    Probably depends on who ends up Speaker, cause with such a narrow win, it's hard to imagine there won't be blood in the water around McCarthy.

    She starts insisting that McCarthy (or whoever ends up as Speaker) give her whatever juicy committee assignments she wants, by going full Karen and threatening that the base will be angry if she doesn't get whatever she demands.

    Fairly unlikely that McCarthy has the backbone to stand up to her. And anyone who successfully challenges him for the leadership is likely to be even worse.

    the problem with MTG is that unlike most Republicans, who cynically spout bullshit about socialism and communism as dishonest propaganda because they know a lot of the rubes react to it - she, apparently, actually believes it and now the rubes have an avatar in Congress with actual influence.

    The Repugs had someone like her coming.
    They keep creating Frankenstein Monster after Frankenstein Monster, and every fucking time, are like "no, I can control the monster this time! :polarslam2:" and they're wrong every fucking time. :shrug:
    Evangelicals, Tea Party, Trump, MAGA, Qanon.
    The monster busts loose and kills a little girl every time.
    And they think they GOOD at this!
    After all the failure, they still get to think they're brilliant.
    It's that horriffic kind of awe inspiring like a mushroom cloud.

    Righties really do use "communism" as a synonym for the devil.
    They don't even know WTF it means.
    "Corporate communism"?

    Midge is certainly an intelligent republican. Something else that is an oxymoron. things like @Bill Carson 's good argument, and @Uncle Albert 's bravery and manliness. @Jenee and good taste. me and brevity. Bill Carson being adult. @Lanzman not gargling chad's balls.

    There are so many of them

    Yeah, we aren't going to let Putin off the hook. If he wants peace he can get the fuck out of Ukraine. Putin doesn't want peace.

    If you can't figure that out, you are just another looney. And yes, the far right in the US is pro-Putin, considering all the amazing things he has done for them.

    Who the fuck is this chucklefuck and why is he too stupid to use Google?

    I literally just typed Ilhan Tigray (as I’m sure you Mr Informed is aware that’s where the conflict was/is/was? taking place) and got a page of results, including this long statement:

    https://omar.house.gov/media/press-releases/rep-ilhan-omar-statement-situation-ethiopia

    Multiple shorter statements.

    But don’t just believe me. Try it! Search yourself.

    And here is my rep, Adam Smith’s comments on the conflict. This is actually a tense issue in my neighborhood. Seattle and Minneapolis have the two largest Horn of Africa populations. This summer there were various Tigray, Amhara and Oromo mass gatherings/demonstrations/marches etc.

    https://adamsmith.house.gov/press-releases?ID=A6DF7F2A-7251-44FF-A90E-B3E4554DE6C7

    Now maybe my Google is broken but I’m not seeing a god damn thing when I search Greene Tigray.

    So once again/as always SHUT THE FUCK UP DONNY; YOU’RE OUT OF YOUR ELEMENT!

    Looks like a Jimmy door link from the thumbnail. Jimmy Door is the 2010 Andrew Dice Clay with less talent, but the same audience.

    The idea that Dems haven’t been following this conflict and that this Democratic Administration hasn’t been paying attention to this conflict is laughable and only possible if you are totally and completely fucking ignorant of the conflict.

    For those who have a hard time with words and complex issues Wikipedia has come through.

    I’m gonna post an image. Inside the image will be a lot of little icons. Who can can pick out the little icon that is different from all the others:

    Please put your answer behind spoilers so everyone gets a chance to guess.

    In case anyone is actually interested in the conflict Lawfare had a great rundown a couple weeks back:


    Earlier this month, officials from the government of Ethiopia and representatives from the Tigray People's Liberation Front agreed to halt the two-year conflict that has been rife with accusations of ethnic cleansing, sexual violence, and famine as a weapon of war. To discuss the current state of the conflict and the prospect of peace, Lawfare managing editor Tyler McBrien sat down with Alex de Waal, executive director of the World Peace Foundation and a research professor at Tufts University's Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy. A longtime expert on the Horn of Africa, de Waal co-edited the book, “Accountability for Mass Starvation: Testing the Limits of the Law,” which was published in August. They discussed the terms of the recent truce agreements, the irony of Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed's Nobel Peace Prize, and the options for accountability for forced starvation and other crimes committed by both sides.

    https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-lawfare-podcast/id498897343?i=1000587099977

    But since the folks are informed I’m sure it is too “MSM” for some and so they’ll just go right back to their uninformed, unable to Google chucklefucks….

    Many of us have told you many times that we will sometimes hope that you're debating in good faith and dig into something you have posted, only to inevitably realise that once again you are just trying to waste people's time by spamming waves of content you haven't even bothered to digest yourself.
