Some Kentucky Republicans want to ban naturalized Americans from holding public office, as the GOP drives ever-further into xenophobia. www.lpm.org/news/2026-01 ...

"Amend KRS 67.060, 83A.040, 160.180, and 262.240, to require a candidate for county commissioner, city mayor, city legislative body member, board of education member, and soil and water conservation district supervisor to be a natural born citizen of the United States and no other country and a national of only the United States in order to hold each respective office."

This "No-Nothing" xenophobic poison will spread to other state legislatures through the sinister ALEC (American Legislative Exchange Council) which will make hatemongers like Randy "The Hebrew Ham Sandwich" Fine (R-FL), Islamophobe Laura Loomer, disgraced ex-NYS Governor Andrew Cuomo, NYS gubernatorial candidate Bruce Blakeman (R-Nassau County), shyster Alan "I kept my underwear on" Dershowitz, and AIPAC happy. They despise Congresswoman Ilhan Omar (D-MN) and NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani and wish to prevent more progressives, non-whites, Muslims, or Arab-Americans from attaining political office in the US.

It's almost as if they know they can't compete.

So, instead of improving themselves, they simply want to shut the door on people.

Disenfranchise voters and potential office seekers while bleaching Amerikkka.

Nothing positive for the people but more exclusion.

More exclusion is right.

The GOP is the home of xenophobes and racists.

I really doubt that this old guy will ever respect the Republican Party again, ever. They knew full well who Trump was, what he was doing, but instead of risking their jobs they bent a knee, and kissed anything and everything trump demanded they kiss.

@11 This thought experiment works:

In any sentence you read or write today, substitute the word "Republican" with "Confederate" and "Northern Republican" with "Copperhead" or "Know Nothing."

Examples:

"Confederate Senator Mitch McConnell (KY) again vetoed legislation to restrict the proliferation of firearms in the US."

"Know-Nothing Senator Chuck Schumer (NY) declined to endorse foreign-born Muslim Zohran Mamdani for Mayor of NYC."

"Copperhead Senator Susan Collins (ME) voted to confirm misogynist and accused sexual predator Brett Kavanaugh to become a Justice on the Supreme Court."

Yes instead of people that appreciate being American and learned about the structure of our government let's limit it to lazy entitled --------- that can't be bothered with what at one time made America the envy of the world.

I'd like to see a bill that excludes from federal, state or local office, anyone that is also a citizen of another country.
