MTG, Gosar, Santos epitomize how degraded the Repugs have become
I don't expect the Repugs to ascend, only descend further, to pander to their fascist Capitalists BigDonor class and their anti-American base.
It’s MTG’s House
As recently as 2019, Republicans were able to draw lines. After Iowa’s
notorious Steve King
publicly embraced white supremacy, the GOP hesitated only momentarily before kicking him off committees and, ultimately, consigning him to political oblivion.
What a difference a few years makes. Via NBC:The folks at the Defend Democracy Project remind us who we’re talking about here:
The GOP Steering Committee, which doles out committee gavels and seats, voted to give
Greene and Gosar spots on the Oversight and Accountability Committee,
which plans to launch numerous investigations into President Joe Biden and his administration…
Greene also won a seat on the Homeland Security Committee, which Republicans will use to focus on border security and to investigate Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene Is A Far Right Conspiracy Theorist Who Was Part Of The January 6 Plot And Now Serves On The Homeland Security And Oversight Committees...
In addition to her other conspiracies, racist remarks, and wild accusations, Greene relentlessly spread lies about the 2020 election being “stolen” and was a key figure working in Congress to overturn the results in Donald Trump’s favor….
Rep. Paul Gosar Plotted With Trump To Overturn The 2020 Election. Rep. Paul Gosar was a ringleader in the plot to overturn the election far beyond his vote not to certify electors on January 6….-- Charlie Sykes substack
Gosar has a long history of collaborating with white nationalists and far right extremists, and
several of his own estranged siblings have referred to him as a “traitor to his country” and called for his removal from the House.
Sooner or later, such anti-democratic, FASCIST ilk will control all 3 branches.

Repugs, The Party of Anti-Semitism
'right-wing Republicans have their fingerprints all over the rise of antisemitism'
“Over three-quarters of Americans, 85 percent, believe at least one anti-Jewish trope, as opposed to 61 percent found in 2019.”
Rubin blames far-right MAGA Republicans and their “kooky conspiracy theories” for the increase in antisemitism in the U.S.
specific examples of “antisemitic tropes” that the ADL cited in its report, including the claims that
American Jews are “clannish” and are
“more loyal to Israel than the United States.”
“How many times have you heard Republicans, including House Speaker Kevin McCarthy,
prattle on about George Soros, a Jewish Hungarian immigrant,
as if he is the chief string-puller controlling the Democratic Party?
Trump, meanwhile, routinely demonizes Jewish Democrats for not supporting him and the Israeli government.”
the entire project of white Christian nationalism is to marginalize those who are not White and/or not Christian as something less than real Americans.
More than one-third of those who responded to the ADL survey said,
‘Jews do not share my values.’
the right wing considers Jews as much a threat to their vision of democracy as immigrants from Central America.
Hatred of ‘elites’ and su ion about urban dwellers often is a thinly disguised swipe at Jews.
‘New York values’ is often the buzz phrase.”
“That antisemitism has roared back with a vengeance is
thanks mainly to a party that embraces white Christian nationalism and kooky conspiracy theories,”

Repugs will continue to be antisemites, racist, transphobic, xenophobic, LGBT-phobic, non-Christian-phobic,
to pander to their hate-rotten voters

Missouri Republicans are upset with the will of their voters,
so they plan to change the rules
most recently by dragging their feet and then pushing back against Medicaid expansion.
Republican elected officials saw the future of what a strong ballot initiative could do to so many of their proposals and they didn’t like it.
Most of these proposals, like Medicaid expansion and marijuana legalization, are bipartisan in nature and the campaigns welcome members of both parties.
in a deep dive, the Kansas City Star found that
Missouri Republicans voiced serious concerns about how easy it is to influence Missouri voters to pass ballot initiatives and undo Republicans’ work.
This is significantly different from the influence that, say, groups like the
American Legislative Exchange Council,
Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC),
anti-abortion organizations,
the NRA, and
numerous other conservative lobbying organizations
have at the state level.All those groups corrupt legislature with $Ms
One way to kill new proposals is to change the votes needed to succeed.
In Missouri,the measure to use is to change the fact you need a majority of all registered voters whether they vote or not.
This proposed change would make it nearly impossible to pass any voter-supported initiative,
as numerous voters never vote in any election despite being registered.
By moving the goalposts in this way, Republicans believe that they have a chance to end voter participation in their government.
