The Democrats did in fact do the right thing for the country: they helped get rid of a house speaker so awful that he allowed Fergus to make his decisions for him. Fergus, after all, was soundly defeated in his last election, and the Democrats were just doing their part to try and keep him the fuck out of the government. So obviously they must be punished... most likely with a speaker even farther up Fergus' butt.
Goddamn Republicans seem to really like shitting where one is not supposed to shit. The halls of congress, day care centers, human decency, the constitution, you name it and there has been a goddamn Republican turd there. I guess that Sean Hannity's dad never broke out the belt during his toilet training.
Thank you again for the podcast. Got my flu shot yesterday, and bought a slice of cheesecake with a coupon, but somehow managed to lose our bag of peanut butter M&Ms before we got to the checkout. I do like it that they are calling the "motion to vacate the chair" MTV... I guess they have never heard of Mojo Nixon.

If the Florida governor and the state house GOP can ban dangerous books but not do anything to prevent dangerous mass shootings . Does it cause anyone to ask why?

Why can the media book Matt the Gaetz on their shows to wallow in their imaginary world but MTP had to spew the right wing rhetoric to book and have GOP guests on?

While Eric Trump's wife gets air time to cry that the liberals are killing her singing career as she murderously garbles To, Petty songs they can't hold back from blaring Donald's announcement of how he loves the Hannibal Lector character.

How the media echoes the mental illness of the GOP blaming Democrats for ousting McCarthy, they also get the right to blame Biden (alone) for Hamas attacking Israel.

But when it comes to the Dixie Chicks?

When it comes to GOP Liz Cheney addressing Trump's insurrectionist behavior and activity?

When the House GOP vote to silence Adam Schiff from the Intel Committee"

When a republican packed Supreme court majority of Federalist Society appointed Justices can dismiss the First Amendment, Not Government shall not establish religion, the Freedom of religion. Dismiss that and replace it with the Justices stating they are ruling with their personal held religious beliefs. Forcing Citizens to obey by law their religious laws?

When GOP Rep. Jim Jordan self silences himself to testify to congress. To ignored subpoena to speak out and tell it like it is. To let Americans know what is really going on in his head and what he believes. He shuts himself up.

That would be liberal fault again.

Just an observation, is there any of this ( there is much more not mentioned) that actually is performing the business of the American people? That deserve pay for their time. How do they explain and convince anyone that their behavior and activities' is representative of a;; Americans. Not just MAGA, TEA Poopy, QANON or their religious right.
Because all of these groups are minorities Astro turfed voices blared at full volume so to be considered loud and big.

There is this history question about the Civil War. How did the wealthy plantation owners of the South back then, and they were few but wealthy and powerful.

Get the poor white/ free southerners to fight and die for the right for the plantation owners with slaves to continue to rule even the free whites of the south?

Like, I don't send money to The self proclaimed Billionaire Trump for his legal defense fund. Nor would I do it For the Rudi, The Pillow guy, Kraken, lady, or the snotty elitist Peter Navarro.

Nor would I put my life on the line and fight for any of that. What is their cause that they want other people to do the fighting for them about?
I served and fought in war for this country and our freedoms. These dudes want to take them away, find themselves in legal financial dire. And they want us to fight and send money to them.
Tell me when did Trump or any of these MADA fight for us? Send money to us?

When Kushner made a deal and sold things to the Saudi's and got $2 billion Where is my share of that?

When Donald use our military secrets to boast himself for business and profit. Those secrets belonged to Americans too. So where is our share?

This, while tax payers wait for the fiscal responsible budget cutting GOP in the house to figure out who will be their speaker. Their pay and health care doesn't stop.

When union labor goes on strike. Their pay and health care stops.
You see, for them and not for us. Watch how GOP tells us we can afford to fund defense of Israel but not Ukraine.

It is the pro life abortion laws because of their idea of their Jesus. But legal prostitutions and sex trade in Nevada is a state right that their Jesus allows. It is right there in their GOP Bible that billionaire Harlan Crow owns and only shows Justice Thomas.

Just a few thoughts.
