The Truth Is Out There

Read on the internet:
"They aren't banning Trump from everything because they want to stop him. They're banning him to send a message that if they can do it to the US President, they can do it to ANYONE. They want to scare you into submission. But we have Jesus on our side and have no reason to be afraid." |

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.

Take away her YouTube access so she can't spread rumors about election fraud. In Communist China they send you to a re-education camp if they think you're crazy or an idiot. Or, to prison if you refuse to follow the rules. YMMV. |

It appears gun rights advocate and??is living up to her (terrifying) reputation as a far-right wing fanatic whose passions include the Second Amendment and?. After facing scrutiny for apparently??via Twitter during the Capitol attack, Boebert is now resisting new Capitol safety protocols by refusing to walk through metal detectors that have been placed on the House floor.

In a series of tweets addressing a confrontation she had with Capitol police, who attempted to search her bags after she set off metal detectors, Boebert blamed the left — and Pelosi, specifically — for the use of metal detectors as a “political stunt.”

Sal, you might know who that was. |

We don’t have an extradition treaty with Brazil, which is one reason it’s being bandied about, as well as having a Trump-friendly dictator.

But, I do think that these idiots who stormed the Capital in all their testosterone rage and self righteousness are cowards and confused. They are the herd animals, the ignorant mob, the ones to grab the pitchforks and nooses first because, golly gosh, they were getting pretty bored in Podunksville and have been spending too much time on crummy internet sites allowing themselves to get all het up. I will be very interested to see how many bail on the upcoming insurrections at "all 50 state capital buildings" in the next week now that the FBI is starting to scare the shit out of them. 10 years in jail is no laughing matter and loss of jobs, the stripping of Olympic medals for one 6'4" Einstein who went maskless wearing his Olympic jacket and the outing of various mommy's boys and ex-husbands is sure to dampen some spirits. They had their moment of fame and ignominious glory and will eventually fade back into the morass they emerged from to foment for another day. That is not to say that some will not shed blood in the coming months. There will be deaths and fear and threats yet. In the meantime, trump is in a world of hurt and I'm loving every goddam minute of it. |

Good article. Once the voices are confined to a padded room and the megaphone removed things will calm down. People are herd animals and as such, they tend to allow themselves to get riled up when their neighbors starts yelling and freaking out. Once you remove the hysterics in the group things will revert to a semblance of "normal". trump is a pariah and? his power is already greatly diminished. He will be relegated to chat rooms and the addled minds of his zombie followers in the months to come. Already the vultures are coming for him in the form of banks, the Fed, the State prosecutors and even Congress. The guy won't be able to run fast enough or find a hiding place big enough to save himself. He doesn't have the tools to deal with all of this. He is, first and foremost, a con man. He simply doesn't have what it takes, now, to deal with the fallout from his dismally failed presidency.

That's Different Because

Sometimes it's not so much the issues, but the hypocrisy that grates. YMMV.
