    From the Biden thread:

    The GOP house needs a major fumigation.

    Hypocrisy should be the new name for the GOP.

    If NPD Trump was a Democrat, the Repubs would've impeached him over the Ukraine extortion.

    Ask a die hard Republican how they would feel if NPD Trump had done everything he did as a Democrat. They won't give you straight answer because they refuse see their hypocrisy.

    Newt Gingrich: FBI raid part of plan to indict Trump before politically hostile DC jury — Fox News

    Newt Gingrich…I once saw him, chilling at a bar in DC…Alexandria to be specific.
    I wanted to go over and tear him a new asshole.
    But I gave to discretion and restrain.
    Why???

    IMHO, he’s the one that ruined the GOP.
    It went from old-school Republican that I actually liked and were relatively gentleman conservative.
    Like George Bush Sr.
    …To ravenous and raging…full of spit & bile.
    Any means to an end, submarine the opposition, no compromise version I detest for the past 3 decades.
    (and I switched from Republican to Independent since…GDI)

    Now here he comes yet again…to save T.
    The same ethically compromised man who cheated on his cancer ridden wife and ego driven that he had a hissy fit on Airforce One because he wasn’t being paid attention to by reporters.

    Frankly, if I saw him again…I wouldn’t hold back.
    Then again, I’m a lot more capable and articulate than 20 years ago. He’d have his ears full and then some. (Be good practice too, sparring with a guy that’s very use to spin and getting what he wants. ;) )

    I hope the reporters and opposition pundits are able to put him in his place and humiliate him. And I hope the new Dems and good judges are able to humble him yet again.

    Save the Democratic institutions and incarcerate T.
    He has his agenda…I have mine.

    FOX might be the only news media (if FOX can be considered as such) giving Newt an outlet.

    Challenging and debunking Newt's statements, and hopefully embarrassing him, would be great.

    Not giving him the media attention he craves would also be great, and perhaps the most effective way to shut him down.

    So basically the whole premise of the GOP is,
    “The Boy Who Cried Wolf” :rolleyes:

    Anything the do NOT win, they claim it’s rigged
    Or something is wrong with the system.

    Frankly, it’s in sync with their now M.O.

    - every accusation is an admission
    - any means to an end
    - their way or the highway
    - never compromise
    - always attack
    - never admit wrong
    - if it’s not working, double down
    - scream first, keep screaming
    …and so on.

    They’re now a wicked combination of Dick Dastardly
    And the most bratty douchebag click of Jr. High :|

    FYI, I was a Republican long ago,
    I became an Independent, a GDI.
    This is why, I saw it coming.

    Interesting read, but it's also sensational journalism. The writer gives something of relatively minor mportance coverage pretty much only because it draws attention. But that's been an issue since journalism & news became a competition for popularity & profit (of course with political agendas in the mix).

    They're comparing Biden to Hitler? Is it possible some NPD Trump supporters are orchestrating a counter attack to shift the Hitler image away from NPD Trump?

    Very true.
    But that's been their M.O. since the beginning, like their Master & Figurehead, T,
    Rage & spittle, smoke & mirrors and decoy & redirect.

    It's like a malicious version of the Wizard of Oz
    Don't look behind the curtain.

    However, here it's VERY important to LOOK behind the curtain,
    see and acknowledge what is real, the bile, bias and insidious nature.
    and ACT!

    Squash & spray the cockroaches. Get them out of the house or under control.
    Because otherwise, they lay eggs all over your nice place you live, eat and have family & friends.

    It's not polite politics anymore, those in power need to understand (and the opposition public & supporters)
    This is not an illusion, not political posturing, not bluff, rhetoric and spin.

    It's REAL, they are crazy...intelligent, cognizant and capable, but still looney-tunes...
    The want what they want, by any means necessary, including violence now...and undermining the governments, system & society we value.
    It's not IF but WHEN they attempt to take it away...and the minority controls and subjugates the majority. (like what was Iraq, under Saddam Hussein - one family to rule them all)

    So if Americans (most) want America to STAY free & civil
    They got to realize that many of these extremists actually BELIEVE this dark faerie tail. (and whatever gibberish they come up)
    Biden is Hitler, QAnon, Hillary is doing a pedo ring at the bottom of a pizzaria...
    And last, that Biden did NOT win the election and T is STILL president and leader of ALL with absolute impunity.

    And they HAVE used violence to get what they want...and they will AGAIN repeatedly.
    They're crazy and incompetent...but they WILL try & try again...until they get it right or overwhelm or corrupt.

    That's the scary part...it's NOT sensational. It's happening, real...it just seems exaggerated.
    Because who in their right mind would believe a mass of normal people would say & do that???
    But they ARE. And they're not in their right mind.
    It's just one part of the MANY things that ARE going on.
    And even more scary...this is just the tip of the iceberg.

    Question: What is the news NOT reporting or catching?
    What do we NOT know about??? (including the government)
    This crazy has been going on and growing for years.
    How many crazy cockroaches?
    What have they corrupted?
    Where the rot?

    Ignorance is NOT bliss for this.
    The crazy cockroaches WILL take over if they aren't dealt with.

    It's not sensational anymore...I'm not exaggerating.
    The crazy is real...not just name calling.
    Do we want the loonies to rule?

    Then start believing more in the crazy news.
    Because that's NOT the worst of it. There's more and it's hiding in the dark, unknown & unseen.
    Skepticism is to our benefit right now.

    That's the mistake Lord Chamberlain made when judging Hitler.
    To bring is back around to our Godwin ref start.
    Except here, it's not Godwin...it's not Hitler.
    (IMHO, more like Saddam Hussein and his tyrannical minority party/tribe in Iraq - no exaggeration, that's where we're going, just not a desert country, but here in the US)

    Unfortunately putting a spotlight on the loonies also means putting them on the stage.

    Ignore them at our own peril, or give them attention at our own peril? Damned if you do, damned if you don't.

    Top-Secret Mar-a-Lago Documents Were Just Steps From Huge Catering Hall: MIchael Cohen

    Yes, there’s that risk.
    But better to have a known evil than unknown

    As these articles notes what I was saying…
    That there may be MORE documents not recovered
    There may be some elsewhere
    There may be some missing or taken
    Etc…what was NOT found???
    There’s going to have to be a complete investigation of what was taken during the whole damn past 5 years.
    And what was copied or photographed???
    Even by foreign enemies
    Some foreign allies with an agenda
    Or even internal opposition to the federal government
    Any misused you can think of
    And even more that you can’t.

    And that’s just THIS case and context and actors…
    We’re seriously talking about a vast number of people,
    Doing often malicious or nefarious things to fulfill their agenda and desires.
    NOT normal political activity
    But either for the usurpation of power and control unto just themselves, in bias against all others.
    OR criminal intent for self benefit by either corporate, internal AND many foreign entities.

    Both likely exists…
    A. T’s administration was a incredible leak of information to many people of interest and ill intent.
    B. 5 % of the population trying to take over control against the remaining 95%. (No joke)

    That means the whole Biden administration and Pentagon have a short time, to unravel, investigate, find and in some way shape or form, nullify the activities of all these people.
    AND
    All of the departments and entities of the U.S (and some allies) are going to have to find out what was taken or recorded. (Makes Wikileaks seem like a drop)

    Think of a Mission Impossible movie on a incredible scale…with a global scope.
    No joke.

    Now we know WHY Biden thought it was worth the risk to do a speech…
    Wouldn’t you???

    If you were president and you’ve found out there IS a vast conspiracy and HAS been a vast theft.

    It wasn’t just a speech.
    It was a starting pistol.

    There’s going to be a HUGE inside civil war and hunt.
    Yes, he’s going cockroach spraying.

    Meanwhile, the Archives are likely going to head up and coordinate a vast detective search by ALL US entities.
    And the State department is likely going to be negotiating with other countries
    1. To hunt outside the US
    2. To let the allies know they may have be compromised
    3. Apologize constantly and repair our reputation…again.

    This IS a clusterfuck.
    This IS an infestation
    Most people are oblivious to it.
    AND the bad guys will be doing smoke, mirrors, obfuscation, redirection, CYA and accusing Biden and the Dems the whole fucking way.
    WHILE trying to gain power and control BACK.

    If we survive…
    This will make a hell of a movie or docu-series.
    Civil War level.

    So yes, IMHO it’s worth the risk.
    I ain’t just whistling Dixie.

    Dems erase GOP’s Senate advantage

    May y'all lose many, if not all. :mad:
    Normally, I'm not so lopsided or biased. But GOP has brought this on themselves.
    Supporting T - Pathetic.
    Being spoilers in the Senate - Pathetic
    Horrid candidate - Pathetic
    Bad reps and senators, bad policy, bad, bad, bad...all pathetic.

    It's like a Nazi wannabe Jr. High school dunce has been running the show for the past some years at the GOP...
    No subtle activity too, very crude and clumsy. Except for all the smoke & mirrors and behind the scenes manipulations.
    Like the poor grade child writing crib notes on their hands (and legs :oops:) to cheat at the test.

    Now the C- student is going to surpass y'all. :rolleyes:
    And hopefully, they squeal on your cheating asses.
    Y'all need to be suspended. (if not expelled :eek:)

    Nice summary list. *But add many independents and moderates too. :)
    Scary part is...these ARE just the tip of the iceberg. (what we're aware of, what we know...:eek:)

    Everything I hate about the GOP. (and I was Republican... :oops:)
    They've taken the slippery slope to hell with relish...like a water park slide but with an oil slick.

    Comparing the Dems to them is like measuring a C- HS student with an F student that's been held back and got caught cheating on the GED. :confused:

    These SOBs are wannabe Dick Dastardly's but can't even get that right (never will catch that pidgin)

    And the only thing keeping them afloat are a ravenous base, rules that cater to the minority party from small states
    AND the inattention of the American public who often vote like it's Jr. High again. (IF they vote at all :rolleyes:)

    This is why we can't have nice things...
    Oh, don't get me wrong, the American engine is stronger than any other nation, to create power & $$$, for the powers that be and consumerism.
    But it's on the backs of the typical citizens who are continuously treated like widget making manufacturing line workers (even doctors and techs, etc)
    And being fee'd to death and relying on those who just want to have a normal life and some fun...to purchase constantly overpriced homes, cars and products.

    Something the GOP espouses to...throwing the normal Joe under the bus, for $$$, whether they're oblivious to it or not.
    All under the essence of "It's good for jobs!!"
    We're a bunch of dups to them. Spinning...like they're mad poisonous spiders weaving webs to catch flies...just to suck them dry.

    NOW, they're saying "Fuck it", we'll break all the rules even more so...to take over. (and have a yard sell for Russia & China corrupt leadership) :mad:

    The Dems are mischievous choirboys in comparison...to these pedophile priests being hushed off to another perish. :rolleyes:

    IMHO, I'm pissed off as all hell...and I'm not gonna fucking take it anymore!!!
    The GOP can rot in a sewer.
    Start over conservatives. Find your souls again. :(

    These shits need to go. Jail hopefully.

    People are greedy. Raygun made greed cool...again.

    The Republicans will be fine as long as the GOP message is "You earned the money, you should be able to keep as much of it as possible. The Republican Party is here to make certain you keep as much of your money as possible."

    Except...they want them to tithe...ahem, excuse me...donate as much as legally possible to the GOP.

    Something that Steven Bannon is under indictment for, as we speak.
    Wha...you can NOT do fraud??? :rolleyes:

    Let's hope the other scammers got put into slammers too.
    All the way up to, T.

    The GOP certainly doesn't turn down contributions, regardless of the source. But something tells me the bulk comes from corporations and the wealthy (legally & illegally). And of course China & Russia.

    NPD Trump definitely lit a financial fire with the "commoners."

    Will enough financial heavyweights (threaten to) withhold contributions in an attempt to force the GOP to separate from NPD Trump? I dont think so, not while contol is within GOP grasp.

    The Repubs still thinking clearly and seeing the big picture have a long way to go bring sanity back to the GOP, esp when their "representatives" insist on drinking the Orange kool-aid.

    Good book name
    About the supporters & allies of T.

    It’s getting to be like poor reboot of Game of Thrones :rolleyes:
    Frankly, I don’t feel sorry for them…they’re a bunch of mad and narcissistic tribal cockroaches.

    The GOP has become a Hollywood vampire nest
    Or a stupid version of House Lannister.

    HOWEVER, I do feel sorry for the remainder of US
    …the citizens, voters and leaders that ARE rational.
    If we’re foolish enough to not act.

    If so,
