Re: Impeachment 2.0
¿ªÔÆÌåÓý?Yes whining now about how awful things are getting only because they¡¯re now getting bad for YOU is the whole reason we are in this mess... ¡°after all, you knew I was a snake when you took me in.¡± It also gets to me how whenever anyone in the media wants sanity or reasonableness they nearly ALWAYS turn to the Dems to provide it, even though the Dems did everything they could to prevent whatever the current outrage is. ?It¡¯s like the entire country has given up on the Rethugs acting with even the barest amount of humanity or decency... and every time the Dems have to clean up after them. Read this article on how these 2 disgusting cretins made the Obamas literally clean up their shit:? The porta-potty was the agency¡¯s initial solution to the protective detail¡¯s dilemma, but it was removed in the face of the neighborhood¡¯s protests. After that, according to the law enforcement officials, the agents began using a bathroom in a garage at the Obamas¡¯ house, which the former president¡¯s protective detail had turned into a command post. The Obamas did not use the garage, so the extra traffic to and from the command post caused no problem. Yet this solution, too, was short-lived after a Secret Service supervisor from the Trump/Kushner detail left an unpleasant mess in the Obama bathroom at some point before the fall of 2017, according to a person briefed on the event. That prompted?the leaders of the Obama detail to ban the agents up the street from ever returning. Two law enforcement officials said the bathrooms inside the Trump/Kushner?home were declared off-limits to the people protecting them?from the beginning. One official did not know the reason for this restriction, while the other said it was instigated by the couple. Both spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of security arrangements for the president¡¯s family. White House spokesman Judd Deere denied that Trump and Kushner ever requested that their Secret Service detail not use the bathrooms in their home.

Hopefully not long.Obviously we've got to get rid of anyone elected to Congress that reads Tweets posted by QAnon or is a "white-supremicist" who voted for Trump. YMMV.

Yea, but now one of the batshit QAnon congresswomen (Marjorie Taylor Greene) is saying how she is going to introduce impeachment articles against Biden on January 21. Between giving insurrectionists tours of the Capital building and refusing to go through the metal detectors how long do you think these two idiots have before they are thrown out?Hopefully not long.? Listening yesterday to the crazy Q's, Sedition Caucus members' whine-fest, and the wimp coalition was truly painful.? I had to stop.? As Elissa Slotkin of Michigan commented later about the representatives who broke down in tears behind the scene because they are so scared, "It's just a Wednesday" for her.? The Democrats live with these kind of threats to themselves and their families every day.? So, the scaredy-cats voted against impeachment. The level of fear and attendant collapse of character in the Republican Party is breathtaking.? OTOH, I'm very proud of the Dems and the 10 Republicans who joined them, and blown away by the way Nancy Pelosi conducts business and handles herself.?? The Pubs sold their souls and lifted up and mainstreamed a madman.? The sane ones should resign immediately, become Independents (for now), negotiate legislation, and vote as a block with the Dems, expelling the anti-democratic nutcases, and building a new coalition that embraces democratic principles and demonstrates an ability to govern.? ? ---------------------- Excerpts from an article by Kaleigh Rogers: "Before running for office, Marjorie Taylor Greene was not shy about her support for QAnon ¡ª a conspiracy theory??run by a cabal of satanic and cannibalistic elites, whom only President Trump can stop. She??to Alex Jones,??¡°a patriot¡± and even??she believes proves Q is ¡°the real deal.¡± When she won the Republican nomination for Georgia¡¯s 14th District, academics??a ¡°bellwether¡± for the movement and for American politics, and media outlets??signified a wider trend. Was there about to be a?Qaucus in Congress? But the dozens of Republicans who have voiced support for at least some elements of QAnon show how GOP leadership has allowed QAnon to become a part of the party, even if the GOP hasn¡¯t explicitly embraced it. President Trump, meanwhile, has been repeatedly asked about whether he denounces QAnon, and he consistently demurs, claiming ignorance of the movement and saying its followers??and are people who ¡°.¡± ¡°Trump has a track record for a decade where all he does is traffic in conspiracy theories,¡± Uscinski said. ¡°Trump built a coalition on conspiracy theories. He started 10 years ago with birtherism, he pushed anti-vaxx ideas. This is his modus operandi.¡± Regardless of how many explicit allies QAnon has in Congress next term, a conspiratorial mindset has already taken root in the GOP."? ?-- Em |
