I'm not sure. I lived in Idaho for 3 years. The mainstream Republicans there would be considered right wing most places, and these upstarts are even more to the right. And there are a lot of them.Interesting, but surely that "make our own nation" group is much the smaller of the two. (?)
Maybe, but I wouldn't be supprised if there was a large overlap.Interesting, but surely that "make our own nation" group is much the smaller of the two. (?)
The idea still seems rather tame when compared with all the violent, 'hate America,' destructive groups that have been committing crimes.I'm not sure. I lived in Idaho for 3 years. The mainstream Republicans there would be considered right wing most places, and these upstarts are even more to the right. And there are a lot of them.
So I guess federalism is dead then. Why shouldn't Idaho be able to decide what it's education policy should be?
They want to return states rights in this nation which their rights as citizens are not taken away by Washington politicians they did not vote for. Do you get that? Our votes need to matter.
The danger of any one group having all the power is CORUPTION!!! Which group can be immune???BOISE, Idaho (AP) — The dream world for Idaho’s ascendant far right is one where state lawmakers run a sovereign nation-state free of federal oversight. It would be a place where they can outlaw all abortions, dictate what is taught in schools, have complete say over public health rules and gun laws, and take control of federal public lands, which make up more than 60% of the state...
Far-right Idaho Republicans battle to control party, state
I’ve never been to Idaho. It sounds like a political insane asylum. Do these far right wing-nuts really think they can become a sovereign nation-state, confiscate federal land, and reject all federal regulations?
Looks like Idaho has more than just potatoes buried in the ground. Like their brains, too.
Giving the states the right to decide these things is what needs to be done.A law banning all abortion runs counter to current rulings and will be struck down unless they are over turned. Pretending this is not the case does not make it so.
Who ARE these people you are referring to who promote baby eating and blood drinking?Don’t act like left-wing hotheads. Use reasoned and rational arguments to support your positions. Not crazy trash talk about stolen elections. And baby eating, blood drinking conspirators who’ll take everyone’s guns away....
No, there isn't. There's no one who advocates the list you've given us. And that's part of the problem--one side or any side on the political scene grossly overstating what the other side wants or has advocated.close all the churches, and overrun the country with drug-dealing foreigners. Sadly, there’s a crackpot fringe on the far right who actually believe this claptrap.
No. We as citizens in this country should not have our states right taken away. Who is president and and who is congress should have no power to take that away. That is the problem right now. If it continues to grow, we may as well not even have states, nor a senate.Then—by legal means—work to elect members of Congress and a President who share that vision.
Left swing hot heads?Don’t act like left-wing hotheads.
Yeah plenty of clap trap on many sides. Just allow each state their right, and let their representatives represent them fully. Not Washington D.C.Use reasoned and rational arguments to support your positions. Not crazy trash talk about stolen elections. And baby eating, blood drinking conspirators who’ll take everyone’s guns away, close all the churches, and overrun the country with drug-dealing foreigners. Sadly, there’s a crackpot fringe on the far right who actually believe this claptrap.
States do not have the right to override the rights granted in the constitution.Giving the states the right to decide these things is what needs to be done.
the current ruling takes away states rights.
This decision should be left to the states as it infringes upon individual rights. Nobody should be forced to go against their conscience to fund abortion even up to birth and that is what it comes to. Nobodies right to abortion is taken away in this nation if they can secure one in another state.The whole point of the Supremacy Clause is that the Constitution overrides states rights.
Why then were those who opposed it due to their religious conscience denied by that decision?
Just like no ones first amendment rights are violated so long as they can drive to another state to practice a religion banned in their home state.Nobodies right to abortion is taken away in this nation if they can secure one in another state.
So do many things.This decision should be left to the states as it infringes upon individual rights.
Nobody is, at least on the federal level. ABortion can be still restricted after the point of viability.Nobody should be forced to go against their conscience to fund abortion even up to birth and that is what it comes to.
"You have certain rights. Just not in the whole country" Yeah, that's not how it works.Nobodies right to abortion is taken away in this nation if they can secure one in another state.

On the contrary, it was a simple follow-up question. You said that certain people who believe certain things are a threat, and I asked whom you were referring to specifically.You seem to have missed my point completely.
Then does QAnon advocate "baby eating" and "blood drinking?" That seems pretty extreme, if true. But it is true? And if it's true, how many people are we talking about?I’m obviously talking about QAnon. Of course, no sane person promotes or advocates what QAnon is accused of doing.
