Trump has taken over minions ( magas) and republicans that are afraid to lose their jobs… Mike Turner is one of the few that stood up to him and was trying to do his JOB . The others are trying to get money!!!
This little masculine decision by Johnson/Trump could come back and bite the GOP when it comes time to vote for legislation. Turner isn't stupid,he knows his political future is virtually over, but he can do real damage to any legislation the GOP puts forward. This could be very interesting.
I think that one of the main reasons why so many people and corporations suck up to trumpy is because they know he will do corrupt things for them and they want corrupt things done for them.
So I schooled up on Vought's hearing. So my fellow feds, here's my take. If you ever depended on Congress to save your programs when the WH zero'd you out, even in light of impoundment act, I'd think twice. There are no rules, norms, and scotus is undependable.
Additionally, he is looking forward to terrifying us. I am sure that message has been passed to transition teams.
Don't be scared!! Nothing this convicted criminal does will scare me or cause me to not speak out!! That's what they want...for all of us to be scared or terrified. DONT BE!! Instead be bold, speak out, punch back, if you fight for what's right you're fighting the GOOD FIGHT!!
I believe that SCROTUS (Supreme Court Republicans of the United States) is entirely dependable if you're MAGA trumpy. Well, except for the poorer ones. And the women, And the minorities. And anyone who believes that anything other than the missionary position is a perversion.
So Trump just added another NAY vote to the Republican Senators - is what I see. Turner is a smart guy and as revenge or just common sense may vote down every Trump action that could hurt American foreign policy. Also Trump creates a Lord of the Flies atmosphere in the WhiteHouse - so we can look forward to leaking of info to US public - which will increase scrutiny on their shenanigans.
You CAN NOT say the face eating leopards are wrong and then turn around and vote for the leader of the face eating leopards. That said. I would like to see some of his Dem colleagues court his ass with nice. Don't need him to change parties, need to know he is a vote that can be persuaded down the road on things like Ukraine aid.
The Obamas did what they could. Anybody saying anything about Barack Obama needs to remember he was hamstrung by a Republican Congress in 2010 BECAUSE ENOUGH WHITE PEOPLE DID NOT VOTE FOR DEMOCRATS.
And anyone trying to blame Michelle Obama despite the fact that she is keeping to her principles by refusing to support a man who endangered her family's lives -- because she's still going to get flack for that despite the fact that DONALD TRUMP REFUSED TO ATTEND JOE BIDEN'S INAUGURATION LIKE THE PETTY BABY HE IS AND PUBLIC OFFICEHOLDER HE WAS AT THE TIME -- needs to be reminded that she never held public office and therefore was not empowered by the American people to do ANYTHING. She served her country and owes the U.S. electorate NOTHING.
The blame lies squarely at the feet of certain people. Merrick Garland is among them, so is any White person who failed to vote for Kamala Harris for POTUS.
Trying to scapegoat Black and brown men for voting for Donald WHEN WHITE PEOPLE ARE STILL IN THE VOTING AND POPULATION MAJORITY is not going to work, sorry. That math isn't mathing.
White people are to blame, and the whole country is going to suffer.
Voting numbers are cumulative, so I think that anyone who voted for trump is responsible for his election. If I wanted to scapegoat a group, I think I'd start with what I suspect is a large number of voters who will not vote for a woman for President, especially if she's also black.
I’m not blaming Obama for when he was President, I’m asking that powerful people who love democracy and a diverse beautiful strong resilient America STAND UP & Protect her. Pls don’t misinterpret or put words in my mouth, appreciate, respect TY
*sigh* Out of coffee. I guess an evening trip to Market Basket is in the plans. If it were warm out it would be a pleasant stroll. It's not. I might drive. Getting sick of winter.

Time to start disappearing people from photos, ala Stalin.
How quaint.
Time to start disappearing people.
And photos.
"...concerns from Mar-a-Lago"? My first thought: concerns from the Kremlin. Also my second thought. Also every thought I've had since.

Moving three steps backwards instead of four isn't merely "very interesting".
Bad news on the doorstep... or computer screen.... or scream.
Ta, Evan. No video for me, but glad you posted it.

or corrupt things against them if they don't pay him.
So basically Mike Johnson is the Waylon Smithers to TFG's Monte Burns. My apologies to Smithers and Burns.

Hang in there my friends

How's this affect the price of eggs again?

Totally agree!! My bold prediction about tRumps staff or appointments is that many won't last two years. Watch this space!!
Tabitha tells us exactly how extensive Donald's "I don't know anything about Project 2025" LIES were

92% were not fooled - but the worst part is this is going to be FAFO time for America, not just Confederate Republicans

Wouldn’t have sucked to have heard OHJB, KH, Obama’s, & EVERY DEMOCRAT in Power DO SOMETHING/ ANYTHING to protect USA

The democrats love all people and America is now divided into white nationalists and democrats!
This is a direct quote

Did you forget what you wrote so quickly?

I still think Marker Basket is a weird name for a supermarket!
Used to be Demoulas' Market Basket. Old people sometimes still call it "Demoulas".
I assume he’ll be replaced by MTG.
She's overqualified for the PAB Administration
