We start GREEP Zoom #140 with the great GOVERNOR DON SIEGELMAN of Alabama.   

The heroic former Secretary of State, Attorney General, Lieutenant Governor and then Governor of Alabama gives us the run-down on voter suppression history in this country.

He brilliantly denounces the death penalty, of which he has a disturbing personal history.

And he then explains the latest surprising “Milligan” decision by the US Supreme Court which actually overturns a deep anti-black gerrymandering rule in Alabama.

After an important string of questions for Governor Siegelman, we gives way to BRYNN TANNEHILL, who gives us a detailed look at anti-LGBTQ rights.

It’s something of an understatement to say that we are all awakening again today in uncharted territory. And, the rule of law prevails.

Despite his avalanche of trumped-up cries of innocence, and despite the wolf whistles on his BS, oops I mean TS channel, lets state with no equivocation there is absolutely no Divine Right of Presidents anywhere in the Constitution, Bill of Rights, Declaration of Independence, Classified or Top Secret documents, or even the Star Spangled Banner.  And no matter how mighty his mind thinks it is, he cannot declassify any of the above.

Trump who famously once called himself a “son of God” and who brags about his long distance conversations with the divine is actually a mere mortal, a stupid and sad sack of corpulent corpuscles who pinched his rallying cries for his MAGA masses from medieval Christian European kings who once believed they were answerable to no one except God, This  absurd notion of royal absolutism became known as the divine right of kings who expected and demanded total obedience from the people they ruled.

Was he kidding? Are these words for real?

“I have, therefore, chosen this time and this place to discuss a topic on which ignorance too often abounds and the truth is too rarely perceived — yet it is the most important topic on earth: world peace.”

Students holding signs

 

Today, students representing 10+ universities held a mock funeral for Ohio higher education in the face of continued efforts to pass SB83, best known as the Higher Education Destruction Act, bringing attention to how this dangerous legislation would cripple our education system and harm students. 

Overwhelmingly, Ohio students have come out against SB83 and its companion bill HB151. If made into law, it would transform our higher education system for the worse, making it more costly, more restrictive, and less supportive for students. It attacks DEI (Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion) programs that help support underrepresented populations and would stifle academic freedom. An Ohio where SB83 becomes law is one where faculty must teach ‘both sides’ of climate change and universities can not do something as simple as take a stance on concepts as broad as “diversity” or “sustainability.”

Mike Dewine

As in so many things, Gov. Mike DeWine and his cronies; led by party leaders in the State House and Senate who blindly copy the legislation of Texas, Florida, Georgia, and Arkansas; Lt. Gov. Jon Husted who publicly admits to disliking the arts and culture; and Yo Yost and anti-abortionist LaRose who are unfamiliar with the US Constitution, their own prior statements, and truth struggle to lead Ohio into paths of decline and destruction. Incredibly, these gerrymander-elected politicians claim to have earned law degrees.
