The Isolated Politics Blurt Thread I: A New Beginning

Remember, Trump was very popular with Democrats until about 2011...hmmm...I wonder why? Maybe the campaign cash?
 
FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) — Democratic Gov. Andy Beshear banned the use of “conversion therapy” on minors in Kentucky on Wednesday, calling his executive order a necessary step to protect children from a widely discredited practice that tries to change a person’s sexual orientation or gender identity through counseling.

The governor used his executive powers after Republicans who control the state legislature repeatedly blocked efforts to enact a state law banning the practice. Beshear said he would no longer wait for others to "do what’s right.”

lol. Josh Shapiro had an embarrassing moment Tuesday as he was filming a promotional about buying canned cocktails from a convenience store... he'd forgotten his ID and was refused.

Shapiro found himself being possibly one of the first consumers in the state to be denied a canned alcoholic cocktail under the new law.

In footage obtained by CBS21, the Democrat was seen inside the gas station, picking up canned Surfside tea and vodka beverages.

But, the 51-year-old governor was then seen putting the drinks back on the shelf after clocking he’d forgotten his identification.

He appeared to joke with staff about the fail, before leaving empty handed.

The governor’s office confirmed Shapiro put the alcohol back and no one purchased the drink for him, The Hill reported.

“You can now buy your ready-to-drink canned cocktails at your local grocery store or gas station,” Shapiro said on the day. “Boosting our economy and protecting tax payers, this reform is projected to raise $137 million in new revenue.”

this belongs in the jan 6th perps thread but i can't bring it up:

WASHINGTON — A Donald Trump supporter who bear-sprayed officers during the Jan. 6 attack, and whose photo was featured in a Joe Biden ad in early 2024, has pleaded guilty, admitting that he hit at least three officers during the attack, temporarily blinding at least two of them.

Andy Steven Oliva-Lopez — whom online sleuths had dubbed "Blue Plaid Sprayer" because he was wearing a blue plaid shirt along with a helmet and a gas mask when he unleashed chemical spray on officers protecting the Capitol — pleaded guilty on Wednesday. His sentencing was set for Jan. 17, 2025, just days before the next president of the United States will be inaugurated at the U.S. Capitol.

Allies of former President Donald Trump who control the Georgia State Election Board approved a controversial new rule Friday requiring counties to hand-count the number of ballots cast at polling places on Election Day, despite bipartisan objections from election officials and poll workers.

The vote was 3-2, with the three Trump allies supporting the move, and a Democratic and independent GOP-appointed member of the board strongly opposing it, calling it an added step that could delay the results of the presidential election in the battleground state.

The office of Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr, a Republican, previously warned the GOP-run board that this move would likely be unlawful because state laws don’t allow local election workers to hand-count ballots before the votes are officially counted.

“These proposed rules are not tethered to any statute — and are, therefore, likely the precise type of impermissible legislation that agencies cannot do,” his office wrote.

Carr’s office also warned the board that it might be too close to the election to make these changes – and that judges might even block these changes because of long-standing precedents that favor maintaining the status quo on the eve of elections.

Most answers raise more questions.
A: We're gonna vote the bums out!
Q: How did the bums get in?
 
This works in any thread: "Insults are not an argument." And the rulers want the populace divided, because they fear revolution by a united populace.
 

Voter registration is spiking, particularly among young adults​


Voter registration is breaking records as Election Day approaches, particularly among young people, many of whom are first-time voters.

On Tuesday's National Voter Registration Day more than 150,000 people registered through Vote.org, the most the organization has ever seen on that day. The organization registered 279,400 voters in all of last year.
A huge percentage of the newly registered voters are young people, many voting for the first time.

According to Vote.org, voters under 35 made up 81% of Tuesday's registrations, with the biggest spike among 18-year-olds. On this year's National Voter Registration Day, 11% of those registered were 18, which is 53% higher than on the same day four years ago.

"We're really seeing a surge in 18-year-olds registering to vote." Vote.org CEO Andrea Hailey said. "We know that we can onboard the next generation of voters into our democracy if we can get people to register and get out to these elections."
