    Organizing the civil service according political affiliation rather than experience and professionalism was the 19th century style. It's radically retrograde.

    When you say paleocon, I think of guys like Sam Francis and Pat Robertson. Who does Spurtacular harken back to?

    (The phrase "libertarian free-thinker"was less a reference to Derp in particular than the coterie of bad faith posters who back Republicans reflexively, but insist they are not partisan, but are instead independents, or classical liberals.)

    Historical background for the 2nd Reconstruction (i.e., the civil rights movement of the '50s and '60s) and the alt-right backlash to it that continues to this day.

    Trump is the president. He's removing people that are un-supportive of his efforts. That's how it goes, bruh.

    Sure, but that doesn't mean deprofessionalizing bureaucracy in favor of installing political flunkies is a good idea.

    I haven't lost any breaths over this. Senior bureaucrats are generally pretty spineless no matter who installs them.

    “Even though the Germans had been directly influenced by Madison Grant and the American eugenics movement, when we fought Germany, because Germany was racist, racism became unacceptable in America. Our enemy was racist; therefore we adopted antiracism as our creed.” Ever since, a strange kind of historical amnesia has obscured the American lineage of this white-nationalist ideology.
    Hitler was strongly influenced by Jim Crow and US "race science."

    Jews troubled Grant the most. “The man of the old stock,” he later wrote in The Passing of the Great Race, is being “driven off the streets of New York City by the swarms of Polish Jews.” But as the le of his 1916 work indicated, Grant’s fear of dispossession ran wide and deep:

    These immigrants adopt the language of the native American, they wear his clothes, they steal his name, and they are beginning to take his women, but they seldom adopt his religion or understand his ideals and while he is being elbowed out of his own home the American looks calmly abroad and urges on others the suicidal ethics which are exterminating his own race.

    This is their attempt to head off something even more unruly.

    State Repugs, echoing the fascist criminal in the WH, echo his fascism

    Voting Rights Roundup:

    Kentucky GOP moves to strip Democratic governor of his power after election





    Kentucky: Republicans in Kentucky's state Senate
    have passed a bill along party lines that would effectively remove Democratic Gov. Andy Beshear’s control over the state’s Department of Transportation, the latest move in an accelerating trend of Republicans stripping power from Democratic governors before they can take office.

    This bill would therefore hand over control of a key government post to moneyed corporate interests,

    Utah: Utah Republicans are planning to introduce legislation that would effectively gut the ballot initiative that voters passed in 2018 to create a bipartisan advisory commission that would draw maps based on nonpartisan criteria. The new bill as described by UtahPolicy.com would alter the voter-approved statute so substantially that it would guarantee Republicans can gerrymander again after the 2020 census.

    Indiana: Republicans in the state Senate and in a state House committee have passed a bill to revive a highly flawed method for purging voter registrations following two federal court rulings that blocked the system they had previously been using. The bill would create a state-run version of the Interstate Voter Registration Crosscheck

    The Repugs, working for the oligarchy, have had, and have strategy of turning the USA into a one-party fascist country, controlled by the oligarchy, even more so than now.

    Dangerous times, and America is ed and able, and the ing can't be stopped

    GOP contempt for democratic norms and electoral majorities is palpable. Add official corruption, loyalty purges, hardball power politics and paramilitary street fighters and what do you have?
