I keep warning that the GOP will re-criminalize homosexuality if allowed to win more elections. Few have taken this seriously. But they should. The new House Speaker, Republican Mike Johnson, is Exhibit A. 1/ cnn.com/2023/10/25/pol…
Image
Clarence Thomas is Exhibit B. 2/
Alito is Exhibit C. 3/
Coney Barrett = Exhibit D. 4/
Like Mike Johnson, Coney Barrett is close with the Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF). 5/
6/ Mike Johnson was a lawyer for the ADF.
7/ I warned about the ADF in June. buckscountybeacon.com/2023/06/christ…
Image
8/ Kavanaugh is Exhibit E.
9/ Here are Kavanaugh & Alito with Christian extremist leader Brian Brown of the World Congress of Families, Citizen Go, & the National Organization of Marriage, which he co-leads w/ indicted MAGA lawyer John Eastman.
10/ thebureauinvestigates.com/stories/2022-0…
Image
11/ This is a global, Kremlin-linked movement, and we can’t stop it if American voters don’t know about it. Most don’t know about it.
12/ WCF = Brian Brown’s World Congress of Families.
13/
14/ In a speech to the Family Research Council, Eastman said “he hoped Uganda’s supreme court wld ‘in short order’ reconsider a harsh anti-gay bill that … d impose life imprisonment in some cases & … criminalize the ‘promotion’ of homosexuality.” 6/4/15 rightwingwatch.org/post/nom-chair…
Image
15/ Family Research Council president Tony Perkins says that Mike Johnson has been a friend of his for a “long time.” Image
16/
17/
18/ NAR = New Apostolic Reformation, a global dominionist movement. I wrote about the NAR and Jim Garlow and their alliance with MAGA Republicans here. buckscountybeacon.com/2022/08/underr…
Image
19/ This is the NAR.
20/
21/
22/ Image

Image
24/ I don’t think Roberts or Gorsuch wld overrule Lawrence v Texas. But if one of them (or a liberal justice) were to get sick, die, or retire, then the LGBTQ+ community & women wld be screwed under a Republican president. We cannot afford more Republican judges.
25/ Speaking of untimely retirements, we deserved answers, but never got them.
26/ See also the surprise retirements of Trump critics Bob Corker, Jeff Flake, and Charlie Dent.
27/
28/
29/
30/ Related thread. Wow this is bad.
31/ It’s definitely not *great*.
32/ The situation can get worse for women too. Image
33/ “Abortion rights opponents across the country want to charge women with murder” - 7/13/23 npr.org/2023/07/13/118…
34/ “Republicans push wave of bills that would bring homicide charges for abortion” 3/10/23 theguardian.com/us-news/2023/m…
Image
35/ a very bad sign.
36/ FFS I am so sick of religious zealots taking over our government.

Mike Johnson “led the amicus brief signed by more than 100 House Republicans in support of a Texas lawsuit [filed by Texas AG Ken Paxton] seeking to invalidate the 2020 election results in … Georgia, Michigan, PA and Wisconsin.” 1/ nbcnews.com/politics/congr…
Paxton’s brief was itself written by Michael Farris, who led the Alliance Defending Freedom until recently. I wrote about Farris here. 2/ buckscountybeacon.com/2023/06/christ…

@AndrewLSeidel Mike Johnson was an attorney and spokesperson for the Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF)??? Good Gawd, this is scary. I wrote about the ADF here. 👇 buckscountybeacon.com/2023/06/christ…

@AndrewLSeidel And there it is. I keep warning that the GOP will criminalize homosexuality (and the failure to report it) if allowed to win more elections. Few have taken this seriously. cnn.com/2023/10/25/pol…

Step 1: Amplify the existence of a non-existent anomaly. (Recall that Patrick Byrne is a former advisor to Rand Paul who delivered a letter from Trump to Putin’s admin in 2018, >Byrne had a long sexual relationship w/ Russian agent Maria Butina, an Alexander Torshin protege). 1/
Step 2: Use phony “evidence” as a pretext for “inspecting” voting systems. 2/
3/ Step 3: help finance lawyer involved with voting system inspections.

“Try to impeach him. Just try it. You will have a spasm of violence in this country, an insurrection, like you’ve never seen. The people will not stand 4 impeachment. A politician that votes for it will endanger their own life.” - Roger Stone, Aug 2017 1/ azcentral.com/story/opinion/…

"If you look at the vote to impeach, for example, there were members who told me that they were afraid for their own security -- afraid, in some instances, for their lives," says Liz Cheney. - May 2021 2/ cnntv/index.html Image
