismantling the social safety net, eliminating Government, and instituting MAGA across the land. MAGA will replace all other forms of patriotism, governance, and free speech in the country. So what do I mean by MAGA?

No longer will Americans be paid in near worthless federal reserve notes (End The FED!!!), instead MAGA Bux will be available to use in Donald Trump's Food Banks (no Trump Steaks for certain people), or Mike Pence's cultural approved centers (No Hamilton!), or to trade in for vouchers for Paul Ryan's CouponCare or the newly created MAGAcare!

MAGAcare will "quickly" and "efficiently" replace the ACA and the failed policy known as Obamacare. Under MAGAcare, poor Americans will have the option to die quickly but, with out the onerus burden of receiving care under the evil tyranny of Obamacare.

Political Correctness (PC) will be eliminated and will be replaced by Patriotic Correctness (PC). Under the New PC, MAGA Speech will be the only speech code approved by Trump and his inner cabal of Conservative Neo-Nazis and accepted by MAGAmericans. Forms of unacceptable speech shall include criticizing Donald Trump, protesting Republicans, rejecting military control of the Government, watching TV other than Faux News or The Apprentice, reading internet sites unapproved by Breitbart, burning Confederate Flags, and refusing to salute during the new National MAGAnthem, these will be punished by MAGAexecutions.

MAGA Lives Matter will quite naturally replace All Lives Matter as MAGAmericans recognize that only their lives matter. Especially since Director of Homeland Security Sheriff David Clarke will have declared Black Lives Matter are terrorists thus allowing the MAGAparamilitary to unleash peace keeping operations on #blm and all those associated with it. MAGAexecutions will swiftly follow as anyone who supports or identifies with #blm will be automatically be a threat and the MAGA Homeland Security agents will always be in fear for their lives.

The EPA will transition into the MAGAPA, a new federal regulatory body which will ruthlessly track down and eliminate the #NODAPL criminal protesters (more MAGAexecutions), and fast track the pipeline, safeguard the inalienable rights of pollution factories to dump petcoke along the Calumet waterway, mercury (HG) into the Great Lakes, rain down lead dust on nearby towns, and spill any other toxic waste into the air and waterways on their property, which are sometimes erroneously referred to as the commons or America.

The Departments of Education shall henceforth be the Department of MAGAducation and the Department Labor will become the MAGAwork. MAGAducation will focus on the conservative truths about America; how there was no one here in the New World when The White Man arrived and even if there were they weren't strip-mining and deforesting the land so they weren't really using the place. And the new MAGAwork will ensure that all Americans are given the freedom to work for as little as possible, eventually transitioning to free labor in order to achieve 100% employment. MAGAwork will set US free.

The 2nd Amendment shall henceforth be known as MAGAmendment and be the first and last argument, especially when some libtard starts speaking that Old PC garbage and tramples on MAGA speech.

In all seriousness, liberals need to start formulating a plan of action and need to hold the Democratic Party to it. That plan should include all manner of parliamentarian rigamarole, political brinksmanship, and outright chicanery.

Because playing by the norms and rules of the system is a receipe for the furtherance of right-wing fascism. RepublicaNazis began their descent into fascism with Nixon's southern strategy, fully embraced it with the addled Raygun's faux cowboy diplomacy, ignored decorum with the hunting of President Clinton, stole the Presidency in 2000, obstructed and derailed the Government through President Obama's tenure, and are now set to inaugurate the worst Government the world has seen since 1932. All of these have been frowned upon by Democrats as they expected Republicans to uphold some traditions and were reluctant to confront the conservative neo-nazi advance.

As Robert F. Kennedy observed in 1962, "We all agreed in the end that if the Russians were ready to go to nuclear war over Cuba, they were ready to go to nuclear war, and that was that. So we might as well have the showdown then as six months later."

The time for Gentlemanly governance is past. RepublicaNazis have completely abandoned even the semblance of cooperation they will stop at nothing to advance the right-wing dream of Neo-Feudal Wage Slave Nation. The Era of Conservative Neo-Nazi Fascist MAGA is upon us.

From Black to White, the changing face of Drug Addiction and Punishment

Now, that white opioid users have surplanted black people as the face of Addiction, America has begun to experience a change of heart when it comes to Draconian Drug Laws and Sentences.

Before moving on to the body of this post let me note, I am all in favor of decriminalization of a minor drug like cannabis and a pivot on harder drugs towards medical treatment as opposed to punishment. But, it's incontravertable that society's pivot towards treating Opiate Use as a medical illiness instead of as a criminal act is because the weight of the Criminal Laws are now wrecking white people's lives and not just those in black or brown communities.

All of sudden, white people have begun to experience the horrors the 50 years of Republican War on Drugs has wreaked upon minorities. Harsh Punishment used to be reserved for those people. Now, whites get to see their children's futures ruined over minor non-violent drug possession charges.

As an aside, this is why I don't believe in heightening the contradictions, i.e. allowing Donald Trump to assume the Presidency in order to bring about the perfect left candidate. White Working Class People, the base of the Republican Party, were abso-fucking-lutely fine with harsh laws as long as the long-haired hippies were getting the truncheons and blacks were being incarcerated/ruined for drugs.

Now, that those same rules are applied to them? Well, it's time to re-evaluate the War on Drugs!!!

For the last 5 decades, the Republicon Party at the behest of their Plutocratic Owners, have been dismantling the Progressive Gains of the 20th century, the so-called American Dream. At first they started with black and brown Americans because they knew Whites were enjoying the benefits of Liberal Democratic Society and wouldn't say much.

Unlike, the contention the Democratic Party abandoned the white working class 50 years ago, the Democratic Party decided to make good (as best they could) to the promises made to African-Americans and other marginalized segments of society.

Whites who had nearly been the sole benefactors of New Deal Government Programs became irritated, especially as the Republican Party made sure that any gains for minorities would be taken directly from the pockets of the working class, that other people were being aided by those programs.

Nixon, a master politician, understood this back in 1968 and took advantage to win the Presidency,

“The Nixon campaign in 1968, and the Nixon White House after that, had two enemies: the antiwar left and black people. You understand what I’m saying? We knew we couldn’t make it illegal to be either against the war or black, but by getting the public to associate the hippies with marijuana and blacks with heroin, and then criminalizing both heavily, we could disrupt those communities. We could arrest their leaders, raid their homes, break up their meetings, and vilify them night after night on the evening news. Did we know we were lying about the drugs? Of course we did.”

Ronald Reagan identified the Government, the one now helping poor blacks, as the problem. Of course, while he demonized welfare queens and steak-eatin' young bucks he was busily dismantling the manufacturing base of America. For blacks in the 1980's the loss of economic opportunity in large cities, was thus replaced with Gangs and Drug-based Capitalism.

The continued Republicon assault on the American Worker and Industry and the transition to a finance-based Capitalism as opposed to manufacturing of the 20th century has reached working class whites.

George W(orst POTUS Ever) Bush attempted to delay the full impact of Republicon Capitalism on American Society by trying to swindle Social Security and dumping a massive influx of capital into the hands of the Vultures on Wall Street, but was defeated. If he had been successful perhaps the Republican Recession of 2007 would have been averted for another decade or perhaps just a few years.

In either case, Bush/Cheney would have been a safe enough distance to proclaim it wasn't demonstrably their fault.

Thus, whites who had already seen their good-paying Union jobs and benefits disappear thanks to right-wing Vulture Capitalism saw their home equity and meager retirement savings vanish into Mitt Romney's Cayman Island Bank Accounts and into 50,000 millionaires secret UBS Swiss Bank Accounts.

So, while we've also witnessed the greatest decline in standard of living and life expectancy for working class white people we've seen those same white people turn to the only thriving industry left in America, Drug Dealing.

Rape-publicans, Bathrooms, and Bigotry

Ever since their defeat in the 2003 Lawerance v. Texas decision, which removed the ability of the right-wing religious bigots from breaking into peoples homes to tormet, beat, and arrest people for consensual relationships in the privacy of their own home, right-wing bigots have been searching for an avenue of attack.

The conservative movement believes it has hit upon an unbeatable legal strategy with their current crop of Bathroom crotch sniffing and Christian Bigotry Bills. By couching their bigotry in phrase sincere religious beliefs and euphemistically used title Privacy ,conservatives believe their Pro-Discrimination anti-transgender Bills would easily be signed into Law in states run by Republican Legislatures and Governors and survive challenges in the Right-Wing dominated SCOTUS.

Of course, while conservatives dominate gerrymandered and voter-suppressed States they don't control social media or society at large any longer and the backlash against Conservative Bigotry has been swift.

There are no credible reports of a Transgender person accosting someone in a bathroom. The laws in Tennessee, Mississippi, and North Carolina do not reference incidents or police reports because they do not exist. In fact, it's much more likely, a Republican Congressman like Dennis Hastert or Mark Foley or a Conservative blowhard like Rush Limbaugh or Ted Nugent, will rape your child than a transperson.

But, look at the way conservatives frame their talking points, for instance Curt Schilling Facebook post which cost him his job at ESPN. It's Rape and/or fear of Rape.

While an element of gay panic and hatred of the other comprise a significant part of these laws, there is the deep dark desire of Rape underlining these Republican laws.

Conservatives and Republicans are seemingly always a hair's-breadth away from forcing themselves onto young girls. It's why Republican officials are always talking about Rape because Rape is always on their mind. Republicans can't stop talking about how they want to break into bathrooms and rape young women.

Rape-Rape-Rape. It's the first thought of Rape-publicans when they wake up in the morning and their last thought at night. Rape-Rape-Rape. Thus, because projection is their strongest belief, Republicans believe that must be the case with the LGBTQ community.

The New Centurions (1970) by Joseph Wambaugh pretty much encapsulates the conservative view on LGBTQ persons. Wambaugh's books exude a reactionary ethos, especially, when he writes about liberals and race relations but, when he writes about the LGBTQ community, which he does extensively in all his books, it's with fascinated revulsion bordering on the homicidal.

"Did you guys hear how many marines Hollywood vice busted last weekend?" asked Simeone...
"What's happening in Hollywood?" asked Gant
"What always happens?" Said Simeone. "The joint is lousy with faggots. I hear they got twenty marines in fruit pinches last weekend. They're going to notify the general at Camp Pendleton."
"That pisses me off," said Gant. "I was in the corps but things were different in those days. Even marines are different now." (Ibid. 177-178)

Wambaugh devotes an entire chapter of his belief that gay and lesbian people are akin to hardened criminals,

"You know The Cave?" Gant asked Roy.
"The fruit joint on Main?"
"Yeah, but it's not just fruits. There's lesbians, sadists, masochists, hypes, whores flim flammers, paddy hustlers, hugger muggers, ex-cons of all descriptions, and anybody else with a kink of some kind or other." (Ibid. 174)

And

"It's a beautiful place," said Roy.
"The park? Oh, yeah. But it's full of faggots and thieves and assholes in general. No decent people dare hang around here after dark." said Ranatti. (Ibid. 189)

Towards the end of the chapter the Vice squad and uniformed backup raid The Cave. Wambaugh's phrasing is perhaps revealing, "he watched the blue wedge of bodies insert itself into the opening of the Cave." And "the cathartic blue wedge of policemen withdrew from the mouth of The Cave". Emphasis mine. Perhaps Wambaugh is being cute and having a chuckle at his clever phrasing or perhaps...

The only character in The New Centurions who shows a scintilla of humanity or respect for Civil Rights is "Roy Fehler",

Roy was not completely certain that he would like to receive an eighteen-month assignment to vice because he respected the privacy of others. He believed that this undercover surveillance smacked of fascism and he believed that people, damn it, were trustworthy and there were very few bad ones despite what cynical policemen said.

But, Roy the Liberal gets told off by Wambaugh in blackface and gets shot on two occassions, the last fatally to close the book.

But, foruntaely times have changed so much so that in the Cop Series Southland (2009-2013), which used portions of Wambaugh's books as source material, one of the main characters "John Cooper" is homosexual. The series does treat the character's sexual orientation as an intergral issue often leading to tension between partners and civilians on the street.

While, I could go further into Wambaugh and Reactionary Police Officers, that's a subset of this issue, and the Officers of Wambaugh's day are 2 or 3 generations removed from working the job.

What we are looking at with the Sincere Religious Belief Laws and Patriotic Bathroom Privacy Acts are hopefully the last gaps of the bigoted hateful right-wing. But, I don't believe so.

One would think small-government loving conservatives would be wary about ensconcing such far-reaching invasive laws into the hands of Government Officials, one would think that Libertarians, those haters of Government intrusiveness and the State, would be taking to the ramparts to decry such an expansion of the corrosive powers of the State, but libertarians have this odd way of justifying the use of force by the government against those they don't deem worthy of legal protection.

What these laws are designed to do is to feed the hatred which consumes the Right-Wing and to put fear into the LGBTQ community. To let them know that anyday, someone can complain about them and they are only free at the whim of the bigoted conservative/libertarian/right-wing community.

Biological Determinism and Conservative Bigotry

If the misery of our poor be caused not by the laws of nature, but by our institutions, great is our sin. - Charles Darwin, Voyage of the Beagle

There are certain racist ideas which bubble up from time to time as a new generation of right-wing bigots come to the forefront. I received this comment from a self-described conservative:

Glen Filthie said...

The average black IQ is 85. Mohammed Ali had an IQ of 79 which psychologists consider to be mild mental retardation.

As a conservative and a race-realist...I know there are exceptions to the rule - but they ARE the exception.

For the record I wish that you were right and I was wrong, but the facts are what they are.

MARCH 5, 2016 AT 7:56 AM 

This "argument" is based on what can be called Biological Determinism, an odious theory used by those entrenched in positions of power or authority to support the established order and to buttress the injustices done to those deemed "inferior". The latest most famous repackaging of this ancient ignorance came from Faux News and right-wing idol Charles Murray in The Bell Curve (1994). But, it can also be found in the movie Idiocracy (2005), and the warped applications of Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr. SCOTUS Buck v. Bell (1927), the infamous "Three generations of imbeciles are enough."

Now, modern day conservatives who become incensed at charges of racism, respond with the scientific "facts" of Murray's bullshit in The Bell Curve. Even as a politically conflicted youth I knew the idea that intelligence was an innate unchangeable feature, allowing for the rare intelligent members (as Glen Filthie wrote "there are exception to the rule"), was at best wrong and at worst a disingenious attempt to justify evil institutional racism.

Thus, I found Stephen Jay Gould's 1996 reissue of The Mismeasure of Man (originally published 1981). Gould's book contained the refutation of Murray and Herrnstein's racist BS as well as an accurate hypothesis for why the Biological Determinist theory was back to the forefront in the mid-1990's.

As Gould wrote,

The remarkable impact of The Bell Curve must therefore, and once again always, be recording a swing of the political pendulum to a sad position that requires a rationale for affirming social inequalities as dictates of biology. (Pg. 31) All quoted passages are from the 1996 edition.

And

Should anyone be surprised that publication of The Bell Curve coincided exactly with the election of Newt Gingrich's Congress, and with the new age of social meanness unprecedented in the my lifetime? Slash every program of social services for people in fenuine need; terminate support for the arts (but don't cut a dime, heaven forfend, for the military); balance the budget and provide tax relief for the wealthy.

Of course, since the Republican Contract on America, we have witnessed even worse attacks on the Social Safety Net including the rise of the LET THEM DIE Tea Party, Paul90X Ryan's Path to Penury, and W(orst POTUS Ever) attempts at stealing Social Security.

But, with the social media/internet age, the election of President Barack Obama, and the campaign of carnival barker Donald Trump the relentless right-wing march back to out loud bigotry and rampant racism that Nixon and Lee Atwater advised the Republican Party to abandon with the Southern Strategy in order to win elections has emerged stronger than ever.

This culmination of this re-embrace of racism has been evident with the right-wingers reaction to every killing of unarmed African-Americans (unqualified support) and the invocation of Chicago gang/gun crime.

For instance compare the comments of Darren Wilson after he killed Michael Brown in Ferguson Missouri (2014),

Wilson told the story of three minutes of hot confusion, shattered glass, a misfired gun, fear and a look of anger that came across Brown’s face that Wilson said made him "When I grabbed him, the only way I can describe it is I felt like a five-year-old holding onto Hulk Hogan... He looked up at me and had the most intense aggressive face. The only way I can describe it, it looks like a demon, that’s how angry he looked. He comes back towards me again with his hands up. He was almost bulking up to run through the shots, like it was making him mad that I’m shooting him,"

And this account as quoted by Joseph-Arthur, comte de Gobineau,

On the supposed stocism of blacks in the face of pain, for example, Gobineau cites the testimony of a doctor: "They bear surgical operations much better than white people, and what would be the cause of insupportable pain to a white man, a negro would almost disregard. I have amputated the legs of many negroes, who have held the upper part of the limb themselves." Any white man would be praised for bravery, courage, and nobility, but Gobineau attributes this supposed toleration of pain by blacks to "a moral cowardice which readily seeks refuge in death, or a sort of monstrous impassivity." (ibid Pg. 383)

This epidemic of sustained violence directed at poor, powerless people is coupled with the constant right-wing refrain about their laziness,

We have got this tailspin of culture, in our inner cities in particular, of men not working and just generations of men not even thinking about working or learning to value the culture of work, so there is a real culture problem here that has to be dealt with," - Zombie-eyed Granny killing Republican and Conservative darling Paul Ryan 2014

And the numerous times elected Republicans at every level of government constantly equate poor and black people with wild animals.

This theory of Biological Determinism often forms the core of modern right-wing racism. Conservatives have a whole litany of so-called scientific evidence which they claim supports their bigtory. While right-wing think tanks, like The Hertiage Foundation produce pieces claiming the Poor have it very well, and throughly debunked pseudo-science like The Bell Curve are held aloft as on par with the Bible and Atlas Shrugged.

Unlike Benghazi, we can never know the motives of the Planned Parenthood Gunman nonetheless, Republicans support the Terrorist Attack (Updated)

Oh wait yes we can!

Robert Lewis Dear made a partial statement when taken into custody last night proclaiming "no more baby parts" as his hostage taking, act of terror, stand-off was finally ended. 3 brave people died another 9 were wounded.

What motivated Dear to leave his North Carolina home and drive all the way to Colorado Springs to attempt a mass murder terrorist attack?

Wouldn't it be just if the deaths of 3 brave Americans at Colorado Springs received the same level of scrutiny and 13 Congressional Investigations as the deaths of 4 brave Americans at Benghazi?

But, then who are the Republican Congress going to investigate and indict? Themselves? Because Jason Chaffetz and the Republicans who feverntly lied and dutifully tried to manufacture controversy over bogus videos are culpable and complicit in this incident. Would Jason Chaffetz also have to admit that his feeble lies motivated Dear?

Would Adam Kinzinger and the Republican Congress have to admit so-called "barbaric videos" can in fact motivate a true believer to commit a terrorist attack, after they spent the last 3 years telling Americans that videos could never do that? Would the Republicans have to issue arrest warrants for David Daleiden, one of their Heroic anti-abortion Propagandists? Because as tbogg notes,

David Dalieden didn’t pull the trigger — he just showed Robert Lewis Dear where he needed to aim the gun.

Additionally, the absolute silence from the Republican Candidates for President is deafening and eye-opening. The Republicans absolutely agree with the attack on the Planned Parenthood but can't figure out a way to thread the needle of supporting the attack which took the lives of 3 brave Americans, including a Police Officer, whom Republicans always claim to support and love but, are willing to sacrifice to advance their evil agenda.

Nonetheless, Robert Lewis Dear is now enshrined in the Pantheon of Conservative Second Amendment Heroes. Dear did what so many conservatives fantasize about but lack the intestinal fortitude to undertake.

The thing is conservatives are cowards and Republicans are liars. They lack the courage of their convictions. If they truly believed that Planned Parenthood is murdering millions of babies as they so often shout then why aren't they storming the facilities? Why aren't they attacking PP facilities like the ISIS fighters they truly wish they had the balls to be?

It is because they don't believe their own rhetoric. Despite the rending of their garments and the gnashing of their teeth and the beating of their breasts. What Republicans see in Planned Parenthood is an unending source of political propaganda, which they tap into time and time again for votes, to advance their true agenda of Intolerance and Oppression.

Now, as in the case of Robert Lewis Dear, a conservative domestic terrorist swallows enough of the right-wing Republican rhetoric and believes enough of the deceptive bogus video evidence from David Daleiden and goes off on a killing spree. But, there's enough Republicans willing to obfuscate, lie and distort (as Adam Kinzinger of Illinois did when he was quick to note, while the attack and hostage situation was unfolding, Dear "had taken a legitimate disagreement with the practice") to muddy the waters, until the public tires of the situation and returns to their daily routine and forgets the Republicans in Congress are responsible for this incident.

While conservatives proclaim amongst themselves, 'This had nothing to do with Planned Parenthood it was a bank robbery gone wrong, move along,' and go back to their routine of "catapulting the propaganda" until another so-called lone wolf in the right-wing pack of domestic terrorists, easily gets guns and murders more liberals, women, minorities, and anyone else so they can Make America Great Again.

Update:
The Republican candidates finally got around to responding, and we've learned the two other victims identities; a Iraq War Veteran and a 36 year old Mother of Two. But, don't worry because the victims identities will not dissuade the Conservative Domestic Terrorists.

Today's Republican Party are collateral damage in the War on Liberals

While I don't necessarily believe Donald Trump and Ben Carson are the Vanguard of New Republican Party, since not a single vote in the Primaries has even been cast, it is nonetheless easy to see what their appeal is and why they seem to be ascendant.

After the 60's, the Republicans made a deal with the John Bircher Reactionary Right-Wingers, tapping into their boundless butt-hurt energy, religious bigotry, and simmering racial resentment, in order to win elections. And it worked, Republicans got Nixon, Reagan, and W elected twice, those 3 Villians alone did massive damage to the Nation as was intended. But, they also succeeded in taking Congress several times, enacting the 1994 Contract on America for instance, and numerous other state and local offices.

But, along the way the conservatives began to inflitrate all levels of the Republican Party and displace the so-called "RINOs", until the GOP effectively became their party.

The establishment Republican candidates for President in 2016, are confused and annoyed. Back in 1900, William Denali McKinnley "campaigned" for President by sitting on his Ohio Porch waiting to be awarded the Presidency by the Party Leaders. Today's Republicans are expecting the same sort of coronation. They don't understand what's happened to their Party.

Of course, what's happened is for the last 35 years Republicans have been promising to destroy Liberalism, bring about the New Dawn, recreate the Never Was Shining-Utopia-on-a-Hill, and haven't delievered. Conservatives have been greedily eating a steady diet of right-wing shit and plutocratic pablum and are sitting around, usually working hard at two or three jobs, wondering why they aren't millionaires? So, conservatives have decided to Take their Country Back and Make America Great Again.

Having sucked in the Propaganda for decades, conservatives fully believe the US to be a Center-Right Nation and that Conservatism can never fail, it can only be failed. They're sick and tired of half-measures and "liberals" like George W(orst Potus Ever) Bush, Eric Cantor, and the new Speaker of the House Paul Ryan.

They need someone in Government who is going to undo all the "Tyranny" President Obama enacted during his "lawless" 8 years. They need someone who is going to undo all the free give aways that Obama gave to the "blaaaaaa-ck people". They need someone who's going to be "tough" with Iran, show Putin who's the boss, enshrine Christianity as the National Religion, eliminate the EPA (for some reason), kick out the Mexicans, torture the Muslims, while putting women, blacks, and liberals back in their place.

They yearn for someone with Undiluted Conservative Evil, a Pure Blooded Right-Winger, who will tap the pleasure centers of their petty, mean, bigoted, hateful, and vicious brains.

You're either with them... Or against them.

Paul Ryan doesn't want to be Speaker of the House because it'll cut into his Gym Time

P90X Ryan is known in Washington D.C. for to things; his fanatical weight lifting sessions and wanting to steal Social Security and Medicare in order to kill Old Americans.

With John Boenher's crisis of faith and decision to step aside as Speaker of the House, the Republican  Congress has imploded. No one in the House has the 100% undiluted, Conservative blood of pure evil necessary to satisfy the Right-Wing fanatics who have gerrymandered their way into the People's House.

Ryan's Reverse-Robin Hood Budget shenanigans are legendary and lauded by Republicans in their ceaseless effort to swindle the Middle Class and transfer more wealth up to the 1%. Yet, Paul Ryan is too liberal for the Tea Bagging euphemistically titled Freedom Caucus. Even Phyliss Schflay emerged from her crypt to decry Ryan's possible Speakership.

The only one who approaches the necessary 100% purity of bile and rancor required to be the Perfect Conservative is Dick Cheney, who pure evil was only slightly diluted by the introduction of a stolen transplant heart.

So, the Republicans are going to flail away for awhile and the Beltway Press and Media will continue to ask inane questions like; How did this happen? and Aren't the Democrats to blame because, ya know, Both Sides Do It? as they pin away from the Ghost of Undead Zombie Reagan to emerge from the recesses of their imaginations and Lead.
