Well…with the release of the January 6th transcripts of Cassidy Hutchinson’s testimony and the fact that she saw Mark Meadows burning papers in his office fireplace at least a dozen times, the only conclusion that anyone on the right is going to draw is that it was all innocent and that the furnace doesn’t work too well so he had to do something…after all, he couldn’t have been obstructing justice by burning incriminating papers, could he? No, never with the squeaky clean trump administration that was one of the most law abiding in history….and since they were all so honest, I wonder why they didn’t just ask Meadows why he was burning papers in his fireplace? Oh, now I remember…they tried to ask him and he ignored the subpoena that the committee sent him as did quite a few of the trump cronies…I don’t think even Nixon was caught burning documents during Watergate…so I guess it will be up to the DOJ to ask him if they haven’t already…this has got to be obstruction of justice at least and he needs to pay for it…and before I die I would like to see someone held accountable for this crap…just like the two yahoos who were sentenced to 20 years each for plotting to kidnap our governor here in Michigan….all of these idiots saw the idiot trump breaking the law with no consequences so they thought they could do it, too…think again morons…geez…

We all know repubs lie, but this is nuts…
Well…not sure if you’ve read about this George Santos character who was just elected to the House from NY…a typical repub in that he lied about everything to get elected but now that house of cards is quickly falling…he said he graduated from college, he didn’t…he claimed he worked for Citigroup and Goldman Sachs, he didn’t…he claimed he had 13 properties, he doesn’t…he claimed that his grandparents were Jewish and fled the Holocaust, they didn’t…and he magically came up with 700K to “lend” to his campaign when two years ago he was completely broke…so, where did the money come from? Lying about that is a crime and it probably came from the Russians since we know they had a goal of getting control of congress so Ukraine wouldn’t get any more support from the US…but none of these lies have put a dent in the support he is getting from the rest of the repubs…lying is part of the skill set that is required for the modern repub candidate and the base just doesn’t care if he’s one of the biggest liars and frauds ever elected….as long as he has an R after his name, that all that matters…geez…
It’s a slow news day..
Well…the day after christmas is slow news day so I am having trouble coming up with a topic that would mean anything in politics…I did get two rides in this morning so I feel good about that and will be reaching the new record for miles tomorrow and I feel good about that,too….it’s not snowing out here right now and I saw the sun for the first time in what seems like weeks a little while ago…oh, there is one thing….the special grand jury that was investigating the idiot trump’s actions to try to “find” 11,000 votes in Georgia has disbanded without any charges or indictments…and I’m not sure what the process is…I think the evidence now goes to the prosecutors to determine if there were any crimes committed…wouldn’t it be a nice holiday present if there were indictments of the orange menace handed down before the end of the year? Boy, I guess the old saw that “the wheels of justice grind slowly” really is true…especially in idiot boy’s case…even when it’s open and shut that he did steal government documents….and still no indictments there, either…damn, I’m getting tired of waiting for justice to be served…geez…
Greg Abbott should be arrested…
Well…this is the modern repub party folks…the ones that proclaim at the top of their voices that they are “christians” and then Abbott loads up three buses full of migrant on christmas eve and sends them to DC to dump them in front of VP Harris’s house in 14 degree weather…and this callous bastard didn’t care that not one of the migrants even had the lightest of jackets on…many of them in just short sleeved shirts…this stunt should be illegal and abbott should be arrested for at least reckless endangerment or even assault with the intent to do great bodily harm…and in the city that the repubs denigrate every chance they get what happens? Yep, in that dem majority city people came together to take care of these people seeking shelter…that is what real christians do….and let’s remember that as abbott was pulling this stunt, the electric grid that he was supposed to fix has failed again and at least 90,000Texans are without power on the coldest day of the year…that is the modern repub folks, malevolence mixed with incompetence…and their base just eats this crap up…
The January 6th report is out…
Well…I know we’ve all been waiting for the January 6th report to be released and now it has…over 800 pages of evidence and conclusions on who was responsible and guess who was? Yeah, that’s an easy one…it started with the idiot trump and he was the ringleader of the whole thing…the one conclusion that can be drawn from the report is that if idiot boy acted like every other president in the history of the country and transferred the power of the presidency peacefully, January 6th would never have happened…and that’s the bottom line it was all trump’s fault as those of us living in the real world knew from the start…but some of the detail that has come out, especially about the testimony of Cassidy Hutchinson and the pressure and potential bribes offered to her to just say that “I don’t recall” instead of answering truthfully as she did should result in charges for the lawyers and others who were applying the pressure…so we’ll see about that, if the justice department will follow up and charge every damn person that was in on January 6th…and almost everyone in the WH at that time were…so lets get going Justice Department…charge these pricks already….geez…
Biden does it again…
Well…with the big spending bell getting passed through the senate today, all I can say is Biden did it again…and two things that got included were the Pregnant workers act that prohibits discrimination against pregnant women on the job and the electoral count act that adds to the language of how electoral votes are counted so the repubs can’t try to steal the election again like they did in 2020. I wonder how the right is going to spin this one with their continuing efforts to paint Biden as a doddering old fool? Sure seems to get a lot done for an old fool but those of us here on the left don’t think that of him at all…yep, he’s old but it would take many pages to list the achievements of his administration and he really is trying to make this country a better place for everyone…and in the atmosphere in DC, I think he’s doing a pretty damn good job…geez…
What a bunch of asses…
Well…with the visit of Ukrainian president Zelenskyy to the US yesterday, and the repub response to it, we again had it confirmed that the repubs are a bunch of assholes and that they truly are traitors who support Putin more than Ukraine. When Z spoke in front of the congress, most of the repub caucus didn’t even show up and the ones who did disrespected Z by talking, playing with their phones and sitting on their hands when the House rose for a standing ovation…and the new meme that the right and it’s Putin apologists is using today is that Ukraine is a “welfare queen” and we can’t afford to support them anymore and they are repub house members are trying to get the additional funding for Ukraine ripped out of the spending bill being worked on as they poured money on the US military to the tune of 860 billion dollars just last week. Let’s remember what Ukraine is doing for the world…since Russia invaded, they have lost half of their military strength…hundreds of thousands of their soldiers dead and essentially a gutted economy exposing the hollowed out military that no one is afraid of anymore…just that much would be more than we should have expected…and Ukraine deserves whatever they need from us as they continue and until they win…which they will give enough support….geez…
Trump’s taxes…
Well…the House ways and means committee released the idiot trump’s taxes yesterday and, as expected, there are dozens of shady real estate deals and the fact that he doesn’t pay taxes…offsetting any income with “charitable deductions” that are shady, too…using nonexistent property that he “donated” to save himself from paying millions in taxes….and there are lots of missing documentation where he is just making things up to lower his tax bill…like writing off two million dollars in property taxes in NY when the limit for those deductions is 10K….and all of this has been discovered in the few hours the returns have been public…what will they find once a forensic accountant goes to work…it’s pretty clear why idiot boy didn’t want anyone to see these returns….they are filled with fraud of the same sort he has pulled his entire life, changing evaluation of property depending on whether he was getting a loan or paying taxes….now I wonder if they will charge him with tax fraud? After all, they have already convicted his company of fraud so you can bet the same things are being done in his returns…get after it IRS…geez…
Bring it on…
Well…with all of the threats the repubs in the house have been leveling for investigations on everyone for everything, the only thing I have to say is bring it on…the one thing our side does is follow the rules and I don’t think the public really wants the repub bullshit anymore…they are admitting that they are not going to govern but just take revenge on the dems for doing their jobs and helping Americans and the world…I am getting pretty damn tired of the projection that these asses perform every day…since the repubs are so corrupt, they think everyone is but look what happened the last time they controlled the house…8 investigations of Benghazi and Hillary sitting in front of a committee for 11 hours and what did they get out of it…yep, nothing…they found no wrongdoing of any sort and that is what they are going to find this time no matter what the crazies like jordan think….I mean how do you investigate a conspiracy theory? That is all the supposed wrongdoing by dems is and I think it’s going to expose the repubs for who they are….lunatics…geez…
Four charges for trump…
Well…the January 6th hearing is over with 4 charges referred to the Justice Department against the idiot trump and his cronies…1. Obstruction of an Official Proceeding 2. Conspiracy to defraud the United States 3. Conspiracy to make false statements 4. Insurrection
Yow! All felonies and all pretty damn serious and they are referring some of conspirators in the House to the ethics committee for failure to do their jobs and cooperate with the investigation….and the committee was clear that there are many, many more people who were involved in this conspiracy that will also be referred as part of this package…I am still waiting for idiot boy’s reaction to the committee slapping him in the face and that will be glorious….more later….
