When you gut a deer, do you build a new animal out of it?
Great idea … except Republicans would portray the fraud cases as a socialist war on capitalism, and the fraudsters as job creators unjustly penalized for exercising their freedom to innovate.
What I’ve seen is that only is she not a real doctor, but her dissertation for her Ed.D is riddled with errors and lefty bias. Of course, the only proof of that is an extremely short quote from the dissertation absent any context.
Maybe they’ll revive “Let’s repeal Obamacare!”
For one thing, it couldn’t be repaired in only 20 years. For another thing, the income is great, however small it is (and it’s usually not enough to live on unless you were well-paid during your working years); it’s the MEDICAL CARE COVERAGE that most of us old folks rely on. Give that some thought, why don’t you?
When will one of them insist on exhuming Beau, the other son, to see what evil secrets were buried with him?
If they do that, they’ll find that (like in the movies) the coffin will be full of old tires. Beau is alive and working for <fill-in-the-blank> the Chinese, the Russians, ex-Nazis, aliens, etc. He’s hiding on the International Space Station. Or in a rooming house in San Francisco. Or in the basement of a pizza parlor. You know.
House Republican leaders on Tuesday announced their picks for powerful committee chairs in the new Congress, and most of them have an inherent character flaw: They voted to overturn the 2020 presidential election results after fueling the lie that the election was stolen from Donald Trump.
“Our committee chairs represent the very best of our conference,” House Majority Leader Scalise (R-La.) said when announcing the GOP’s choices for chairmanships.
…
My bold.
I’m sure that’s true!
…
Of the 17 members tapped for chair posts, 11 voted to reject the results of the 2020 presidential election. They defended their decision to do this by telling the same lie about widespread voter fraud that just hours earlier had fueled the deadly insurrection at the Capitol and sent these lawmakers into hiding for their lives.These 11 Republicans are Reps. Glenn Thompson (Pa.) for the agriculture committee, Mike Rogers (Ala.) for armed services, Jodey Arrington (Texas) for budget, Virginia Foxx (N.C.) for education and workforce, Mark Green (Tenn.) for homeland security, Jim Jordan (Ohio) for the judiciary, Roger Williams (Texas) for small business, Sam Graves (Mo.) for transportation and infrastructure, Mike Bost (Ill.) for veterans, Jason Smith (Mo.) for ways and means, and Frank Lucas (Okla.) for science, space and technology.

Or on the secret base under Antarctica.
Jim Jordan is planning on subpoenaing Democrats to investigate why they subpoenaed him, which he then ignored.
Only if you’re one of The Twisted Ones.
Fox News commentator says that the new design on the M&Ms bag will help China take over the world.
Mineral deposits? What does he think is in an M&M, anyway?
This made me think of M Walsh, What IS an m&m? Heh
China-Taking over the World-one m&m at a time!
I completely agree with you, especially since you’re using the moniker I started to use for that traitor. Well, I guess I don’t completely agree with you on one thing: I feel that there is no such thing now as a moderate Republican.
It’s even worse than that, now we have to start calling them w&ws
Kansas GOP leader refuses to define what he’s talking about.
Hawkins refused to define woke ideology.
“You don’t know what woke ideology is?” Hawkins said when asked to explain the term. “Go and Google it.”
“Woke” means “Damn, I wish I had the nerve to say ‘uppity’!”.
I have seen it more as meaning: “I wish I had the guts to say: don’t be a n***** -or a minority- lover!”
I’d love for journalists (and even other politicians) to really dig into some of these people and force them to define things like woke or CRT that they’re purposely using as boogeymen. I’d be happy to see them admit they don’t actually know what it means or that they know what it means and they’re deliberately lying to their constituents in order to use them as political pawns.
I know, IME, when someone IRL or on facebook would complain about CRT, just saying “What’s CRT?” or “Do you know what CRT is?” tended to shut them up.
Even here:
Hawkins refused to define woke ideology.
“You don’t know what woke ideology is?” Hawkins said when asked to explain the term. “Go and Google it.”
I love to see the person say “I don’t think you know what it is and I want you to hear you explain it”. Challenge them, right there with the cameras rolling.
In the end this wouldn’t work. The right has come right out and said they purposely co-opt these terms, redefine them to something vague and then speak out against it. And it seems to be an effective strategy.
I was in a discussion with a MAGAt, and was able to get him to admit that the story he was telling was about a bad teacher, not about CRT. I may have actually convinced him that CRT is not actually being taught in grade schools.
Fighting ignorance. It’s taking longer than we thought.
