Turning The Ballot Box Against Republicans

Not until they stop their terrorism.

There is nothing wrong with putting sanctions on terrorists.

So calling someone names mean you can break any agreement you might care to
with them?

Our word should have no meaning at all?

"Sanctions" like, taking their guns away?



Homegrown "republican" terrorists...

I'm unsure what you are referring to when you speak of "calling someone names".

You know, like when you call people liars when they disagree with you.

I've never done such a thing. I only call people liars when they actually lie.

And what does my correctly calling someone a liar have to do with Trump breaking the Iran agreement?

It's name calling, you just want to call people names because they know you are a dork.

Liar.

I will be reporting you for namecalling everytime I see you call me or anyone else a liar.

I'd think it would be less effort to simply start telling the truth.

Oh, it’s no trouble at all reporting you. But thanks for your concern.

Whenever you call someone a liar, it's a lie.

You're lying again.

I suppose dishonorable people might find it easiest to engage in lies, spout name-calling, and file abuse reports.

Those of us with ethics and integrity find it a lot easier to just tell the truth.

Everything you said there is a lie.

You probably report posts so many times they just ignore you. I know I would. Now should you be reported for threatening Oralloy?

And what you report seems to be no trouble for Oralloy because he is still here. But thanks for pointing out just how ineffective you truly are.

Booker is trying to mainstream hate. What other reason is there to validate Farrakhan by talking with him. Not that the Left has not mainstreamed hate already.

Farrakhan will say nothing different than he already has. A meeting with Booker only gives credibility to this hater. Pandering is getting dangerous.

Oregon Republican Party mocks armed militia threat, despite capitol building being closed due to armed militia threat
Right-wing backlash against ambitious climate bill raises fears of violence

Oregon's Republican Party appears to have made light of right-wing threats made against politicians in the state stemming from opposition to planned climate change legislation.

Oregon’s state capitol was forced to close at the weekend due to a “possible militia threat” against legislators.

On Sunday the Oregon GOP Twitter account posted a photograph of peaceful protesters at the building.

“Heavily armed militia lays siege to Oregon’s Capitol as Senate Democrats cower in fear,” the party tweeted, apparently mocking the threats of harm to politicians.

Democrats in the coastal state are hoping to pass landmark climate legislation which would dramatically reduce fossil fuel emissions in Oregon by 2050.

But the bill has stalled after Republican lawmakers walked out of the legislature in an attempt to deny the Democrats, the majority party, enough votes to proceed.

Several fled the state to avoid the vote, leading Kate Brown, the governor, to order police officers to track them down.

Under the proposed law, Oregon would put an overall limit on greenhouse gas emissions and auction off pollution “allowances”.

Those opposed to the plan say it would exacerbate a growing divide between the liberal and urban parts of Oregon.

The state Democrats have a majority of 18 to 12, but require a quorum of 20 to proceed.

The bill has already passed the state House.

A group of local Republicans were set to protest inside the Capitol on 23 June when lawmakers were present, and anti-government groups threatened to join, prompting the statehouse shutdown.

“The Oregon State Police has recommended that the Capitol be closed tomorrow due to a possible militia threat,” a spokesperson for Senate president Peter Courtney said on Friday.

The governors’ office also confirmed the threats.

Lawmakers in Oregon have previously grappled with the danger of militias.

One of the groups set to join Saturday’s protest, the Oregon Three Percenters, joined an armed takeover of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge in 2016.

Dozens of people occupied the remote Oregon refuge for more than a month to protest federal control of Western lands.

The standoff began to unravel when authorities fatally shot the group’s spokesperson and arrested key leaders as they headed to a community meeting.

The Oregon Republican Party’s tweet attracted outrage online, with many condemning the tone of the post.

“Oregon GOP endorses domestic terrorism. There’s your headline,” wrote Tyler Huffman, a Twitter user, in reply to the post.

“I have to think this tweet will be deleted when the grown-ups see it,” said Ben M Schorr, in another reply.

Democrats planned to return to the capitol on Monday.

It is unclear if the state Republicans will continue their walkout in an attempt to derail the climate change legislation.

If passed the proposed legislative package would be only the second of its kind in the US, after California passed a similar bill in 2013.
