RNC says Jan. 6 rioters engaged in "legitimate political discourse"

The Dems say they don’t care about voting rights. The Republicans can do as they wish to win the next election

Sounds like that’s the side you’re rooting for,
and that’s what the GOP and their boosters are hoping for.

I’m still hoping Democrats get a grip, and that We The People do something to retain what democracy and voting rights we still possess. While others seem to be resigned to rolling over for the Republican Totalitarians and simply giving up.

No gripping required as the Dems have let go. All bets are off for voter suppression next election

RESOLUTION TO FORMALLY CENSURE LIZ CHENEY AND ADAM KINZINGER
AND TO NO LONGER SUPPORT THEM AS MEMBERS OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY

WHEREAS, The primary mission of the Republican Party is to elect Republicans who support the United States Constitution and share our values;

WHEREAS The Biden Administration and Democrats in Congress have embarked on a systematic effort to replace liberty with socialism; eliminate border security in favor of lawless, open borders create record inflation designed to steal the American dream from our children and grandchildren; neuter our national defense and a peace through strength foreign policy; replace President Trump’s “ Operation Warp Speed” with incompetence and illegal mandates; and destroy America’s economy the Green New Deal;

WHEREAS, Winning back the majority in Congress, including the United States House of Representatives, in 2022 must be the primary goal of the House Republican Conference requires all Republicans working together to accomplish the same;

When ethics, rule of law, fair play, civility, sense of community, sense of our mutual humanity die and winning is all that matters any more - people turn into monsters.

WHEREAS , The Conference must design the strategy to stop the radical Biden agenda and retire Nancy Pelosi, tasks which require that all Republicans pull in the same direction ;

WHEREAS, The Conference must not be sabotaged by Representatives Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger who have demonstrated, with actions and words, that they support Democrat efforts to destroy President Trump more than they support winning back a Republican majority in 2022;

WHEREAS, Representatives Cheney and Kinzinger have engaged in actions in their positions as members of the January 6th Select Committee not befitting Republican members of Congress, which include the Committee’s disregard for minority rights, traditional checks and balances, due process, and adherence to other precedent and rules of the U.S. House and which seem intent on advancing a political agenda to buoy the Democrat Party’s bleak prospects in the upcoming midterm elections;

WHEREAS, Congressional Republicans bear ultimate responsibility for their own success or failure and the RNC supports their efforts by denouncing those who deliberately jeopardize victory in November on which the future of our constitutional republic depends at this critical moment in history;

WHEREAS, Representatives Cheney and Kinzinger purport to be members of the Republican Party; and

WHEREAS, Representatives Cheney and Kinzinger are participating in a Democrat-led persecution of ordinary citizens engaged in legitimate political discourse, and they are both utilizing their past professed political affiliation to mask Democrat abuse of prosecutorial power for partisan purposes, therefore, be it RESOLVED ,

That the Republican National Committee hereby formally censures Representatives Liz Cheney of Wyoming and Adam Kinzinger of Illinois and shall immediately cease any and all support of them as members of the Republican Party for their behavior which has been destructive to the institution of the U.S. House of Representatives, the Republican Party and our republic, and is inconsistent with the position of the Conference.

For me, the end of this thing will be when the dotard goes to prison for the rest of his life, of which he doesn’t have much left. Of course, this imprisonment would include his cronies going to prison too, but the end of story will be when he’s behind bars for all he did. Aside from that, I could care less about what the RNC says, because they’re crooks too.

Cheney in bed with voter suppression laws. Nothing less for the daughter of a mass murderer

Are you trying to make a point?

YEH!!! you are missing the point

That’s why I’m asking you to explain it.

Cheney loves voter suppression laws and is your standard reactionary corporate stooge politican.

Peasants - lend me your ears. There is nothing else happening in the world

This won’t interest you 69, but it seems to me that it belongs in this thread to help fill in the picture a little more.

Last week the Republican National Committee (RNC) made clear that it would rather be the “Big Lie” party than the “Big Tent” party by condemning two principled elected leaders while condoning conspiracies, lies, and violent insurrection. By censuring Congresswoman Liz Cheney and Congressman Adam Kinzinger for their role in investigating the January 6th attacks, they have betrayed the GOP’s founding principles and ceded control of a once-great movement to grifters and extremists. The RNC has also signaled that it no longer welcomes people of conscience.

The RNC’s description of the January 6th insurrection as “legitimate political discourse” is an affront to the rule of law, peaceful self-government, and the constitutional order. There can be no justifying the horrific attack that day, and we condemn the Committee for excusing the actions of men and women who battered police officers, ransacked our nation’s Capitol, called for hanging the Vice President of the United States, and sought to overturn a free and fair election.

History will mark this censure as a turning point for the RNC – a time of choosing between civility and patriotism, on the one hand, and conspiracy and political violence on the other. We stand firmly for the first set of values. We stand proudly next to principled leaders such as Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger. And we stand united against efforts to defile our democracy.

RENEW AMERICA MOVEMENT - ABOUT RAM

We are majority makers, the millions of men and women who are tired of radicalism in our politics and ready for reform. At RAM, we are deepening America’s “pro-democracy bench” in three ways:

People . We are supporting principled Democrats, Republicans, and Independents who have the courage to stand up to political extremists in races across the country.

Policy . We are advancing policies needed for a healthy democracy, such as the protection of voting rights.

Process . We are investing in reforms to the democratic process itself to increase competition and choice in American elections.

By working together across party lines, we can shift the balance of power in Washington, DC away from those who want to dismantle democracy’s guardrails and back to real leaders who will put country over party.

We are not just Democrats or Republicans or Independents. We are Renewers.

And we welcome you to join the fight.

Because nothing else is of interest to you. Yawn.

Please stop trying to shoe horn me into your fiction.

and so on and so forth.

This is your go to. Other side issues are just as boring - non working class matters. Even your climate change postings doesn’t touch on the political road blocks for action.

Just saying

Why should they at this point? The problem is much deeper, it’s about our fundamental expectations. That’s where we’ve gone wrong, it’s the roots to the real “road blocks for action.”

Besides, I’ve tried plenty, given my particular talents and experiences.

Cc’s Elevator Pitch

We The People have a moral ethical right - along with a pragmatic need - to learn what scientists have learned about this planet’s biosphere and climate engine without constant dishonest crossfire.

We should not tolerate serious scientists always being drown out by amoral, dishonest and frankly ignorant arguments - that an astoundingly ruthless PR factory repeats over and over again, without ever learning a damned thing from the evidence in front of us.

I’m also looking for someone to reach out to me, perhaps even hire me - to do some research and writing, and to help this effort achieve a greater audience - an editor, agent, interested other. Someone who gets what I’ve been trying to do here and thinks it deserves a bit of help.

Drop me a line @ citizenschallenge at gmail.com

69, you’re in no position to judge me, so why not relax try to learn a thing or two.

A really hate narcissists

I don’t think you grasp what a narcissist is.
You’re just pissed off that I’ve got more living and learning in me than you do.
Relax.
