  • America Needs a "Right to Vote," as Georgia Proves Jim Crow Never Completely Ended

    Thom plus logo The right to vote is more important then owning property or guns

    This week, Georgia passed the most restrictive voter suppression legislation since Jim Crow. In actuality, the Georgia legislature proves that Jim Crow never completely ended. It's alive and well today, in part, and its principal proponent is the GOP.

    Now that "conservative ideas" have been so badly discredited, Republicans are resorting back to Big Lie and faux outrage techniques to try to hold their base together.

    Normally when over a half-million people die from something entirely preventable somebody is held accountable. So far, that hasn't happened in the United States.
  • GOP Uses Dr. Seuss To Distract From Their Embrace of Gangster Capitalism

    Thom plus logo Cranking up the culture wars won't stop the destruction of our democracy…but it might win elections

    So, while the Senate was debating Joe Manchin's proposal to cut back unemployment benefits to Americans whacked by the coronavirus, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy was reading Dr. Seuss out loud.

  • A "Jimmy Stewart Filibuster" Would Pass HR 1 & Save American Democracy

    Thom plus logo HR1, the For The People Act, is probably the most consequential piece of legislation of the century. Consequential, at least, in the positive sense: with GOP voter suppression efforts spreading across the country, the future of both the Democratic Party and democracy itself is on the line.

    Thom plus logo Americans "have got to know" if our last president conspired to commit treason and murder to end American democracy.

    Did Donald Trump and some of the people around him conspire to have others murder the Vice President and Speaker of the House in order to hold power and conceal his crimes for another four years?

    Time and evidence will eventually prove or disapprove that question, but the evidence before us right now is pretty grim.
