A Partial List of Republican Sex Criminals

This is the GOP. This is the party of family values. This list is long and it may make you sick.

You have been warned. This list IS FACTUAL. This is who Republican VOTERS choose to elect AND RE-ELECT over and over again.

The GOP refuses to condemn Trump's sexual assaults because they are the same as him.

Abortion, Bodily Autonomy, and Constitutional Rights

We always hear the “pro-life” crowd crowing about the “rights” of the unborn, but always missing from this conversation is any discussion about the rights of the mother. The assumption is always that “you’re pregnant so to hell with your rights, those of the baby take precedence”.

Notice my language here. I did not say fetus. I said baby. I’m going to concede up front that the fetus is a human being and not “just a piece of tissue”, but when I’m done, you’re going to be furious that you ever made this argument, because if you are “pro-life”, this is going to show you just what a hypocrite you really are, both about the constitution itself and about human rights generally.

Republicans Are Racists and They Admit It Themselves

Those of you who know me know that I collect extensive evidence to counter the right wing lie that the GOP is "still the party of Lincoln" and not racists. This post will give you some references.

More on "Mayor Pete" and His Extensive Problematic Positions On Almost Everything

Buttigieg deliberately gentrified South Bend, forcing hundreds into homelessness and personally profiting from this cruelty.

This wasn't the first time he was criticized for this either.

The damage he caused was extensive to black and Hispanic communities.

DeVos Will Recommend the Removal of Civil Rights Protections for Students of Color

DeVos Will Recommend the Removal of Civil Rights Protections for Students of Color

Betsy Devos has not yet made this recommendation, yet, that the linked article discusses. And that is probably because of the massive blowback that came after trying to remove protections and programs to support special needs students. They're going to let this die down before they come back to racial protections as a target.

Now some of you still want to think they are not that blatant. Some of you want to think that the 1964 Civil Rights Act is "settled law". And indeed, Trump and his religious bigot cronies have no intention of striking down the 1964 Civil Rights Act. Instead, they plan to create a system of exemptions from its application, based on religious belief.

The Conservative Fallacy That Civil Rights Can be Improved Via The Free Market

It's a standard conservative argument that the free market will fix civil rights issues. But let me ask you a question - if the free market is so good at fixing civil rights issues, why did the plight of blacks in America not improve much at all from 1865 to 1964? The free market did nothing for 99 years. Entire lives were lived under Jim Crow laws. Blacks were routinely lynched for just looking the wrong way. Where was the free market? How long should oppressed people wait for the free market to "fix" civil rights issues? Should they wait a century? A thousand years? Ten thousand years? How long?

The Second Amendment And Slave Patrols

The second amendment was conceived primarily as a means to allow slave holding states to maintain their slave patrols. It is important to remember this history and not fall into the trap of believing that the second amendment is about protecting the nation at all.

I will demonstrate this by referring to the words of the founding fathers themselves.

Pete Buttigieg's Record As Mayor Is Not Pretty

This is not my research but I wanted to preserve it because it is comprehensive about things he could control as mayor yet totally failed to do, or simply did not care. Pete Buttigieg is getting support from the wealthy precisely because he is one of their own and he won’t rock the boat against them. He is not a progressive! Feel free to share this far and wide. I may add to it over time as well. Pete Buttigieg is not one of us.

The Southern Strategy Is Real

The Southern Strategy is real and I have the proof – a PDF of a May 17, 1970 NY Times article where they interviewed Kevin Phillips, the man who created the Southern Strategy for Richard Nixon.

Here are some sample transcribed quotes from the article.
