How Has the Right Wing Takeover of the GOP and the Media Changed America?
By Thom Hartmann A...
On Tucker Carlson's show, David Horowitz said, "The creation of America was probably the greatest gift given to Black people in 3,000 years..." He added that "the people who hate America on the left, and this embraces so much of the Democratic Party these days, have conducted a 50-year, 60-year attack on Christianity in this country."What is the impact on our country and our young people of this kind of racism and use of religion for partisan purposes? Where does this kind of rhetoric from Fox and rightwing hate radio take our nation? How do you see this playing out? And what will it take to get us back to the values that we once embraced of "E Pluribus Unum" or "Out of many, one," and the notion of the Founders that there should be a "wall of separation between church and state"?

Thom's Blog is providing a daily platform for an unholy threesome trying to convince themselves, falsely, of their own righteousness -- Trump trolls spreading lies and hate; unrepentant racists and religious bigots betrayed by empty words and lack of moral conscience:

The problem is that the party of death in congress has done absolutely nothing about the immigration invasion/problem. After all, they will condone anything if they think it is to their political advantage. And the repubs are not much better.
They should all be impeached for dereliction of duty for not protecting this country. Trump's repeated calls for congress to do something to fix the illegal immigration crisis are right on the mark.

Lets review...shall we?
Collusion? Not according to a too long investigation by Mueller. Economy collapsing? Hardly, with wages and employment up and the stock market at an all time high. If you have a 401K account, send Trump a thank you note. Trump's poll numbers are up and match Obama's at the same time in their terms. And he is likely to be the first president since WW II not to start a conflict somewhere. Emoluments trouble? Trump just won a lawsuit in connection to that challenge. He has also put two judges on the Supreme Court.
Now let us consider the presidential candidates from the party of death (they used to be called the democrats). Most are advocating doing away with employer based health insurance, even though the vast majority of american citizens who have them like them. The party of death advocates for open borders and free healthcare for illegal immigrants. Or how about publicly funded abortions for trans men? Thats a good one. Does anyone remember "safe, legal, and rare"? And don't forget reparations for the black community. Gun confiscation is always on the list for the death party too. I don't know why they even bother with all of this since they think the world is coming to an end tomorrow due to climate change.
Now think about this. Donald Trump has now emerged as the safe candidate in the upcoming election at least as compared to Harris, Pocahontas, Sanders, Spartacus, etc. Why do you think Biden still leads the polls? Because he at least appears somewhat normal as compared to the death party candidates. I wonder though if Obama knew Joe was a racist. Oh well, every white person is now a racist so Joe really can't help it.
Think about how screwed up the democratic party has now become that they make the Donald appear as the level headed person.

Good Wednesday HotCoffee. I had a great Mon and Tues working with kids 8-16 with handicaps. Mostly missing limbs and a few in wheelchairs for life. They were warming up for national para Olympics events in a variety of sports including track, field, archery and shooting sports. We held the airgun matches at our range and I have never been so inspired in my life. Nothing but smiles and laughter from these polite young kids.
Let's hope the leftie/socialists haven't yet figured out they have fallen into Trump's trap. Useful idiots like Hatrmann, Miller, and the like continue with their stupid "everything republican is racist"
Hoot of the day, Trump's popularity is growing since the leftie/socialist media misquoted Trump's tweet over and over.
In other news,
Beetooo is done. BETO BOTTOMS OUT: O’Rourke at 0% in New Hampshire poll — was at 6.4% in April!
Bernie is running out of fereeshit to offer, Sanders losing the ‘Bern’ in New Hampshire: poll
Democrat ‘Doomsday Scenario’ as Campaign Funds Evaporate
Anxiously waiting for Hatrmann's youtube video on the leftie/socialist activist that attacked the Tacoma, WA ICE center.
The disassembling of the democrat party 101:
Thank you to the Stephanie Miller's and Thom Hatrmann's of the world. You are the best ally the Republican party could ever recruit.
Lord help me as I am running out of popcorn.

Sorry HotCoffee, I just read the title of Hatrmann's blog.
"How Has the Right Wing Takeover of the GOP and the Media Changed America?"
The right wing media? WTF is he talking about?

Hi Diane,
Sounds like a great way to spend the last 2 days, I would have enjoyed being there.
The debt ceiling needs to be raised.
Spending appropriations bills need to be resolved.
Immigration laws need to be fixed.
The border is in crisis.
Infrastructure spending needs to be resolved.
The USMCA needs to be ratified.
Health care is a mess.
Forget all those issues that matter…. what does House Speaker Nancy Pelosi do?
Why, stop everything so she can advance a resolution to prove her squad doesn’t like President Trump.
Should be an interesting rally in NC today....
better get more popcorn!
AND last but not least...
Recall California Governor Gavin Newsom! Make California Great Again.
Right here!

Enjoy!!

Hey HotCoffee, I think anyone would have been inspired working with those kids yesterday. One of the girls worked with lad two prosthetic legs above the knee, and one arm gone just below her elbow. She never stopped smiling the entire two days she was at our range. She has shot a precision air rifle only once in her life but managed to finish in second place. Today she is competing in Track, swimming, and ping pong.
As for Pelosi's nephew, I see no way he will be recalled. I believe what will will go on in CA is the continual migration of taxpayers and corporations to other states leaving the burdens on the remaining. unfunded liabilities alone approaches $1 TRILLION. Notice the alt-lefties never talk about that.
Just in from one of your websites I would like to discuss with Mr. Hatrmann,
Alexandria Ocashew-Cortex Claims Democrats Conquered the Moon and Gave You Electricity
That woman is a waste of skin.
Maybe later

After reviewing those right news outlets CNN and MSNBC (ha..ha), there was barely any mention of the real news from yesterday. Did you hear? 137 democrats voted against impeaching Trump. I thought they couldn't wait to impeach him. Thom must be in tears.
Did you hear? The hush money case investigation was dropped by the district attorneys in NY. I guess I missed that on CNN. I thought Trump was definitely going to jail over this. The talking heads said so.
The only news being broadcast today is the "send her back" chant from the Trump rally. Apparently Trump has tried to say he was against it (Wink...wink). I'm sure the talking heads on those right wing news shows on CNN and MSNBC will be saying that this is now the end of Trump.
Funny, but the earlier chants of "lock her up" at the Trump rallies only seemed to boost the Donald. Of course, it was about Hillary. So never mind...

Mueller's favorite place to pray (written about in "Prophet's Way"), and the roof of the room where the Last Supper is reputed to have happened.
From Cracking the Code:
"Thom Hartmann ought to be bronzed. His new book sets off from the same high plane as the last and offers explicit tools and how-to advice that will allow you to see, hear, and feel propaganda when it's directed at you and use the same techniques to refute it. His book would make a deaf-mute a better communicator. I want him on my reading table every day, and if you try one of his books, so will you."
From Unequal Protection, 2nd Edition:
"If you wonder why and when giant corporations got the power to reign supreme over us, here’s the story."
From Screwed:
"I think many of us recognize that for all but the wealthiest, life in America is getting increasingly hard. Screwed explores why, showing how this is no accidental process, but rather the product of conscious political choices, choices we can change with enough courage and commitment. Like all of Thom’s great work, it helps show us the way forward."
Gee Thom, I guess the right wants to stop sh*t like this....But Nancy & Gavin are too busy....kissing Butt.... why? You didn't mention AOC has an invitation to spend an hour on Hannity anytime and make her case....after her boyfriend writes her opinion for her.
LOS ANGELES (CBSLA) – Nearly two-dozen Mara Salvatrucha (MS-13) gang members who operate in the San Fernando Valley have been charged with a series of ruthless murders, some of which involved hacking people to death with machetes in the Angeles National Forest.
(CBS2)
The 22 suspects were indicted by a grand jury last week on charges of committing and/or coordinating the murders of seven people over the past two years, according to a federal RICO indictment unsealed Monday.
Plenty more @ the link.

Here are your poor little children at the border.....take a peek democrats... this is your future.
Sadly I have to confess I voted for these people for many years...that thought is very humbling.
And shame on you Thom for promoting this with your daily hatred of Trump whom with the slightest help from congress could stop much of it.
Guess you live behind a wall with a locked door.
