Blog Credo

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.

They Are About To Own This

 Yesterday, I suggested that Democrats basically assert that everyone in the GOP is in favor of January 6th. Let them defend the indefensible, and don't give a shit if fact checkers give it 2,5 Pinocchios. 

Well, I guess we won't to worry about the fact checkers, because it sounds like McCarthy is going to lead the House Republicans over the cliff. He's apparently planning on forcing a vote on expunging Trump's two impeachments. The Politco piece suggests that he might struggle to actually get the votes, which would be hilarious. He forces his members to take a suicidal vote throwing their arms around Trump surrounding January 6th, just as Trump is about to be indicted and the evidence of his guilt made public.

What a moron.
