#AdvocacyUSBrookingsInstitutionThomasMann and #AdvocacyUSTheAmericanEnterpriseInstituteNormanOrnstein "The GOP has become an insurgent outlier in American politics. It is ideologically extreme; scornful of compromise; unmoved by conventional understanding of facts, evidence and science; and dismissive of the legitimacy of its political opposition. ...
What happened? Of course, there were larger forces at work beyond the realignment of the South. They included the mobilization of social conservatives after the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision, the anti-tax movement launched in 1978 by California's Proposition 13, the rise of conservative talk radio after a congressional pay raise in 1989, and the emergence of Fox News and right-wing blogs. But the real move to the bedrock right starts with two names: Newt Gingrich and Grover Norquist.
From the day he entered Congress in 1979, Gingrich had a strategy to create a Republican majority in the House: convincing voters that the institution was so corrupt that anyone would be better than the incumbents, especially those in the Democratic majority. It took him 16 years, but by bringing ethics charges against Democratic leaders; provoking them into overreactions that enraged Republicans and united them to vote against Democratic initiatives; exploiting scandals to create even more public disgust with politicians; and then recruiting GOP candidates around the country to run against Washington, Democrats and Congress, Gingrich accomplished his goal. ...
The GOP's evolution has become too much for some longtime Republicans. Former senator Chuck Hagel of Nebraska called his party 'irresponsible' in an interview with the Financial Times in August, at the height of the debt-ceiling battle. 'I think the Republican Party is captive to political movements that are very ideological, that are very narrow,' he said. 'I've never seen so much intolerance as I see today in American politics.'
And Mike Lofgren, a veteran Republican congressional staffer, wrote an anguished diatribe last year about why he was ending his career on the Hill after nearly three decades. 'The Republican Party is becoming less and less like a traditional political party in a representative democracy and becoming more like an apocalyptic cult, or one of the intensely ideological authoritarian parties of 20th century Europe,' he wrote on the Truthout Web site.
Shortly before Rep. West went off the rails with his accusations of communism in the Democratic Party, political scientists Keith Poole and Howard Rosenthal, who have long tracked historical trends in political polarization, said their studies of congressional votes found that Republicans are now more conservative than they have been in more than a century. Their data show a dramatic uptick in polarization, mostly caused by the sharp rightward move of the GOP."

Addendum: #WebsiteHuffPostLeeMoran "Longtime political scientist Norman Ornstein on Wednesday explained why he believes the 2024 election is likely to go down as 'the most significant and most destructive' in America's history.
The United States has previously chosen 'bad' and 'incompetent' presidents, Ornstein acknowledged to Zeteo's Mehdi Hasan.
But, reflecting on Donald Trump's victory, Ornstein pointed out that 'we have not elected a president who has made clear during the campaign that he will be a dictator on day one and will destroy or shred the Constitution to whatever degree he feels it is necessary.'
'Even worse,' continued the emeritus scholar at the conservative American Enterprise Institute think tank, are Trump's 'enablers around him from the Supreme Court through the other institutions.'
'My fear is not just Donald Trump, it is that the guardrails we have built up over two and a half centuries are not going to hold,' he added.
Later, Ornstein expressed his concerns that normal restraints on Trump just don't exist. 'Maybe the worst won't happen, but it's going to be damn close,' he warned." https://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/norman-ornstein-2024-election-donald-trump-win_n_672c87e5e4b01cfbdad3d9b4 #IRLJournalistMehdiHasan #VlogZeteo

Context: response to tweet (including a screen-shot) of page 24 of the #OrgUSFedFoodAndDrugAdministrationFDA https://www.fda.gov/media/151733/ 'Summary Basis for Regulatory Action' (8 November 2021) - downloadble from: https://www.fda.gov/media/151733/download i.e.
"Moreover, since vaccine-associated myocarditis/pericarditis is the most clinically significant identified risk, FDA undertook a quantitative benefit-risk assessment to model the excess risk of myocarditis/pericarditis vs. the expected benefits of preventing COVID- 19 and associated hospitalizations, ICU admissions, and deaths. For estimation of risk, the model took a conservative approach by relying on non-chart-confirmed cases from a US healthcare claims database (OPTUM) that could provide a control group and greater confidence in denominators for vaccine exposures. Thus, the estimates of excess risk in this model are higher than the rates estimated from reports to VAERS (an uncontrolled passive surveillance system), with an estimated excess risk approaching 200 cases per million vaccinated males 16-17 years of age (the age/sex-stratified group with the highest risk). For estimation of benefit, the model output was highly dependent on the assumed COVID-19 incidence, as well as assumptions about vaccine efficacy and duration of protection. The assessment therefore considered a range of scenarios including but not limited to a 'most likely' scenario associated with recent Delta variant surge and diminished vaccine effectiveness (70% overall, 80% against COVID-19 hospitalization) compared to that observed in the clinical trial. The 'worst-case' scenario with low COVID-19 incidence reflecting the July 2021 nadir and the same somewhat diminished vaccine effectiveness as in the 'most likely' scenario.
For males and females 18 years of age and older and for females 16-17 years of age, even before accounting for morbidity prevented from non-hospitalized COVID-19, the model predicts that the benefits of prevented COVID-19 hospitalizations, ICU admissions and deaths would clearly outweigh the predicted excess risk of vaccine-associated myocarditis/pericarditis under all conditions examined. For males 16-17 years of age, the model predicts that the benefits of prevented COVID-19 hospitalizations, ICU admissions and deaths would clearly outweigh the predicted excess risk of vaccine-associated myocarditis/pericarditis under the 'most likely' scenario, but that predicted excess cases of vaccine-associated myocarditis/pericarditis would exceed COVID-19 hospitalizations and deaths under the 'worst case' scenario. However, this predicted numerical imbalance does not account for the greater severity and length of hospitalization, on average, for COVID-19 compared with vaccine-associated myocarditis/pericarditis. Additionally, the 'worst case' scenario model predicts prevention of >13,000 cases of non-hospitalized COVID-19 per million vaccinated males 16-17 years of age, which would include prevention of clinically significant morbidity and/or long-term sequelae associated with some of these cases. Finally, the model does not account for indirect societal/public health benefits of vaccination. Considering these additional factors, FDA concluded that even under the 'worst case' scenario the benefits of vaccination sufficiently outweigh risks to support approval of the vaccine in males 16-17 years of age." #OtheringOutGroupAntiVaxxer
Supplementary: "CDC continues to recommend that everyone ages 5 years and older get vaccinated for COVID-19. The known risks of COVID-19 illness and its related, possibly severe complications, such as long-term health problems, hospitalization, and even death, far outweigh the potential risks of having a rare adverse reaction to vaccination, including the possible risk of myocarditis or pericarditis." https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/vaccines/safety/myocarditis.html #_Focal

Addendum: very reminiscent of arguments for #PowerControlSegregationApartheid such as: "In January 1944, D. F. Malan, speaking as Leader of the Opposition, became the first person to employ it in the South African parliament. A few months later he elaborated, 'I do not use the term 'segregation', because it has been interpreted as a fencing off (afhok), but rather 'apartheid', which will give the various races the opportunity of uplifting themselves on the basis of what is their own.'" (Giliomee, 2003, p. 374).

#EDUCAMcGillUniversityJonathanJarry "What does an antivaxxer and a far-right activist have in common? If the thought of someone who opposes vaccines brings to mind tie-dye shirts and tree hugging, your answer may be 'nothing.' But clearly, some do have a commonality: protesting the COVID-19 lockdowns. Coverage from these protests often show people holding signs slapped with antivaccine rhetoric next to pro-militia activists and white supremacists. This phenomenon can also be seen among homeschoolers according to Anne Borden, a pro-vaccine homeschooler who fights against phony autism cures. 'The first antivaxxers I ever met were left-leaning unschoolers when I was an unschooled teenager. They were very much a part of the early efforts to 'stop the Food and Drug Administration' from regulating alternative medicine. What has happened in recent years is that this demographic of homeschooling is being now recruited by the radical right on social media, and some are turning right. And this is very concerning.'" https://www.mcgill.ca/oss/article/covid-19-pseudoscience/anti-vaccine-movement-2020
