Her refusal to link the Big Lie with the voter suppression bills tells me that she's on board with rigging elections for Republicans, she just wants them to be less obvious about it and continue to rig things on the front end like they've been doing for the last several decades through voter suppression, gerrymandering, and every other dirty trick in their book.

She did literally one Good Thing, and we are giving credit where it is due especially since it hurt her professionally/politically to do that Good Thing. No one in their right mind on the Democratic side thinks she's some hero, the rest of her views and policies remain terrible. I mean, she's still a Cheney for fuckssake. Old Peen-Bald is a fucking moron per usual.

They have way too many TFG-loving moderators. But they will say "Kill all Libs" doesn't violate policy. Fuckers.

So, basically, the proper view of Darth Cheney Jr. is "wow, look. A Republican is telling the truth about one issue, for once"; instead of "Wow, look how honorable Darth Cheney Jr. is!".

Basically, she has no issue with GOP glassbowlery, just wants to keep it under the guise of the elite country club model that can pretend to be patriotic and religious.

I like to think no one really believed she had turned into a bomb throwing anarchist commie, but then I read news from her home state and everything gets a little confusing. Is she a Cheney? Yes she is. Raised in the evil lair of Commander Mumbles? Yes. A calculating and cold conservative to the bone? Obv's. Why would anyone trust her? Dunno.

After she gets voted out of office, who wants to bet that she assumes the Santorum chair at CNN?

It's easy to fake traffic: you just buy it via a company that sells traffic bot. There's a 96% chance Parscale is doing that, and a 99% chance he's not telling TFG the truth.

We need people in the GOP to speak up against fascism. But Liz Cheney has deliberately avoided connecting Jan. 6 to the fascist movement that created it. She's trying to have her cake and eat it too, and it is one ugly, ugly cake.

I haven't any read any of Peen-Bald's articles in a while, but last time I did, he had a tendency to conflate the possibility of somebody doing something with proof that they are in fact doing it. Especially when the "they" in question were liberals.
