    I think the mob got him four years ago – if not earlier!

    Will we ever be able to un-see him?

    Stantis, are you running from the ‘mob’, or joining?

    Remember, we’re talking about your beloved Republicans* here. Moscow Mitch, Raphael Eduardo Cruz, Hawley, Marjorie Taylor Greene, et.al.

    9 days since we swore in a sane president. Everything is peachy.

    It’s the latest Q-Anon theory: if they sacrifice that elephant, the Democrat cannibals will be arrested.

    Is that McCarthy heading for maralago to get instructions from his orange “Dear Leader”?

    Russia has been cultivating Trump as an asset for 40 years, says former KGB spy (businessinsider.com)

    Well let’s see what the top GOP leader in congress Kevin Mccarthy said about it…

    “There’s two people I think Putin pays: Rohrabacher and Trump,”

    Party over country.

    As much as I despise Trump and think he’s a complete idiot, he’s probably the best Russian asset. He managed to entangle the entire GOP with foreign espionage.

    Bravo, Putin, but sincerely, f you.

    Hey, it’s not like the GOP wasn’t fully aware of the shit they were pulling. That was a conscious choice. The GOP are not victims of foreign intelligence infiltration. They are collaborators. Openly

    In a climate where a wall control illegal aliens is bad, but a wall to separate legislators from citizens is good, any mob is the least of his worries

    I read thad President JXB signed an XO to help reunite families at the boarder. This is fitting, since tr it was his former and current boss policies separated them in the first place. Remember if a liberal does it, its always righteous.

    Too late the last of the GOP politicians have gone full blown right-wing populist.

    Perhaps McCarthy is running away to avoid “having a talk” with Mad Marjorie even though her decline (hopefully) is just starting. From LA Times 1/30:

    Georgia has a new congresswoman in Marjorie Taylor Greene. Some are embarrassed. Others not so much. Marjorie Taylor Greene returned to her conservative northwest Georgia district this week to find a small but growing number of locals questioning her antics.

    ROME, GA. — For more than eight months, John Cowan has been something of a lone voice in northwest Georgia, warning fellow conservatives that Marjorie Taylor Greene is an extremist with a dangerous track record of espousing fringe conspiracy theories.

    Day after day, media outlets have reported examples of Greene’s embrace of conspiracies in the years before she ran for office.

    She has promoted QAnon, the debunked conspiracy theory that imagines former President Trump is leading a fight against a government controlled by a global deep state cabal of Satan-worshiping pedophiles. On social media, YouTube videos and elsewhere, she has said Muslims don’t belong in government, suggested the 2018 Parkland, Fla., school shooting and others were staged, and repeatedly endorsed executing Democratic leaders.

    Cowan is clear on what Congress has to do: Expel Greene from the House. That’s what Democratic members of the House are pursuing.

    On the video news you can also find this duly elected 46 year old member of Congress chasing down the survivor of a school shooting on a public street about his efforts to meet with legislators to get more gun safety measures passed. Very mature and professional—- NOT!

    They need to form their own party. The Moderate Party is fairly inoffensive and they can use an ostrich as their logo animal. It hides its head in the sand instead of facing problems and it runs away at the first sign of danger. Perfect.

    Thanks for constantly haranguing Hillary and supporting Trump over the years.

    I see where that got you.
