Hey remember when Tucker Carlson and Fox News and the R's tried to paint Nancy Pelosi as having done 'nothing' on Jan 6th to stop it?

Well here is video of her doing everything she can think of to stop the riots, up to and including offering to punching Trump in the face if he came to the Capitol.

Like I know it's not hard to prove Fox News et al full of utter shit, but this really does put Carlson's BS in his place.

Also, fucking Steve Scalise parroted that Nancy "did nothing" after the fact when asked about it....HE'S IN THE FUCKING ROOM WITH HER AS SHE DEFINITELY DOES TRY TO DO THINGS ABOUT IT......The sheer disingenuousness of that motherfucker to have seen her trying to help and later claim she did nothing...

I'm sure it was a one-time lapse in judgment.

Adam Kinzinger had to be a little extra though, didn't he? Uh dude, your name was just called (like everyone else), a simple "aye" like the rest of your colleagues is sufficient. Although, I guess if you're going to subpoena a former president, and especially one like Trump, that might be the appropriate time to put that extra hot sauce on it.

Probably a long shot, but I wouldn't be totally suprised by a Cheney/Kinzinger ticket in 2024.

I've not been keeping up, have they subpoena'd Trump?

[Malankazooie]

Yes.

I got mine done last night. Took two minutes and was quite nice to get through. I wish the administration just bulls ahead and doesn't pull back certain groups from benefiting. Getting this done as widely as possible is worth a few rich people benefitting.

Just your average, everyday "mediocre" former president.

'While these hopeless lawsuits fly around, the Biden administration is accepting millions of applications for relief, and it will start canceling debt very soon. The time has come for Republicans to stop fantasizing about some 11-dimensional chess move to kill the plan in court and begin contemplating realistic political solutions.

There is one obvious response: Republicans could promise to reimpose all student debt canceled by Biden as soon as they retake the White House. It is typically within the executive branch’s powers to void a previous administration’s unlawful policy; even when millions have come to rely on that policy, the courts may still let the new president kill it. (After Dobbs, it’s not even clear that reliance interests still exist.) Griesbach acknowledged this possibility in his opinion, and it’s curious that GOP lawmakers are not discussing it. Their silence vividly illustrates their party’s strategy of passing off unpopular political decisions to the federal courts to minimize political backlash. If Republicans truly believe Biden’s program is an outrageous and unconscionable assault on the Constitution, they should stop crafting hopeless lawsuits and start warning borrowers that their debt will reappear once their party recaptures the executive branch.'

The first Supreme Court challenge to Biden’s student debt relief is a joke

... seems pretty obvious that that would motivate many people to vote... and (probably) not in the way Republicans would like. (Not unless they promise to replace it with money for their voters at least... I don't think just giving it to their donors and expecting political ads / astroturfing / etc. to carry the day would be enough, but I may be being overly optimistic about the electorate....)

Seems a very minor punishment for defying a senate subpoena investigating an insurrection. Harry the stuff to break a man. He should be jailed until he complies.

Sad thing is the Kool-Aid drinking MAGAers will only view it as adding to his legend. "Fucking Bannon is a savage man!"

'If Republicans take back the House, as they’re very favored to do, the Kevin McCarthy speakership is going to be a pyrotechnic show of dysfunction. Most of it—like the conversion of the Ways and Means Committee room into an art exhibition of Hunter Biden’s sex and drug videos—will be dismissible. But [...] McCarthy confirmed a couple areas where House Republicans are looking to create real problems for the world. First, they are, as ever (when there’s a Democratic president), going to take the debt ceiling hostage [...] Democrats [would] be wise to consider raising it on their own, via reconciliation, in the postelection lame-duck session, rather than watching everything they believe in get taken hostage next year. Second, McCarthy cast doubt on Republicans’ willingness to continue sending military and economic assistance to Ukraine. [...] Can’t they just do something innocuous, like jailing Hillary Clinton?'

McConnel isintroducing a 50 billion relief package for UA for 2023, to be voted during the lame duck period specifically to kill this.

NeoCons and their MIC sponsors are not gonna let Trumpers shut down their war profits, at least.

Right-wing doctor [...] best known for her belief in demon sperm, urged attendees to pray that both satellites and voting machines be destroyed.

[...] “We need to pray and crush… the demonic satellites. We need to send a holy ghost virus into their computers, to destroy them, so they will not function, or until our election is over,” [...]
