    Isn't that John Brown the abolitionist?

    Yes Should be John Brown

    On November 2, after a week-long trial and 45 minutes of deliberation, the Charles Town jury found Brown guilty on all three counts. He was sentenced to be hanged in public on December 2

    House is closed until next Tuesday. Republicans are in shambles and have to have a party-wide strategy to deal with their hostage takers in their house.

    We’ll see but I doubt it. The Republicans are quite a pickle. They grabbed onto the third rail and now it is a major source of power within their party. Theoretically they could expel a couple of these guys and send a message to get them in line too.

  5. Have your little fun-while it lasts- watching the Republicans painfully and chaotically dealing with internal problems that must be dealt with. Despite all the chaos, a speaker upgrade is a definite possible outcome.

    As discussed, your ilk has a sh#t show and trainwreck of mammoth proportions ahead in the near future as you try to sort out or live with your nomination ticket. Oh man, gonna be some hand-to-hand combat and/or panic over in Camp Commie before that is over. Y'all would do well to bite some bullets hard and cull the herd in advance yourself.

    Im just calling balls and strikes over here.

    My spidey sense is tingling a little over here for Matt Gaetz. I wouldn’t be surprised if some Madison Cawthorne type photos or the like show up in the next week.

    As a side note, the Russians and Chinese are having a good laugh and doubling down on their republican support.

    Two things:

    1) I was today years old when Kevin McCarthy decided becoming a lobbyist was going to be far more lucrative than being speaker

    2) Frank Luntz gets a new roommate. Who will it be?

  9. Hopefully if they are pictures of Gaetz with one of his girlfriends, she is not sitting on a pony.

    Just sayin.
