Why are Republicans embracing authoritarian Russia and China rather than supporting our longtime democratic allues?

Former Republican Presidents Ronald Reagan and George HW Bush are just rolling over in their graves; they may also lurch from it in a fit of incredulous rage. This is a remarkable and potentially catastrophic reversal by a political party that is in a state of near-total, frequently random ideological decomposition.

POTUS Joe Biden has done a remarkable job. We have a GOP majority Congress, the do-nothing US House of Representatives. 

They are essentially dysfunctional, filled with nasty little trolls who serve only their interests. Our Supreme Court has been deliberately rigged to support the rich and the corporations they control, as well as keep women in a second-class status.

The thin GOP majority gets even thinner now that Republicans are down three seats, which means the new speaker can only afford to lose two votes on any measure.

The razor-thin majority presents an enormous challenge for the Republicans, leaving him them almost no room for error as they navigate demands from competing wings of his party.

Ron not only backed down but he also sat down and then pulled out of the three way race for The Republican party nomination.

Ron should be forced to carry his cam pain to term. Also, when his accounting books are published, they should be made public and then be banned. Nikki Haley happens to be the last real Republican man standing in the GOP three way race for the Republican presidential nomination.

GOP IOWA CAUCUS

Criminal defendant, rapist, financial and moral fraud wins in Iowa.

For a few years, most of the world suffered through the psychological and economic devastation of the pandemic. Average workers emerged – quite remarkably – in almost the same shape as before the Covid-19 virus hit.

But that shape wasn’t all that great. Economic inequality remains quite terrible. Wage increases are only recently (and barely) outstripping inflation. And people are as angry at corporate elites, politicians and institutions of all kinds as they’ve ever been. Labor union support is soaring.

All this helps explain why former President Donald Trump romped to victory in the frigid Iowa GOP caucuses yesterday despite barely running a campaign in the state and skipping all the debates.
