Here's part of the problem: It's called the 'Conservative' conference. They are not conservative. But the political media allow them all to get away with calling themselves that.
Now, if the political media weren't abetting treason in the interest of clickbait, we wouldn't be in this position. And in this I include 99% of the political media, especially The New York Times and The Washington Post and the major networks.
I actually posted this information on Twitter, Threads & Tribel earlier today.
My question is: Why is this kind of thing permitted to go on with no investigation? According to Oxford’s definition, it is treason: “the crime of betraying one's country, especially by attempting to kill the sovereign or overthrow the government.”
This seems to me, a lay person not a lawyer, to be planning insurrection. Openly planning to overturn the Constitution and create a state religion. Why isn’t this openly planned insurrection being prosecuted now? In 1920, Hitler published a 25 point plan - it was spelled out (in German of course) but his goals were listed. Trumplicans have Project 2025. What else do we need to know?
Unfortunately, the press seems to ignore what's going on in Texas, and yet Texas is like the bellweather for the Republicans. Whatever garbage they're planning, they're already trying it in Texas.
Extremely frightening. And I’m afraid the majority of folks are not paying attention. Nor do they have an historical reference to understand the devastating consequences.
I love how they cling to the one source that can’t be challenged, interviewed or interrogated. If “ God said it” who can verify or deny it? Easy out for lazy people willing to put their brains in hock.
Jack Posobiec is going to need a little more help than “ God” to end our democracy and replace it with the Bible. Better men have tried and better men have died.
It doesn't matter, we shall win. We do what needs to be done. We talk one on one, we write postcards, we help register new voters, we take voters to the voting station, any small thing empowers and helps. We are the sane majority, no question about it.
I had a 'conservative' on a blog today say there is no goal to create a theocracy here and then she began quoting the Bible!!! Amazing how little people know of history particularly how some groups came from Europe to escape religious repression and now these people want to create exactly what people left 200 yrs ago!
Please, every person reading Dan Rather’s comments, repeat them far and wide. The media needs to be held accountable for ignoring the continuing threats issued by these christian nationalist terrorists, magas, trumper repubs and trump himself. If we need to become the media we can and we will. Repeat, repeat, repeat
Very scary!!!! And at the root of our problems as a nation. How could this group drift so far away from out values and the country our founding fathers imagined?
Iam so scared of this election cycle that even if biden wins they will find a way to overthrow the government. Some days I feel more hopeful then others. But today I feel so scared about the future
From here in 🇨🇦 I watch in bewildered astonishment. It MUST change; it WILL change. I believe in America somehow, someway. Keeping the faith. It’s all I can do.
I'm no historian, but isn't this why the Pilgrims came to America? They wanted a life without religious tyranny? And the first amendment also addresses, separation of Church and State...
Can we regress any further? We are headed to the bottom of the barrel and it scares me.

Horrifying, outrageous, appalling. How can any normal person support this--it is the very shredding of our Constitution.
We must get out and vote them all out.

There was time when religion governed…it was called the Dark Ages.

Holding steady is hard days in like these.

Vote !
The general media has been awol.
It doesn't matter, we shall win. We do what needs to be done. We talk one on one, we write postcards, we help register new voters, we take voters to the voting station, any small thing empowers and helps. We are the sane majority, no question about it.
