Wake up to the American Taliban

These right-wing extremists want it their way, no compromise.

I guarantee that the far right of the Republican party, (which is the majority right now), will be very upset when they are referred to in this manner, but they have proven themselves time and time again to be just that: a minority of extremists in our country who want to impose their will on the rest of the country by any means necessary.

Just to site a few examples:

One of the worst being the attack on the Capital based on Trump’s continued lies.

Then there was the plot to kidnap the governor of Michigan and now the attack on Nancy Pelosi’s husband, which was really meant for her. Fortunately, she wasn’t there.

There is also the fact that they promote people of questionable character and ability to run for high office. Some examples of that being Reps. Marjorie Taylor Green and Lauren Boebert, plus Hershel Walker, who can barely walk down the street and chew gum at the same time. The reason they are against higher education is because they have made a concerted effort to dumb down their constituents so they will believe any misinformation they are fed and it has worked very well for them.

A prime example of how blatant this has become was when Trump spoke at one of his rallies claiming he loved the uneducated. He loves the uneducated because they can be easily manipulated and used.

The party has condoned a Nazi to run for office in Illinois and a former grand wizard of the KKK in Louisiana, just to name a few.

They don’t want separation of church and state, they want their brand of Christianity to run the country. This is a clear and present danger to our Democratic Republic and must not be allowed to succeed. Just sayin’.
