Yay Samantha Bee!!!! Ted Cruz called out for his 'fake worrying about pretend pedophiles' as GOP becomes the QAnon party Bob Brigham April 07, 2022 There's really no good reason not to confirm Judge Jackson to the Supreme Court, but that's just fine with republicans because they have no problem making up a bunch of absolutely f*cking goat sh*t," she said, airing a clips of Sens. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN), Tom Cotton (R-AR), and Lindsey Graham (R-SC). *** "People like Ted Cruz and Lindsey Graham may cynically use this as a ploy, but there are scum-holes like Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) who are true believers," Bee explained. "But the most hypocritical part of it is there are actually people in their own party who are endangering kids."youtu.be/yctYjzqLoX4www.rawstory.com/republican-ted-cruz/ |

MORE GQP voter fraud. This one was booked and jailed!! Republican city council member arrested and jailed for voter fraud in IndianaSky Palma April 08, 2022 An Indiana city council member has been arrested and charged with two counts of voting outside precinct and one count each of theft, perjury, and official misconduct, WISH-TV reports. Brian Young, a Republican on the Pulaski County Council, listed the address on his voter registration back in 2004 as 959 W. County Road 700 North in Winamac, which is located in the district he represents, but he has not changed his address since then. Police suspected that Young actually lived at a different residence outside of his district with his girlfriend and their daughter, with the residence listed on his voter registration being where his parents live. Young claimed to the court that he sometimes stays with his girlfriend because she has multiple sclerosis and that he had already cleared the situation with the Republican county chairman, the current Pulaski County clerk, and a previous county clerk. But previous and current county chairmen say they did not approve him to run for his position.www.rawstory.com/republican-city-council-member-is-arrested-and-jailed-for-voter-fraud/ |

This is not good!! Could have been very serious breaches.. one traveled with and was close by Biden for sensitive meetings and personal situations etc. One uniformed guarded Harris's residence another worked IN the White House. The four agents may have allowed themselves to be bribed. They have been placed on administrative leave and are being investigated! Fake DHS employees may have bribed Secret Service agents assigned to Biden and Harris: report Travis Gettys April 08, 2022 Two fake Homeland Security agents who allegedly bribed federal law enforcement officers appear to have worked their way into the Secret Service details for President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris. www.rawstory.com/arian-taherzadeh-haider-ali/ |

revirdsuba99, thank you for starting some political posts. I don’t know what’s going on around here, but onelasttime hasn’t posted in four days and @zima hasn’t posted in almost two weeks. And the front page has been moving excruciatingly slowly. I miss them both and wish they’d come back. Meanwhile, I guess it’s up to the rest of us to keep things going. So thank you. I’ll try to help.

Life within some GQP members... I am literally shaking from reading this mess.. So very sad.. Disgusting!!!! The Facebook post is at the bottom of the article... Virginia GOP official calls Biden’s Pentagon chief a ‘stinking’ N-word – and calls for a ‘good public lynching’Tom Boggioni April 08, 2022 According to a report from WAVY, the chairman of the Virginia Hampton GOP has called for the ousting of the electoral board chair over an ugly tirade on Facebook where he used a racial slur to describe Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin and retired Gen. Russell Honoré -- both of whom are Black. The report notes that Hampton GOP Chairman Philip Siff told WAVY, "We unequivocally condemn all forms of racism and bigotry,” while calling for David Dietrich to be expelled. In a statement, Siff claimed, "In the post, Mr. Dietrich uses abhorrent and unacceptable racist language that has no place in our Party or our Commonwealth." Siff posted a screenshot of the offending Facebook post (which can be seen below) on the Hampton GOP's Facebook page. The worst is in spoiler In his tirade, Dietrich wrote, "The situation with the United States military is getting more disgusting and dangerous by the day."
After listing off the names of the two Black military men, he added, "These so-called 'leaders' are so vile and racist, there's no way to describe them other than in terms their own people understand. They are nothing more than dirty, stinking n*ggers."
He added, "We are being forced into a corner by these enemies of the People. If it is a civil war they want, they will get in in spades. "Perhaps the best way to pull us back from the brink is a good public lynching." www.rawstory.com/virginia-gop-official-calls-bidens-pentagon-chief-a-stinking-n-word-and-calls-for-a-good-public-lynching/ |

Only the best... GQP again.. South Carolina Tea Party Republican facing hearing over charges of 133 ethics violationsTom Boggioni April 08, 2022 According to the Post Courier, Rep. Jonathon Hill (R-Townville) came into office as a Tea Party activist, has been accused of, among other charges, using campaign funds to pay his mortgage as well as other personal bills. The report states that the House Ethics Committee has scheduled public hearings where he will be allowed to defend himself. "The four-term House member can use that forum, as well as a more formal, trial-like hearing May 13, to dispute allegations that he mishandled his campaign bank account, failed to properly track donations and expenses and used the money to cover personal charges," the report states adding, "Hill, who is not seeking reelection this year, also has the option to admit to some or all of the charges and plead for leniency. The Tea Party activist and software engineer faces up to $266,000 in fines — $2,000 per count — if found guilty. "Hill’s lawyer, Tony Fernandez, indicated his client will attempt to negotiate a settlement. According to the Post Courier, should a settlement not be reached, "the State Ethics Commission, which investigated Hill’s campaign finances and recommended formal charges, will prosecute the case. Both sides can call witnesses, issue subpoenas and request documents through discovery." The report adds that Hill had a requested an audit by the state that brought the campaign money discrepancies to light while also noting the lawmaker, "... whose frequent 'no' votes and scathing criticism of fellow Republicans has made him an outcast in the Statehouse, has declined to comment publicly on the charges." www.rawstory.com/south-carolina-tea-party-republican-facing-hearing-over-charges-of-133-ethics-violations/ |

Another opinion regarding Bill Barr www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/04/08/bill-barr-identifies-real-injustice-republicans-losing/This necessarily colors everything else he says. He is not a dispassionate arbiter of what should and shouldn’t be done in campaigns. He is a sharply conservative person who sees Russian interference as unimportant (except as a way to attack Hillary Clinton) clearly in part because the outcome in 2016 is the one he wanted: Trump won. In 2020, though, the laptop “suppression” was unconscionable — because he thinks it made Trump lose.and a possible new target for Republican attacks - get out the vote efforts “You have things like Zuckerberg,” Barr said, referring to a group funded by a nonprofit formed by Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg that invested in voter turnout efforts. “Same thing. I’m not sure if it was legal or not, but that skews the playing field unfairly.”
Setting aside the former attorney general claiming that it was maybe illegal to run a get-out-the-vote effort — a claim that would seem to demand some sort of evidence — it’s bizarre to state that this “skews the playing field.” The effort centered on getting legal voters to vote! It’s exactly what campaigns do for months before Election Day. But the difference here is that someone was applying resources that would likely end up turning out more Democrats, and that’s what galls Barr, Kudlow and their allies. |

Hopefully they can get stuff from him!!!! 'Stop the Steal' organizer announces ‘cooperative posture’ with DOJ investigation of Trump coup attemptMatthew Chapman April 08, 2022 "Speaking through a lawyer, Mr. Alexander said on Friday that he had recently received a subpoena from a federal grand jury that is seeking information on several broad categories of people connected to pro-Trump rallies that took place in Washington after the election," reported Alan Feuer. "In a statement from the lawyer, Mr. Alexander said he was taking 'a cooperative posture' with the Justice Department’s investigation but did not know what useful information he could give. He also disavowed anyone who took part in or planned violence on Jan. 6."Mysteries remain about Alexander's involvement — including a payout he received from a PAC days after he got a subpoena from the House Select Committee investigating January 6. But he has previously implicated several Republican lawmakers in the planning of the rally, including Reps. Mo Brooks (R-AL) and Andy Biggs (R-AZ) — and according to the report, he could also implicate more Trump allies.www.rawstory.com/stop-the-steal-2657125693/ |

Tim Miller, former former Republican National Committee chair, talks about Axios' Jonathan Swan's interview with McConnell on how he defends his actions..... "Put simply, Miller explained that for McConnell, opportunistic expedience is at the always top of his list as long as it keeps him in power.""Because for him, what is politically right is what is moral, and that was tested on Jan. 6th. He saw the deaths at the Capitol and he still said, meh, I don’t care."(says it all) www.rawstory.com/mitch-mcconnell-2657127358/Content of tweet is also written in full in the piece. |

Desantis is making a big mess in Florida, now he is telling those in Georgia who they better vote for. DeSantis says ‘Cold War’ coming between Florida, Georgia, if Stacey Abrams is elected governorBY BRAD DRESS - 04/08/22 5:53 PM ET DeSantis said he “really appreciates our Georgians” but that voters would have to “take care” of the 2022 election to prevent Abrams from winning. “If Stacey Abrams is elected governor of Georgia, I just want to be honest, that will be a cold war between Florida and Georgia,” he said. “I can’t have [former Cuban communist leader Raul] Castro to my south and Abrams to my north, that would be a disaster. So I hope you guys take care of that and we’ll end up in good shape.”thehill.com/news/3262688-desantis-says-cold-war-coming-between-florida-georgia-if-stacey-abrams-is-elected-governor/ |

So... Yes, there is a dilemma for the DOJ and honorable AG Garland, but... No charges against past present or future. Does anyone believe that a new Republican DOJ/AG would not find charges for every Democrat in sight?!?! You have Ginni Thomas suggesting 'that the Biden Crime family should be on their way to face charges at GITMO' ?!?! Criminal referrals of former Trump officials pose thorny questions for DOJBY HARPER NEIDIG AND REBECCA BEITSCH - 04/09/22 5:53 AM ET Without enforcement of congressional subpoenas, there is no oversight, and without oversight, no accountability — for the former president, or any other president, past, present, or future. Without enforcement of its lawful process, Congress ceases to be a co-equal branch of government, and the balance of power would be forever altered, to the lasting detriment of the American people,” he added. thehill.com/regulation/court-battles/3262936-criminal-referrals-of-former-trump-officials-pose-thorny-questions-for-doj/ |

So, we really would have an all-powerful king, if that were true. All the more reason T-rump can NOT have another term, ever. Yes, it's tricky, but doing the right thing against powerful people always is. Garland needs get some backbone. The lack of moral courage in our country anymore is just beyond my comprehension. |
