-- Mass- and school-shooters kill people, but Republicans fight for killers' right to continue to buy semi-automatic weapons, high-capacity magazines, and "cop-killer" bullets.

-- Speaking of cops, they can kill, too. Far too often, and it's got to be really tough on the good cops. But Republicans fight any effort to professionalize our police in America. If anything, they work to the contrary.

-- Health insurance payment denials kill senior citizens, but Republicans continue to defend George W. Bush's "Medicare Advantage" scam.

-- Autocracy and strongman government kills people, but Republicans embrace both over democracy, which today they are actively working against.

Is there any area where Republicans will put the interests of life above making a buck or pandering to their base? Outside of their affection for fertilized eggs, I can't find a single one.

Thank you for reading The Hartmann Report. This post is public so feel free to share it.
