Polarization, Democracy, and Political Violence in the United States: What the Research

American voters are less ideologically polarized than they think they are, and that misperception is greatest for the most politically engaged people.

Another powerful player of inner circle calls out the lies :

Milley disputes claim he recommended Trump attack Iran

 

Milley, an Army general who is retiring at the end of the month as the nation’s top military officer, was Trump’s chairman of the Joint Chiefs during the final 16 months of his time in office. He had an outsized role in some of the most consequential events of Trump’s presidency, including the response to the Black Lives Matter protests in 2020 and actions he took after January 6, 2001, when he was concerned that Trump could go “rogue.”

 

Marshmallow Mark Milley?

 

How anyone can take him seriously with his past record amazes me 🤪

Ahh, we just mis-understand the other side.  The Democrat/Leftist/Regressive policies seem pretty clear to me, and I am not a Republican.  That being said, CEIP is about as far left as the Manhattan Institute is to the right, so anything is to be taken with a grain of salt.

Not to worry, Old Joe Biden will open the US for more with his Slow, Steady, Corrupt, and Petulant policies.

Since Jim Acosta is one of the most petulant Leftist media activists, this probably belongs here.

 

CNN Gets Roasted for Absurd Chyron Warning Constitution Is 'Outdated, Puts Democracy at Risk'

 

The word came on “Newsroom,” anchored by former CNN White House correspondent Jim Acosta. Acosta interviewed two Harvard professors of government who are of the opinion that the grand system of compromise, checks and balances devised by the Founders in Philadelphia in 1787 is as obsolete as the quill pens they used to write it down.

 

Accompanying the interview was a chyron at the bottom of the screen declaring (in all caps): “Scholars Warn Outdated Constitution Has Put Democracy At Risk.”

Am I surprised at the element of “blame others” and “fear mongering” in that statement…Nah, it is SOP

Marjorie Taylor Greene at a white nationalist conference? Probably Joe Biden’s fault.

Marjorie Taylor Greene spoke at a white nationalist event in Orlando, but who among us hasn’t accidentally addressed a crowd of white supremacists?

I believe Old Petulant Corrupt Joe was pretty close to some KKK members and segregationists?  So I guess the sub-headline is correct, but Greene is not the President, so who cares except for her constituents.

Seems there were some laughing at the US President.  Not surprising.

Trump Tells Republicans to Shut Down the Government So He Can Get Away With His Many Alleged Crimes

 

Back in 2019, Donald Trump oversaw the longest government shutdown in US history—one that involved furloughed federal employees being told they could barter services with their landlords to make rent—because Democrats wouldn’t give him $5.6 billion for his wall. Now, he thinks the government should be shut down again—so that the Justice Department’s criminal cases against him

US Joins List of Top 50 Conflict-Ridden Countries

The United States is the only Western nation among the world’s 50 most conflict-ridden countries, according to new research that measures political violence around the globe.

The U.S. ranking is driven by rising levels of political violence and a proliferation of far-right groups in the country in recent years, according to the Armed Conflict Location & Event Data Project, or ACLED

 

The U.S. was rated as “turbulent,” along with 19 other countries, mostly in Africa and Asia, including Libya, Ghana and Chad.
