Rachel Maddow exposes republican FRAUD! .....again!

r  u  saying it all has to do with republican power grab like fascists do ?? 

Two parts ...

Rachel Maddow once again exposes republican CORRUPTION

PART 1

North Carolina Senate Bill 382:

AN ACT MAKING VARIOUS CHANGES TO THE LAWS OF DENTISTRY

Maddow:
N.Carolina is one of the states where republicans did not fare as well as they wanted to in this last election
Yes, trump did win the presidential vote in N.Carolina (by about 3 pts)...

BUT...

the GOP candidate for GOVERNOR [an asshole] LOST by -14 pts;

the GOP candidate LOST the Lt. Governor's race in N.Carolina;

the GOP candidate LOST the Attorney General race in NC;

the GOP candidate LOST the Secretary of State race in NC;

the GOP candidate, [another asshole] the fascist Michelle Morrow, LOST the race for State Schools Chief in NC along with most GOP candidates for state-wide office...

Maddow:
Yes, trump won the presidential election in the state BUT republicans LOST almost everything else [including Governor]

Heading into this election republicans held a SUPER MAJORITY in that state legislature [and still do for now] But after this election republicans LOST their SUPER MAJORITY and so - beginning in January - will no longer have the ability to override a VETO to their corruption by the elected Democratic Governor.

But this is where the ACT for the laws of dentistry enter this story on GOP corruption....because the republicans in North Carolina, who have lost so many seats in the legislature and are soon to lose their "veto-proof" SUPER MAJORITY, took the Laws of Dentistry bill and turned it into something radical...on their way out the door.
Republicans took this bill, gutted it by removing all the dentistry stuff, calling it the Hurricane Reflief Bill - but what it really does is strips away much of the legislative power from all the incoming Democrats....

Part 2:  continued, from Rachel Maddow...

** The Governor [a Democrat elected by the people] will no longer have the constitutional ability to appoint judges as he sees fit. Instead, in many cases, he will need the explicit approval of the state REPUBLICAN PARTY!!

** The state Attorney General, under this reworked bill, will not be allowed to oppose ANYTHING that is done by republicans in the state legislature - EVEN IF the AG believes it is against the laws of the state!

** The bill would transfer the State Board of Elections authority over to the State AUDITOR.
The state Auditor?!?!?!?
WHY would republicans wants to change the NC state law so the AUDITOR is now suddenly in charge of elections?!?!?! [Maddow queries]

OHH!!!
Because State Auditor [Dave Boliek] is the ONE race that republicans won this year. That's why.

During an NC trump speech, Dave Boliek shouted loudly "I'm ONLY in politics FOR YOU, sir!"

So the republican bill transfers elections authority to that one lone elected republican - even though the State Auditor office has nothing to do whatsoever with state elections.

Maddow accurately added: "It's like putting the dog catcher in charge of the Water Department....there's just no connection at all, but he is the ONE republican, and so now HE will be the elections guy. This is what they've done to the Dentistry Bill since the election...

North Carolinians have been showing up en masse at the state legislature to protest, filling the Gallery, shouting down the corrupt republicans while they have been forcing through this last minute - after the election - hijack the Dentistry Bill, to try to ensure they can stay in power even after THEY HAVE BEEN VOTED OUT!  [sound familiar??]

So they are trying to work around the people's votes, so they can [effectively] stay in power even without the people's consent.

THAT is fascism!

"Votes aren't everything!....there are other ways republicans can keep and expand their power"

On party lines only [because Democrats do not support such corruption], the bill passed both republican-controlled houses, but faces a likely veto by current Democratic Gov. Roy Cooper.

Republicans passed the lame-duck power grab just weeks before they will lose their veto-proof supermajority. Three House Republicans from Western North Carolina, which was ravaged by the hurricane, voted against the "sham hurricane relief” bill. If the legislation is vetoed and the three lawmakers don’t support a veto override, it wouldn’t become law.

All eyes are on North Carolina.

Democracy   vs.  POWER GRAB

MSNBC -

Senators receive affidavit containing new allegations against Pete Hegseth

The former sister-in-law of Trump’s defense secretary pick said that Hegseth made his second wife fear for her safety.

The former sister-in-law, Danielle Hegseth, submitted the affidavit in response to a Jan. 18 letter from Sen. Jack Reed, D-R.I., seeking “a statement attesting to your personal knowledge about Mr. Hegseth’s fitness to occupy this important position.”
Danielle describes in the affidavit allegations of volatile and threatening conduct by Hegseth that made his second wife, Samantha Hegseth, fear for her safety. Among the allegations are that Samantha hid in a closet once from Hegseth, that she developed escape plans for use “if she felt she needed to get away from Hegseth” that would be activated with a code word and that she did once put the escape plans into action.

At least 15 senators — including multiple Republicans — had reviewed the affidavit as of 2:30 p.m. ET

 Russia .2 ? 

even the partisan hacks at SNL and NBC mocking her , or is it him ? 

   REPUBLICAN SCAMMERS!

A GOP congressman from eastern Ohio recently hired the organizer behind a SCAM charity that pocketed almost all the $150,000 it claimed to be raising for victims of the East Palestine train derailment.

The Cleveland -
3 republican scammers ordered to pay $50K for roles in a fake charity tied to East Palestine derailment

COLUMBUS, Ohio — Three men who have worked as Republican political operatives agreed to pay more than $50,000 in restitution and penalties in Ohio for their roles in operating a phony charity that collected cash purportedly to help victims of the East Palestine train derailment.

The settlement, announced Thursday by Republican Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost, requires Isaiah Wartman and Luke Mahoney of WAMA Strategies to pay more than $22,000 to a local food bank, plus $3,000 in investigative costs and fees.

Under the deal, Michael Peppel, co-founder of the fraudulent charity, Ohio Clean Water Fund, must pay a $25,000 civil penalty and agree to a lifetime ban on starting, running or soliciting for any charity in the state, Yost announced.

Wartman worked as campaign manager and senior adviser to Republican U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, of Georgia.

Mahoney worked as a campaign staffer for Republican U.S. Rep. Elise Stefanik, of New York.

And now the lead SCAMMER, Peppel, works for Republican congressman Michael Rulli

Thus, scamming by republicans, can be a rewarding adventure.

Just ask trump.

trump issues orders to FREEZE all hiring for open positions at the VA

Last week (Jan 16) when we still had a decent man as President,
the CDC sent urgent advice to all hospitals warning them about flu symptoms which means now in addition to testing for normal flues, they must also be testing for "bird flu" which is ravaging the country.

There is an epidemic in America. Over 130 MILLION birds have now died from bird flu, some cattle, and at least 70 Americans have been infected.  As a result the price of eggs continues to rise!!! [inflation]

But now that a convicted felon is president, the racist/FRAUD/sex-offender immediately sent out a stern directive ordering the CDC and ALL US health agencies"should no longer release ANY information, to anyone, on anything. Not just to the public, but to doctors, and scientists and hospitals."

Three major alerts were due to go out, but trump has ordered all information stopped, including scientific information advising hospitals on how to deal with this emerging threat!"

trump mismanaged covid and now apparently doing it again with avian flu epidemic

After Trump sets ALL convicted January 6 rioters free, Fox News completely reverses its tune on pardons for violent offenders

all of them too       not just    sean insanity
