Bibles can now vote in Kentucky
The genesis of the Faith-Based Voting Rights Act
The statute is the brainchild of Governor Canard, a lifelong evangelical and Republican.
He states Jesus spoke to him through a piece of toast a few months ago.
After Jesus demanded every King James Bible vote in Kentucky,
the LORD supposedly told the Governor to eat the slightly burnt toast in remembrance of Him.
“I had my very own communion ceremony in the breakfast nook,” Governor Canard stated.
“I washed down Jesus’ flesh with a shot of tomato juice.”
The bill was written up and overwhelmingly passed in the legislature.
Many state representatives and senators admit they didn’t read what they voting on.
They confess as long as it’s faith-based and biblical it’s a no-brainer.

C-SPAN Just Called Kevin McCarthy’s Transparency Bluff
cspan wants more cameras in the House. let's see what less, gutless, spineless KM does
Accurate foreshadowing of inevitable Repug fascism
House GOP follows Monday’s
vote to protect the rich with
votes to protect the insurrectionists
they passed a rules package that guarantees more chaos and a government shutdown.
the motion to vacate the chair—it’s pretty much guaranteed that Kevin McCarthy’s hold on that gavel will be questioned.
also passed a series of budget rules that will guarantee a confrontation with the Democratic Senate and White House when it comes time to raise the debt ceiling and fund the government, guaranteeing a government shutdown.
that’s what they’re itching for—that fight.
And because they are so fiscally conservative, they also passed that
a bill to strip the IRS of the $70 billion it received last year in the big end-of-the-year funding package,
a move that would add $114 billion to the deficit over the next decade.

Symbolic Wyoming Proposal Urges Voluntary Phase-out of EV Purchases by 2035
Though the state of Wyoming is home to one of America's largest wind farms, "Wyoming's legislature is considering a resolution that calls for a phaseout of new electric vehicle sales by 2035," reports Engadget: In the proposed resolution, a group of lawmakers led by Senator Jim Anderson says Wyoming's "proud and valued" oil and gas industry has created "countless" jobs and contributed revenue to the state's coffers. They add that a lack of charging infrastructure within Wyoming would make the widespread use of EVs "impracticable" and that the state would need to build "massive amounts of new power generation" to "sustain the misadventure of electric vehicles." SJ4 calls for residents and businesses to limit the sale and purchase of EVs voluntarily, with the goal of phasing them out entirely by 2035.
If passed, the resolution would be entirely symbolic. In fact, it's more about sending a message to EV advocates than banning the vehicles altogether. To that point, the final section of SJ4 calls for Wyoming's Secretary of State to send President Biden and California Governor Gavin Newsom copies of the resolution. "One might even say tongue-in-cheek, but obviously it's a very serious issue that deserves some public discussion," Senator Boner, one of the bill's co-sponsors, told the Cowboy State Daily. "I'm interested in making sure that the solutions that some folks want to the so-called climate crisis are actually practical in real life. I just don't appreciate when other states try to force technology that isn't ready."

Justifying Attack on Social Security,
House Republican Claims People 'Want to Work Longer'
"Republicans want you to work until you die.
Republican Rep. Rick Allen of Georgia ( the Confedracy)
suggested last week that he would support
raising the Social Security retirement age—
a policy change that would slash benefits across the board—
because people have approached him and said
they "actually want to work longer." LIAR
https://www.commondreams.org/news/so...use-republican
People on AA don't WANT to work longer, they MUST work longer since SS is so ty. But of course, in your 60s and 70s, no jobs are available and/or at minimum wage
'Lying doesn't matter anymore':
Former Republican congressman on how politics changed in the Santos era
former Rep. Denver Riggleman (R-VA) attacked the contemporary Republican Party as being meaningless when it comes to the truth.
I don't know where you can work, draw a paycheck let alone be paid by taxpayers, other than the Republican Party in Congress. What does that say?"
"I think what you're seeing with Santos and it's other people, too,
if you look at Marjorie Taylor Greene,
the lies have been so normalized, the base doesn't care. nor does the Capitalist oligarchy
They just care about who is voting for what.
Lying doesn't matter anymore.
I've always said the two-party system wouldn't survive social media.
I thought the fringes would get their moment.
I don't know how we get out of this right now
because Santos is voting the way he wants certain people to vote.
He voted for McCarthy for Speaker.
His lies, his immoralities, his different names, all that stuff doesn't matter to these individuals,
because it's about the party over country, every single time."
