I could write a paragraph on why Zelenskyy dresses that way; but we already know. So I’ll just say Peter Schiff is a dick.
Probably didn’t size it to accommodate body armor.
The guy who claims to have discovered Hunter Biden’s laptop (which still has not been produced) is apparently now an expert on foreign affairs. He was on Fox talking about how he would hate to think that the Russian invasion of Ukraine is a distraction organized by Biden. A distraction for what, wasn’t made clear.
- Trump’s candidacy
- Trump’s extortion of Ukraine over weapons
- Trump’s mishandling of COVID
- The Jan 6 insurrection
- Trump’s support for Putin during the invasion of Ukraine?
For each of these, there was an initial, instinctive revulsion by nearly everyone on both sides of the spectrum, but for each of the first four the (Russian-backed) right wing propaganda machine inexorably gave its followers a reason to come around to Trump’s POV. Each time, those of us on the left thought, no, can’t happen this time … and yet, it did.
Is it really happening again? Will an April poll find that 85% of Republicans believe the war in Ukraine is not that big a deal, or some story cooked up by the lamestream media to make Biden look good, or that Russia is actually in the right?
Texas National Guard members are claiming that as part of Abbott’s callup of the Guard to “protect” the border, they were assigned to stand guard outside private ranches up to 80 miles from the border, where they were not authorized to do anything if immigrants should happen to show up.
Senator Roger Marshall gave members of the trucker convoy a private tour of the Capitol, even though it isn’t officially open to the public. Senators are allowed to give very small private tours, and Marshall claimed that he was complying with that. This as one of the organizers said “We’re not going to go in and throat-punch them just yet, even though I know we would all love to do that.”
- Trump’s candidacy
- Trump’s extortion of Ukraine over weapons
- Trump’s mishandling of COVID
- The Jan 6 insurrection
- Trump’s support for Putin during the invasion of Ukraine.
And all of them are distractions organized by Biden. 
So Marshall gave private tours to show violent extremists how to attack the Capitol building.
Why exactly are Americans putting up with this?
Both highly rational conclusions, given the premise.
And both therefore preclude either one of you from becoming members of the Republican Party.
These guys are heartbroken that their natural tendency to praise Putin is meeting with blowback in the past few weeks.
So Peter Schiff found what he thinks might be a solution to that problem: he will point something out that will completely reverse US public opinion about Zelenskyy! Making it safe to point out the contrast of Zelenskyy’s choices with Putin’s—and therefore letting right-wingers return to giving Putin the tributes and devotion that they find so satisfying!
If only Zelenskyy had had a tan suit…
Ouch!
Mehmet Oz says that if he is elected to the Senate, he will forego security clearances in order to keep his Turkish citizenship.
Can you just imagine how Republican heads would explode if a Democrat said this? And yet they’ll be just fine with this.
Republicans are fast becoming an Anti-American party.
“Becoming”?
Apparently not: Oz has now flipped his position on the dual-cit thing.
(Although the references in that today-dated article to “Thursday” are puzzling me.)
Well, he says he’ll renounce his Turkish citizenship if elected. However, Republicans are known to be liars, so one can assume that he will not, and will still have allegiance to Erdogan.
Someone please introduce her to fellow-Republican, US Congresswoman, and Kyiv National Economic University alumna Victoria Spartz (née Kulheyko) of Indiana.
Her take on it: “This is a genocide of the Ukrainian people by a crazy man.”
Matt Shea, the former WA state legislator and terrorist who you may remember for his manifesto calling for the execution of all non-Christian males, has traveled to Poland and “obtained” 62 Ukrainian children for what I’m sure is a completely innocuous purpose.
I just saw that-thankfully the Republican obsession with child trafficking will no doubt squash any nefarious activity.
Just like any Republican, they love this country with all their heart, unless they don’t win the election, in which case America can FOAD.
