And don't fucking play the sexism card because the only reason I haven't started a Ted Cruz thread is that we all know he's an asshole and the board would crash if a thread went to 5000 pages in 24 hours. This shining light of the GOP, however, has only been in office for a few weeks and has already backed insurrection and promoted QAnon theories. Now it turns out she stalked a mass shooting survivor because fuck it, kids suffering PTSD is a small price to pay for the 2nd Amendment right to wave a gun about like you're someone worth paying attention to, yep? Oh, and she's been caught liking social media posts about killing democrats! Absolutely the sort of person our resident GOPpers should denounce, surely?

I was curious about her stalking the Parkland victim. Hadn't seen the video although you quoted the news article without the accompanying link. Thanks.
Serious question for my American friends... Why can't these elected officials be charged? They fucking well should be. (Or maybe I'm jumping the gun and there's an actual investigation taking place...)
Charged with what precisely? I assume they are looking into her participation with the terrorist attacks on the capitol. Aside from that I don't think making stupid statements and talking trash on social media is a crime unless you can be shown to have acted on it in some way. Think about it, if they did make what she said illegal they would be asking for your arrest and extradition to the US. There is nothing I can see that is specifically stopping the authorities to arrest her aside from needing to have a specific charge and evidence she did it to be used against her with a jury. Yes, we probably have 27 8x10 tweets with circles and paragraphs on the back of each one, but what charge is going to be used against her?
Congress shouldn't let them play in their reindeer games though. Censure their asses and put them on the back bench.
You measn the same congress that cannot convict trump on his 2 impeachments? You are wondering why that congress cannot do anything? That list of clusterfuck is too tldr even for me.
You don't need to be Deanna Troi to know the GOP aren't going to vote for impeachment. Hell, even if you were Dr. Toby Russell, you couldn't replicate enough spines for that to happen.
Come on, do you really think someone has to be psychic, at this stage, to see the handwriting on the wall? Something like 90% of the Republicans in the senate are lining up behind Trump, to make sure nothing happens to him, because they have realized that he still has a lot of clout in the party and their political careers are more important to them than honesty. It is a foregone conclusion he won't be convicted, even though it is so blatantly obvious that he should be. Impeachment is nothing more than a partisan game at this point.
I dunno. As of this morning, McConnell was waffling. Have to remove the diseased organ for the health of the Party and all that. Has anyone mentioned the planes flying over Mar-a-Lago with banners calling him a loser and "worst president ever"?
I saw the plane, and I live here. The plane probably costs less than the billboard on the way from West Palm airport and Mar-A Lago which changes every month with a new insult to donnie little hands. There are still a ton of donnie supporters around here. One plane with a banner is not evidence congress will convict. It is not even a sign of change. Trump's neighbors have not wanted him living at his resort since he purchased it long before his presidency. Not to mention his fuckpillow and Jarad are not wanted by many either, but that does not mean they will be denied ownership in the community up in Jupiter. There are plenty of people around who still love him. 4 But you keep relying on congress and unity to fix problems. You do drink quite a bit of kool aid.
