Snap Shots of YOUR Republican Party, 21st Century Style

“I don’t hear this president speaking much about race, [but] for me, there are cultural distinctions that matter,” King said. “Whenever you import large numbers of people from singular cultures, you import the culture, too. That’s why a movement towards assimilation in the broader American civilization is so important. That’s been pushed on the back burner and it should be on the front burner.”

29 years and nine months ago I registered to vote and became a member of The Republican Party which was founded in 1854 to oppose slavery and stand for the dignity of human life. Today I renounce my membership in the Republican Party. It is fully the party of Trump.

It is corrupt, indecent and immoral. With the exception of a few Governors like Baker, Hogan and Kasich it is filled with feckless cowards who disgrace and dishonor the legacies of the party’s greatest leaders. This child separation policy is connected to the worst abuses of humanity in our history. It is connected by the same evil that separated families during slavery and dislocated tribes and broke up Native American families. It is immoral and must be repudiated. Our country is in trouble. Our politics are badly broken.

The first step to a season of renewal in our land is the absolute and utter repudiation of Trump and his vile enablers in the 2018 election by electing Democratic majorities. I do not say this as an advocate of a progressive agenda. I say it as someone who retains belief in DEMOCRACY and decency.

On Ronald Reagan’s grave are these words. “ I know in my heart that man is good. That what is right will always eventually triumph and there is purpose and worth to each and every life.” He would be ashamed of McConnell and Ryan and all the rest while this corrupt government establishes internment camps for babies. Everyone of these complicit leaders will carry this shame through history. There legacies will be ones of well earned ignominy. They have disgraced their country and brought dishonor to the Party of Lincoln.

I have spent much of my life working in GOP politics. I have always believed that both parties were two of the most important institutions to the advancement of human freedom and dignity in the history of the world. Today the GOP has become a danger to our democracy and values.

This Independent voter will be aligned with the only party left in America that stands for what is right and decent and remains fidelitous to our Republic, objective truth, the rule of law and our Allies. That party is the Democratic Party.

Hard to argue with that (unless you're Whell).

Considering that he's been a member of the party that became the refuge of the politaclly incorrect in 1968, his words strike me as self righteous political posturing. An establishment Republican wanting to weaken Trump candidates' midterm chances as a prelude to defeating him in the 2020 primary.

Stephen Miller, meet your great-grandfather, who flunked his naturalization test

Possibly the worst, most racist moron in a gaggle of morons in the current Resident's administration. Several others are shown to be hypocrites in this great article.

And beneath the photo, the reason given for his denial: Ignorance.

The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

As the article points out, the man likely wasn't stupid or unworthy. But his missing a few questions on a test became the excuse for a harsh and bigoted judgement--he sort of judgement he now evokes as policy.

Regarding another of Miller's ancestors, Rob Eshman of the Jewish Journal observed “The great-grandson of a desperate refugee can grow up to shill for the demagogue bent on keeping desperate refugees like his great-grandfather out.”

(CNN) - A top aide to Virginia GOP Senate nominee Corey Stewart has shared a number of conspiracy theories on social media, including tweets about "Pizzagate" and Facebook posts parroting the popular far-right theory that top Democrats were responsible for the death of a Democratic National Committee staffer, a KFile review has found.

The aide, Noel Fritsch, also shared anti-Muslim sentiments, calling gun-free zones and Muslims "a deadly combination," and objected to LGBT people being discussed on National Public Radio. He also commented on the white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia last August, saying, "One group had a permit to assemble" between them and the counter-protesters.

Conservative provocateur Milo Yiannopoulos on Thursday insisted on Thursday that he "wasn't being serious" when he recently told two reporters that he “can’t wait for the vigilante squads to start gunning journalists.”

Yiannopoulos's comments Thursday came shortly after a gunman opened fire in the Capital Gazette newsroom in Annapolis, Md., leaving at least five people dead and several others seriously injured. Authorities have taken a suspect into custody, but have not yet released an identity or a motive.
