The Party is passing legislation to outlaw pro-choice speech. They are passing laws in Texas to make websites illegal. I've been assured, though, that it isn't fascism....

Party of christian/familyvalues. Party of law and order.

But they're not stupid. Oh, no....we can't say that!

Well, Musk made a great fuss about protecting free speech when he bought Twitter, so I'm confident he'll strongly object to the idea of the government suppressing pro-choice speech. No doubt he'll use his influence to put a stop to these sorts of laws.

Right?

of course not, he's more worried about the real censorship. did you know that in america every 40 seconds a trans forces a one person to lose their microsoft news comment account for harassment, and no one talks about it

Let me guess: You think it's Trump who is the threat to democracy.

I think most people would agree that someone who tried to bully and browbeat a governor into falsifying his state's election results, and then instructed a mob to march on the Capitol in an attempt to prevent the peaceful transition of power to his duly elected successor, was a threat to democracy. It's hard to imagine what more anyone could do to justify that description.

Mikel hopes that Biden can do Trump one better: "I keep hoping Joe's got one more trick up his sleeve still, but I really think we're stuck with Trump taking office ..."

From my Australian friend:
"Third world countries often have very little in the way of regulatory authorities.
They often have a lot of building collapses, fires, health problems and disastrous environmental issues..."

That is where we are headed. Musk will be in his plane headed to DC to slash nuclear waste programs. Meanwhile Ramaswamy has scrapped the FAA. The plane can't land. Musk has to go back to Texas and land at a ranch where a billionire has a private strip.
Click to expand...
The FAA has to do a lot more than just manage commercial flights. There are a mind boggling amount of private flights as well. IIRC the FAA funding is mostly subsidised by the taxpayers.
 
It's fine to do a stupid thing.
Question is: will you learn and correct, or double down?

Saying that voters are not stupid means you don't think they should or can do better.

Florida sued over attempts to shut down TV ad in favor of abortion rights

State sending cease-and-desists to news stations was ‘unconstitutional government interference’, coalition says
www.theguardian.com www.theguardian.com
The coalition behind a Florida ballot measure to enshrine abortion rights into the state constitution sued the state’s health department on Wednesday over its attempts to shut down an television advertisement supporting the measure.

The lawsuit is the latest volley in an escalating war between the coalition, Floridians Protecting Freedom, and Florida’s rightwing government, which has alarmed civil rights groups, fair elections organizations and even the Federal Communications Commission over its tactics to undermine the ballot initiative, which will appear before voters in November.


Earlier this month, the Florida health department sent cease-and-desist letters to local news stations over an ad featuring a woman, identified as Caroline from Tampa, Florida, who speaks about being diagnosed with brain cancer while pregnant.

Elon says

Matt Gaetz has 3 critical assets that are needed for the AG role: a big brain, a spine of steel and an axe to grind.

He is the Judge Dredd America needs to clean up a corrupt system and put powerful bad actors in prison.

Gaetz will be our Hammer of Justice.
Click to expand...

So not the courts or due process?

He goes on to say

As for these accusations against him, I consider them worth less than nothing. Under our laws, a man is considered innocent until proven guilty.

If AG Garland (an unprincipled douchebag) could have secured a conviction against Gaetz, he would have, but he knew he could not.

Case closed.

He doesn't even see the irony in this.

Gaetz is going to judge you all

It's going to be worse than you all think.

Hope, son. Hope. Note I also say I think we're stuck with Trump. Tell me, do you think Trump had any legitimate reasons for sending a mob to attack the Capital on 1-6-2021? If so, were you hoping, HOPING, they'd be successful?

Ehh. To put it nicely, in his first term, Trump selected a bunch of people who were explicitly set on destroying the agencies that they were assigned to head. That Trump would do so again is to be expected, not to be surprised about. Outrage, of course, is entirely reasonable. Both at him for his murderous and traitorous ways and at all those who put and kept him in power despite being well aware of his past sabotage of the US.
 
Actual ability means nothing, only loyalty to Trump matters.
This is going to end well.
Biggest case of voter regret in history on it's way.
 
Linda McMahon -- married to Vince McMahon of World Wrestling Entertainment fame (Linda was CEO of WWE for a time) -- is set to be possibly the last Education Secretary, trump having promised he'll abolish the agency.

Trump had vowed to "move education back to the states" during his campaign and doubled down on those comments since winning the presidency, saying the department's closure would come "very early" in his second administration. Newsweek article link

Someone from the professional wrestling world named Education Secretary? This nightmare never ends. It just keeps getting worse. :(

What the hell does Trump have against education? "I'm stupid so you have to be too"?

Like most of his opinions, he's basically copying what the base wants to hear. The DoE has been a gqp bugbear for years, they'd much rather get it out to the states where it's much easier for them to control what is taught, even during Democratic administrations.
