GOP Senators Who Might Block Kleptocratic Trump Nominations Gabe Stein GOP Senators Who Might Block Kleptocratic Trump Nominations Gabriel Stein Published on: Nov 16, 2016 License: Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License (CC-BY 4.0) Gabe Stein GOP Senators Who Might Block Kleptocratic Trump Nominations Here’s your moment of terror for today, courtesy of Vox’s Matt Yglesias. 100 days to save the Republic The transition period is the last best hope to avoid the systemic corruption of American institutionswww.vox.com You can believe this argument, or not. But it is true that the independence of majority senators is one of the checks in our system, and that the first appointments are a battle worth fighting. And the good news is, Trump, and many of his potential nominees, are deeply unpopular in their own party. Using this Atlantic piece, I’ve compiled a list of GOP senators who either did not or only tepidly supported Trump during the election and who may be convinced to take a stand. Even though I don’t agree with many of these people, many of them are courageous, patriotic people of principle who will do what’s right…if we convince them. The problem is that everything will be lined up against GOP senators taking a stand. The GOP will consider it treason. Many of these senators’ own supporters (especially the ones in red states) who voted for Trump will be furious. In other words, it will fall to us to do the convincing by pressuring the heck out of them, largely with phone calls and letters. Truth be told, I’m a bit out of my depth here. I don’t know the best way to start this fight. I’ll look for the ways (or you can tell me by responding) and report back. The good news is, we have some time before these appointments start. I suspect that right now, if you live in one of these states, the best thing you can probably do is write a physical letter to your senator’s local office letting them know that you’re counting on them to make sure Trump’s nominees are qualified and not compromised by ties to foreign entities or Trump’s businesses. Then, when the appointments are announced, you call the office asking them to oppose. The List Kentucky: Rand Paul (202) 224–4343 A fiercely independent libertarian who has often broken with his own party, Paul has already indicated he will not accept a Secretary of State who approved of the war in Iraq. Maine: Susan Collins (202) 224–2523 2 Gabe Stein GOP Senators Who Might Block Kleptocratic Trump Nominations A moderate from a blue state known for its independent streak who didn’t vote for Trump. Arizona: John McCain (202) 224–2235 A deeply patriotic hawk with an independent streak who is already speaking out against Trump’s cozying up to Putin and Russia. South Carolina: Lindsey Graham (202) 224–5972 A hawk who was unabashedly anti-Trump during the primaries. He’s already promised to check Trump on immigration and foreign relations and called for an investigation into Russian influence during the election. Nebraska: Ben Sasse (202) 224–4224 One of Trump’s most out-spoken GOP critics during the election who wrote at length about why he couldn’t support him. Unfortunately, Sasse is currently tweeting about paid protestors, but who knows, he may be convincable. Utah: Mike Lee (202) 224–5444 Lee is apparently Ted Cruz’s only and best friend, so make of that what you will. But the guy did apparently fly to Florida to try to block Trump from winning the nomination there. He’s also a devout Mormon and outspoken libertarian from a state whose Mormon population was ambivalent at best about Trump, and voted for Evan McMullin in protest. Arizona: Jeff Flake (202) 224–4521 Flake is a devout Mormon, stood up to Trump during the election (Trump told him he’d lose his nonexistent reelection bid as a result), was critical of his party’s SCOTUS obstructionism, didn’t vote for Trump and seems to be tepid, at best, about the early transition. Alaska: Lisa Murkowski (202) 224–6665 3 Gabe Stein GOP Senators Who Might Block Kleptocratic Trump Nominations A moderate who lost her Republican primary to a tea partier on 2010, then won election as a write-in candidate. Didn’t vote for Trump. Nevada: Dean Heller (202) 224–6244 Heller is up for reelection in 2018 in an increasingly blue state where Hispanics surged to defeat Trump. He didn’t vote for Trump. Colorado: Cory Gardner (202) 224–5941 An outspoken Trump critic from an increasingly blue state. Did not vote for Trump. He’s also leading the NRSC for 2018, so will be particularly tuned in to how constituents respond to Senators’ actions when it comes to Trump. Alaska: Dan Sullivan (202) 224–3004 Was firmly in the anti-Trump camp during the election. Ohio: Rob Portman (202) 224–3353 A swing state senator who campaigned as a moderate. His initial post-election comments indicate he’s probably not going to be a check. But maybe? South Carolina: Tim Scott (202) 224–6121 Apparently, somehow, Scott voted for Trump. But he did kinda-sorta agree with Black Lives Matter about police abuse, famously noting that he himself has been stopped many, many times by Capitol Police. Florida: Marco Rubio (202) 224–3041 A swing state senator who has dabbled in compromise on immigration, sure to be one of the hottest issues this year, in the past. In the end, Rubio voted for Trump because he is a coward. But he was still outspoken in his belief that Trump is unfit for the presidency. If others lead, Rubio might follow. 4 Gabe Stein GOP Senators Who Might Block Kleptocratic Trump Nominations Pennsylvania: Pat Toomey (202) 224–4254 Swing state senator who never said how he was voting. He won Pennsylvania by much more than Trump did. South Dakota: John Thune (202) 224–2321 Thune called for Trump to step down after the Access Hollywood tape. But he also previously endorsed Trump. So…who knows. Texas: Ted Cruz (202) 224–5922 Ted Cruz is a gutless, spineless excuse for a human who managed to ultimately support Trump despite the fact that the President-elect criticized his wife’s looks, suggested his father might have assassinated President Kennedy, started a Cruz birther movement, said he wouldn’t even accept a Cruz endorsement, and attacked his faith. Also, nobody who knows Cruz likes him (except “best friend” Mike Lee), and he might be the zodiac killer. But as we can see from the above above, he’s just craven enough that if other people are rewarder for taking a stand, he might, too. By Gabriel Stein on November 17, 2016.

The respondents were matched to a sampling frame on gender, age, race, and education. The frame was constructed by stratified sampling from the full 2016 American Community Survey (ACS) 1-year sample with selection within strata by weighted sampling with replacements (using the person weights on the public use file). The matched cases were weighted to the sampling frame using propensity scores. The matched cases and the frame were combined and a logistic regression was estimated for inclusion in the frame. The propensity score function included age, gender, race/ethnicity, years of education, and region. The propensity scores were grouped into deciles of the estimated propensity score in the frame and post-stratified according to these deciles. The weights were then post-stratified on 2016 Presidential vote choice, and a four-way stratification of gender, age (4-categories), race (4- categories), and education (4-categories), to produce the final weight. ================================================================================ Variable List ================================================================================

  • Mormonism As Meme in Government-Sponsored
    MORMONISM AS MEME IN GOVERNMENT-SPONSORED INFORMATION OPERATIONS ON TWITTER1 Spencer Greenhalgh2 ABSTRACT A general suspicion of Mormonism in American politics and media dates back to the 19th century and continues today. Weber (2019) has described Mormonism as a "meme" that is malleable enough to symbolize different things for different audiences in different contexts. In this study, I examine the presence of "Mormonism as meme" in 511 posts composed by government-sponsored Twitter accounts as part of information operations before, during, and after the 2016 U.S. presidential election. I retrieved these posts from a dataset of government-sponsored tweets made available by Twitter and used a mix of computational and human methods to determine: 1) which countries used Mormonism as meme, 2) whether government-sponsored accounts originated or amplified these messages, 3) what identities government-sponsored accounts adopted, and 4) how government-sponsored accounts used Mormonism as a meme. This study's results indicate that six governments invoked Mormonism as part of their information operations during this time frame. Venezuela pursued a strategy that depended on using pro-Trump accounts to repeatedly share messages describing Mormons as communitarian and insular. Other countries (including Russia and Iran) pursued more subtle strategies, more often retweeting others' posts than writing their own. However, they still invoked aspects of Mormonism that called into question its compatibility with liberal, conservative, or broadly American values. As a whole, these posts correspond with both Weber's (2019) description of Mormonism as malleable meme and information operations' twin purposes of influencing the 2016 election and dividing Americans.

Putting the “Fertility Gap” to the Test Billy Gage Raley A Thesis in the Field of Government for the Degree of Master of Liberal Arts in Extension Studies Harvard University March 2021 Copyright © 2020 Billy Gage Raley Abstract During the 2004 election cycle, journalists discovered a correlation between state fertility rates and presidential election results. The media observed that states with high fertility rates tended to support Bush, and states with low fertility rates tended to support Gore and Kerry. This phenomenon came to be known as the “Fertility Gap.” After political pundits started discussing the Fertility Gap, a few scholars also picked up on the topic. To date, discussion of the Fertility Gap has been limited to elections between 2000 to 2012. A longitudinal study of the Fertility Gap has never been conducted.
