Pretty good little piece.  Not sure it says anything new, but what does these days?  It does say it well. https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2021/05/republicans-stand-for-nothing-january-6-commission/619036/

The Republicans, facing an investigation into an insurrection provoked by their own leader, have armored up and gone into armadillo mode. They will protect their own—rather than their nation and the Constitution they swore to defend. This behavior should serve as a warning: A party that doesn’t believe in anything ends up believing only in its right to rule. And a movement that believes only in its own power is a deadly enemy of constitutional democracy.

Who the hell is that, anyway?

Some wit once called I think Phyllis Diller a "fright-wigged survivor."

That seems to apply here.

What could possibly go wrong.

And yeah, I can see him winning.  Because Idaho. And he's gonna be to the right of the current GQP governor, and he will be even further right than anyone else that might sign up to run

Far-right agitator Ammon Bundy’s emerging bid to become the next governor of Idaho faces a peculiar roadblock: he is currently barred from entering the state Capitol where he would ostensibly need to conduct official business after being arrested there twice within 24 hours.

But his campaign, teased in the filing of paperwork last month if not yet official, is anything but a joke.

These days, Bundy—who along with his father Cliven became national icons of far-right resistance in the Obama era—is perhaps best known as the founder of the “People’s Rights” network. Since last spring, the group has led rowdy protests outside the homes of elected officials. In a move that foreshadowed the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, the group stormed Idaho’s own Capitol building last summer.

The tactics are pure political intimidation, Bundy’s opponents have charged. Now, his seeking elected office is rattling some Idahoans, who say a campaign represents another step toward legitimizing anti-democratic tactics on the right.

Either way, it could get ugly.

“I’ve got a phone number for a Boise Police liaison,” Lee Joe Lay, a People’s Rights organizer for Boise, told The Daily Beast, conceding even he was worried about someone taking the movement’s message too far. “If we find someone out there that’s locked and loaded and ready to do this, I make that call.”

Oh, god damnit. I mean, I had a pretty good hunch, but it's still a little depressing to hear from an expert that this really IS the stupidest timeline.

They're still horses in the future?  I figure'd they ate 'em all in order to absorb Marjorie Taylor Green's essence.

What's stupid is that none of us is getting in on the grift, because these people are easy.

Doubt it.  Their deafening silence is all the proof you need that they're on board w/ whatever gets the next Bush elected.  

Scum like the rest of the GOP, to the point where dotard is more respected in their family than 41, an actual WWII hero and patriot.
