WOW. The GOP nominee for governor of Wisconsin makes it 100% clear: “Republicans will never lose another election in Wisconsin after I’m elected governor."https://t.co/5PZn6iMRQx Told you. *This* is what many of these GOP candidates are *actually* running on: https://t.co/L5wmG6yJOx — Greg Sargent (@ThePlumLineGS) November 1, 2022

The AGs argue schools have the right to deny queer and trans kids lunch money. https://t.co/xM3IGonUIB — Gillian Branstetter (@GBBranstetter) July 27, 2022

But realize that most if not all of the crises happening in the world today are the outcome of the same problem: the violent response of a white patriarchal order which sees its power waning.

But their drive to end environmental regulation goes much further than climate change. A case being decided right now in the Supreme Court, West Virginia vs EPA, is likely to destroy the ability of the US government to regulate the environment, particularly in any way that might slow the fossil fuel industry in its march to destroy the planet. This is one of several Supreme Court cases that will be presented to us this week and next, and this … Continue reading →

And for doing so consistently since the insurrection on Jan. 6, the GQP is going to toss her out of her leadership position, and replace her with a more obedient Congresswoman, Elise Stephanik. I would oppose all of Liz Cheney’s policy preferences, I am sure of it.
