Republicans were back at their worst yesterday. They are stupid, stubborn, assholes. Here is their latest stupid moves. The are infuriating, but I refuse to be sucked in. Look how restrained I am.
First off, the Republicans have found a way to torpedo the bipartisan proposal to pay for infrastructure. Their "red-line", meaning a position they will not relent on, is (I swear to God) investigating tax cheats. Seriously, they have blocked the law because the IRS avoidance option is NOT to raise taxes, but to recover all the money now required by law. Yes, they won't pass this until it protects tax cheats.
The Texas Senate passed a law yesterday that specifiably removes the requirement to study Martin Luther King's speech and works. Removes the requirement to study Susan B Anthony and Cesar Chaves. What does it replace it with? They have to teach that the Klu Klux Klan as not based on White Supremacy. Apparently they just liked white outfits and lynchings just happened to occur at their meetings. No. reason why.
I know these are real positions, even though I do not know why. But I will not let it trigger me. Taht is what the dark side wants.
