American papers are filled with pundits speculating about the horrors the Taliban may inflict on the people of Afghanistan, particularly its women. Less attention has been paid to the horrors Texas Republicans — the Taliban wing of the Republican Party — are inflicting on the State of Texas. In total control of the state, Republicans have a free hand that they’ve used to enforce extremism.
Dubbing them the Texas Taliban isn’t just name-calling. The parallels are chilling. The Taliban scorn democracy. They see their opponents as heretics and heathens. The Taliban are bigots, rejecting people of other religions. The Taliban enforce a religious zealotry with suppression of women a central tenet. The Taliban invoke religious law to supplant the civil law. The Taliban reject modernity, scorn science, and seek return to a fundamentalist society that never was.
In the last two weeks, the Taliban honored an agreement to help the U.S. military get 123,000 Afghans and Americans out of the country and promised to do more as they seek to work with other nations.
In that same period, the Texas legislature and Abbott sought to restrict voting and take away a woman’s right to self-determination. Who are we to not trust a newly emerging Taliban as it seeks its place in the family of nations while being asked to trust a Republican Government of Texas that attacks democracy and the rights of women?
It’s the old tried-and-true Confederate State of Texas, the last state to inform its slaves they were free, for which we now celebrate Juneteenth.

So sayeth the irrelevant Rev.
“The most successful educational approach to the Negro is through a religious appeal. We do not want word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population, and the Minister is the man who can straighten out that idea if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members.”

“Covertly invest into non-White areas, invest in ghetto abortion clinics. Help to raise money for free abortions, in primarily non-White areas. Perhaps abortion clinic syndicates throughout North America, that primarily operate in non-White areas and receive tax support, should be promoted.”

“Colored people are like human weeds and are to be exterminated.”

Actually, Pashtuns are rumored to be the lost tribe of Ephraim. Only rumored, though.
The Taliban wing? You Dems are the Taliban, you F***ING moron.
Taliban?? Is that the new Nazi, since it been used to much that people are ignoring the term? I guess you needed a new horror word to insult Republicans with.
The parallels are chilling. The Taliban scorn democracy. They see their opponents as heretics and heathens. The Taliban are bigots, rejecting people of other religions.
Just like the Chicago Sun Times...as do all leftists.

Well, he ain’t a spring chicken anymore, that’s for sure.
From the article:
“In that same period, the Texas legislature and Abbott sought to...take away a woman’s right to self-determination.”
No, they sought to end a woman’s right to murder her own child. Your right to do what you want with your own body ends where another’s life begins.
Je$$e didn’t write this. Too coherent, even if just as hateful and Satanic.
Dollars, baby. Dollars. Sell your soul and you can go really far in life. In death, well, that’s when you got to pay for your “success.”
