    Default Texas Republicans Ignore Constitution

    After what happened in Texas, and the lack of a response by SCOTUS to the unconstitutional actions of the Repugnant ones, the only conclusion that any sane person can come to is that there is an intent on the right to overthrow the legitimate government of the US by any means possible. This is occurring with the expressed agreement of their gawds, and masters:

    "That night, after I was finally able to turn off the news, the only two things I knew with absolute certainty were: one, that for the first time in our nation’s history there had not been a peaceful transfer of power, because my uncle, who could not accept his resounding defeat and the humiliation that came with it, had attempted to inspire a coup; and two, the next two weeks before Joe Biden’s inauguration would be the most dangerous this country had ever lived through.

    On November 7, after Joe Biden was declared the winner, Donald began peddling the Big Lie—massive voter fraud and cheating by Democrats had turned Donald’s landslide victory into a loss. The phrase “the Big Lie,” coined by Adolf Hitler, describes the technique of saying something so outrageously false that people will believe it simply because they think nobody would have the audacity to lie so brazenly. This has been a specialty of Donald’s since, as a teenager, he had to convince his father everything he did was always the biggest, the greatest, and the best. Back then, his lies protected him from his father’s wrath. The Big Lie about the election protected him from having to face the deep narcissistic wound he’d suffered after losing to Biden. In addition, it kept his base riled up—keeping them afraid of what a Biden administration planned to take away from them (or force upon them) and enraged by what he claimed had been stolen from them.

    In Donald’s January 6 video, the Second Big Lie was born. By telling them that they are loved and special, he transformed the violent anti-American mob into patriots who had merely been trying to save their country from the Democratic Party’s treasonous attempt to steal the election from him—and therefore from them. We’ve seen how this has become a strategy for almost every single Republican politician as well. Despite the testimony given by D.C. police officers Daniel Hodges and Michael Fanone, Capitol Police Officer Harry Dunn, and Capitol Police Sgt. Aquilino Gonell in front of the House select committee on July 27, which was impossible for any empathetic human being to watch without feeling a visceral rage and profound sadness, this will continue to be the Republican strategy. They know that if midterm voters still remember the truth about January 6, they’re in trouble. The insurrection of January 6 should have been a wake-up call. It looks, instead, to have been a dress rehearsal."

    No doubt. That law is unconstitutional. It will be cancelled. The audience test will go poorly. It will not be replicated.

    Actually the common decency of society in defense of Democracy and humanity should kick the un American GQP insurgency to the curb that is in the gutter with tRump and the media of lies at ignoring them and continue to engage in tactical counter motions against the enemy from within, etc.

    The tenth amendment makes it clear that abortion is entirely a state matter.

    Roe v Wade blew that idiocy all to hell. Then too, it matters not to the right wing what the Constitution says, or the law. Just as an example, when the cowards seek to end mask mandates it is the rant "My Body, My Choice". Not so for abortions.

    Shut up you stupid tranny. Roe was completely made up by the court. The 10th amendment says abortion is a state matter.

    the SCOTUS already denied a hearing..........so how will it be 'cancelled'??????
    A sad commentary on we, as a people, and our viewpoint of our freedom can be summed up like this. We have liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, yet those very people look at Constitutionalists as radical and extreme.................so those liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans must believe that the constitution is radical and extreme.

    You are describing Democrats. They HAVE overthrown the legitimate government of the US. They are currently turning it into an oligarchy so that Democrats can implement their fascism and communism. The Democrats do not recognize the Constitution of the United States nor any State constitution.

    The coup was successful...for now. Biden is not elected. He was installed.

    Texas Republicans Ignore Constitution

    Please show exactly where/what the Texas Republicans ignored in the Constitution ... If you can't then quit trying to make your opinions, feelings, and attitudes as statements of fact ... you should be old enough to know that.

    It is f**king idiots like you that gave us the antiConstitution court we now have. In following your irrational "logic" gun control is also a State matter. But your kind of trash keeps it in the Federal Court. Then too, an ignorant fool like you would never know that abortions have been legal in this country since its founding. But hey, don't let reality ever enter your feeble world.

    It is not constitutional to allow women to murder child after child because they are too lazy or stupid to practice true birth control

    Do you mean in addition to expanding the right to sue? If you were to take the word abortion out of the equation, and replace it with "guns" would you think it was Constitutional? Should I be able to sue you for planning on taking a woman to have an abortion, and if I win I get $10,000, and if I lose you still get the bill?

    Then why does that same "irrational logic" not apply to the wearing of a mask, or getting vaccinated? Or is it your "belief" that the rise in children dying from covid are not the result of your actions, and those like you?
