  1. This. Her constituents need to be shamed in no uncertain terms.
  2. This. Except the average Republican doesn't give a fuck. The average Republican is all in on craziness. But there are more of us than there are of them. And we need to act like it. And also to shame the so called "average Republicans" who wilfully ignore truth and decency. The gerrymander, voter suppression, Electoral College, both siderism, and a wimpy Democratic party have made this less clear. Around 40% of the country is on board with lunacy and cruelty. It's on the rest of us to make sure that they find out from their fucking around.
  3. The "average Republican" doesn't care about facts or who she is. The "average Republican" thinks the election was stolen, birtherism, O theories, and on and on. They voted for 45 again despite injecting bleach, kids in cages, abandonment of the Kurds,and I could go on for days. The "average Republican" either is insanely ignorant and shielded from all facts or doesn't give a flying fuck about facts or decency. There is nothing that could come out about her that would change any of their minds.
  4. She's cut from the same cloth as the other Republicans in Congress. She just doesn't have decades in government in which she faked putting a nice face on things and trying to hide her rotten core.
  5. Yup. This was great. Definitely recommend.
  6. The only character traits that can possibly be discerned from the nonsense watch controversy are (1) that Biden was wearing his dead son who served in the military's watch at his inauguration, instead of putting his children in charge of Middle East peace talks and managing Covid vaccination, and (2) the morons who have more to say about Biden's watch than Trump making a coup attempt.
  7. It wouldn’t matter if it was a $50000 watch. He’s a grown ass man and he didn’t steal from the taxpayers to buy it. But in addition to the so called scandal being ridiculous, especially after years of a so called president who took millions of taxpayers’ money in income and stole from a children’s cancer charity, the NYT couldn’t even do basic research or decency to determine Biden was wearing his dead son’s watch.
  8. Good job, New York Times, on breaking this scandal. The Rolex was apparently Beau’s, and that’s why Biden wore it to the inauguration. You morons caught him wearing his dead son’s watch.
  9. This thread is much better with Ana on ignore. If he has something worth reading, and he might as he seems like a smart dude, it's lost in his need to reply to every single post to show that he's smarter than everyone else.
  10. The GOP doesn't want to actually pass anything. They still don't even have a health care plan. Hell, the only thing the GOP Senate even tried to pass over the last few years, was a failed repeal of Obamacare and an actual tax cut for the wealthy. We know what legislation they would pass with 51 Senators, and it's nothing. The dems are the only party right now that actually wants to pass legislation to govern, as opposed to just obstructing shit and lining their own pockets.
  11. Exactly this. 45 was obvious from the beginning. But the number of morons and racists in this country, especially the number of people who I used to respect and thought were intelligent, even if sometimes I disagreed with them on things, who were taken in by a bigoted conman still shocks me.
  12. Yeah. After the election was called for Biden, I was downtown and saw a ton of cars driving up and down with people waving flags and my first thought was WTH are all the trumpers doing in town and why are they celebrating today. Then I realized it was the non-trumpers celebrating and taking back the flag and everything it is supposed to stand for. It made me realize how for four years the flag had been brandished as a weapon against anyone not in the trump cult. And I let them ruin the flag for me, not because I hate America, but because I hated what they were turning it into and how they used that flag as a symbol of oppression. And it reminded me that the flag could be a symbol of my country, instead of a weapon.
  13. I was hoping that was a reference to George Conway. Because what is he doing in all this. Tweeting and leaving his children to be abused by Kellyanne.
  14. That asshole carrying Lincoln's bust better be prosecuted for theft.
  15. No idea why dems in Congress might be livid about the GOP Reps, who seem to be doing their level best to kill them.
  16. I think McConnell is just trying to buy time. He knows far worse is going to come out. And once trump is out of office, they will have less ability to control the flow of information. Direct evidence of incitement, evidence that House members were coconspirators, other criminal activity by trump not related to the insurrection, etc.. Once Barr or whoever the fuck is acting AG this week is out, more and more evidence against trump will be out there. McConnell doesn't want his members voting against conviction, with that dam of information about to be released in the coming weeks.
  17. Wait. I thought he no longer had any way to communicate with the American people.
  18. I’m also wondering, and trying not to be too tin foil hat here, but if the congresspeople (who are also Greene, et. al.) who refused to wear masks when herded off into that room, did so not only because they’re raging assholes but also because they wanted to be recognized by the insurrectionists if they got through.
  19. She's also a former navy pilot. I live just outside of her district because of the gerrymander and she is one of the few members of Congress I respect. Sherrill is professional and certainly hasn't come across to me as anything close to a conspiracy theorist or kook
