"In all 7 states where abortion has been on the ballot since #RoeVWade fell, voters have... supported protecting #abortion rights...
That has led some #Republicans... to target the ballot initiative process, a form of direct #democracy...
“Thank goodness that most of the states in this country don’t allow you to put everything on the ballot because pure democracies are not the way to run a country,” said Rick Santorum"

This is exactly the message we need right now:

Epilogue:
While applicability re: POTUS is a matter for the courts to decide, it is undeniably clear that Cruz, Lee, Jordan, Greene, Biggs, Gosar, etc. clearly provided “aid and comfort” to the insurrection and as such should be barred from holding public office.

From the "It Was Never About Zionism" Dept., in partnership with the "I Can't Possibly Be Antisemitic Some Of My Best Friends Are Jewish" Dept.: “A bomb squad is called to a Satmar Hassidic synagogue in Lakewood, New Jersey after a grenade was found strapped to a utility pole nearby, according to local reports.”

My uncle says the architects got rid of the front porches because they didn't look well. But my uncle says that was merely rationalizing it; the real reason, hidden underneath, might be they didn't want people sitting like that, doing nothing, rocking, talking; that was the wrong kind of social life. People talked too much. And they had time to think. So they ran off with the porches. And the gardens, too. - Ray Bradbury, “Fahrenheit 451”
