as Christina Greer put it on Jonathan Capehart’s show this morning, “Listening to what Mike Pence has said this morning makes me glad I don’t know any moral cowards.” Or as I put it to myself, waking up to the news first thing in on a Sunday morning that someone I think of as a worthless moral piece of shit has publicly demonstrated the paucity of my imagination to describe just how worthless, how spineless, how morally vacant, how intellectually failing, how fucking STUPID that moral piece of shit really is - makes me want to puke.
Before I even read this - just finished a book by Pat Schroeder (Colorado Rep 1972-1996) called "24 Years of House Work AND the place is still a mess. She just passed away about a week ago. Want to see how little "family issues" have progressed and how much politics has remained the same?
Really worth reading - I started it yesterday & finished this morning. Boy if only we had more like her!
And TC, will go back & read your piece later-promise.
McCarthy "directing relevant committees to immediately investigate if federal funds are being used to subvert our democracy" is an unnecessary waste of time and of the taxpayers' money, since this is indeed a fact, and he has all the proof he needs readily at hand: his pay stub.
"And I, for my part, I just feel like it’s just not what the American people want to see." Welp, Mr Pence, the American people didn't want to see four years of dismantlement of our country, the lies, grift, stupidity, divisiveness, hatred, politization/weaponization of DOJ, DOE, USPS, on and on, under your dear leader's and your (!) administration. Also, to which Tuesday are these dimwits referring? OK, back to the postcards to WI.
Some time in the very near future the "media" must begin to end their interpretation of what the gop is doing as "conservative" and that we're dealing with a once political party called republican. This party is a Fascist party now. Maybe it should be called GFP. It has nothing to do with the whole notion of Republic - where the people are participants in ways that are not primarily about burning things down or hanging people outside statehouses, or keeping women from having health care. As long as pundits keep calling what the gop is shoveling "conservative" the whole notion of conservative loses all meaning. And isn't that the point? Make language meaningless OR even worse, able to mean whatever some demagogue says it means ala Kellye Ann Conway. These folks have been reading putin's playbook, and orban's whom they worshipped at the "conservative" whatever it is a year ago in Texas. Sickening. There is no normalizing this junk being spewed by the ever back-slapping happy Sununu or the morality revenant pence. He has the perfect name - pence - not worth much!
I'm just shaking my head again like Jack Crabb at the end of Little Big Man. I can hear your obscenity laden cries of outrage from here, Tom.
Pence most assuredly does NOT know what most Americans want. This American wants Pinocchio that used to reside in the White House to be soundly punished for his habitual oral diarrhea of untruths.
Reading what Ms. Goon said literally elevated my respiration rate and I felt a hot clinch in my core, I had to resort to 4-7-8 breathing to recover myself.
All these dastardly operatives are interested in nothing but their own power and wealth. I am convinced that they are dancing to the tune of an evil puppet-master, because there isn't a single coherent thought between all of them. Grrrr . . . .
And Sununu's reference to "overly negative ways", is there an acceptable level of negative ways? And the thing that is most disturbing about all of this bullshit is that there are sorry people out there that are eating it up with a spoon, and the sources of all this know that what they are spewing will be uncritically believed and embraced.
Mother’s little boy is a toxic blob of jello. I despise him along with the rest of the lying fascists you quoted. I’m usually a very caring person but that comes to screeching halt with this group, and the rest of the mendacious Republicans. I particularly loathe Stefanik who has slunk so low bowing to the orange nazi, her nose is brown..or maybe orange. Marge T Goon is a deplorable albeit dangerous idiot. And the rest are all lying scumbags. I’m feeling nauseous as well.
Well no Frankom, probably nothing can penetrate their tiny pea sized brains. Mike Pence was chosen to be VP because he has no moral fiber and is as moldable as Play-dough. His time as VP is as close as he will get to the Oval Office. Those other nitwits are just performing monkeys like in the days of organ grinders.
TC, I had to quit reading about halfway through because I also thought I was going to throw up. I'm traveling and facilities are not available. I am so tired of these stupid Republican antics. These people make Beavis and Butthead look intellectual.
It is totally baffling to us realists how these unmoored people can continue to live in their bubble of make-believe. is there nothing that can penetrate into their addled minds?
Meanwhile, Ashley Parker, who MSNBC puts on the air as though she's a reporter, co-wrote a Washington Post article (with her colleague Michael Scherer) about how Pence is now "unmoored" from Orange Wannabe Hitler. As if we needed further proof that the overwhelming majority of the DC political media are treasonous or abettors of treason and should be prosecuted.
All of this smoke and mirrors about the “politicization” of the DOJ is pure crap. There are no Democrat crimes vs Republican crimes ... there are just crimes. And while we all haggle over word choices, because the Republicans are so damn good at throwing in an inappropriate word to skew their narrative and incite outrage, on BOTH sides, they’re the ones performing in said circus... they’re all dangerous clowns. If I wasn’t afraid of clowns before I definitely am now. But nobody ever says a word about the politicization of the Supreme Court, the captured, bought and paid for SCOTUS...who can’t even form a code of ethics for themselves. Maybe the corruption IS too big, but I still see DA’s trying to clean it up. While Republicans throw smears with no viable options. Also, they don’t believe in separation of church and state. So rich! But they believe in freedom of speech, because LIES, and the right to bear arms, because SECESSION... must needs stop now before my speech becomes unhinged and obscene.
Keep screaming---I mean writing---all the crapola that comes out of the mouths of scum. They are vermin---and, let's face it, REAL evil. No need to mince words now---they are spewing lies and worse. Democrats need to load up the verbal guns and get out there in the street............
Thanks TC. Keep up the good work---and head to the you know where to clear it out when you need to......
All true TC. Here in Florida we have a front row seat to the making of a Fascist. Our governor wages war on DEI, trans, drag and liberal university programs. Meanwhile seas rise, car thefts explode, insurers pay penny’s on the dollar for storm damage, then double and triple premiums. Florida legislators responded by making it harder to sue insurers for bad faith. It’s a waking nightmare. Frankly the Stormy Daniels case seems like the least of our concerns.
During his days as a House member he was known as "Dense," even by his own colleagues. He is a very unholy combination of sanctimonious, unctious, and dumb. What he said doesn't surprise me so much as it proves the rule. I would like to know what Trump has on all of them to be such obsequious toadies.
Why would a real news organization give air to folks like Pence and company.

So glad I don’t watch Sunday morning programming anymore. Thank you for the update, TC.

I read this. Twice. I have no coherent words that are not profanity, blasphemy, or vulgarity to utter.
