Re: The Political Junkie Thread

Liar extraordinaire has basically a week to clean out his office. More than 60 lawmakers who previously voted against expelling Santos reportedly now plan to support ousting him when a bill comes to the floor after the House returns next Tuesday from its Turkey Day break, Politico reported, citing ...

Re: The Political Junkie Thread

I could read a novel's worth of ideas from Senator Josh Hawley that I think are vile, but I do agree with him on his stance on campaign finance. In fact most Democrats do. Mitch McConnell however thinks that limiting corporate influence (money) to outside groups (PACs) is a terrible idea, and is te...

Re: The Political Junkie Thread

Great column in the NYT today by David French about how Biden is handling foreign policy (sorry - I know it is paywalled). French is a lifelong Republican whose politics I generally do not agree with, but he is also very strongly anti-Trump and his columns give a great look under the hood of the Rep...

Re: The Political Junkie Thread

Assholes at work. Republicans have pushed through an aggressive gerrymander of North Carolina's congressional map that will help them flip several seats in Congress. Those looming GOP pickups will bolster the party’s chances of defending their narrow House majority next year by erasing or even surp...

Now Meadows get immunity in DC. That's a pretty big deal. I wonder if Trump is really sweating, or just fuming?
When he sweats, does he leave an orange trail behind him like Rudy's running hair dye?

I really want a smilie or gif for eating popcorn. The orange felon and his cronies in the House call for it.

Re: The Political Junkie Thread

What is really killing me is that so-called moderate Republicans are allowing the extremists to run the House. If they had a shred of decency and courage, they would reach across the aisle to Democrats, neutralize the extremists, and actually govern. Instead, they allow Trump and Putin to pull all ...

Re: The Political Junkie Thread

Lock him up. Lock him up. If anyone else was saying things about a judge like he is, they would be in jail. I don't really care what his idiot MAGA followers say. If they don't like it, they can create their own country with their own laws. Sam Bankman-Fried is in a nearby jail in Brooklyn, and Jeff...

Re: The Political Junkie Thread

Truly lousy timing for Senator Menendez to be facing calls for his resignation. Even if only temporary, two vacant Democrat seats in the Senate is meaningful. Excellent point. Newsom had to see this coming so hopefully has someone ready to go. Unfortunately there is a ton of politics involved, in t...

Re: The Political Junkie Thread

I assume he will stay silent (and likely doesn't even know who she is), but it would be on brand for Trump to say something nasty about Feinstein. I am hoping this NY real estate case moves quickly and takes a lot of his money. I didn't realize it had the potential to have a pretty big impact. I wou...

Re: The Political Junkie Thread

Mitt Romney calls it wraps. https://www.yahoo.com/news/utah-gop-sen-mitt-romney-175517614.html I have mixed feelings about him. Yes, he is better than the MAGA folks. And he has taken some anti-Trump stands. But not nearly enough. He won his last election in 2018 when Trump was sitting president, a...

Re: The Political Junkie Thread

Mitt Romney calls it wraps. Utah Republican Sen. Mitt Romney said Wednesday that he will not run for reelection in 2024, creating a wide-open contest in a state that heavily favors Republicans and is expected to attract a crowded field. Romney, a former presidential candidate and governor of Massac...

Re: The Political Junkie Thread

'Cue up the ire of conservatives everywhere as Nancy Pelosi embarks on her 100th re-election run. (Probably 100th. :p ) Between her and Feinstein they really have the geriatrics from California. At least she is only running for a two year term. Given McConnell's unfortunate recent situations and Gr...

Re: The Political Junkie Thread

My Dad: “Gas prices are high because Biden has cut our oil production by 1.2 billion barrels a day!” I did quick Google search because that number sounded really high. Leo and behold, we don’t produce that much if I read the numbers correctly. What they do show, though, is that it did drop when he ...

Re: The Political Junkie Thread

After making my last post, I went to Ramaswamy's wiki page to learn more about him. I'm struggling to understand how the average MAGA lover will support a Hindu who went to Harvard undergrad and Yale law and "He has described himself as an animal rights activist, writing that it is "wrong to kill se...

Re: The Political Junkie Thread

Ramaswamy annoys the absolute snot out of me. I've never watched him speak before, but good lord, that ventriloquist dummy smile on his face is awful, and what he says is more awful. The amount of cheers he gets is disturbing. Christie is doing a fair job of holding his own. There are like three or...

Re: The Political Junkie Thread

Who’s watching the debate tonight? I’m torn between wanting to watch/be informed and not wanting to give Fox any viewership. I likely won't watch live - I will read the summaries and see the Youtube highlights in the morning. It might give me nightmares before bedtime. With so many people and Fox h...
