Republican Glenn Youngkin WINS in Virginia, Republican Also Winning in NJ at Midnight

It wouldn't be so bad if you didn't accuse everyone of that who doesn't dance a jig every time Lindsay Graham is reelected.

Show me the money. Please find the post in which I've done that. Put up or shut up.

This tool is no more a blank slate than Trump was. Anyone with eyes in his head could see Trump was a connected, crooked panderer and it's nearly as obvious about this guy.

As for "sending a message", I watched GOP voters broadcast their disapproval over abortion for 48 years without ever even once holding one single politician's feet to the fire over the issue. What did that accomplish?

Democrats weeping...

2021 Is on Track to Become the Most Devastating Antiabortion State Legislative Session in Decades

Right-wing ideologues are engaging in a shock and awe campaign against abortion rights that is largely getting lost against the background of a broader attack on other basic rights, including a wave of voter suppression laws and attacks on LGBTQ people.

The number of abortion restrictions—and specifically bans on abortion designed to directly challenge Roe v. Wade and the U.S. constitutional right to abortion—that have swiftly been enacted over the past five months is unprecedented. If this trend continues, 2021 will end up as the most damaging antiabortion state legislative session ever.

Tallying the Damage in 2021 so Far
Since January, there have been 561 abortion restrictions, including 165 abortion bans, introduced across 47 states (all counts current as of June 7, 2021). A whopping 83 of those restrictions have been enacted across 16 states, including 10 bans.

For the haters....

I was proud to endorse Glenn Youngkin. His win tonight is a clear and much needed signal for personal freedom and that parents are the deciders of their children’s education and future. - Rand Paul

Jfc dude, why do I need to remind anyone that Rand endorsed flip-flop fucking Romney while Ron was still an active candidate?

Rand has done some good but his endorsement means less than nothing.

Hyperbole for me but not for thee?

So does excoriating those that participate in the "left/right paradigm politics." It means less than nothing because it accomplishes less than nothing. But, do you, man. Do you.

And to be clear I ACTUALLY VOTED FOR YOUNGKIN, but not because I feel anything for him that comes within an astronomical unit of liking him.

I voted for him because I've been told for the last couple years that I'm a bad person and we ahould give political power to people who will come after me.

And thousands of others did too, but at no point will any of the rest of them stop to process how 'illegal immigrants' vote the way they do for the exact same reason.

There's very little to be happy about in VA today. Relieved, sure. But not happy.

 

[phill4paul]

...all the way to the bank.

So all these pushes for abortion bans are a fart in the wind after you made a big deal about them? Who's behind those laws being enacted? Marxists or Republicans?

YES!!!

Why can't you figure that out?

And there you have it. A repudiation of those that that said you are a bad person. What's NOT to be happy about? Good job. It warms the heart to have an American citizen exercise his conscious. Good job!

 

[phill4paul]

YES!!!

Why can't you figure that out?

Why can't you be more obtuse? And answer the question. Marxists or Republicans?

ALL OF THE FUCKING ABOVE!

The fact that you're dense does not make me obtuse.

 

[RJB]

WTF are you talking about? I KNOW it's "merely changing the window dressing"... didn't you read me say that like 5 times??

And what the fuck does the governor of VA have to do with war-making?? You're getting high off your own supply, dude.

How many times do I need to say "incrementally", and "buying time"??

Jeezus sometimes this movement is desperate to be ineffectual.


ETA: What do you want us to do, devil21? What's your plan? Because I'm getting tired of the "plan" being let's see how many angels can dance on the head of a needle.

This is what's at the heart of this contention in this thread. Yes there are Democrat and Republican operatives on this forum, but A Son Of Liberty, Phil, AF, me, etc. aren't them. To tell us that we are falling for a politician when we aren't is ridiculous. We know politicians are corrupt. We know we are getting divided, BUT seeing the parents rise up at the school board meetings to protest the marxist indoctrination that divides us was inspiring. To see a state break with the state party to vote against McCaulif who said that parents shouldn't have a say was awesome. We a facing a marxist revolution. I am as dreamy for a libertarian utopia as anyone here, but I will gladly take status quo for now over what happened in Maoist China, Soviet Russia, etc. That's what they are shooting for.

On top of that, there is one party that is definitely trying to stop me from earning a living to feed my kids. The other one is wishy washy but at the worst they are neither for nor against me. I will go with the guys who ignore me as I try to keep my head above water rather than the bastards trying to step on my head.

You asked about abortion and holding feet to the fire. I posted a evidence regarding Republican gains on anti-abortion legislation. I asked you if it were Marxists or Republicans that passed this legislation. You claim all the above. And you call me dense.

Go fuck yourself. I've really had it with your bullshit.

Don't want to vote? Then fucking sit it out. Just quit bitching at others that choose to.

I owe you a rep.

Fucks sake, just that alone should be enough.

The Marxist left/Biden/Democrats have destroyed energy producers, are imposing massive new regulations on truckers in the middle of supply chain crisis, are mandating that we all get jabbed with an unsafe and ineffective "vaccine", are on record as supporting wholesale gun bans, are inflating at rate three times that at which the Great Cheeto did, and have launched the forces of the federal government and law enforcement directly at me head by calling my and my family the greatest threat to the nation.

That's just off the top of my head.

Yeah, I'll settle for the status quo at this point as well.

 

[Ender]

Do any of you have any idea who Youngkin is? He just "retired" as CEO from the Carlyle Group. If you don't know who they are, I'd advise doing some research.

Do you have any idea the millions of deaths that Marxist ideology brings to a nation? I suggest that you research that.

He's an unknown at this point. Never held office. Yes, he made a fortune with the Carlyle Group. Yes, we know what the Carlyle Group is.

Do you know what his public statements are concerning his positions. I do. Just wondering if you did?

 

[belian78]

Ron Paul is an R.

Thomas Massie is an R.

Rand Paul is an R.

Shem Kellogg was an R.

Glenn Bradley is an R.

I could go on...but is that true of all those men?

That's one of the reasons why freedom folks find themselves frustrated at political action...we refuse to take a victory and run with it.

Our enemies have no problem doing that.

Shem, Glenn and Ron all took the position of 'if we didn't run R we would have no voice at all'. I wouldn't call that an endorsement of the Republican party. We have to stop playing divide and conquer games. At current, our entire political system is corrupt to the root. Alternate societies and local conglomerates should be everyone's focus, not trying to 'beat the other team' and yelling 'let's go brandon!' cause it's cool.

 

[belian78]

I am aware that your average Christian does not behave like Jesus. I also know the average politician is not Ron Paul, but when one party is pushing for a Marxist revolution now, I will be glad when a majority of the population says no by voting for an imperfect candidate who also says no.

Life is no fun if you go through it as high strung as as a house cat on methamphetamines.

The continual 'lesser of two evils' still stays within the controller's paradigm. Walk completely away and start building your local society from the ground up.
