If you truly believe everything you post here, then you are the reason that a lot of people have no interest in associating with you and your ilk, and why a lot of people believe this country would be better off with a peaceful split rather than the civil war that will ultimately result from this.

Unfortunately any split will not be peaceful at this point. What is even more unfortunate for the left is that they need the right more than the right needs them.

The left wants to print money and own you - the right wants to work for their money and then pay you to do the same.

The problem is that the left needs the right to make the stuff they want to give away. If the right leaves, there will be nobody left to do the actual work.

Hey, the nation's gas infrastructure is being attacked by enemies, the enemies have attacked the society's ability to work and go to school by the overblown sniffles blown up to make it seem like it's leprosy and anthrax combined, people are being shot and killed in the streets because of their skin colour, prices are rising by the day if not hour, with inflation here and hyper-inflation third-world style just around the corner, sports pastimes have been overtaken by mindless and out-of-touch demagogues who piss off their very fans so much that they won;t even watch 9and thus remove a source of steam-release, opiate for the people) .....and the idiots allegedly in "charge" can only think about erecting fake memorials to fake events that didn't happen in order to perpetuate their lies, while cities across the country are being burned down and looted by their sycophantic armies of brownshirt followers. yeah, that's a recipe for success...NOT.

Perhaps you should listen to one of the most conservative leaders in your own party who voted with Trump 97% of the time. I guess she is complete ignorance and disregards the Constitution as well in your eyes? Liz Cheney said this yesterday and was booted from her leadership role in the party for feeling this way. Incredible.

"God has blessed America, Mr. Speaker, but our freedom only survives if we protect it. If we honor our oath taken before God in this chamber to support and defend the Constitution if we recognize threats to freedom when they arise.

"Today we face a threat America has never seen before. A former president, who provoked a violent attack on this capital in an effort to steal the election, has resumed his aggressive effort to convince Americans that the election was stolen from him. He risks inciting further violence. Millions of Americans have been misled by the former president, they have heard only his words, but not the truth. As he continues to undermine our democratic process, sowing seeds of doubt about whether democracy really works at all.

"I am a conservative Republican, and the most conservative of conservative principles is reverence for the rule of law.

"The Electoral College has voted. More than 60 state and federal courts, including multiple judges the former president appointed, have rejected his claims. The Trump Department of Justice investigated the former president's claims of widespread fraud and found no evidence to support them. The election is over. That is the rule of law. That is our constitutional process. Those who refuse to accept the rulings of our courts are at war with the Constitution. Our duty is clear. Every one of us who has sworn the oath must act to prevent the unraveling of our democracy.

"This is not about policy. This is not about partisanship. This is about our duty as Americans. Remaining silent and ignoring the lie emboldens the liar. I will not participate in that. I will not sit back and watch in silence, while others lead our party down a path that abandons the rule of law and joins the former president's crusade to undermine our democracy.

"As the party of Reagan, Republicans have championed democracy, won the Cold War, and defeated the Soviet communists. Today, America is on the cusp of another Cold War, this time with Communist China. Attacks against our democratic process and the rule of law empower our adversaries and feed Communist propaganda that American democracy is a failure. We must speak the truth, our election was not stolen, and America has not failed.

Scorp, you are just straight up bat chit crazy and there is no other way of slicing it.

With regard to white supremacist groups, Merrick Garland (who was confirmed on a bi-partisan vote) stated to a Senate panel yesterday:

"The threat of lethality is higher than it ever was ... I have not seen a more dangerous threat to democracy than the invasion of the U.S. Capitol"

Is that not exactly what I stated earlier on this thread? Something I'm supposedly "bat crazy" for saying?!

White supremacist groups pose rising U.S. threat, Garland says
