  1. #SteveScalise Knows Exactly What Led to the #BourbonStreet Attack: #DEI Initiatives
    #Scalise claimed diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives bore part of the blame for #lawenforcement’s failure to disrupt attack that left 15 people dead and dozens more injured.
    “Some of these agencies have gotten so wrapped up in the DEI movement — call it #wokeness, call it whatever you want — where their main focus is on diversity and inclusion as opposed to security,” theintercept.com/2025/01/02/st

  6. Republicans appear to have completely forgone the “unity convention” theme this week in favor of a much more divisive brand:
    a total call to arms.

    In a prerecorded message to the convention Tuesday night, presumptive GOP presidential nominee Donald #Trump insisted that Democrats are
    “destroying our country,”
    and once again claimed that the 2020 election was #stolen from him, urging supporters not to let “what happened” that year happen again.

    “We must use every appropriate tool to beat the Democrats,” Trump said.
    “These people want to cheat, and they do cheat, and frankly it’s the only thing they do well.”

    In a post on Truth Social, Trump twisted an old lie into something new,
    trying to convince his base that Democrats are “attempting to interfere” in the 2024 presidential election.

    But Trump wasn’t the only Republican stoking the flames.
    In his own speech, Louisiana Representative Steve #Scalise nodded toward a white supremacist, alt-right #conspiracy known as the
    “great replacement theory”
    while baselessly advancing the idea that
    “Biden and Harris want illegals to vote.”

    House Speaker Mike #Johnson shared a similar idea, telling the conference that Republicans
    “cannot allow the many millions of illegal aliens [the Democrats] allowed to cross our borders, to harm our citizens, raid our resources, or disrupt our elections.”

    Of course, undocumented immigrants (and any other noncitizens) cannot vote in U.S. elections.
    But that didn’t stop Texas Senator Ted #Cruz
    —whose state overwhelmingly identifies as Hispanic
    —from mindlessly hopping on the bandwagon.
    “[Illegal immigration] happened because Democrats cynically decided they wanted votes from illegals more than they wanted to protect our children,” Cruz saidTuesday.

    Senate candidate Kari #Lake, who’s running to represent 2.3 million Latino voters in Arizona,
    also advanced the bold-faced lie that Democrats “voted to let the millions of people who poured into our country illegally cast a ballot in this upcoming election.”

    But few summed up the aggressive mood of the convention better than West Virginia Governor Jim #Justice,
    who told conference-goers on Tuesday that the “bottom line” for Republicans is this:
    “We become totally #unhinged if Donald Trump is not elected in November.”

  11. The U.S. #House will make a change in its schedule to consider legislation that supports #Israel and holds #Iran accountable, House Majority Leader Steve #Scalise said.

    It was unclear whether Scalise was referring to a stand-alone bill to aid Israel, or the $95 billion supplemental spending bill that includes $14 billion for Israel, in addition to $60 billion for #Ukraine, support for #Taiwan and billions of dollars in humanitarian assistance.

  16. There was the 2017 shooting of US Rep Steve #Scalise & colleagues by a #Trump detractor. There was the hammer attack on US Rep Nancy #Pelosi’s husband by a #RightWing #conspiracy theorist who sought the then House speaker in her home. Then there were #threats by #RepublicanExtremists against #Republican members of Congress for refusing to support their preferred candidate for speaker. These acts grabbed headlines & spurred increases in #security for federal ofcls.

  21. So a lot of people, self included, had fun watching the turn into the Kilkenny Cats the last 3+ weeks. Funny, right?

    Except not. Because now it's clear who owns the GOP. It was his gang that got booted out, and then made it clear would not be it, and that put forward and then sank in hours. And it was his gang that got his fervent ally, Mike Johnson, through UNANIMOUSLY.

    IS the Party, and vice-versa. God help us all.
