Trump and GOP at it again

 Nevada GOP primary loser sues over “unfair election”: “Mathematical impossibility” that I lost

Failed far-right Nevada Republican gubernatorial candidate Joey Gilbert filed a lawsuit seeking to overturn his primary defeat, citing an "analysis" that found his loss to be a "mathematical impossibility" even after a recount he requested confirmed the results.

I thought there was a swing set installer posing as expert mathematician in the 2020 election "Stop the Steal" movement. It's the same guy:

The "expert mathematician" cited by Gilbert is infamous election conspiracy theorist Edward Solomon, who falsely claimed to have found evidence that the 2020 presidential election was rigged using an algorithm — a claim repeatedly debunked by expert fact-checkers, who noted that Solomon's claims show a "basic misunderstanding of how vote counts work."

Dominion Voting Systems, the voting tech company at the heart of one of Trumpworld's debunked conspiracy theories, said in a lawsuit against right-wing network OAN that Solomon is a "convicted drug dealer who never graduated college and whose current job was setting up swing sets in Long Island, New York."

Yeah, I'll totally trust a drug dealing swing set installer that never graduated college when it comes to electoral math. /s 

This is what passes for "evidence" of fraud in the Republican mind. These people are so deluded and steeped in propaganda that there is no coming back.

This will be how every asshole far right Republican will handle losing from now on.

Wisconsin official says Trump phoned him last week to pressure him to change election results

Wisconsin Assembly Speaker Robin Vos on Tuesday said former president Donald Trump is still pressuring him to purportedly rescind the Badger State’s 2020 electoral votes, even though there is no legal way to do so and no ground to even consider such an action.

Hey DOJ, this is what happens when you don't take action, criminals keep breaking the law.

Trump pressured top Wisconsin Republican to decertify 2020 results, then threatened him — last week 

Former President Donald Trump is still waging his campaign to reverse his 2020 election loss more than 20 months later, issuing a thinly veiled threat to a top Wisconsin Republican who rebuffed his request to decertify the state's results.

Jesus fucking Christ just arrest this guy. Just read a story about a young black dude who got executed by cops for being in the vicinity of an armed persons report. Meanwhile, this dickwad is actively undermining democracy.

He's desperate to be President RIGHT NOW to break up the hearings. He can't wait until the next election because he'll probably be in jail by then. The guy is like a cornered rat now.

N. Carolina Bill Proposing Women Who Get Abortions Be Executed Sparks Fury 

Although the bill was filed in February 2021 and received little support from state legislators, it received renewed attention on social media after viral tweets incorrectly stated it was introduced recently, in the wake of the Supreme Court's historic reversal of its decision in Roe v. Wade last month.

"Republicans in North Carolina just introduced a bill that'd make abortion punishable with death," Santiago Mayer, the founder and executive director of Voters of Tomorrow, a nonprofit focused on getting young people into politics, wrote in a tweet on Monday that has so far been shared more than 20,000 times. "So very pro-life of them."

The Republicans are openly showing us who they are, but we need to make sure everyone sees it.

I dont want to see a single solitary Republican voter complaining about any of this shit because

THIS IS WHAT YOU'VE BEEN FUCKING VOTING FOR FOR THE LAST 40Y

Yall don't get a "bUt I lIkE tHeiR tAx pOlicIeS" pass anymore and to be frank- too many people were ok with giving that pass to begin with, its always been a bunch of bullshit

Fuck that- You Vote GOP you own all this shit 

Democrats Just Forced Every House Republican to Take a Stance on Marriage Equality

The Respect for Marriage Act is not only correct as a matter of public policy, it is also good politics. By pushing for a vote on the Respect for Marriage Act, Democrats have forced House Republicans (and likely their Senate colleagues too) to make their views explicit when it comes to marriage equality. And on Tuesday, 157 Republicans voted against the Respect for Marriage Act.

 Here is what could happen... Congress could pass a law and then the elected officials that need to can support it and look fine. Then states like Tennessee can sue and ask SCOTUS to determine the Constitutionality of the law and overturn it. Then the elected officials can says they did the right thing by supporting it, all the while knowing that the SCOTUS would likely review and overturn.

That being said, I don't think it would be easy to make a good argument for it being unconstitutional. However, it seems to me that this Supreme Court prefers to make decisions and then seek legal theories to support it rather than using precedent and legal theory to make a decision.
