Effort to Remove Marjorie Taylor Greene From Ballot Can Proceed, Judge Says

Exactly, shes an idiot, and idiots have a right to run for office.
Unless they violate the Constitution as she may have done.

As such, if it is deemed that she did, she can be removed from the ballot as the law allows.

If you don’t like that, fine. Then go through the legal process to make changes.

And don’t try for an insurrection.
 
Enough that they are no longer a consequential voting block. Then this tantrum will stop and we will make progress again. This sort of thing seems to happen every 80-100 years to this country. The last time was the 1920s and the moral panics over jazz, masturbation, yellow journalism, communists/social darwinists, eugenics, married women who had job (or wore pants), etc.

They got resolved though. I think the US will navigate this new self made crisis as well. And like before, our national character, internal mythology and stories, and concept of community will change, as it does after these moments.
So-called moral panics over eugenics and communism/ social Darwinism are a good thing. Of course contemporary Democrats celebrate the racism of eugenics and social Darwinism so they like to pretend there is no issue.

Support for Biden's Progressive agenda is dissolving among the young.

"On average, fewer than 3 in 10 adults under the age of 30 approve of Biden's job performance as president, and a majority disapproves, according to online polling conducted by the Economist and YouGov. Biden's net negative 21 approval rating with the demographic is his worst among any age group, the organizations found. On top of that, Biden has a net negative 17 rating among people aged between 30 and 44."

Who can say if it's Progressive policies that define life expectations in terms of identity group, runaway inflation, open border, homeless camps on edge of schools, and the reduction of the US role in the world to subservience to international bureaucrats.

Lol, no they don’t.

Correct they see him as not being progressive enough.

You just put a lot of things with unrelated causes in a single statement.
 
Why should people other than employers decide what labor is worth to them?
Because workers will organize. My dad always told me if you take care of your workers, they will take care of you. The other side is if you piss off your workers too much you might wake up with some wildcats.
 
Lol, no they don’t.

You're delusional if you think Biden’s loss of support is because he's not radical enough. Remember Biden ran on being a moderate. Turned out that was a charade.

Right all the disasters from Biden's policies are "unrelated". Denial is a strategy just not a good one.

Ahh, so you see those things as the result of Biden’s policies then. That does seem to be the conservative narrative.

Nah. Not sure what they’re telling you on Fox, but the reality is millennials and progressives are ticked off at him for not fulfilling many of his campaign promises, like college loan forgiveness.


 

I don't have an opinion yet, but it certainly is an interesting development.
Seems unnecessary, besides the notably undemocratic character of it until she's proven guilty of an actual crime; it shouldn't be hard to defeat an absolute idiot like MTG.

Could be seen as a sort of recall effort.
 
For starters, workers wages are not "completely stagnant" or even close.
View attachment 67386806

Second, you seem to believe that management has an obligation to share profits with workers or share the benefits of efficiencies with them. They don't; that is not their purpose.
Yes, real median wages that increase at ~0.7% a year is actually in fact pretty close to completely stagnant by any sane measure, and then you do your homework and realize that the FRED's is by far one of the most optimistic assessments of real median income growth.

Pew Research places hourly wage growth as defined by purchasing power for the same period to be essentially negative vis a vis 1975 to 2018 (excluding supervisory positions); and that's an average, not a median, which means that the median situation is actually worse given historic income inequality biased towards top earners:


Congressional Research Service reports declines in median real wages from 1979 to 2019 for men of the 50th and 10th percentile, and a pitiful overall increase of 0.2% per year for that period:

Actually, Trump is a eugenicist.
 
She couldn't remember if she advocated for Marshall law with the Trump administration.

Clearly she lied under oath. She sought to overturn the last election.

An editorial opinion versus respected public opinion polls. There are more polls than the one I cited that show the same erosion of support from younger voters. Polls aren't perfect but they are more a more reliable means of assessing demographic groups than hand picked sources by an opinion writer.

Again, provide a citation with links supporting your claim the drop off in support for Biden among the young and younger voters demographic is because he is not Progressive enough. Vague threats from special interest groups and solidly Democrat union members aren't proof.

It's not how I see the results of Biden’s disasterous policies, it's the results of his failed policies. A Conservative narrative didn’t create 2 million new illegals crossing our Southern border, Biden’s policies invited them in. A Conservative narrative isn't driving runaway inflation, Joe Biden's policies of spending staggering amounts as shown by his record $6 trillion Federal budget proposal is responsible. And so on. No doubt Biden’s PR flacks will craft glib doublespeak blaming factors outside his control or that its not really that bad or ble it on Trump or Covid. The so-called intelligent Democrats will gobble the propaganda up without question.

I am surprised at your choice of articles. It shows factional infighting amoung Democrat politicians but doesn't address the collapse of Biden support by demographic groups. There is no question the Squad members are angry but that doesn't speak to the change in the voting public.

"Democratic Rep. Rashida Tlaib of Michigan, one of the members of the progressive "squad" in the House – delivered a fiery response to Biden's State of the Union speech Tuesday night on behalf of the Working Families Party. That move angered mainstream Democrats who don't want to have to fight both Republicans and a wing of their own party when defending their narrow and imperiled majorities this fall."
 
Actually, Trump is a eugenicist.
Claiming Trump is a eugenics follower is nothing but projection. The so-called right to abortion as practiced by Planned Parenthood targets poor and minority children in keeping with founder Margaret Sanger's classic eugenics based policy of what's best for inferiors. Any questioning of the role of Planned Parenthood is greeting with vicious reprisal by Democrats.

Pre Covid the Trump economy created record low unemployment for minorities. Secured long term financial support for Black Colleges and Universities, presided over the best wage growth in a decade disportionately favoring low wage earners which are disportionately minorities.

You literally quoted the citation and just asked for it again.
 
Watched some of the MTG court video. Not only is she stupid, but seems to have a really bad memory. Alzheimer's maybe? I think the GOP must issue memory loss pills to any member that has to be questioned undwr oath? Pitiful performance

Those squad members represent the voting public.

Completely nonresponsive to the request. Where is the proof the younger demographic has rejected Biden because he is not Progressive enough? An opinion supporting your opinion isnt proof it's wishful thinking.
 
Those squad members represent the voting public.
So does Marjorie Taylor Greene but Democrats want to strike her from the ballot using an administrative procedure.

Threats of violence and insurrection against the US government are not just an administrative procedure.
