Schiff and Swallwell would make mincemeat out of those insurrectionist rump kissers. The whole pathetic group’s collective brain is smaller than one of Schiff and Swallwell’s brain cells.

“Insurrection Defense Committee” is the appropriate name. The “weaponization of the government” took place a few years back. My gast was flabbered at how fast chump and cronies did just that. Goebbels would have proud; this shitshow should indeed reveal the clowns with flamethrowers as the destruction derby that they surely are. Hear that, our MSM. Do you have ears…

I love

first of all

your title, TC. It is as a fort with the bricks scrambled The BOLD CAPS are armaments with a false front.

I would not say that the 'Select Subcommittee' is 'on Weaponization of the Federal Government', Call it what it is: The de-weaponization, the de-structure, the de-function of the fe d er al -- can you see the walls tumbling down?

Do you recognize the drooling mouths and soiled diapers of the wreckers?

I love

the way you throw mud and sewerage between the letters of their names

and at their faces, TC.

It's ZOO time in America.

RE: Ds drinking on the House floor during R's Speaker nomination debacle

Not sure if there's a specific House rule against drinking on the floor (probably is), or if any Ds actually broke it (probably not). But while not wishing to engage in the fine art of whataboutism, there's a rule in the House dress code that Jim Jordan conspicuously flouts daily, and has done so for, well, pretty much as long as he's been there, begging the question: if rules are going to be broken, which has a better reason to do so, considering that my watching the tiny bit of that shitshow that I did required a good stiff drink in my hand to avoid filling my hand with my .45 and dispatching my flat screen to Samsung Heaven.

If any Ds did, in fact, break some rule regarding the presence and use of alcohol on the floor where much of this nation's business is conducted, I'd predict that if that were an offense that could land one in a courtroom, under those particular circumstances there's not an impartial jury in the world that would convict.

Now, as to that rule about actually doing one's job in a manner that benefits one's constituents in particular and the country in general, who there might readily be accused of breaking that one? Well, no one, of course, since there is no such rule. Only an oath. To the Constitution. And we all know what those are worth and who values them these days.

Back in the day, a few circuses would make their way to small towns and I was lucky enough to see a couple under the big tent. I will not be in the audience for this circus of misfit ignoramus seditionists masquerading as clowns. They don't deserve my time or attention. TC, thanks for doing the dirty work on our behalf. I just hope in their efforts to destroy this country and all of its institutions, they manage to take themselves out...in prime time. For THAT, I'll show up and even spring for a box of popcorn.

How 'bout we create a Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Insurrection Defense Committee? (Sorry, just trying to wend my way oh-so-merrily through so much to be disgusted with.) Failing mightily.

"The Papule Inquisition Committee" ?

The analysts for these chimps are now busily crafting what they think are clever one-liners and assorted zingers meant for media consumption. It's a continuation of the insurrection but with no climbing or charging; it will be done while sitting and twitching about on their arses and making screeching noises. (Apologies to our lower primate friends who often show wonder and dignity.)

I am hoping that their dysfunction is so deep and so warped that they will begin devouring one another and self-destruct before our eyes!

They coalesce in the face of a perceived enemy... but working together to get anything else done for their constituents may prove to be beyond their pay grade.

I keep thinking about the way Merryl Streep's character met her end in Don't Look Up. Just when she thought she was safe.,,,,,,,,

Barnburner of a final sentence, TC.

Agree 1000%. Do the Dems have it in them to do this? I can imagine Nancy has sharpened her behind the scenes prod.

Salud, friend. Love and shine to Jurate.

Today's column addresses an issue in which I am particularly interested - accountability for the insurrection supporters -- or in this case, the lack thereof. I would love to see you explore the mechanics of how these creeps can be brought to justice, including expulsion from Congress. How would this process work? Who can initiate this under the 14th Amendment Sec. 3? How can we make this dog bite? Are we stuck with these swine in unbeatable gerrymandered districts in perpetuity, since their constituents are reliable votes and the ballot box is not a remedy? I'd really like something positive to glom onto. Thanks.

I wish other writers could get this message across. I sometimes don't know what's worse; the House Republicans or the people wringing their hands over them being the House majority.

Well, TC, once again you have summed this up beautifully. I would love to be able to ghost every one of these folks when they are standing in front of the bathroom mirror in the mornings and whisper something like "Remember the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come from Dickens...this shall be your fate if you don't start telling the truth." Every day, until they go mad, or wake up. Watching all this from the outside is a study in the corruption of power and greed that occurs all too frequently in those hallowed halls, which appear to be losing the "hallowed" designation more rapidly every year. (Or perhaps that is because as I grow older, I pay more attention to what is going on there.) Be all this as it may, I appreciate your summation, and your research, and just your sheer pluck. Take care, and have a good weekend.

At least Ringling Brothers was a well

organized circus 🎪. Anyone notice

how touchy the Ringleader is with the MSM lately? Guess he's not sleeping very well.😁

Insurrection Defense Committee indeed. Well said, sir.

What a line-up of people who should not even be in the same building with a Congressional Committee, unless being investigated by same. I hope the Dems do the right thing on Committee appointments!
