Three Likely Republican Contenders For The White House Are Trump Critics!

Ronald 5 Comments

There are three potential Republican Presidential contenders who are standing out as major critics of Donald Trump.

None of the three have announced they will run, but it seems likely they will do so.

They are:

Former Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson

Former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie

New Hampshire Governor Chris Sununu

And Sununu is an outlier, in that he is saying that the Republicans need to stop trying to outlaw abortion nationally, as former Vice President Mike Pence and many other Republicans are advocating.

The question is whether any one of these three individuals can overcome the tremendous edge of Donald Trump and Ron DeSantis, and even others, including Mike Pence, Tim Scott, and Nikki Haley.

Bush One (Clarence Thomas) And Bush Two (Samuel Alito) Justices Are Out Of Control, Abusing Their Positions!

The Supreme Court yesterday delayed a decision on the FDA approved drug for abortion (Mifepristone) access, sending the case back to the 5th Circuit Court, but with eventual decision by the Supreme Court.

The idea of ending access to a drug approved more than 20 years ago, based on right wing and religious dogma, is infuriating, as there should never have been any challenge to a drug that has been deemed safe and effective for a generation.

It is also disturbing that the two Bush appointees to the Court—Clarence Thomas by George H. W. Bush, and Samuel Alito by George W. Bush–dissented in the decision to keep the drug operative until later consideration.

Both Thomas and Alito are clearly the most extremist right wing Justices of the past century of time, even more than Antonin Scalia, and Thomas is also corrupt with his abuse of his position to accept gifts and favors from wealthy conservative activists, making him someone who should be impeached and removed from the bench.

These two Justices besmirch the reputation of the Supreme Court. And Alito went further in his dissent on this matter, criticizing three female Justices in the process, including Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan, and shockingly, Amy Coney Barrett, accusing them of hypocrisy by name!

This gives a potential hint that by so doing this unseemly criticism of the three women justices, that they might, very well, join with Ketanji Brown Jackson (who was not on the Court until ten months ago) and Chief Justice John Roberts, to uphold Mifepristone access long term!

Doug Mastriano, Pennsylvania Republican Gubernatorial Nominee, Clear And Present Danger!

Ronald 1 Comment

Doug Mastriano, the Republican nominee for Governor of Pennsylvania, is seen as a clear and present danger, were he to be elected.

He is an extreme far right winger, promoting Christian nationalism, the idea that there is no separation of church and state, and he has embraced Q-Anon conspiracy theories.

Additionally, he was involved in the US Capitol Insurrection on January 6, 2021, and breached US Capitol police barriers, although claiming not being involved in assault and destruction.

He is Isamophobic, antisemitic, and homophobic, and has promoted September 11 conspiracy theories in the past.

Mastriano comes across as unhinged, and nine Pennsylvania Republicans have repudiated him as too extremist for them to support him, after he won the gubernatorial nomination with only 40 percent of the vote against multiple candidates more moderate than he is in his views.

He has only been a Pennsylvania State Senator since mid 2019, having spent his career in the military, reaching the level of Colonel in the US Army.

He opposed removal of Confederate monuments, and has been a bitter critic of COVID 19 Policies, including opposing masking, and promoting drug treatments that are shown to be sham.

Mastriano has made clear that if elected, he would appoint a Secretary of State who would only accept that the Republican Presidential nominee in 2024 won the state’s electoral votes, no matter what the popular vote demonstrates.

He is against any exceptions for abortion, including rape, incest, and life of the mother; and supports gun rights without restrictions; and is a major critic of the Environmental Protection Agency regulations.

Also, Mastriano has said his governorship, if elected, would be much more right wing conservative than Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, calling him an “amateur”!

Democratic nominee, state Attorney General Josh Shapiro leads in polls, but every effort to prevent this right wing extremist from being elected must be mounted, as Mastriano’s election would be disastrous for Pennsylvania and American politics!

The United States, supposedly the leader of the “free world”, has now joined four other nations recently banning abortion, including Poland, Nicaragua, El Salvador, and Honduras!

Meanwhile, at least 59 other nations, which put America to shame, have expanded abortion rights, including all other democracies in Western Europe, some areas of South America and some nations in Asia, as well as Australia and New Zealand.

Most of the Middle East and Africa restrict or ban abortion, as well as areas of Latin America and Asia.
