As a PA resident, I think it only fair that the Republican party here not call their primary until ALL their voter fraud has been found, all lawsuits settled, all countersuits settled, the entire primary reheld at their expense, and repeat until the state can be SURE that there was 0% voter fraud in the Republican primary. Shouldn't take more than a few years, they can just sit this midterm out for the sake of integrity.

Or the US House could just declare the winners. 
 

It's perfectly constitutional. The constitution grants Congress the authority to choose its own membership.

Republican senator’s push to arrest abortion protesters meets GOP resistance

 

Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., wants the abortion-rights protesters demonstrating in front of the homes of Supreme Court justices to be swiftly arrested and prosecuted by the Justice Department.

 

Some of his Republican colleagues, however, say that would go too far and that it could violate First Amendment protections.

 

“I think if they’re being peaceful and are staying off their property and are not disrupting neighborhoods or causing or inciting fear, it’s probably a legitimate expression of free speech,” Sen. Cynthia Lummis, R-Wyo., a former member of the conservative House Freedom Caucus, said Wednesday.

 

“First Amendment rights are so, so special. … We should all be erring in favor of the First Amendment, in favor of freedom of speech, in favor of freedom of religion, in favor of the freedom of assembly,” she said. “Because if we start fearing our rights to speak and express our religious convictions, and if we fear assembly, the consequences of parsing those rights are extremely dangerous.”

 

Sen. Mike Braun, R-Ind., said he, too, believes peaceful protests — even outside the homes of justices — is protected speech.

 

“I’m a First Amendment guy, and I think that cuts both ways,” Braun said in an interview. “If they’re there and they’re doing it peacefully, you know, I’m for that ability on either side of the political spectrum.”

‘He’s Not OK’: The Entirely Predictable Unraveling of Madison Cawthorn

 

n August of 2015, 16 months after the accident that nearly killed him and left him unable to walk, Madison Cawthorn exchanged text messages with the friend who had fallen asleep at the wheel and careened into a concrete wall. Brad Ledford was about to head off to college. Cawthorn was living with his parents in a house that had been renovated for his wheelchair. He was suing Ledford and Ledford’s father’s business for millions of dollars of medical bills. Phone to phone, the teens bantered back and forth about getting together, but after a while it was clear Cawthorn didn’t want to.

 

Ledford referenced “the tension” of the court case and lamented they couldn’t hang out “the way we used to.”

 

“I miss everything,” Ledford said.

 

“I miss everything too,” Cawthorn shot back, unleashing one long, raw message, screens and screens of anguish and loss.

 

“I miss my life,” he said. “I miss being able to defend myself … being able to dress myself … being able to use the bathroom without someone helping me … I miss not peeing the bed because I have no control over my penis … not having to have pills keep me alive … being able to compete … being checked out by girls … I miss my pride as a man … the pride my father swelled with when he spoke my name … I miss,” he said, “not having to convince myself every day not to pull the trigger and end it all.”

 

Four and a half years after Cawthorn contemplated suicide, he was running for Congress.

Well, TBH, he's probably right, that the people who voted for the civil rights act weren't thinking about gays. 
 

The same is true, about the Second Amendment, and AR-15s. 

Ding, ding,ding…winner, winner, chicken dinner!

She's the 3rd highest ranking Republican, I think. These views are not just the MTGs and Boeberts of the world. 


In another Tweet, she actually used the phrase “pedo grifters” as a general description of Democrats. 
 

It is mind boggling how low the GOP has sunk.
