INDEED! The picture is so close-up it feels intimate. Which is a state I never want to be in with her.

It’s a Gaetz-eye view.

Probably just me, but does it look like they are awaiting orders from the Kremlin about how to proceed?

When does it become glaringly obvious that some politicians are actually in the pay of an enemy nation? I do wonder if their communications are being carefully watched…

You know how Republicans always accuse falsely Democrats of doing the things that they themselves are actually doing? Its almost 70 years late, but I think we have an explanation for McCarthy’s accusations of Russians infiltrating the government.

Nah. I think 70 years ago we could pretty much be secure in the knowledge that Republicans (and Democrats) were not likely to be agents of the Soviet Union. We hated their guts. But I admit that I’m still trying to adjust to a world where so many Republicans seem to love Russia today.

Not just love them, but are actively repeating blatantly false propaganda that originates directly in the Kremlin. It’s mind boggling.

Were there any US politicians who were repeating Japanese propaganda in early 1942?

She could stop talking … permanently.

That’d be something, at least.

The replies, as always, are the money shot.

ETA: while I do think that she and Boebert are a delicate blend of evil _and_ stupid, I think this is performative bullshit that helps her fund raise from her ‘worst humans on Earth’ constituents.
