What a fool.

 

Kelli Ward is in full meltdown mode over Rep. Rusty Bowers

excerpt:

"Just one day after House Speaker Rusty Bowers regaled the nation with the shameful scheme to overturn democracy in Arizona, Republican Party payback has begun.

State GOP Chairwoman Kelli Ward has come positively unglued over Bowers’ testimony before the House Select committee investigating the Jan. 6 insurrection, wherein he reminded us that there still are Republicans who haven’t lost their ever living minds.

Or their integrity.

In the last 24 hours, Ward has demeaned Bowers, belittled him and even embraced her inner fifth grade bully and given him a nickname: “Rusty Bowels.”

And, oh yeah, she endorsed his opponent in Aug. 2 Republican primary for the state Senate.

Parties usually don't take sides in a primary

Let me say that again. The head of the Arizona Republican Party has taken sides in an Arizona Republican primary."

 

Ward was narrowly reelected to her post of chairperson of the AZ GOP. She refused to allow an audit.

Roe v Wade: Trump praises US Supreme Court decision to overturn constitutional right to abortion | Daily Mail Online

excerpt:

"Also in May, the former president was asked by the New York Times' Michael Bender about his silence on Alito's opinion with regard to the fact that Trump stacked the court in favor of conservatives.

He said: 'I never like to take credit for anything.' "

 

Posture of the court that Trump shaped with his three appointments.

excerpt:

"In his separate opinion, Thomas acknowledged that Friday’s decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization does not directly affect any rights besides abortion. But he argued that the constitution’s Due Process Clause does not secure a right to an abortion or any other substantive rights, and he urged the court to apply that reasoning to other landmark cases.

Thomas wrote, “In future cases, we should reconsider all of this Court’s substantive due process precedents, including Griswold, Lawrence, and Obergefell.”

Since Justice Samuel Alito’s draft majority opinion overturning Roe was leaked earlier this year, Democrats and liberal activists have warned that the conservative majority would soon turn its attention to other rights that the court has affirmed."

Perhaps next time, Trump will tell them to stand back and stand by.


‘I felt very unsafe’: Proud Boys show up at children’s library event

excerpt:

"She was particularly excited about this one, but her excitement quickly turned into panic.

“I get it’s a public space, so if people are holding signs outside and they are being peaceful, even if I don’t agree with the things that they are saying, I don’t feel necessarily like my life is in danger. But when a group of known violent people, you know, at that point when those people show up and they’re coming into the library and trying to disrupt the storytime, that’s when I felt unsafe,” Jones said. “And they’re doing that on purpose for sure to intimidate people.”

When Jones arrived for the storytime, she said she only saw a handful of peaceful protestors outside, but not any Proud Boys.

“They were dressed, what I would describe as like, normally,” Jones said. “I didn’t feel threatened by their attire. They were holding signs that said things like, ‘the library is responsible for child abuse,’ and ‘keep pornography out of our libraries.’”

About 45 minutes later, things changed.

“And then I heard some commotion outside. I remember seeing one guy’s face on the glass, and he was glaring at us, and trying to antagonize us. And a group of probably I would say, like maybe six or so others, they kind of paraded down the hall, like they were very clearly trying to antagonize us,” Jones said.

The New Hanover County Sheriff’s Office had deputies at the event to prevent the Proud Boys from entering the room.

Angie Kahney was in the hallway outside of the event room when the Proud Boys walked in. She says the group was loud and disruptive, but in a statement, the sheriff’s office says there was no disturbance.

“They were like yelling obscenities about how their tax money was being spent on pornography and drag queens,” Kahney said. “There was shouting. It was loud. Like their attempt was to intimidate and create a disruption and that’s exactly what they did.”

Jones says the group “definitely disturbed us.”"

 

'F***ed Up Nancy Office': Oath Keepers Member Allegedly Tapped by Stewart Rhodes as 'Operations Leader' for Jan. 6 Has Been Indicted

excerpt:

"Prosecutors say that 39-year-old Michael Greene of Indianapolis played a key role in the attack on the U.S. Capitol, in an indictment charging him with five crimes. Unlike Rhodes, Greene has not been charged with seditious conspiracy.

Long shielded in court documents as “Person 10,” Greene — who also goes by the names Michael Simmons, “Mike Whip” and “Whiplash” — was first unmasked by Mother Jones in July 2021. Greene, who is Black, told reporters that Rhodes expelled racists from the Oath Keepers.

“The reputation of militias is a bunch of racist White guys,” he told the Washington Post. “Some of them are, but not all of them.”

The U.S. Attorneys Office for the District of D.C. charged him with conspiring to obstruct an official proceeding, obstructing an official proceeding, conspiring to prevent an officer from discharging any duties, entering and remaining in a restricted building or grounds, and tampering with documents or proceedings.

“Greene, Rhodes and others made plans to bring weapons to the area to support the operation,” the unsealed indictment states. “They then traveled across the country to the Washington, D.C., metropolitan area in early January 2021.”"

excerpt:

"The abortion decision was 6-3 and the guns decision was 6-3, with the three justices appointed by Trump casting the decisive votes.

Both gun control and abortion are issues that are likely to reshape and inject vigor into the 2022 midterm elections and the 2024 presidential race — and give Trump signature victories to reanimate his supporters, while driving out his biggest foes in droves. So far, the 2022 cycle is expected to be a good one for Republicans, analysts in both parties say, but the election has been largely about issues other than guns and abortion. Trump has shown little interest in either."

 

https://www.washingtonpost.com/poli...ses-roes-repeal-privately-frets-about-impact/

excerpt:

"Trump once was a Manhattan billionaire who was stridently in favor of abortion rights, but he vowed during the 2016 campaign that he would appoint conservative judges who would overturn Roe. On guns, he has told his supporters that he is the bulwark keeping Democrats from taking their Second Amendment rights away — but privately, he has questioned why people need such powerful guns and why people enjoy hunting, according to people who worked for him in the White House.

“These were not things that were ever firmly in his wheelhouse, and I think Trump in his pre-presidential days was pro-gun safety and pro-choice,” said Tim O’Brien, a longtime Trump biographer. “But it made sense for the coalition he was trying to build in right-wing politics that he changed. You have all these court rulings that are engraving it into stone, and he doesn’t really seem to care. It wasn’t ever a place he resided authentically and intellectually.”"

 

It's questionable if there has ever been a place where Trump has resided authentically and intellectually.

 

The usual from Susan Collins.

She's flabbergast that Gorsuch and Kavanaugh misled her on the abortion issue.


Collins, who voted for Kavanaugh and Gorsuch, suggests justices lied

excerpt:

"Back in 2018, during the Kavanaugh's confirmation hearings, Collins said she believed the justice would not touch abortion. "I do not believe that Brett Kavanaugh will overturn Roe v. Wade," she told CNN. "He said it should be extremely rare that it be overturned.

Friday, however, proved Collins dead wrong on this point, with Kavanaugh joining the court's conservative wing in reversing the landmark decision."

 

Josh Hawley says abortion ruling will push people to move states, strengthening the GOP

excerpt:

"“I would predict that the effect is going to be that more and more red states are going to become more red, purple states are going to become red and the blue states are going to get a lot bluer,” Hawley said. “And I would look for Republicans as a result of this to extend their strength in the Electoral College. And that’s very good news.”

He said the political realignment would mean that social conservatives would no longer have to work with fiscal conservatives in politics, resulting in a more populist, conservative Republican Party — which is also the lane of the Republican Party he currently occupies."

 

Wait, a missouri hillbilly said that, dream on.

Opinion | ‘I Happen to Be in Love.’ The Affair of Donald Trump and Rudy Giuliani.

excerpt:

"Mr. Trump rarely gushes about anyone besides himself, but there is something about Rudy Giuliani that has always made him swoon. “Some people don’t like him and some people love him totally,” Mr. Trump said of Mr. Giuliani on “Larry King Live” on Oct. 7, 1999. “I happen to be in love.” As president, Mr. Trump often spoke about him with a deference that virtually no other aide received. Mr. Giuliani as mayor was a role model for Mr. Trump; his raw exercise of power, his use of bombast as a weapon and his relentless attacks on his critics and the media all made a huge impression. His style influenced Mr. Trump’s approach to the presidency “more so probably than any other political figure,” Mr. Miller, the Trump adviser, told me over the course of reporting for a new biography of Mr. Giuliani.

The two men go back decades. As mayor, Mr. Giuliani looked favorably upon Mr. Trump’s development projects. He spoke at the funerals of both of Mr. Trump’s parents. Mr. Trump, in turn, wasn’t just “in love” with the New York mayor — Mr. Giuliani was perhaps the most famous national political leader with whom Mr. Trump had longstanding ties as he explored a presidential bid in 2000 and beyond. Mr. Trump saw how Mr. Giuliani became a hero after Sept. 11 and how he became a punchline after losing the run for the White House in 2008. Mr. Trump went to some lengths to help Mr. Giuliani in that low period. Indeed, the hallmarks of what would become one of the most toxic partnerships in recent presidential history came into stark relief during the months after Mr. Giuliani’s lifelong hopes of becoming president ended in humiliation."
