Here come the Republicans, guns blazing, ready to tank the economy because they lost an election. Mainly because they don't give a crap about regular people. F the libs, amirite?

Un-American. They're trying to turn this country into Belarus or Burundi.

I mean there's only a pandemic going around that claimed almost 2,000 lives yesterday. No reason to rush, Emily.
As you know A loyal R takes precedent over a loyal American. True patriots.

Seems to me there a lot of persons giving up their political aspirations or positions this month. Just Saying!

I imagine these cases will make it to the Supreme Court and we’ll find out how pro-life all these Catholic justices are. I have a strong, strong hunch how that will go. Will be happy to be wrong on this but I doubt I will be.

Will be happy to be wrong on this but I doubt I will be. Justice Barrett has already participated in a death penalty case and she may have allowed it to go forward. By Robert Barnes November 20, 2020 at 5:45 p.m. EST The Supreme Court continued its trend late Thursday night of allowing federal executions to go forward, with new Justice Amy Coney Barrett participating in her first capital punishment case on the court. The court lifted a stay of execution for Orlando Hall that had been issued by a federal judge in Washington earlier Thursday. About an hour after the high court’s action, Hall was put to death by lethal injection in the Bureau of Prison’s facility in Terre Haute, Ind. In 1998, she co-wrote a law review article, titled “Catholic Judges in Capital Cases,” that described the tensions. She suggested judges who felt they could not be impartial because of their faith should recuse and wrote, “Catholic judges (if they are faithful to the teaching of their church) are morally precluded from enforcing the death penalty.” www.washingtonpost.com/politics/courts_law/amy-coney-barrett-orlando-hall-execution/2020/11/20/ba28d3c6-2b47-11eb-9b14-ad872157ebc9_story.html

Wait, are you telling me that these Catholics are hypocrites? Shocking

Your anti-democratic Republican Party (not to mention the biggest losers): I hope that President Trump’s outrageous attempt to overturn the results of an election that he lost by 74 electoral college votes and more than 6 million popular votes will be the last gasp of a pathetic presidency in its dying days. But I fear that it might represent only a middle chapter in the Republican Party’s transformation, as a Swedish research institute has warned, into an authoritarian party similar to the Fidesz party in Hungary, the Law and Justice party in Poland, the Justice and Development Party in Turkey and the Bharatiya Janata Party in India. The impetus for the GOP’s growing aversion to democracy is clear: It has lost the popular vote in seven of the past eight presidential elections. That is a streak of futility unmatched in U.S. history. To maintain power — and avert the Venezuela-style apocalypse that many conservatives fear will result from Democratic dominance — the GOP must rely on institutions such as the electoral college and the Senate that give outsize weight to red states. That, in turn, has allowed Republicans to fill the federal courts with judges who will perpetuate their policy preferences for decades to come. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2020/11/23/trumps-legacy-may-be-an-increasingly-authoritarian-republican-party/

It also requires the willingness to accept fault and blame. Draw your own conclusions.
