Joyce Vance looks at what Alabama Republican senator Turbeville is doing, holding up more than 250 military promotions and, as of yesterday, causing the Marines to be without a Senate-confirmed commandant. Tuberville opposes the military's policy permitting enlistees to access reproductive health care of ouf state when necessary.
Republicans as a party supporting the military? Hardly, she concludes.

@wdlindsy My greatest disappointment is that true followers of Jesus are not organizing and marching in the streets against Donald Beelzebub Trump who has corrupted everything that Jesus is reported to have stood for. That average Christians could sit back and ignore this threat in hopes of achieving a Christian Theocracy in the USS as in “oh he his good for Christianity” WTF?? Is he righteous? Hell NO! Open your damn eyes. 🤬

"Trump supporters are consolidating around the former president and so-called Christian democracy. They are enforcing loyalty so tightly that the far-right House Freedom Caucus recently expelled Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) either because she is too close to House speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) or because she called Representative Lauren Boebert (R-CO) a 'little bitch' on the floor of Congress, or both."

http://calendar.eji.org/racial-injustice/jul/11 In South Carolina, where 55 Council chapters were active by July 1956, 17 Black parents were fired or evicted from their farms within two weeks of signing a pro-integration petition in the small town of Elloree. In Yazoo County, Mississippi, when 53 Black residents signed an NAACP petition for integration, the local Council published their names in a newspaper ad, leading to harassment, firing, and credit cancellation. In the end, all signers removed their names from the petition and the Yazoo County NAACP disbanded.

@AlliFlowers More investigation would be needed. It’s a guess at this point.

Interesting results. Either the fediverse is healthier than the world in general, or the responses were way too limited.

It ought to be stunning that #Alabama’s contract review committee on Thursday reapproved 26 deals paying up to $14.9 million to one lawyer – Bill Lunsford – to defend the state’s disgraceful prison system.

@wdlindsy Today’s rogue, lawless, end justifies the means GOP politics. The end? Win at all costs They saw where a substantial % of their base went, #Trump orbit and they followed. The Joint Chiefs told Donny to stuff it in 2020 regarding Marshall Law and the Justice Dept attacking #TheHeadCrook is insufferable. A lot of them hate his guts because he is destroyed the GOP as it existed before the pestilence, but they are now tied to his bed face down serving at his pleasure. 😳
