Right, the answer isn't to abandon the party to these weasels.
The answer is to flood the party with people who will take it over and transform it.

Hey, a lot of people are talking about changing affiliation from Democratic to Independent.
Let me tell you why you shouldn’t do that in Colorado.
One of the main ways to get a primary challenge candidate on a ballot is to caucus for your party. You need to be registered as a Dem to caucus.

It’s such an obvious point but this is an organization predicated on the idea that it would fight back against Big Government Imposition, rolling over because it likes what’s being imposed. Another example of how shallow so much of the right’s Gadsden-waving Constitution-hugging always was.

This story is NUTS. A southern sheriff celebrated as a folk hero (and memorialized in the Walking Tall movies) almost certainly murdered his wife, faked his own shooting, then blamed it all on an ambush by the "Dixie Mafia" he was investigating.
His fans today refuse to believe it—or don't care!

Stunning story by @jesspish.bsky.social: He became the most famous sheriff in the U.S. after his hunt for his wife's "real killers" inspired a $60 million 1973 blockbuster ($430 million in today dollars). It was all a lie and his hometown can't deal.
