Trump's MAGA's Present a Clear and Present Danger to Our Constitution and Our Democratic Republic...

 


The following was written and published on RIGHT WING WATCH as a warning against installing the insurrectionist Representative Jim Jordan as the next speaker of the House of Representatives. On that the publication was and is spot on correct!

After reading the full article i realized that every single MAGA supporter in the Congress, to one degree or another, supports the man-child insurrectionist Donald J. Trump. Further, none of them have come out and emphatically rejected his false claims and multitude of lies and conspiracy pronouncements.

It is for the above reasons i took the liberty of slightly editing the following section to reflect what i view as the actual truth of Trump's right-wing fascist MAGA movement.

Anyone in a position of power who does not recognize the danger Trump represents to our republic (even when out of office) and is unwilling to denounce his behaviors and character does not deserve the office or power they hold. 


Eight Reasons No MAGA Representative Should Ever Hold Speaker of the House or Any Committee Chair

  • Many are insurrectionists. They are aggressive supporter of Donald Trump’s efforts to stay in power after losing the 2020 presidential election. Jordan traveled to Pennsylvania to promote the lies of the so-called “Stop the Steal” campaign. As Jill Lawrence wrote recently at The Bulwark, “The next speaker should not be someone we already know is willing to manufacture disputes and support groundless claims to overturn an election to install the president he wants.”
  • They are anti-freedom extremist. Jordan sponsored an extreme national abortion ban. The Human Rights Campaign has called him “a member of the anti-equality fringe” for his support for anti-LGBTQ legislation.
  • They are about ideological warfare, not governing. Former House Speaker John Boehner described Jordan as a “legislative terrorist,” explaining later about Jordan, “I just never saw a guy who spent more time tearing things apart—never building anything, never putting anything together.” Confirming Boehner’s description, Lawrence noted in her Bulwark article that in 2018, “Jordan and other MAGA Republicans convinced Trump to hold out for border wall funding in a budget dispute with Democrats,” leading to “a painful 35-day federal government shutdown.” Jordan leads a bogus House committee investigating the so-called “weaponization” of the federal government, which has been mostly a platform for the promotion of right-wing conspiracy theories.
  • They are the far right’s candidates. When a group affiliated with the Koch brothers launched a petition campaign to encourage Jordan to run for House Speaker in 2018, the signers were a Who’s Who of leaders from the Religious Right, legal and corporate right, and Tea Party. Jordan’s current bid for speaker has been endorsed by Christian nationalist Sean Feucht, who claimed that God has “anointed” his friend Jordan to hold the office. Campaigns to pressure GOP representatives who voted against Jordan are being waged by right-wing media figures like Sean Hannity and Todd Starnes and right-wing activists like  Gary Bauer and Gordan Klingenschmitt, who urged supporters to call House members, writing, “take a moment to save America.” The Trump-aligned religious-right activists at Intercessors for America also urged supporters to call or email House members on Jordan’s behalf.
  • They promote damaging right-wing conspiracy theories. Trump’s lies about the 2020 election are not the only conspiracy theories Jordan has helped promote. In 2013, Jordan endorsed a conspiracy theory that the U.S. government was buying bullets in an effort to limit their availability to gun owners.
  • They are untrustworthy. Multiple former Ohio State wrestlers have publicly charged that when he was an assistant coach, Jordan knew that a team doctor was sexually harassing and abusing student athletes, but refused to take action. One former wrestler said Jordan snickered when the student told him about a groping incident. Another athlete who has accused Jordan of lying about the situation has said Jordan doesn’t deserve to be speaker, adding, “He still has to answer for what happened to us.”

Our Biggest Creditor {China} Tells Us "The good old days of borrowing are over"

( Reuters ) - Global leaders on Saturday arranged a round of emergency calls to discuss the twin debt crises in Europe and the United States that are causing turmoil in financial markets . After a week that saw $2.5 trillion wiped off global stock markets, they are under pressure to show political leadership and reassure markets that Western governments have both the will and ability to reduce their huge and growing public debt loads. French President Nicolas Sarkozy, who chairs the G7/G20 group of leading economies, conferred with Britain's Prime Minister David Cameron ahead of a call planned for this weekend by G7 finance ministers and central bankers. "They discussed the euro area and the U.S. debt downgrade. Both agreed the importance of working together, monitoring the situation closely ...

Thoughts On the Civil War and What Precipitated It...

by: Les Carpenter Rational Nation U S A Purveyor of Truth Over at Contra O'Reilly Will Hart has been running a interesting series on the Civil War and what the primary causes were. Historians continue to disagree with the root, or primary causes. However it is generally accepted among knowledgeable and unbiased experts that slavery had very little to do with the onset of the War Between the States. Causes were primarily economic and constitutional. Will, in his posts has done a good job of pointing this out with supporting documentation. This site offers the following, a July 2013 article by David Hirsch in support of Will Hart's arguments. Arguments this site wholly concurs with. Arthur Hirsch's recent article about the Battle of Gettysburg reveals a disturbing ignorance of the political dynamics that brought this nation to a war that 150 years later remains the most cataclysmic event in our history ("A defining day relived," July 2). It accepts the sh...

When and How Will it End?

by: Les Carpenter Rational Nation USA Birthplace of Independent Conservatism This is America. We are an English speaking nation. We have distinct and traditional American cultural values. We have some Americans in our population who have difficulty speaking a coherent sentence. We have many who cannot construct a complete and proper sentence. Yet we find the time and the money to educate youth in Arabic and Arabic culture. Mind you this is a Federal Grant program and limited to only five select school districts. At least for now. At a cost of 1.3 millions dollars students on these select district will be required,  you heard {read} right, required as mandatory part of their curriculum to learn Arabic. This is a blatant abuse of taxpayer money, and it is indicative of the future course our nation has embarked upon under the fuzzy, misguided, and incredibly deceitful anti leade...
