Freedom of speech and the Dems are as far apart “as the east from the west” (Psalm 103:12 in different context).

To prevent a political candidate from speaking is a curtailment of basic rights.

Done all the time in banana republics (I mean the other banana republics). Also the priests and dissidents in Communist China are silenced and imprisoned on any excuse for an offense that can be set up. Not to forget Putin’s opponents who come to mysterious bad ends.

You are CORRECT!

That should be the Trump defense strategy.

Boogieman said:

“Trump should violate the gag order, then sue the judge for civil rights violations to get the matter in front of a federal judge.”

EXACTLY!

There are SO MANY constitutional problems in charging and gagging Trump, that it HAS TO GO FEDERAL and all the way to SCOTUS several times.

For the duration, Trump will control the narrative and the headlines. There won’t be any other news.

If ANYONE has the BALLS to do this its Trump.

Just be peaceful until they burn you out, subvert the system, and stomp you to death.

And they open their wallets. tens to hundreds of millions flow into Dem campaigns from small donations. Our candidates get left out to dry as our side sits on their behinds and keeps their wallets closed and sit around reading articles from supposedly conservative publications claiming the establishment Super PACs decide who gets funded or not, even though they have nothing to do with that. "McConnell pulls funding from candidate x", "McConnell hasn't funded candidate x" just to stir up angst within the base instead of reporting they need to donate to these candidates as that is where they get their funding. Where McConnell and similar PACs spend their money had nothing to do with candidate campaign funding whatsoever. 1 million conservatives giving just $10 = $10 million. 2 million = $20 million. And there are far more than that who could give that amount to candidates. But the Left is who is organized to rally their base to get these small donations while the right sits on their behinds and keeps their wallets closed.

Just one more election that proves the ballot box is no longer a solution in the culture war.

We sat back and let them take over media/academia 50 years ago, and now we're "deeply saddened" by the results?

On a side note...election on the same day as the Trump indictment...coincidence?

How many MAGA were "demoralized" by today's action and said...f-it.

They did the same thing in Michigan, taking the state supreme court, controlling redistricting.

The problem is much of the GOP establishment doesn't like Trump either and they don't support him like the DNC supports their candidates.

I don't think many dems like Biden, but they like power and he's a useful puppet for the far left agenda. Even if GOP-E was largely supportive of Trump they've never shown as a party they can get out the vote like the DNC.

That would be high probability on my assessment list.

An even higher probability on my list is that the Democrats have serious kompromat on two or three of the Republican legislators and threatened them with exposure if they refused to throw their votes. A reasonable assumption is that all legislators are dirty. It is only a matter of how dirty.

"An honest politician is one who stays bought".

Since the Republicans expelled two of the three offenders, I expect that the Democrats will get revenge by exposing the dirt they have on the guys who refused to throw their votes.

And race riots. Of course, the Democrats will organize race riots.

I feel like the revelation that your own leadership is supposedly controlled by the enemy should lead to at least some kind of soul-searching.

Soul searching done. Turns out the perfidious liberals are to blame. If we support political violence and murdering them all the problem will be solved, because I will feel better seeing suffering inflicted on them.

Don't forget everyone on our side who carries out this political violence is actually a Soros plant hired by the victims themselves to make us look violent.

Why are IQs dropping in the USA?

Race is hugely important.

The US has had very heavy immigration for decades mostly from relatively low-Iq countries.

Granted, that does not explain some other national cases.

Take a f’ing guess. Import the turd world, and worship the 13% millstone around our necks, and IQ will most definitely drop. the late 90s is when this illegal alien madness kicked into high gear.

Compare the people of the countries with the highest IQ’s and those of the USA. You will note those with high IQ’s all look alike. Japanese, the Scandinavian countries, etc. Whereas the US is highly diversified. The diversification of a country lowers it’s levels of excellence in every way. It’s as plain as day!!!!

IQ is something you are born with. You just can’t make dull people brilliant. You can provide a sound education to them both. The people with higher IQs will make something of themselves besides a social parasite.

This is not a serious country. Things will get far, far worse before they get better, I fear. Our “fellow” citizens are not our peers, nor can they sustain the high trust society which was built by ethnic Americans with long roots in this land.

It might be useful is someone did a comparative study on IQs between children raised in meat-eating homes and those raised in vegan/vegetarian homes.

Most people's first contact with the printed word is through pulling books off the shelf and looking at them.

You can not do that with an e-book. If your home does not have real books in it, a lot of real books, your kids will not become readers. If you do not read, and read a large variety of books, you are reducing your ability to think.

People think e-books are the same thing. They are not. I can pick out the kids in my Sunday School class who have real books in the home and those who don't. And frankly the blue light is not good for adults or children.

But, what do I know.

Early teens through age 22 use of MARIJUANA. Chronic use.

20% drop in IQ which is permanent because of the developmental stage of the human brain which is disrupted,
enzymatically, chemically crossing the blood brain barrier. Why someone is called STONED, and the drug called DOPE.

I agree 100%. There are many kids I run across, including my own, who are smart, articulate, hard working, and care. There is a huge disparity between them and their peers. My kids regularly complain about how “stupid” the other kids are. Constantly on Tik-tok and other social media. Caring about what celebritards and athletes say and think. Worried about offending the “protected” classes; all that. Just stupid kids beyond what is a normally stupid kid.
I am positively convinced that children raised by a 2-parent household that care about their children are far, far ahead of their peers. It’s almost night and day.

I believe that the indwelling of the Holy Spirit is worth a few IQ points…but I am biased, I guess.

Proverbs 9:10, “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.”

The church we attend has a youth group (ages 13-18, I’d guess) of about 25 kids. During service, they sit as a group in the front rows with the youth director husband-and-wife team. Most of them come from HARD lives in rural impoverished areas of TN. Some have no parents in the picture — being raised by druggie grandparents or in foster care. Some victims of abuse. Many sad stories.

They are AMAZING kids, and we give credit the youth directors and pastor. I don’t know if they can help with basic I.Q. and schooling, but the kids have learned demeanor and how to behave in polite society. They sit up straight in church, listen to the sermons, and are polite to us “old folks”.

We had pretty much written off the younger generation, but now we’re hopeful.

Ah yes "ethnic Americans" with "long roots" are what count as real Americans... immigrants are good but only as long as they are their own ancient and long dead ancestors.

I actually half agree with the books poster, reading a lot of books can grant a pretty big advantage with grammar and spelling, although I do not dislike e-books like them. It's pretty cool to have a pocket library, and they are often cheaper than the physical. He does know you can buy both if you really like the book, right? I also wonder what he thinks about the recent book bannings.
