Arizona Sen. Kyrsten Sinema announced Friday that she has left the Democratic Party and has registered as an independent, saying she’s turning her back on the “broken partisan system in Washington” that prioritizes denying the opposition party a win rather than “delivering for all Americans.” Sinema made the announcement in a Dec. 9 thread on Twitter and elaborated on her decision in a lengthy op-ed in the Arizona Republic. “I have joined the growing numbers of Arizonans who reject party politics by declaring my independence from the broken partisan system in Washington and formally registering as an Arizona Independent,” Sinema stated in a post on Twitter.

If she still votes with the Dem caucus then what she calls herself is immaterial - she is still a Democrat.

This is nothing more than a cry for attention. It’s pathetic. She is going to caucus with the Dems and vote with the Dems. It changes nothing.

Everyone above pretty much beat me to anything I would have written. But she is pretty much playing the same game as Bernie Sanders. Won't make any practical difference, unless the Dems refuse to meet her price on close votes.

Brilliant. This the way. With God, all things are possible. If good men will not create a 2nd Party, at least go Independent. The two Parties we have are both corrupt to the core. Let us let go of the 'Team' aspect the Democrat media has trained us to accept. My team, Yay! Buy the merch. Wear the team gear. STOP. Elections are not a team sport. It's about governance.

Election denier Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) attacked democracy at least 100 times by questioning the integrity of American elections, according to Republican National Committee’s research exclusively obtained by Breitbart News. Jeffries, minority leader of House Democrats, has cast doubt on the integrity of American elections by way of seven different categories: legitimacy, cheating, rigged, fake, artificial, hoax, and ‘so-called.” The seven ways in which Jeffries attacked democracy were spewed into the public domain for years via Twitter, TV, and political speeches. The tabulation goes back as far as 2017 after former President Donald Trump defeated two-time failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.

Sam Brinton, the Biden Regime’s nonbinary “nuclear waste guru” who allegedly stole a woman’s suitcase from the Minneapolis Airport, is now accused of stealing luggage from yet another airport. (snip)After his felony theft charge in Minneapolis made headlines earlier this month, LGBTQ Nation published a report casting doubt on Brinton’s dubious claims of being a “survivor of a traumatic and torturous conversion therapy experience,” after he was unable to provide any verifiable details about his alleged experience. The pup fetishist is reportedly an active member of a sacrilegious drag queen society called the “Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence,” a 501(c)3 tax-deductible non-profit charity that has mocked the Catholic Church for decades.

It needs to be a rule for the Larry Hogan wing of the Republican Party that anytime they drone about it being time to “move on,” they’re required to say out loud exactly what it means to move on. Because when the Wall Street Journal or Mitt Romney repeats that condescending line with absolute disdain, they’re not just talking about zeroing out the political viability of a single man who offends their delicate sensibilities. They’re talking about a complete memory-holing of the GOP’s shift from country club to Costco and the abandonment of all the issues that brought hundreds of thousands of new voters into the fold.

Just an ancillary side note to the U.S-Russia prisoner exchange. According to an original article from NBC, the negotiations for the prisoner swap included an exchange for either LGBTQ+ hero Brittany Griner or U.S. former marine Paul Whelan. The Russians would swap either U.S. citizen for the return of arms dealer Viktor Bout; however, the White House would have to decide which American they wanted in return. The White House decided there was greater benefit to getting LGBTQ+ hero Brittany Griner returned, and left Paul Whelan in a Russian prison.(snip)NBC stealth edited their story after publication in order to eliminate the political problem.

The administration’s appeal could scuttle a Dec. 21 deadline set by Sullivan for his order to take effect.

Why Does the GOP Elite Hate Its Own Base? 42 replies
Posted by GustoGrabber 12/9/2022 6:47:13 AM Post Reply
It is one of the most bitter and tragic ironies of our contemporary politics that the leadership of one of America’s two major political parties, the Republican Party, utterly despises that party’s very own voting base. The GOP elite’s scorn for its own voters has, at this point, been a long time in the making. The trend accelerated during the 2009-2011 rise of the Tea Party, a grassroots movement fueled by constitutionalism and anti-elite populism. The crustier elements of the Republican establishment ran as far away as possible from the Tea Party, and the 2012 presidential coronation of private equity plutocrat Mitt Romney effectively killed the movement.

The Guardian just reported the results of a study of 2 million-year-old DNA found in northern Greenland. Two-million-year-old DNA from northern Greenland has revealed that the region was once home to mastodons, lemmings and geese, offering unprecedented insights into how climate change can shape ecosystems. The breakthrough in ancient DNA analysis pushes back the DNA record by 1m years to a time when the Arctic region was 11-19C warmer than the present day. The analysis reveals that the northern peninsula of Greenland, now a polar desert, once featured boreal forests of poplar and birch trees teeming with wildlife.
