Eric Greitens, who was Governor of Missouri till he resigned due to allegations of sexual misconduct, is now running for the Senate. His ex wife just reported on his abuse against her and their son.
It should be noted that, at least as of yesterday before the shit hit the fan, Greitens was in the lead among GOP Senate candidates. I guess MO voters don’t let a little thing like having to resign in disgrace hinder their support for a candidate.
While that may be true (especially with Tucker “I fellate Putin” Carlson), I’m not sure how it applies in this particular case where the esteemed Ms. Blackburn seems to think that there is no right to privacy, and the state should be allowed to outlaw married couples purchasing contraception.
Senator Mike Braun thinks that the right of mixed race couples to marry should have been decided by the states, not the Supreme Court. In the same interview, he was asked again about the topic and repeated his contention. Only later, after the interviews had ended and he was asked about it again, did he backpedal.
Although that particular ruling was worded in terms of married couples, lack of access to contraception would (and did) disproportionately impact women. So in this case I was using “Quisling” to call her out as a woman who eagerly sides with the oppressors of women.
I was just going to post this. You beat me to it during my commute and morning class prep.
Is there really any doubt whatsoever that today’s Republican party platform is bigotry and that the party is a criminal enterprise?
p.s. My wife and I are of different ethnicities so this idiot’s contentions can have an impact on our lives if we decide to move back to the United States.
The truck convoy says they’re planning on conducting citizens’ arrests against DC police and the DC mayor.
One member of the convoy is accused of hitting a pedestrian, but he claims she stepped in front of his car and lay down. Note that his car (note that he was not driving a truck) was a BMW.’
I am reminded of Senator J. Billington Bulworth’s sleep-deprived rap/rant in the TV studio in which he said that we should all [schtup] each other until everyone is gray.
