I’m always amused by the right wing snowflakes. It’s even more amusing when you realize they’re doing all they can to increase the ambient temperature so as to melt even faster…
But what about Obama, Clinton, etc. etc. Always ignore the truth of what’s happening. The truth isn’t the truth. That shall not speak without praise for the loser president who wants to erase all history of a better President.
Each and every point Gorrell uses as equivalence to justify the dismissal of the case against a self confessed traitor is outright false or gross exaggeration . Even the gun release and trace operation, while stupid, was done to help law enforcement track gun running, not for personal or political gain. Whenever caught doing something indefensible Republicans resort to “whataboutism” hoping to confuse people who don’t pay attention to detail.
just without the podium, although you can still see a bit of his hands at the bottom of the panels.
Trump spent years trying to get people to believe Obama’s birth certificate was fake, but Obama still helped try to prepare Trump’s team during the transition and left a playbook spelling out EXACTLY what to do during a pandemic. But Trump and the GOP have a blind hatred of Obama, so Trump refused to listen, and now 80,000 people are dead and 33 million are unemployed.
Ok, not touching the other stuff, but Fast and Furious was a classic gun-walking operation. The idea being, watch a gun transaction and trace the guns and the cash so you can trace gangs over the border. Unfortunately it went south. It did not deserve the moniker of a scandal.
2 The Fast and Furious was an attempt to arrest operation kingpins instead of the low level straw purchaser. It may have been flawed but it wasn’t a crime. Just like letting a low level drug mule get through the border to find out where they go.
3 IRS targeted conservative groups? The law says that a 501 c 3 groups don’t have to pay taxes on their donated income if they spend 50% of their money on charity work and not political lobbying. Karl Rove’s Crossroads GPS is one such group Do YOU think they spend 50% of their money on charities? or do you think they spend ALL of their money on political adds? If you think they spend more than 50% of their money on Lobbing then they are breaking the law.
4 FBI Target a presidential candidate? Geaorge Papadoplis Told a Diplomat that the Trump campaign was coordinating with Russia to Release Hillary’s E-mails. Whether true or not telling a diplomat that a crime is in progress is what starts the investigation. Meeting with the Russians more than 100 times, asking the Russians to release Hillary’s emails HOURS before they are release. This means NOTHING to Gorrell.
Obviously Barr and Co. don’t care about all the other things Flynn was guilty of.. tricked into lying.. throw the case out. Wonder if that excuse will work for the masses currently in jail
This cartoon is willful schizophrenia. The Truth doesn’t matter. No amount of debunking with rational argument or evidence will ever be enough to convince MAGAts to give up their delusions.
Do you notice that the Trumpettes never, ever defend any of the nefarious actions of Trump and his minions – because they know they can’t – instead they always resort to “yeah but”. Bigly sad.
Trump has been in office 4 years, he is 100% responsible for his virus disaster lack of response.
Virus-truther Trump’s first and last strategy will be to deny the pandemic’s realities — after he’s done blaming Obama
President Obama says;
This election that’s coming up — on every level — is so important because what we’re going to be battling is not just a particular individual or a political party. What we’re fighting against is these long-term trends in which being selfish, being tribal, being divided and seeing others as an enemy — that has become a stronger impulse in American life.
It’s part of the reason why the response to this global crisis has been so anemic and spotty. It would have been bad even with the best of governments. It has been an absolute chaotic disaster when that mindset — of “what’s in it for me” and “to heck with everybody else” — when that mindset is operationalized in our government.
To all the usuals, the strip is pointing out the hypocrisy of President Obama’s comments on the subject. Your efforts would be better spent convincing the Bernie supporters to get their arses along with yours out to vote in November, who knows with their support you may have a landslide election.
Let’s ignore the facts and try to distract, dismiss, and deflect. Does the RNC or the White House send out a set of weakly talking points to the faithful?

So, because the other guy was accused of doing it makes it OK for this administration to do it? So much for the GOP moral high-ground.
