Good read. Mini-Colin
Biden did a great job picking her. She is far beyond most of the conservatives on the Supreme Court.
Republicans are between a rock and a hard place right now. Trump is definitely going to get the book thrown at him. There’s no way around that. Biden is actually doing OK especially with the economy. This is going to put a lot of Republicans in a very tight spot going forward.
Yep, Alabama did the same thing back in the days when they was trying to integrate schools and guess what happened…..the military showed up.
This all day!!! When I watch those Good Liar or Luke Beasley MAGA interviews, all it takes is one follow up question to break them on something they held so concretely. They don't know anything past the catchphrases they heard on OAN.
Erick Erickson probably thinks the funding model for professional sports stadiums is fine.
“Project 2025 is not a white paper. We are not tinkering at the edges. We are writing a battle plan, and we are marshaling our forces,” said Paul Dans, director of Project 2025 at the Heritage Foundation, which compiled the plan as a road map for the first 180 days of the next GOP administration. “Never before has the whole conservative movement banded together to systematically prepare to take power day one and deconstruct the administrative state.”

Turns Out Rep. Tricia Cotham, North Carolina Abortion Traitor, Was a GOP Plant All Along
The saga of North Carolina state Rep. Tricia Cotham (R) is a strange one: She was a vocally pro-choice Democrat who revealed in 2015 that she’d had a medically necessary abortion, then won her old seat in November 2022 only to defect to the Republican party in April and give the GOP a supermajority that they used to pass an abortion ban. Now, new reporting shows that local Republicans urged her to run as a Democrat—fooling voters in her very blue Charlotte-area district into thinking she strongly supported abortion rights—and were planting the seeds for her party switch for months.On Sunday, the New York Times reported that both Republican House Speaker Tim Moore and Republican Majority Leader John Bell encouraged her to run in the Democratic primary in the spring of 2022. The Times described it this way: “Republican leaders cultivated her before she ran and, seeing her growing estrangement [from Democrats], seized a chance to coax her across party lines.”
Former Cotham associates painted a picture of a woman who thought Democrats were being mean to her. Longtime advisor Jonathan Coby said she was angry after the gun vote. “She said, ‘I’m either going to switch parties or resign,’” he recalled. “The things she was telling me then were like, ‘The Democrats don’t like me, the Republicans have helped me out a lot and been nice to me.’” (Coby said similar things to Jezebel in May.) Lacey Williams, a former advocacy director at the Charlotte-based Latin American Coalition in Charlotte, said Cotham “felt she did not get the gratitude or spotlight that she felt she deserved.”
In January of this year, Cotham co-sponsored a bill to codify Roe v. Wade into state law, but Jillian Reilly, a lobbyist for Planned Parenthood South Atlantic, told the Times that Cotham refused to meet with the group and wouldn’t take its phone calls. House Democratic Party leader Robert Reives showed the Times text exchanges between him and Cotham that the paper characterized as friendly. “It never would have crossed my mind that she was having issues,” Reives said.
Back in 2015, Cotham spoke on the House floor about her own medically necessary abortion for an ectopic pregnancy. After a leaked draft showed the Supreme Court was set to overturn Roe, she said on Twitter that she would be “unwavering and unapologetic” in her support of abortion rights. But after her party switch, she voted twice to ban abortion after 12 weeks, first to pass it and again to override the governor’s veto.
In June, she had the gall to say she was “still the same person,” and claimed she was never really that strong of an abortion supporter. “With abortion, that’s never been an issue that I was always out there for at all,” she said per the News & Observer. A week later, she continued in her valiant attempts to rewrite history by saying she didn’t have an abortion. “I had a miscarriage, and a miscarriage in medical terms is called a spontaneous abortion,” she told a radio host. “And so instead of saying—first of all, they should not even be talking about my miscarriage, that is just very painful and wrong—but they’re repeating this message that I had an abortion, and that is false.”
But back in 2015, when Cotham shared her experience on the House floor to oppose a bill that would restrict abortion, she used very different language, saying she had an “induced, physician-assisted miscarriage.” That’s definitely not a spontaneous event. Cotham was even featured in a June 2015 Time story on lawmakers talking about their abortions.
Now, thanks to the whims of one mercurial lawmaker courted by the GOP, abortion is less accessible for North Carolinians and millions of people across the South.
