“What Prop 47 did was reclassify some low-level drug and property offenses as misdemeanors rather than felonies – still keeping them as crimes,”

“… judges have the leeway to impose a felony punishment – up to three years in county jail – to someone convicted on a misdemeanor charge, Kubrin said.

Trump and his MAGA MORON supporters are saying the people should decide who gets to run for office. But that wasn’t the tune he had been whistling for years when talking about his opponents.

“And during the 2016 campaign, on dozens of occasions he said that Hillary Clinton shouldn’t “be allowed to run” because of her private email server. “She shouldn’t be allowed to run for president. She shouldn’t be allowed,” Trump said shortly before Election Day 2016. “I’m telling you, she should not be allowed to run for president based on her crimes. She should not be allowed to run for president.”

“According to information available to committee investigators, China made the largest total payments — $5.5 million — to Trump’s private businesses. The Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (ICBC), one of China’s biggest state-owned banks, was among Trump Tower’s largest office tenants during the Trump presidency. The report notes that during Trump’s first year in the White House, several Chinese banks — including ICBC — came under scrutiny for financial ties to North Korea, causing the administration to weigh sanctions against them”

Because Republicans are anti democratic and are known cheaters.

Their main focus is to add people to the voter rolls,” Jim Womack said, adding: “There was an argument that said it’s a good thing for conservatives if more people vote. I fundamentally disagree with that."

“The last major overhaul of state elections law came in 2013, and was later struck down in court for targeting Black voters with what the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals called “almost surgical precision.”

“Studies also suggest that differences in vaccination attitudes — and GOP voters’ lower uptake of the vaccine — have been linked to Republicans dying at higher rates than Democrats from the coronavirus after vaccines became widely available in April 2021”

…after April 2021, the gap in excess death rates emerged, with the rate for Republicans 7.7 percentage points higher than the rate for Democrats. For Republicans, that translated into a 43 percent increase in excess deaths.

Looks like there will be less MAGA Morons around in 2024

“A Republican voter, she said she would have attended herself had she not had a stroke. Her sister went, but did not go in the building after seeing people retreat with chemical spray in their eyes. What Michaels heard from the people who went, combined with security footage released to and selectively edited by former Fox News host Tucker Carlson, leads her to believe in the conspiracy theory that undercover FBI agents instigated the riot”

“In the beginning when I heard about it, I was very upset that Trump didn’t come out and say, ‘Stop,’” said Gloria Bowden of Jacksonville, Fla., a 68-year-old independent voter who leans Republican. But now, having seen video clips of police using tear gas and rubber bullets on rioters, she thinks the attack was instigated by law enforcement”

These are the geniuses of America 

Their grandparents said the same thing right up until Pearl Harbor.

Those are some good genes those MAGA Morons have!

A few MAGA Morons yell at him at the airport and he looks like he had been ganged raped. Can you imagine this guy in combat? He’s a little, scared girl.

And let’s not forget the Durham report found no wrongdoing by the FBI. 

More bad news for Republicans. But of course FOX News is telling their moron viewers the opposite.

“The flow of huge amounts of crude from American producers is playing a big role in keeping prices down at the pump, diminishing the geopolitical power of OPEC, and taming inflation. The average price of a gallon of regular gasoline nationwide has dropped to close to $3”

“The United States is producing about 13.2 million barrels of crude oil per day. That is millions of gallons more than is coming out of Saudi Arabia or Russia. It is more oil than was being produced even at its peak during the pro-fossil-fuels administration of former president Donald Trump, when production was 13 million barrels a day in November 2019”

“A year that started out with bleak prospects, including a widely predicted recession, shaped up to be a boon for the average American worker — and one of the most triumphant for organized labor in a generation.
More than 525,000 workers in the United States walked off the job in 2023, according to Bloomberg Law’s database of work stoppages, making it one of the three biggest strike years since 1990. Many of those strikes led to big concessions from employers, such as the landmark deal reached by the UAW in October”

“The unemployment rate, a key indicator of the labor market’s health, has remained below 4 percent for two years as of November, a stretch last accomplished in the 1960s”

Just look at the declaration of Secession made by her South Carolina in 1860

all the States north of that line have united in the election of a man to the high office of President of the United States, whose opinions and purposes are hostile to slavery.

“Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine struck down a bill that would have banned gender-affirming care for minors, breaking from fellow Republican governors’ precedent and preserving such care for residents beyond his state as well, because families of transgender youths who live in states with bans have been traveling to Ohio for treatment”

Amazing that a Republican would have the brains and balls to defy the MAGA Morons. There’s still a few of them left but they are disappearing fast.

The MAGA Morons won’t be happy until all transgender people, and they are people, have either been hidden away or killed themselves.

“Were I to sign House Bill 68… Ohio would be saying that the state, that the government knows better what is medically best for a child than the two people who love that child the most: The parents.”

But he was never allowed to serve in elected office again.

“On May 9, 1865 Union soldiers found Davis's encampment near Irwinville, Georgia. He tried to evade them, but was captured wearing a loose-sleeved cloak and covering his head with a black shawl,[241] which gave rise to depictions of him in political cartoons fleeing in women's clothes.[242]

Davis was captured, accused of treason, and imprisoned at Fort Monroe. He was released without trial after two years”

“The bankruptcy filing was the latest in a long line of woes that Mr. Giuliani, a former crusading federal prosecutor and mayor of New York, has suffered in the three years since he took the job as the lead lawyer in Mr. Trump’s attempts to reverse his loss”

Citing evidence from the House select committee and the witnesses from Trump’s own White House as well as other Republican officials who testified against him, the court ruled that Trump is disqualified as a candidate for any federal office.

“Six Republican and independent voters from Colorado invoked the provision in a lawsuit this fall meant to keep Trump off the ballot. After a week-long trial, Denver District Judge Sarah B. Wallace in November ruled that Trump had engaged in insurrection but could remain on the ballot because she determined Section 3 does not apply to those running for president.
The voters appealed the part of the ruling that kept him on the ballot, while Trump appealed the part that concluded that he had engaged in insurrection.
The Colorado Supreme Court upheld much of Wallace’s findings but reversed her decision on key points by finding Section 3 applies to the presidency.“

Imagine being one of the millions of wack jobs that still supports this guy. They are truly un-American and don’t deserve the right to vote.

In this video, wack job Republican Senator (now with a beard to look more like a typical MAGA Moron) Ron Johnson offers up his bullshit on why Trump’s fake elector scheme was nothing illegal or even unusual. He claims Democrats did the same thing in the past without being able to give any specifics.

But of course, as usual, the facts and what Republicans believe are very, very different things in Wisconsin and in the other states that sent alternate electors to Congress after the 2020 election.

Please understand if you are still a member of the Republican Party you are a disgrace 

Gas was an average of 2.97 per gallon in April 2019. It’s 3.35 today. So much for “massive” inflation 

The judge, a Republican nominee, declared the separations unlawful and ordered the families reunited in June 2018, after President Donald Trump halted the policy amid widespread condemnation.
Trump’s zero-tolerance policy ran from May to June 2018. Later, investigations determined that officials separated migrant families throughout Trump’s four-year term, which ended in January 2021.
Biden administration officials said the Trump administration separated more than 4,000 children from their parents, though past estimates have put that figure as high as 5,500. Lawyers for the ACLU, which represented the migrant families in court, estimated that as many as 1,000 children may still be separated from their parents. Advocates are trying to track them down”

Trump and his idiot minions are reprehensible.

Oh no! Record low unemployment! This is terrible…if you’re a MAGA Moron

Unemployment is at 3.7 %. Remember when we had 16% unemployment under Trump?

Somehow they weren’t charged criminally, so they avoid jail time for trying to overturn a valid election. Good thing they weren’t black.

“Wednesday’s civil settlement marks the first time pro-Trump electors have agreed to revoke their false filings and not repeat their actions in the next presidential election. It comes as Republicans in two other states face criminal charges for falsely claiming to be presidential electors, and investigations are underway in three additional states”

“Bridget Ziegler, 41, has crusaded to purge schools around the country of books that encourage acceptance of different sexual and gender identities or highlight discrimination against Black people”

“They have held themselves out to be paragons of the Christian conservative family values, a prototype,” Roach said. “And I think there’s a very heavy sense of betrayal, certainly within the Republican Party”

The Party of family values? Lol

The leader of the Florida Republican Party and his wife who is a DeeSantis ally on social issues is accused of rape after a 3 way sexual encounter was called off.

The Party of hypocrites and deplorables 

I guess SNL said it best - it’s not gay when your in a 3 way

Thanks to Biden, the US economy is growing faster than the Chinese economy for the first time in 40 years.

The wack job who assaulted Nancy Pelosi’s husband is going to jail for a long long time.

This is the kind of guy the Republican Party attracts - conspiracy theorists and knuckleheads, liars and criminals.

Meanwhile, Donald Trump encourages the nonsense. They are his base - the MAGA Morons 

“At a campaign rally on Saturday in New Hampshire, for example, former President Donald J. Trump called Ms. Pelosi a “crazed lunatic” to a crowd of supporters, and added: “What the hell was going on with her husband? Let’s not ask.”

“It was not Nancy Pelosi’s actions as a government official that motivated DePape, Chuang argued. Rather, it was her leadership of the Democratic Party, which DePape believed was part of a corrupt ruling-class cabal that promoted child molestation”

So the guy running the committee to investigate the “Biden Crime Family” has his own shell company (a business with no employees, income or profits) to create paper loses that can be passed through his personal return to shelter his earned income from taxes and make “loans” to his brother.

Apparently Comer doesn’t just abuse his office or tax laws, he also abuses women.

Haley says she doesn’t want to be judged for her stance on having an abortion nor will she judge others for their choice. That makes her Pro-choice.

Pro-choice people think each individual should decide if they get an abortion or not. They don’t say all women must get abortions, they say it’s up to each individual.

Pro-life people say not only would they never get an abortion, they don’t want anyone else to get one either.

If you say you won’t judge women (or pass laws to stop them) for getting an abortion then your pro-choice.

Ohio votes to create a constitutional right to abortion. Just like Kansas did a while back.

The Republican effort to ban abortion or limit it to a period that is an effective ban is wildly out of touch with the public.

“A Republican-led effort to expel Representative George Santos of New York failed decisively on Wednesday night, after a group of lawmakers from Mr. Santos’s home state could not persuade nearly enough of their colleagues that his admitted lies and federal indictment were sufficient grounds to oust him.“

Not surprising, lying and breaking the law are prerequisites to being a Republican 

“Rep. Ken Buck (R-Colo.) said Wednesday that he would not seek reelection next year, expressing disappointment that many fellow Republicans continue to push the “big lie” that the 2020 presidential election was stolen”

“Buck’s announcement came hours after Rep. Kay Granger (R-Tex.) also said she would not seek reelection next year”

There will be nobody left but the wack jobs like Boebert the clown, Marjorie (I’m really a man) Greene, and Jim “I see nothing” Jordan.

Imagine having the temerity to call Biden old when you have to wear a diaper!

“The end of the day, it’s, the problem is the human heart. It’s not guns. It’s not the weapons. At the end of the day, we have to protect the right of the citizens to protect themselves, and that’s the Second Amendment.”

This was MAGA Mike’s response to the mass shooting in Maine.

But he’s full of shit. If the human heart was the problem, there would be a mass shooting problem all over the world. The United States is the only country that has a mass shooting problem.

The problem is the human heart. Gun violence is an unchangeable, immutable fact of the human condition. Right? That is why it is localized so strongly to this country and this time period. This is not a problem with a solution. It is the price you pay for being human. Only a moron - a MAGA Moron would believe this narrative.

Trump was fined $10,000 for his lie and stormed out of the court like a petulant child 

“Johnson was born in Shreveport, Louisiana, the oldest of four children of Jeanne Johnson and James Patrick Johnson.[1][2] He has said that he is the product of an unplanned pregnancy and that his parents were teenagers when they had him.[3] They later divorced.[4] 

What wonderful family values this guy is a product of. 

So if you are keeping track, both Jim Jordan and Michael Johnson were born out of wedlock.

“New government data released Thursday by the Bureau of Economic Analysis shows that gross domestic product expanded between July and September, capping five straight quarters of growth and eluding a long-feared recession.“

Bad news for Republicans who keep praying for a recession but their prayers go unanswered.(because there is no God you idiots)

Yeah America! You were so wise to vote Republican and lift the ban on new assault weapons.

You were so wise to allow ordinary citizens to have weapons of war so when they go crazy they can kill a bunch of people real fast

“GOP Rep. Jim Banks railed against Rep. Tom Emmer, telling CNN’s Manu Raju that the speaker designee is not conservative enough.“

Emmer doesn’t have a record of molesting boys on a wrestling team before he was elected so right off that’s a positive change for the Republicans 

“Sidney Powell pleaded guilty Thursday to illegally conspiring to interfere with Georgia elections”

What do the MAGA Morons need to believe that Trump tried to steal the election he said was stolen from him in the BIG LIE?

“Powell admitted guilt to six misdemeanor counts of conspiracy to commit intentional interference with the performance of election duties.“

We all know that the longest serving Republican Speaker of the House, Dennis Hastert, was a disgusting, pervert who molested boys on his high school wrestling team when he was a coach.

Now the Republicans are going to double down on child harming wrestling coaches and vote on Jim Jordan. Jordan was a wrestling coach at Ohio State when the team doctor was abusing athletes there. Jordan’s players went to him for help but Jordan looked the other way and didn’t stop the abuse.

This is the kind of guy Republicans elect and other Republicans vote to leadership positions.

Republicans are a disgrace 

“Let’s just say he was not treated well by his fellow Ohioan (John Boehner)who, you know, used terms like ‘knucklehead’ and so on,” Issa said.

The normal Republicans knew Jordon was a moron and treated him like one.

Current-dollar GDP increased 9.2 percent, or $2.15 trillion, in 2022 to a level of $25.46 trillion, compared with an increase of 10.7 percent, or $2.25 trillion, in 2021.

-  Bureau of Economic Analysis 

Under Trump the country never had better than 3% annual GDP growth.

Krist Noem, the very pious and religious Governor of South Dakota, has been cheating on her husband.

When will the country grow tired of these Trumper frauds?

FOX News is owned by Australians. Not only that, these are Australians with the names Rupert and Lachlan. These are not Americans.

Why would conservatives, who claim to be Patriots and the greatest most loyal Americans, listen to foreigners? 

Rupert is a 4 times divorced foreigner at that.

“Murdoch made his first acquisition in the United States in 1973, when he purchased the San Antonio Express-News. In 1974, Murdoch moved to New York City, to expand into the US market; however, he retained interests in Australia and Britain. Soon afterwards, he founded Star, a supermarket tabloid, and in 1976, he purchased the New York Post.[5] On 4 September 1985, Murdoch became a naturalized citizen to satisfy the legal requirement that only US citizens were permitted to own US television stations.“

So he wasn’t born here. He wasn’t raised or educated here. The only reason he bought a U.S. citizenship was so he could buy our TV stations. 

Obviously, FOX News watchers are unAmerican.

We all know (or should know) the longest serving Republican Speaker of the House was a child molester. Dennis Hastert, sexually abused boys on the high school wrestling team he coached, before he was elected to Congress. That is not in dispute. That is the kind of guy Republicans elect and the kind of guy other Republicans elevate to leadership positions in their party. They still operate the House under the “Hastert Rule” which says: the Speaker will not schedule a floor vote on any bill that does not have majority support within their party—even if the majority of the members of the House would vote to pass it. Leave it to Republicans to base their operations on the judgement of a child molester.

Now they are seriously considering another degenerate wrestling coach for the Speaker position - Jim SEE NO EVIL Jordan. Jordan was a coach at Ohio State when the team doctor was molesting members of his team some years back. Jordan turned a blind eye to the abuse and did nothing that any normal adult would do in that situation. This is the kind of guy Republicans see leadership potential in.

A MAGA Moron who assaulted police and reporters on January 6 is now going to jail for a deadly drunk driving incident in his pickup truck.

“In a court filing, defense attorney Dwight Crawley said Shane Woods “comes from a fractured home” and has “untreated mental health issues … exacerbated by his drug and alcohol abuse.”

All destroyed by the monster they created. Lol. Classic!

“McCarthy was one of a trio of “young guns,” youthful rising stars among House Republicans. Paul Ryan was another and a third was former representative Eric Cantor (Va.). Now all three have been felled, Cantor in a 2014 primary election that caught him by surprise and Ryan after growing weary from fights with Trump and hard-right rebels…Of the three, McCarthy’s defeat was the most ignominious”

Bye bye you idiots. You created this monster known as the MAGA Morons and now you are all out of politics 

The MAGA Morons are tearing down institutions. They are subversives, just like their dear leader FAT Donald Trump. 

Tonight they caused their Speaker of the House to be terminated. He will not try to return. Republicans use to pretend they wanted compromise years ago but now they are done pretending. They would rather burn the government down than pass legislation with the support of Democrats.

They want to cut spending after they just cut taxes for America’s wealthiest citizens. What do they want to cut? A tiny sliver of the spending aimed at the poor.

“The proposed rules would establish a credit system for automakers supplying California car dealerships and take effect in 2026. In that year, 35% of all new cars an auto manufacturer sells to California dealerships would need to be either zero-emission, plug-in hybrid or hydrogen-powered vehicles. That would increase to 68% in 2030 and 100% by 2035”

While Mississippi continues to live in the past, making buggy whips for their horse drawn carriages, California is preparing for the future. A future that must come because oil supplies can’t last forever and burning fossil fuels is causing global warming and harmful to the environment.

So California will lead and make the sometimes painful transition to clean energy while Mississippi continues with the old ways. It’s only proper. When has Mississippi ever led on anything? Women’s rights? No. Slavery? No. Technology? No. Education? No.

California has the money and the numbers in population to lead on necessary change. The rest of the country will follow, no doubt kicking and screaming all the way.

Let’s be clear, because some people including Chris Christie last night, keep getting it wrong.

“Christie is in the ballpark, but his numbers are a bit low. According to the Treasury Department, the nation’s total public debt, including intragovernmental holdings, climbed from about $20 trillion to $27.8 trillion under Trump, a gain of $7.9 trillion.”

No news here. Doesn’t matter. Facts don’t matter to republicans. So he’s a liar and a cheat. That doesn’t matter to republicans. He dodged the draft. So what?

He cheats on his wives and his taxes, so what? He lied about the election being rigged and instigated a violent insurrection breaking a 200+ year history of a peaceful transfer of power - BFD.

“Defendants’ conduct in repeating these frivolous arguments is egregious,” Judge Engoron wrote. “The defenses Donald Trump attempts to articulate in his sworn deposition are wholly without basis in law or fact.”
