>>>The Republican Party Is The Problem

[Supafly]

... and that is why so many people don't shed a tear over his rotting away lately.

I don't think it's unreasonable to want to see Trump executed for treason, it's merely supporting the law as it's written and if he's as guilty as he seems it would be a miscarriage of justice to let him get away with it.

Like you and everyone else, I only remember the names of the main aholes, like Nixon, Trump, Epstein, Madoff...

… or Haldeman, Ehrlichman, Dean, Mitchell, Magruder, Liddy, Hunt, et al. They were the supporting cast who got hung out to dry. They knowingly put themselves in their positions though. If not for Alexander Butterfield, the White House staff may have avoided any real consequences.

Kevin McCarthy = FAIL!

How can the Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy bring an inquiry of impeachment against President Biden without having the House vote on it? Then for what? These aren't crimes against United States. This is a waste of taxpayer dollars. Then again, this wasn't a time when he was President. It was as his term as Vice President. And it's not Joe. It's his son. Hunter Biden has the laptop. The Holy Grail. What's on it other than pornography and videos of him shooting up? The House Republicans have made a big deal of it. They've inquired, questioned, brought in fake whistle blowers to try and find evidence about this laptop. But there is nothing substantial and it is all for naught. As no evidence has ever been found. Then there is a big difference here ... these weren't high crimes and treason (With Trump) ... both impeachments dealt with (1) Russian collusion into the 2016 election along with obstruction of justice, and (2) in sighting an insurrection against the Republic.

Then the classified documents case just adds to the fire. How can Donald Trump, as a private citizen, have in his possession secret documents about Iran and Saudi Arabia? He's not the President. He just thinks he's the President. Our beloved # 45 has the onset of dementia. He's being charged because he refused to give them back to the National Archives.

Hunter Biden's laptop is inadmissible as evidence because there is no chain of custody. Everything on there could be legit, everything on there could be corrupted. There could be fabricated evidence mixed in with legitimately incriminating shit. It was never meant to be an accurate representation for a court of law, merely an instrument to sway public opinion. Dirty Politics 101.

I used this elsewhere, but it applies here too

As Rudy Giuliani once said ‘We’ve got lots of theories, we just don’t have the evidence.’

Republicans Watching Your Daughter

If aholes shutdown the government, not only should their pay be blocked, but they should also pay a fine for every day of the shutdown.
This will guarantee that the government will never be shut down again.

Kevin McCarthy says he will not run for Speaker again. If not him, who? Gym Jordan? Matt Gaetz? Lauren Boebert?

After doing the right thing and compromising to make government work, he gets cut down by a small group from within his own party. Eight Republicans out of 221 votes to oust McCarthy - and the Dems did not bail him out.

It took 15 rounds to settle the issue in January. Sit back, grab some popcorn, and enjoy the unnecessary drama.

 

[tvstrip]

The obvious question you'd love to ask those who ousted him is: "What would you have done?"
Because "I would have shutdown the government" should not be an option.

Speaker of the House is third in line for the Presidency. Trump loyalists in the Secret Service take out Biden and Harris after Trump gets the job. Trump is President again.

Crazy conspiracy thinking? Would you have said the same thing if I had told you he would send a mob to the Capitol to prevent certifying the vote?

Don't forget about the deleted Secret Service text messages from January 6th.

According to a new book offering an inside look at President Joe Biden’s White House, Biden actively distrusts the Secret Service to the point that he does not speak freely in front of his agents and he believed that the agency lied about an incident where Biden’s German shepherd Major bit an agent.

If that would placate tump from seeking the prez nom, it's an serious option the GOP.

In a shocking turn, Jim Jordan on Friday lost an internal GOP vote that was intended to show confidence in him remaining as his party’s speaker designee.

The Ohio Republican is now no longer his party's pick to lead the House, a demise sealed by a GOP secret ballot just after his third failed floor vote as a speaker hopeful.

 

[Supafly]

For at least 7 years, as Trumpism evolved, I was hoping for these things to happen.

They infected their party, now the virus destructs the host

New York Republicans have finally had enough of Rep. George Santos (R-NY).

A group of GOP lawmakers from the state started the clock on a vote to expel Santos from Congress on Thursday, after 10 months of Santos’ notorious lies reflecting poorly on New York Republicans writ large.

Rep. Anthony D’Esposito (R-NY)—joined on the House floor by Reps. Mike Lawler (R-NY), Nick LaLota (R-NY) and Marc Molinaro (R-NY)—introduced a resolution Thursday that would immediately remove Santos from Congress.

He's fat. I am only mentioning this to have an excuse to post that picture. I have zero confidence that the necessary 2/3 of the House will vote to remove him but one never knows.
