Record Group 233: Records of the U.S. House of RepresentativesSeries: General Records

This item, H.R. 7152, the Civil Rights Act of 1964, faced strong opposition in the House Rules Committee. Howard Smith, Chairman of the committee, refused to schedule hearings for the bill. Emanuel Celler, Chairman of the Judiciary Committee, attempted to use this discharge petition to move the bill out of committee without holding hearings. The petition failed to gain the required majority of Congress (218 signatures), but forced Chairman Smith to schedule hearings.

LETTERS FROM AN AMERICAN

December 18, 2023

HEATHER COX RICHARDSON

DEC 18, 2023

Reporters at ProPublica have uncovered yet more news about the right-wing network of wealthy donors who have supported Supreme Court justice Clarence Thomas. According to Justin Elliott, Joshua Kaplan, Alex Mierjeski, and Brett Murphy, in January 2000, on a plane flight home from a conservative conference, Thomas complained to Representative Cliff Stearns (R-FL) about his salary. He warned that if lawmakers didn’t give Supreme Court justices a pay raise, “one or more justices will leave soon.”

After the trip, Stearns wrote to Thomas that he agreed “it is worth a lot to Americans to have the constitution properly interpreted.” Stearns immediately set out to pass legislation separating the salaries of Supreme Court justices from the rest of the judiciary, and then raising pay for the Supreme Court justices alone. But the top administrative official of the judiciary, L. Ralph Mecham, in June 2000 wrote to then–chief justice William Rehnquist to suggest that this was the wrong approach for this “delicate matter.”

“From a tactical point of view,” Mecham wrote, “it will not take the Democrats and liberals in Congress very long to figure out that the prime beneficiaries who might otherwise leave the court presumably are Justices Thomas and Scalia. The Democrats might be perfectly happy to have them leave and would see little incentive to act on separate legislation devoted solely to Supreme Court justices if the apparent purpose is to keep Justices Scalia and Thomas on the Court. Moreover, the fact that Representative Stearns is a conservative Republican may not help dissuade the Democrats and liberals from this view.”

Mecham distinguished between Republicans he thought of as “liberals,” and those, presumably like himself, Rehnquist, Thomas, and Scalia, who were pushing “to have the constitution properly interpreted.” By this, he meant those who wanted the concept of “originalism” to undermine the federal government’s regulation of business, provision of a basic social safety net, promotion of infrastructure, and protection of civil rights, principles on which “liberal” Republicans and Democrats agreed.

Although the extremist faction has now captured the Republican Party, as late as 2000 there were enough “liberals” in the Republican Party that members of the extremist faction worried they could not enact their chosen program. So they must have the Supreme Court. Stearns told the ProPublica reporters that Thomas’s “importance as a conservative [as they called themselves] was paramount…. We wanted to make sure he felt comfortable in his job and was being paid properly.”

About this time, wealthy Republican donors began to provide Thomas and his wife Ginni with expensive vacations and gifts. Ginni went to work for the Heritage Foundation, making a salary in the low six figures. Yale law school professor George Priest, who has joined Thomas and billionaire donor Harlan Crow on vacation, says that Crow “views Thomas as a Supreme Court justice as having a limited salary. So he provides benefits for him.”

That is, a Republican billionaire donor “provides benefits” for a Supreme Court justice who voted in favor of—among other things—the 2010 Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission decision that reversed campaign finance restrictions in place for over 100 years, permitting corporations and outside groups to spend unlimited funds on elections, and the 2013 Shelby County v. Holder decision that gutted the 1965 Voting Rights Act protecting minority voting rights in the United States.

The determination of wealthy Republicans to control our political system for their own economic benefit is now matched on the other side of the political equation by religious voters hellbent on overthrowing democracy to impose their religious will on the American majority.

After voters in Republican-dominated states have tried to protect the right to abortion in the wake of the Supreme Court’s 2022 Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization decision overturning the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision that recognized the constitutional right to abortion, antiabortion forces are trying to stop voters from having the right to decide the matter. They are trying to prevent voters from signing petitions to put such measures on ballots.

Steven Aden, the chief legal officer of the antiabortion group Americans United for Life, told Alice Miranda Ollstein and Megan Messerly of Politico: “Because we believe that abortion is truly about the right to life of human individuals in the womb, we don’t believe those rights should be subjected to majority vote.”

Breaking faith in democracy has led us to a place where the leading candidate for the Republican presidential nomination is openly praising dictators, trying to join the United States into a rising global authoritarian movement based in the idea that democracy, with its focus on equal rights, is destroying traditional society by getting rid of patriarchy, racial hierarchies, and heteronormative society. A Fox News poll released over the weekend showed that 3 in 10 Republicans agreed that “things in the U.S. are so far off track that we need a president willing to break some rules and laws to set things right.”

Today, Pope Francis undermined that argument when he said in a landmark ruling that Roman Catholic priests can bless same-sex couples. While this is not the same as the sacrament of heterosexual marriage, the Vatican’s doctrinal office said this is a sign that God welcomes everyone.

Pope Francis has tended to ignore the rise of right-wing extremism in the U.S. church but now appears to be defending his message that the church should be tolerant and welcoming in the face of the growing intersection of religion and authoritarianism. Last month, he relieved from duty Bishop Joseph H. Strickland of Tyler, Texas, who has vocally supported right-wing politics and openly revolted against the Pope’s positions.

There is a strong economic reason to reinforce the idea of democracy, as well. After forty years in which a minority worked to push tax cuts and deregulation with the argument that they would promote investment in the economy, the Biden administration quite deliberately has used the government not to prop up the “supply side,” but rather to bolster the “demand side.” Despite the history that showed such a system worked, economists and pundits warned that Biden’s policies would dump the U.S. into a terrible recession.

The 2023 numbers are in, and they show exactly what the U.S. Treasury under Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen predicted: inflation has dropped significantly, unemployment is at a low 3.7%, the economy grew at an astonishing 4.9% in the last quarter, and the stock and financial markets are at or near all-time highs.

The economic news is tangible proof that a government that serves the majority, rather than a wealthy few, works.

And don’t get me wrong there’s nothing wrong with spice books but like I just think it’s an issue when it affects your real life. And I just feel like these “dark romances” are just getting out of hand. I hear arguments that those book help people with trauma and that might be true, but me personally I don’t understand how the books that revolve around men taking advantage of women and being sexually brutal and toxic is healing to someone (speaking from someone who went through some trauma as well) and I can’t understand how constantly reading those books can heal someone.

And I understand that these books are written by women and intended for women so that’s probably why I just can’t relate to something like that. But I just find the whole genre and the executions of the situations to be extremely strange

pornographic books become a problem when the line btwn porn & actual reading material become blurred. that's where the issue lies, bc when you read ONLY for sexual gratification, you're gonna rot your brain!!

"dark romance" has changed a LOT, bc it's no longer dark romance. it's more "he's an abusive cunt and she thinks he loves her despite the constant and consistent emotional/sexual abuse". AND THAT'S A PROBLEM!!! and it's a problem bc not only is it FURTHERING the 50 Shades effect by continuing to normalise, romanticise and glorify abusive relationships, but it's also making it HARDER for actual dark romantic writers to create what they do.

I mean, I had this conversation w one of my psychiatrists, who IS a trauma specialist, and no. it doesn't help. it recontextualises what happened in the WORST ways and is akin to self harm. and I can speak as someone who HAS studied the effects of fiction real life that yes, when you normalise and glorify these things (my main focal point was JAWS, so in my instance, it's shark killing), then you WILL see a reflection in real life. and that doesn't mean it's ALWAYS bad, I mean, there's so much MORE representation of marginalised groups NOW than there was 30-50 years ago, and that's GREAT! but it's incredibly disingenuous to suggest that fiction ≠ reality or vice versa.

the reason why you find it strange is the reason why everybody else does: sexualising sexual abuse is FUCKING WEIRD! doesn't matter who it comes from, it's fucking weird, and yeah, when you put stuff like that onto the internet? people can, will, and SHOULD rightfully judge you for it. a shitty execution is, like, George R R Martin, who HAS written things poorly but has NOT glorified or romanticised it - it's not E. L. James, who PURPOSEFULLY turns it into pornographic content just to push a narrative that abuse is "sexy".

bc the thing is: dark topics CAN be handled well without becoming pornography. just off the top of my head: Lolita, The Colour Purple, Sapphire's Push, the Red Dragon Trilogy, American Psycho. all these books contain "dark" contents, but none of them sexualise or romanticise or glorify it at all. it's not an excuse to turn sexual abuse into wank material and then say you're writing "dark romance", bc you aren't - you are not Nabokov, or Alice Walker, or Sapphire, or Thomas Harris, or Bret Easton Ellis, or De Sade or Jeff Lindsay, or Ralph Ellison. you aren't. you're just a weirdo who gets off on rape porn.

The claim that Katherine was “unable fully to control her fleshly passions” is habitually quoted or paraphrased. For example, Ralph Griffiths and Roger Thomas state: “She was young and of such a lively and vivacious character that one chronicler asserted that she was ‘unable fully to curb her carnal passions’.” While Colin Richmond affirms, “[Edmund] was a dashing young man,” Katherine “was a lonely Frenchwoman in England, and, at thirty or thereabouts was, the rumour ran, oversexed.” The assumption that Katherine was actually lascivious has been given more weight by G.L. Harriss’s claim that the choice of Edmund as name for Katherine’s first son “must raise the suspicion that the father was Edmund Beaufort and that she contracted her disparaging marriage to Owen Tudor to save her lover the penalties of the statute of 1427.” In fact, there is no contemporary suggestion that Edmund Tudor was not Owen’s son, not even in the later fifteenth century when propagandist attempts were made to denigrate Henry Tudor’s ancestry. Yet Harriss’s hypothesis has entered academic discussion surrounding Katherine and her son nonetheless and is consistently mentioned if only to be refuted. This has been injurious to Katherine’s reputation. Richmond judges that “It seems unlikely that Edmund Beaufort would have taken so great a political risk as getting the queen dowager with child.” But he then offers the assessment of Edmund as “dashing” and Katherine as “oversexed” quoted above, continuing “Many stranger things have happened.” It is also notable that Edmund alone is here presented as being sensible of the risk involved in a sexual relationship. Whereas Katherine’s purportedly “oversexed” nature renders Harriss’s theory plausible by implying that she was willing to risk pregnancy in order to satisfy her desires. Thus, the line about Katherine’s inability to control her fleshly passions has regularly been taken not as the expression of a chronicler’s opinion, but as evidence for a genuine dimension of Katherine’s character. There are, however, other ways of interpreting this statement than as confirmation of what she was really like. This chronicle is the only direct contemporary evidence both for the claim that Katherine wanted to marry Edmund and for any taint on her morality and reputation. The passage is often identified as “rumour” about Katherine, implying that its allegations about her were circulating more or less widely. However, given its singularity and detail, it is more likely that the passage constitutes insider information about Katherine that was not publicly known. The source may have been Robert Fitzhugh, Bishop of London, who was a member of Henry VI’s council, and on whose manor of Much Hadham Edmund Tudor was born. Moreover, even if this passage does derive from contemporary observation made in the 1420s, the chronicle in which it is preserved was not compiled until around 1460, which is rarely mentioned by those quoting it. It drew its content from earlier materials, but we have no way of knowing the extent to which these were editorialised.
