The filing .. pointed to Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost’s comments in an October 2023 legal analysis in which he said the “Heartbeat Act,” as its supporters called the six-week ban, “would not exist if Issue 1 passes.”
At first glance, these majorities might suggest that Ohio is around 70% Republican. But in statewide elections, the outcome is often much closer (to 50/50)
Trump and the GOP partly don’t want to solve this issue because it’s an incredibly potent vehicle for racist propaganda and electoral strategy. Part of the allure of this topic is that it’s very easy to message on in bad faith, replete with blatant disinformation, because it can’t actually be “solved” and thus, it’s the gift that keeps on giving.

"Trump needs the Russians. His base is shrinking. He’s alienating “that female independent suburban voter.” He can’t adjust, won’t adjust. He doesn’t care about problems enough to solve them."

PFLAG National states that it would be required to disclose Texas trans youth members, including "complete names, Social Security numbers, dates of birth, jobs, home addresses, telephone numbers, [and] email addresses."
And in exchange, will they get a little pink triangle to wear? You know, just to show they're in compliance..

"Theologian Reinhold Niebuhr once described propaganda in a democracy as “emotionally potent oversimplifications” peddled to the masses, and that’s precisely what Carlson’s videos seem to provide."
"Whatever a fence sitter, undecided, or disgruntled Democrat or other member of Biden’s 2020 electoral coalition who is angry at him over a specific policy may think and feel, there is no issue where Donald Trump will be a real improvement."

Fun fact apropos of nothing: when Hitler came into power democratically it took him like 3 months to dismantle democracy completely and there were no new elections for 17 years.
He came into power after earlier starting an insurrection. State institutions and government failed to ban him from future elections.
"Let me say it plainly - Donald Trump is not ahead in the 2024 election. He is not beating Joe Biden. He is not in a strong position. Signs of Trumpian and broader GOP weakness is all out there for folks to see - if they want to see it."

Republicants want to indoctrinate our children with partisan rhetoric. Ludicrous when the failures of capitalism can be plainly seen all around us.
