Constitutional Crisis! The GOP's Quest for Tyranny

from Black Politics Today · host Black Politics Today

Do you remember when the constitution actually meant something? Do you remember when it actually meant something to the breast pocket carrying Republican Party? Remember when anything the Democrats did was 'Violated the Constitution?' In 2016, everything about the U.S. Constitution went out the window with the election of Donald Trump. Today's Republican Party can't seemed to remember anything about the Constitution or the Rule of Law. From Guliani admitting that his scheduled trip to Ukraine was designed to get the Ukrainian government to investigate claims on behalf of Donald Trump to help him in his re-election bid, to the investigation one of Trumps Presidential opponent, Democrat former Vice President Joe Biden's son, in an effort to dig up dirt on Biden. In fact, in five states the GOP is on another mission to overturn Roe v. Wade by passing legislation at the state level that would prohibit a womans constitutional right to have an abortion. Their strategic intent is to pass legislation in republican controlled states in order to eventually get the conservative leaning Supreme Court to overturn the 14th & 15th Admendments. With Ohio and Alabama (proposed) having the two most severe versions of these anti-abortion rights laws; the GOP is moving swiftly to pass these laws and force women underground, causing even more deaths as a result of illegal abortion procedures.  Joining me tonight is Ohio State Senator Sandra Williams and Alabama State Senator Bobby Singleton, along with Political Strategist Nate Benham; Karlton Thomas, Director of Entrepreneurship, Urban League; Rebekah Caruthers, and GOP Trumpers, Greg Stewart and Ralph Chittams.
