Sadly, they do not feel that they’re lying, … they’re just creating new realities.
“We’re an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality. And while you’re studying that reality — judiciously, as you will — we’ll act again, creating other new realities, which you can study too, and that’s how things will sort out. We’re history’s actors . . . and you, all of you, will be left to just study what we do.”
This committee BETTER get tougher on these treasonist imbeciles! They are a disgrace to our country and furthermore, they are still supporting the bag of sh¡t rump!
No class, no brains, no loyalty to America, freedoms and the total disregard to the Constitution!
What exactly has gone wrong in America? Something made middle-aged white American men go desperately off the rails
With the Republican Party’s platform morphing from obstruction to fascism (e.g., CPAC is planning a spring fling in authoritarian Hungary), citizens losing their minds over wearing masks and talking up anything but a safe and free vaccine in a deadly pandemic that has taken more American lives than were lost in our Civil War (in an era before doctors could do much more than use a saw), and school board members facing violent threats for supporting basic inclusion and diversity efforts in public schools — for many, the concept of American exceptionalism has been turned on its head.
One could easily contend, as was argued back in the day, that the country “went south” (literally) when it was first truly established because too much had to be given to the South to get the Constitution ratified. We are still suffering from those compromises, and still making them, to this day. America’s hidden wound, as writer Wendell Berry termed it, our collective unwillingness to fully acknowledge our history of slavery, is now producing the bad-faith arguments about critical race theory being taught in public schools and the banning of books that address the history of slavery in this country. This wound may prove mortal.
In what I wish were a side note, I will mention the insightful — and unfortunately highly pertinent to our era — article entitled “Who Goes Nazi?” by Dorothy Thompson, published Harper’s Magazine in 1941. If you’ve not read it, read it now, as if we were up against it. Because we are.
The serious lack of seriousness and misogyny inculcated by life in a typical fraternity during a young man’s college career has bled into most of our institutions, including Congress. The problem with many former frat boys is that they are never really former frat boys.
These creatures have built their careers on lies, racism and BS. If any one of them told the truth the ground would open up and swallow them whole. They wouldn’t dare pi** off the Devil, or Rump.
Yes, Clay, this is what they’re thinking in their minds. But, they will swear away to tell the truth, all the while thinking up alternative remarks to actually give. Or, they might be thinking, while taking the oath, I’ll tell my truth and only my truth, as I believe it.
Here’s how federal judges are exposing the truth about the MAGA rioters
The three judges are Amit Mehta, who called one riot defendant a “pawn” who was “told the election was stolen when it was not,” while the Republican leaders who pushed Trump’s Big Lie remain unpunished; Reggie Walton, who slammed a defendant as “gullible enough to come to Washington D.C. from Florida based on a lie” and compared Trump unfavorably to Al Gore for not accepting election results that were clearer than those Gore accepted; and Magistrate Judge N. Reid Neuriter, who ordered two pro-Trump Colorado lawyers to pay the legal fees of a defamed election equipment company and said they sought to “manipulate gullible members of the public and foment public unrest.”
