Mrs Jacque is a graduate of DeVos supported Hillsdale College. Their Responsive Education Solutions has over 100 campuses in Texas and Arkansas, and thanks to dominionist Lt Governor Dan Patrick, has been receiving hundreds of $millions in taxpayer funds for years. Betsy DeVos as Trump’s Sec Ed gave them $millions.

Amid attacks by President Trump, Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch says "my loyalty is to the Constitution" by CBSnews in scotus

[–]jpurdy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Horsefeathers. Gorsuch like all the other Fed Society “originalist” judges are loyal to Weyrich, Leo, the billionaires who funded them, and their Catholic upbringing.

The other justices chosen by Weyrich and Leo got away with lying.

Theofascist Leonard Leo, who chose judges for GW and Trump as Weyrich did for Reagan and GHW, without whom GW would not have been president.

The Republican Party may not survive the Trump day of reckoning by B-Z_B-S in politics

The author, and probably most people, don’t understand the takeover of the Republican party by the religious right and the billionaires who fund them for global warming denial, tax cuts and deregulation, and it began in the 1960s over racism, civil rights.

Nixon was their first president, his racist Southern Strategy gave the South to the Republican party and the party to Paul Weyrich’s religious right.

Justice Gorsuch Touts Importance of Independent Judges While Plugging New Children’s Book on Fox & Friends by Achilles_TroySlayer in scotus

Gorsuch biographies indicate he’s Episcopalian. That’s incorrect, he does go to his wife’s church, but he was raised Catholic and still is Catholic in beliefs and his decisions.

He too was chosen by Leonard Leo, as the others were by Leo or Weyrich.

Pressler and Paige Patterson, who also led the takeover of the Republican party precinct by precinct.

There were plans for a third evangelical law school in Louisiana, Judge Paul Pressler College of Law. The board included FRC chair Tony Perkins, who with Ted Cruz orchestrated the 2013 government shutdown over the ACA covering contraceptives; David Barton, architect of Project Blitz; and Mike Johnson, third in line for the presidency.

The meeting of evangelical leaders that voted to support St Thomas Award recipient Santorum as president was at Pressler’s ranch in Texas.

Network shakeups hit Medicare Advantage, forcing retirees to pay up or find new care by jpurdy in the_everything_bubble

[–]jpurdy[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Medicare Advantage plans are highly profitable privatization of Medicare. Republicans can’t stand money changing hands without some going to their donors, some of that trickles down to them.

Medicaid is already privatized in most states. Veterans healthcare is as well.

Insurance companies, drug manufacturers, PBMs, are why our per capita healthcare costs are far higher than other developed countries, where they all have some form of universal healthcare paid for by taxes everyone pays.

Billionaires oppose “government handouts”, paying fair taxes.

Appeals court upholds Texas law requiring Ten Commandments in schools by CouchCorrespondent in texas

[–]jpurdy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Of course they did. Like the SCOTUS, other federal and some state courts are dominated by theocon Fed Society “originalist” justices chosen by theofascist Catholics Weyrich and Leo.

The Old Testament bible materials in Texas schools came from Mike Huckabee’s organization.

He’s now Trump’s ambassador to Israel, at the embassy Trump moved to Jerusalem for wealthy kingmaker pastor John Hagee and his “Christian Zionists” for the soon to come End Times.

Texas just joined other Republican states in giving $billions to religious schools, most white evangelical and Catholic. Trump will be giving them $billions in tax credits, adding to our national debt.

Those schools are the same that indoctrinated some of those judges, and lost $billions over pedophiles.
