The only thing that bugs me is we are now in a time when because of cults of personality, politicians now lie over stupid things.
At least in the past when they lied, their lies âmade senseâ.
But McCarthy has to pay fealty to Trump, so now he has to tell a lieâŚeven though he likely knows heâll get caught in order to a) show heâs loyal to the man and b) make it not look so bad that a week later he threw Liz Cheney under the bus because she dared to be disloyal.
My takeâŚDemocrats get to salivate over Jan 6 for a couple of daysâŚyay. Meanwhile when most Americans fill up their cars today fuel will cost almost if not way more than $4 a gallon. What do you all think will matter more to most of us.
I ve made my position January 6 pretty clear. It was an awful day where a protest went badâŚpeople who breached the capital if they committed crimes should have already been triedâŚapparently there are still American citizens being held in violation of their Constitutional rights almost a year and a half later.
It was a riot, not an insurrectionâŚour Republic was never in danger. Those people werenât going to overturn our Democracy, like my dog chasing a car they wouldnât have known what to do with it if they caught it, and they were never going to catch it. I know that simple truth causes leftists heads to explode but that is the truth.
I listened to the McCarthy tape. In the context in which it is being presented it sounds bad. If it keeps him from being speaker okâŚRepublicans still need to retake the House and Senate and do whatever they can to undo the massive damage Democrats have done to America.
In the context in which it is being presented it sounds to me like a planning session. All options on the tableâŚafter the piece of tape we heard what was said? Did someone say âhey Kevin letâs talk to the Democrats see where they senate isâŚletâs give it a day or twoâŚ?â Dont know do we? Yâall donât know anything more right now than you did 24 hours ago. In the overall scheme of things I honestly donât care what was being discussed in a planning session a year and a half ago, (and you guys are really gonna hate this part), I find it impossible to take seriously the moral outrage from people who continue to push the insurrection lie, pushed the Hunterâs laptop lie, pushed the Russia collusion lie, and that list goes on and on.
If McCarthyâs not MR. SpeakerâŚok. Who cares. Doesnât change the fact that Democrats control of our government needs to end because in April of 2022 under Democrat majorities our nation is in the worst shape itâs been in in a long time.
KâŚletâs say thatâs true. Now with the threat of nuclear war from Russia, the billions weâre now spending on UkraineâŚthat âweâ donât have, run away inflation and the absolute disaster at our southern borderâŚwho gives a ratâs ass?
The concern should be about a President using the power of his office in an attempt to overturn the results of an election that he lost and the sycophantic idiots who willingly go along with it.
I despise Joe Biden. Theyâve got TDSâŚIâve got BDSâŚokâŚ
They think theyâve got something here. Somebody released a couple If minutes if tape from a planning phone callâŚ
Are there any planning calls about how to maximize the political impacts of 1-6-20 that Dems want to releaseâŚmaybe about how to make sure that we are all on the same page re: Hunterâs laptopâŚIâm sure all kinds of people said all kinds of thingsâŚ
Sorry yâall if you wanna think this is a thing then I canât stop you butâŚbut on 4-22-22 weâve all got way bigger problems.
Did you listen to the tape? not only did he say he would tell trump to resign, he alluded to an earlier conversation in which he asked about the 25th amendment. He also talks about making sure pence doesnât pardon him.
And then he kicks Cheney out of leadership for publicly saying what he said privately.
