The highly scientific integrity of this week's poll is being besmerched (sp?) by someone who loves Tabatha Castro so much that they added her name three times.  And yet doesn't…

At some point you have to wonder if they are trying to out-crazy each other for limited Fox News screen-time, or they ARE really this crazy.

Proposed SC bill could make abortion a death penalty eligible offense

COLUMBIA, S.C. (WMBF) -South Carolina legislators are hearing a bill that would make abortion punishable by death.

Abortion is currently legal in South Carolina, as the state’s Supreme Court has vetoed all proposed legislation to restrict abortions within the state. The Court’s 3-2 decision allows abortion to remain legal in the state until 20 weeks of pregnancy.

The new bill, “South Carolina Prenatal Equal Protection Act of 2023,″ was pre-filed on Dec. 15, 2022. Following the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, Republican leaders have been hoping to reinstate a pre-Roe ban on almost all abortions at six weeks of pregnancy.

The bill seeks to amend the state constitution to recognize life as an individual person “from the moment of fertilization” and to define “person” to include an unborn child at any stage of development.

The DEGOP civil war that wasn’t

I had been expecting a headline like the one below for a long time, but the coup has come and gone. DEGOP moderates never stood a chance so they never put up a fight. It's like after Castle lost to O'Donnell, they just all said "fuck it."   They're all MAGA nutbags and really aren't concerned with ever winning state wide ever again.  

'Like a coup': Michigan Republicans raise alarms at militant far-right takeover of their party

Story by Tom Bogging
Moderate Republicans in Michigan are growing increasingly alarmed at the antics of far-right members of their party who are making major inroads at taking over the party using methods including armed intimidation at GOP events.

According to a report from Reuters, the extremist members of America First Republicans "now control local party leadership in more than half of Michigan's 83 counties" and that has officials alarmed as they prepare to hold internal elections this Saturday that could influence the direction of the party in the state.

Of concern among party members is that the failure of extremist candidates on the 2022 midterm ballot handed the state party its worst election results since 1984 -- and they fear a repeat in 2024.
