  1. The GOP attack on voters they don’t care for, in Georgia

    Pamela Reardon wants to stop Tamara Horne from voting.

    Reardon of Marietta, Georgia who is running for Vice-Chair of the state Republican Party, has filed a legal challenge to Horne’s vote — one of 32,379 voters in Cobb County Reardon has challenged under a little-noticed provision of Georgia’s new voting restriction law, SB202.

    Reardon, who admits she never met, called nor contacted Horne, accused the African-American of the felony crime of voting illegally because, Reardon says Horne, like the thousands of others Reardon has challenged, does not live in Cobb County.

  2. US democracy in peril as GOP plans to control the system.

    And so it barely made a ripple last week when a Texas congressman (and Donald Trump’s former White House physician) said aloud what’s supposed to be kept to a backroom whisper: Republicans intend to retake the US House of Representatives in 2022 through gerrymandering.

    “We have redistricting coming up and the Republicans control most of that process in most of the states around the country,” Representative Ronny Jackson told a conference of religious conservatives. “That alone should get us the majority back.”

    He’s right. Republicans won’t have to win more votes next year to claim the US House.

    Republicans can win the next elections through gerrymandering alone

  3. More on the “modern republicans suck” data: all 3 of the republican candidates for the office of attorney general here in michigan believe the law that legalized birth control for married couples should be repealed.

      Do they ever consider that they are acting like a US Taliban. Same as with all the other retrograde thinking like ‘intelligent design’? Of course they lack the knowledge and analytical thinking to appreciate all the markers that show why ID is total crap. How, I wonder do they rationalise the appearance of new strains of Covid?

  4. Of course their views on this aren’t based on reason, only a perverted mix of desire to hurt people and a loony appeal to ‘state’s rights’ and ‘morality’.
    It’s the same sort of bullshit that RickA spews on a regular basis, like a good little right wing american taliban member.

  5. How, I wonder do they rationalise the appearance of new strains of Covid?

    Now on that point I have found an interesting book that describes the manner in which new viruses have invaded the human population over millennia with ramifications for what was to come (i.e. Covid, the book being from 2011) and what is to come future unknowns when but not if.

    The Viral Storm by Nathan Wolfe

    I have studied a number of books lately mostly centred around Covid and related SARS and MERS, not forgetting the historical influenza outbreaks (back then there were the idiots who were more worried about the economic impacts of containment measures than the possible body count) but this one provides more context on the history and possibilities of pathogen development and spread. Probably be on Republican’s banned book list.
