(263 posts)Responding to the FBI's raid on Mar-a-Lago, Florida GOP state Rep. Anthony Sabatini has called for his state's legislature to break away from federal agencies.
Its time for us in the Florida Legislature to call an emergency legislative session & amend our laws regarding federal agencies, Sabatini wrote on Twitter this Tuesday.
"Sever all ties with DOJ immediately," he added. "Any FBI agent conducting law enforcement functions outside the purview of our State should be arrested upon sight."
As The Daily Beast points out, Sabatini was a supporter of Trump's false claims that the 2020 election was stolen.

(13,003 posts)I would really love it if they broke away from "Federal agencies", as in "succeeded" from the USA and were responsible for all the shit the Feds supply them with........
Let Florida elect DeSantis as their President and then just stand back and let the new Florida Country implode.......
Same thing goes for Texas, etc etc etc

(608 posts)There's a lot to campaign on in specific states as well.
For example in Texas, the Republicans in the legislature passed a bill which the Republican governor signed into law allowing bounty hunters to go after female children who have been the victims of rape.
Not allowing licensed bounty hunters to go after the rapist.
But allowing self-appointed bounty hunters to pursue little girls who've been rape victims.
(Not that it's politically relevant yet but I wonder how the police are supposed to sort out the creeps who are following little girls looking for chances to rape them from the self-appointed bounty hunters who are following little girls around thinking the little girl might have been a rape victim and hoping the girls will do something "suspicious" so the bounty hunter can take her to court and cash in on it.)

(24,957 posts)I never thought of that but........ewwww.
That's exactly the angle I think Beto ought to use in any TV political ads:
"They're sending bounty hunters after little girls who've been the victims of rape. Not after the rapists but the victims."

(90,002 posts)Remind, remind, remind!
And it's a nice concise list. Unfortunately, nobody has time to wait while a Biden supporter tries to list ALL the dozens and dozens and more dozens of beneficial moves or acts that President Biden ran on, endorsed, promoted, and helped negotiate. And look at what we got? The outstanding results speak for themselves.
Now, we gotta PROMOTE it!!!
Unfortunately, I doubt that most voters know the facts, let alone would readily believe the GQPee has gone as far off the rails as it has.

(1,318 posts)Dubya was going to spend all the political capital he felt he had earned by touring the country trying to promote the privatization of Social Security. He ended up abandoning that 'tour'.
Eisenhower didn't mince words. He said "President Dwight Eisenhower, Republican, uttered these words on November 8, 1954:
Should any political party attempt to abolish social security, unemployment insurance and eliminate labor laws and farm programs, you would not hear of that party again in our political history. There is a tiny splinter group, of course, that believes that you can do these things. Among them are a few Texas oil millionaires, and an occasional politician or businessman from other areas. Their number is negligible and they are stupid.
Yet here we are again. Their willful ignorance is astounding.
