Episode 484: Arnie Arnesen Attitude June 11 2024

Attitude with Arnie Arnesen

Part 1:

We talk with Giles Bissonnette, the NH Director of the ACLU. We discuss the recent ruling by the US Court about the “Divisive Concepts” law enacted by the NH legislature. It was ruled as unconstitutional because of its vagueness. This is the first time in the US when such a law was overturned, although many states have created such laws. These have been designed to be ambiguous, although there are penalties. They have created a culture of fear among teachers and others. In this way, they are similar to the laws regarding abortion. We discuss the effect of such laws on disability outreach, and any kind of education.

Part 2:

We talk with John Nichols, of The Nation Magazine. We discuss the Project 2025 plan, and its implications for many government agencies and departments. The overall goal of this plan is to dismantle government, and weaken democracy. One example is the idea of demonstration elections. We discuss these in some detail, and how this will affect democratic institutions. The document as a whole demonstrates disrespect for democracy, and is important to understand.
