Republican Judges Are Quietly Upending Public Health Laws
A catastrophic sequence of decisions has blocked states from responding to the pandemic.
Alongside growing controversy over judicial nominations, court reform and Covid-19 policies, American law is in the midst of a little-noticed paradigm shift in courts’ treatment of public health measures.
The Republican Party’s campaign to take over the federal and state courts is quietly upending a long and deeply embedded tradition of upholding vital public health regulations. The result has been a radically novel and potentially catastrophic sequence of decisions blocking state responses to the coronavirus pandemic.
For centuries, American constitutional law granted state governments broad public health powers. “Salus populi suprema lex,” the old saying went: The health of the people is the supreme law. Such authority went back to the beginning of the Republic. In the famous 1824 case of Gibbons v. Ogden, Chief Justice John Marshall defended the “acknowledged power of a State to provide for the health of its citizens.” States, he explained, were empowered to enact “inspection laws, quarantine laws” and “health laws of every description.”

Harris County tried to make voting easier during the pandemic. Texas Republicans fought every step of the way.
The GOP obvious voter suppression tactics are just pissing voters off. Has been record early voting the first 3 days so far in the Houston area. I mean the GOP cannot be any more clear they want to limit the votes of minorities with a plethora of obvious suppression tactics.
Add to that the devastatingly inept GOP Governor overruling and causing more death and businesses to close with the terrible COVID response. Opened way too early, undermined the local leaders and county judges that wanted stricter social distancing, and mask ordinances . Then when cases got out of control as predicted this summer had to back off and shut down again.
Texas may not go blue yet as a state even though the major cities all are. But it will eventually as the GOP keeps disgusting people.

Luckily you'll only have to put up with the "fuckin', trashy, anti-democracy, Republican asshole motherfuckers" for four more years. Then you can relax after 2024. lolololololololololololololololololololololololol.

Wow, someone learned how to use bold and italics ... impressive.
Déjà vu plus vindication for the OP as the RNC presented no party platform for 2020 and continues to regurgitate propanda, e.g. "politics of fear nonsense", from the Obama era.
Why Republicans didn’t write a platform for their convention this year
Excerpt
The Republican Party took an unusual approach to writing its convention platform for 2020: It decided not to write one.
Rather, the GOP is reusing its platform from four years ago, which was written before Donald Trump became president. That means Republican delegates will not go through the usual process of deliberating over policies and principles to determine what the party stands for in 2020, as Democrats recently did.
Why should they bother? It’s whatever HE says whatever he and Fox and Friends is raging over that day.
Watched this forum for a couple years now. Thought I should finally chime in. Fuck Trump.
It's a good start, I second that and add put his orange ass in jail!

Eww!... Do you think he "orange-bronzes" his ass, too?...
Maybe so, with his left hand, while he's on his stained, porcelain throne, Tweeting, with his right hand.

So, sorry!... I apologize to all, for any "visuals" I might have created by my post, above... I hope that it will not cause any new nightmares for you, tonight.

Republicans have declared war on democracy itself
If you were gripped by a particularly naive hopefulness, you might have thought that President Trump’s defeat in the 2020 election would produce a brief moment of honesty and responsibility from the Republican Party. “We lost, and it hurts,” they might have said. “But let’s handle it like adults and show that we’re committed to democracy.”
Officials at agencies across the government who had prepared briefing books and carved out office space for the incoming Biden team to use as soon as this week were told instead that the transition would not be recognized until the Democrat’s election was confirmed by the General Services Administration, the low-profile agency that officially starts the transition.
---
“What is the downside for humoring him for this little bit of time? No one seriously thinks the results will change,” one Republican official told The Post. Sen. Christopher A. Coons (D-Del.) told CNN that GOP senators are privately saying: “They call me to say, ‘Congratulations, please convey my well wishes to the president-elect, but I can’t say that publicly yet.’”
But this is not merely a temporary bit of playacting to soothe the tender feelings of the toddler in the Oval Office. It will be at the heart of Republican strategy for the next four years.
The GOP cares ONLY about permanently installing white minority rule to benefit their ultra wealthy donors, so they are perfectly fine with shredding democracy to hold onto power. Democracy actually is just a big nuisance to them.If you were gripped by a particularly naive hopefulness, you might have thought that President Trump’s defeat in the 2020 election would produce a brief moment of honesty and responsibility from the Republican Party. “We lost, and it hurts,” they might have said. “But let’s handle it like adults and show that we’re committed to democracy.”

Classic. All you need to do to catch it is just change the wording a bit and compare and despair.

Explain to me how the platform is it there we haven't had an economy this good since I was in grade school Under the Reagan Administration neither Democratic or republican presidents has done what President Trump has been able to do and Biden was already promised to undo all of what has been done which is going to possibly push us into another recession the cost of employing people goes out the roof again

We already have that party, little Marco. we’re called Democrats.
