The real assholes are all the pigfuckers in Alabama who happily voted for the motherfucker and who will most certainly do so again and again.
GOP Reps move to expel Santos following the additional counts added to his existing indictment, which include charges of credit card fraud, identify theft and providing fraudulent campaign finance reports. Or as George calls itâŚWednesday.
The irony here is that the GOP has shuttered the House while they try and figure out who will be Speaker, so Iâm not sure how this measure gets taken up before Santos gets to help elect the next dead man walking Speaker of the House.
Republicans think everything is stupid and/or corrupt because everything they do is stupid and/or corrupt.
Iâm sure Iran thanks Biden tremendously for the $6 billion. Iâm sure it helps tremendously with funding their war efforts.
Even though he lives in Florida.
Even now:
- Tuberville is maintaining his block on military/intelligence appointments.
- Paul is maintaining his block on state department appointments, including Ambassadors to Israel, Egypt, Oman and Kuwait.
- Cruz is maintaining his block on the appointment of a counterterrorism âtzarâ.
Speaking of the Speaker, House GOP Reps just picked Steve Scalise to be their nominee.
The Trump-endorsed candidate - Gym Jordan - lost.
The GOP prefers racists over sexual assault enablers, it seems.
This is not just assholes being assholes because they like it; although they are and they do. This is tearing down the institutions of self-governance so that they can bring on the âRed Caesarâ and autocracy. Their actions have treasonous intent.
100%.
Theyâre political nihilists.
After selecting Scalise as the GOP nominee for Speaker, they announced a floor vote today at 3pm. The vote has now been postponed, because Scalise doesnât have 217 votes.
So we know one thing: Scalise is better at counting than McCarthy.
This is bizarre.
Fun Fact: court pleadings in one jurisdiction can be introduced as evidence in another.
I know theres a pithy reply to this but Iâm at a loss to find it. He obviously didnât pay attention to his swearing in?
Sadly, I expect that argument would work with Alito and Thomas (and thus Kavanaugh and Coney Barrett, who simply do what theyâre told), leaving us at the mercy of Roberts and Gorsuch.
Not for much longer (hopefully) Sen. Bob Menendez has been hit with a superseding indictment accusing him of acting as a foreign agent.
Iâm becoming a big fan of superseding indictments.
In case you were wondering, the GOPâs gavel-goblin convened the House today but then adjourned again it within two minutes. This is day 8 of this GOP shutdown.
