Republicans Coming for You

 Republicans have plans for how they will use their power. From If Republicans Retake Congress In November, Here’s What Their Agenda Will Look Like:

A little-noticed budget document, the Blueprint to Save America, released in June by the Republican Study Committee, details the group’s priorities. Since nearly 75 percent of Republican House lawmakers are RSC members, these priorities are shared by a majority of the GOP caucus. The 122-page manifesto, containing a laundry list of longstanding conservative desires, calls for significantly reducing the size of America’s social safety net, drastically limiting abortion access nationwide, effectively throwing in the towel on combatting climate change, raising the age requirement to receive full Social Security benefits, cracking down on transgender rights, and making it easier for Americans to carry concealed weapons.

Whatever dangers the Republicans claim for Democrats are the things they plan on doing. It is called projection.

As for the Democrats, The Democrats Have Been Embarrassingly Useless on Abortion:

Observers of American politics should by now know the Democratic Party is a feckless, corrupt institution incapable of meeting the challenges of our time — congenitally averse to fighting for its principles, to the extent that it actually has any. But even the most jaded cynics have to be shocked at just how useless the party’s response has been to the Right’s most recent assault on abortion rights.

Think on that any of you thinking the Dems will take away your rights. The only one taking away rights has been the Republicans of the United States Supreme Court.

Another time I might have laughed at Christian fascist admits to praying with Supreme Court justices in building itself at being over the top. Not after the recent Supreme Court decisions and Fox News puts out Justice Clarence Thomas is ‘our greatest living American,’ despite constant attacks from the left, author says. More worrisome now are those Americans thinking fascism will be good for themselves and for the country.

Closer to home, Indiana's Republicans miss the Special Session called by the Republican Governor. They do want to suspend the gas tax or approve distributing $225 to Indiana taxpayers. No, they are panting over criminalizing abortion. Indiana Democrats on first day of special session: “Where are Republicans?”. Unless Indiana's Republican legislators want to make for themselves a permanent legislature. Check out This year’s special session bucks historical trends.

Speaking of Indiana and criminalizing abortion, do we have the money to pay for more people in prison? Westville Correctional Facility project sees cost increases

No, the Democrats do not threaten our democracy and freedom.

Yes, the Republicans have restricted your rights and will do so the more power you give them.

Vote Democrat, if you prefer liberty to repression.
