@RepLizCheney: Marjorie Taylor Greene now using her official USG congressional account to promote

Does she expect loser McCarthy to do something?? [I think not] McCarthy is as scared of Trump as the rest of the Repugs are.





@RepLizCheney
Marjorie Taylor Greene now using her official USG congressional account to promote anti-Semitic, white supremacist, pro-Hitler, pro-Putin conference. This is a toxin in the bloodstream of America. It must stop.

House GOP Leaders: Have you lost all sense of decency?

And she also claims not to have known anything about Fuentes.

... that she came to speak to the audience only. Well, she knows her audience because she is one of them.

Reeps, including Cheney, have had no decency
for a long time!

How low must the decency bar be for Cheney
to even ask that question?

June 09, 1954

In the Senate, Sen. Joseph McCarthy is asked by Joseph Welch, special counsel, “Until this moment, Senator, I think I never really gauged your cruelty or your recklessness. Have you no sense of decency, sir, at long last?”.

Different century, different McCarthy and still a good question. Worth asking again and always, I think.

muttered in a single sentence no less. And projection to boot, in terms of who happens to be obsessed with "the other" and "culture war" issues these days. MTG is outdoing herself.

I have to assume Republican leadership is completely for this kind of talk and belief.

Republicans had the opportunity to build up America with Trump, they didn't. They also interfered with Biden's BBB. If we're not building bridges in America, blame it on the Republicans.

...with the district that elected her? On the one hand, there's gotta be a breaking point. On the other, look at how many times Iowa reelected Steve King.

in ways that escaped our leaders, into traitors and patriots, with exposure for oligarchs and crooks, and I suspect the near-insolvent may not fare too well either.

one thing, treason and white racism are another. Censure her. Ignore her in the halls of Congress. Put some hate, metaphorically speaking of course, on her. Tell her to go to Russia. Snowden would have company.

She thinks dividing people into classes is Communist? I thought that was what capitalism was all about - class division. But I guess I should expect a single knowledgeable thing to come out of her mouth.

The big story is about how powerfully Ukraine has fought back against a previously-assumed nearly-invincible Russian military.

Many of our fellow Americans still cling to trump. And trump still clings to Putin. And Putin’s still trying to get his hooks into Ukraine. Whooya gonna side with?

I’m wondering what impact the visuals are gonna hav, especially as the war wears on. We’re in Day 5 as of this writing. If there’s increased Russian wreckage and carnage and destroyed Russian tanks and military vehicles in ditches - what impact will that have on the new Putin fans here?

Two dynamics at war here:
1) America loves a winner
2) nobody wants to admit they were wrong.
Which one will win?
