  1. Remember that Democratic State prosecutor in Florida who Desantis fired because of reasons? Well… Trump Judge Spanks Ron DeSantis for Retaliating Against a Democratic Rival https://news.yahoo.com/trump-judge-spanks-ron-desantis-224104246.html?ref=spot-im-jac?spot_im_highlight_immediate=true&spot_im_comment_id=sp_Rba9aFpG_76410dd4-8407-3add-946d-fcded98042b5_c_2aq7kxknSLn96d1WgJNR8wsJBW7&utm_source=spotim&utm_medium=e-mail&utm_campaign=liked-message&spot_im_redirect_source=email
  2. What makes it so awesome is the only time Jim Jordan has nothing to say is when Swalwell is dragging his ass about ignoring his subpoena.
  3. I think had Obama been found to have received 8 million dollars from foreign governments, he would have been impeached, convicted and driven from office. Trump is a living, breathing example of real white privilege - not the fake king Nancy Mace referred to in yesterday’s House hearing.
  4. There should be other indications coming: https://abcnews.go.com/US/trumps-businesses-received-millions-foreign-entities-presidency-house/story?id=106106433 A new report by Democrats on the House Oversight Committee documents more than $7.8 million in payments from at least 20 foreign governments — including China, Saudi Arabia and Qatar — to businesses owned by then-President Donald Trump during two years of his presidential term.
  5. I agree with that. Don’t see an upside for him to leave Texas for Alabama.
  6. He’s smarter than a lot of older famous people who work until they can’t walk, and die two months after retiring. He’s 72. What’s the big deal?
  7. This is too much for even some nut job pastors in Iowa: https://www.yahoo.com/news/iowa-pastors-denounce-god-made-040000247.html
  8. It’s still hard to believe just how far off the rails the GOP has gone since the emergence of Trump. It’s like we’re all living in a bad dream.
  9. Can a Leopard change its spots? The shame his felt dissipated quickly: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/republican-congressman-troy-nehls-scolds-jan-6-rioters-barricaded-house-chamber-new-video/ Dramatic new cell phone video obtained by CBS News shows rioters who had breached the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, being scolded by a Republican congressman who was barricaded inside the House Chamber during the assault. The video was released this week to media by the Justice Department — at the request of NBC News — as part of the federal criminal proceeding for Capitol rioter Damon Beckley, who was convicted during a stipulated bench trial last February of one count each of obstructing an official proceeding and interfering with law-enforcement officers during a civil disorder in the Jan. 6 attack. In the video, which runs about seven minutes, a mob is shown crowded outside the doors of the House Chamber, yelling at congressional members through what appears to be broken glass. Republican Rep. Troy Nehls of Texas interacts briefly with the rioters through the door. "I've been in law enforcement in Texas for 30 years, and I've never seen people like this," Nehls, who is masked, scolds the mob. Prior to joining Congress, Nehls had served as a sheriff in Fort Bend County, outside Houston. I'm ashamed," he adds.
  10. Abbott is no Christian: On New Year's Eve, Abbott flew hundreds of migrants — including many children — to the Rockford airport in Illinois, 30 miles outside of Chicago. It was snowing upon their arrival, and some of the migrants had no coats or shoes. Others were wearing flip-flops.
  11. Good question. Can’t imagine any responsible parent sending his 6th grader to school unarmed.
  12. Yeah, that was normally the case for women of that era. See Anita Hill.
  13. I was in Europe several weeks ago with a study group looking at how religion has been misused in peace building and how it might be redirected toward reconciliation at the sharper, more fractured edges of society. In one session, it was suggested that whenever one asks if I am Christian, I should respond by inviting them to ask my neighbor. Why? Because it is my neighbor who has observed what I do as well as what I say I believe. It is my neighbor who can assess if I practice any tenants expressed in the Gospels and how I treat other people. i can declare myself to be anything, but the truer read often comes from the observations of others. I wonder what feedback Abbott would get if he asked his neighbors who are troubling the waters of the Rio Grande, if he is Christian.
  14. The very reason why some prefer to be called Christ followers, so as to distinguish themselves from MAGA Christians.
  15. Has anybody seen pics of Trump’s 5 children from 3 baby mamas all gathered at the Florida compound to celebrate the joys of Christmas and the loving f their doting father?
  16. It’s notable that Trump only won by 6 even as Democrats didn’t spend one dime in the state. I think we could move the needle with a sizable investment in voter engagement centered around those most negatively impacted by Republican policies.
  17. Poll: Texas abortion case is a warning sign for Republicans: https://www.yahoo.com/news/poll-texas-abortion-case-is-a-warning-sign-for-republicans-193548558.html
  18. Absolutely is. But as I wrote earlier, no other help is coming. Texans will either learn to vote while they still can or live permanently under fascism.
  19. Alright, textualists. You’re on the clock.
  20. This is the kind of government that we have allowed to be created in our names as citizens of Texas. If there is to be change, we have to do it. No other help is coming.
  21. Check the coffin for the missing classified info.
  22. Would the poison to which he refers include that of his children sired with immigrant women?
  23. The latest from the populist: https://news.yahoo.com/trump-bemoans-record-stock-market-014448274.html?fr=sycsrp_catchall (Reuters) - Donald Trump, who predicted three years ago that if Democratic President Joe Biden won the White House in 2020 markets would crash, said on Sunday that stock markets hitting record highs were just making "rich people richer." Trump, the frontrunner for the 2024 Republican nomination, often took credit for a rising stock market when he was president between 2017 and 2021. He was mocked by Biden last week for wrongly predicting a crash when they campaigned against each other in 2020.
