Obviously a rhetorical question, but this Republican Accountability Project sounds like a step in the right direction anyway.
Thank you for sharing.

How come we don't get one?
I got to give them credit. They're all for getting rid of the repubs who disputed the election, and in essence caused the riot, insurrection, or just plain terrorist attack.

from what I understand, you need to get permission from the GOP to even use it as a domain extension, and they don't evn use it for the RNC.
I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong.
An interesting side note is that he DNC uses the .org extension (DNC.org), while the RNC uses the .com one (RNC.com).
.orgs is for non-profits, while .com is for businesses.

I have no source, but I have read in many places that it's because that would legitimize porn sites.
Personally, I think it would be easier to find porn sites and monitor them.
Monitoring porn sites would be an excellent job!
I had a lady friend who did that trying to find trafficked missing persons, but she did it for free.

He won't vote for impeachment, but he was walking back a few things..
(Maybe it was claims of voter fraud........)

(15,219 posts)The attackers were directly incited by Trump and the overwhelming majority of Republicans in Congress who had been falsely claiming, for monthsand in the immediate moments before the attackthat the election had been stolen from Trump.
This was the lie that motivated the attack on the Capitol. We cannot allow it to persist. It erodes Americans faith in the integrity of our electoral system. It creates more opportunity for violence from radical actors who have been told by elected officials that the election was stolen from them. And it threatens the very democracy we all cherish.
Republicans would like to simply move on. But without accountability there is no clear path forward. That is why weve launched the Republican Accountability Project.
To that end, the Republican Accountability Project will:
Support Republicans in Congress who, at great personal and political risk, are defying party leadership and defending the institutions of our republic;
Work to unseat those who have tried to overturn a legitimate election and supported impunity for political violence, including by strategically recruiting and promoting primary challengers through our PAC;
Push back against lies and conspiracy theories about widespread voter fraud and rigged elections.
If youd like to join our effort, please sign your name to stand with us for accountability. If youre able, please consider making a donation to help us ensure we have the resources we need to defend those defending our democracy.
Accountability matters.
If youre a Republican politician who supported the Big Lie that there was widespread fraud in this election, if you objected to the certification of legitimate Electoral College votes, or otherwise pretended that Congress could overturn the will of the American people, you will be held accountable.

(5,366 posts)It's the only path the party has of surviving.
Cut loose from Trump, admit you got it wrong, follow legal proceedings to hold some law breaking Republicans to account for their actions.
And get the empty headed loudmouths like Cruz to pull their heads in and shut the hell up!
Do all of that, and the Republican party will have a chance of not disappearing down the hellhole of irresponsible idiocy and irrelevancy.

(9,962 posts)the Dems run somebody of Beto's caliber against him, and not another MJ Hegar. I liked her well enough, but she'd do better in the House. Rafaelito can be had.
