And now they’ve just made the anti-democracy extremist Speaker of the House.
The GOP Speaker and presumptive nominee for President are both anti-American insurrectionists who want to tear down our democracy and institute single party rule. And the oligarch-owned media will absolutely shut up about it and pretend it’s normal.
They’ve just made an anti-democratic Nationalist Christian extremist Speaker of the House - specificity is important.
I feel like the word “the” in your first sentence is misleading. He most certainly is AN anti-democracy extremist, but by no means THE anti-democracy extremist. The Republican caucus is lousy with them.
Sounds like it’s time to hit the oligarchs where it hurts: them personally.
The face, specifically

Republicans would veto a bill that banned abortion nationwide and provided free guns for the babies if it raised taxes on the rich by 0.1%.
Free guns for the babies?? Get outta here with that commie shit, those lazy babies have to pull themselves by their bootstraps and get a second job to pay for their gun loans

“I’m hungry, let’s go get something to eat”
“Cool how about tacos?”
“No, I don’t want tacos.”
“Okay, how about Thai food?”
“No, I don’t want Thai food.”
“Well what do you want to eat?”
“I don’t know, you pick something.”
Except policy.
Picks something…
“This sucks! (upends table and food) I’m in charge of picking where we eat, now…it’s your fault we’re going hungry!”
Lather, rinse, repeat.

Which is pretty weird considering many of them aren’t wealthy and only stand to lose from such policies.

Truth and facts are the enemy of the Republican Party.

Yeah sure.
Conservatives elect speaker who didn’t believe in dinosaurs or climate change, wants to make homosexuality illegal, voted to overturn the election and did everything in his power to thwart it, reports aren’t allowed to question it, but it’s those opposed who are “socialist scum”.
Them’s Nazi words, quite literally.
Throwing around the term Nazi doesn’t add cred to your argument
In this case it makes their point quite clear and is a relevant comparison when assessing the points put forward.
Acting like a nazi doesn’t add to your point either, actually it reinforces the other fellas arguement.
Imagine believing it’s the leftists who have the money and means to place bots on obscure internet forums 😂
It’s all part of the leftist plot to give everyone affordable healthcare.
Imagine thinking leftists aren’t the rich elite 🤣
we can safely assume the above comment really got under your thin, translucent skin.
"Mike Johnson is Jim Jordan in a sports coat.”

100% now they will hear it more and non-stop
They will hear this question whenever they present yet another insurrectionist speaker candidate. At least if the press in the US still has guts.
Fascists are emboldened.
They’ve been emboldened since 2016
indeed
American Fascist Party. Yeah, I’m going to say it over and over.
No one can fault you for saying the truth.
There’s a handful of things I find myself having to repeat and repeat, to the point that it’s starting to annoy me. I’m sure someone is going to give me shit about it real soon.
Look. Soon enough these assholes will stop beating around the bush and make their move. It will be undeniable but they will skip right past shame and whole heartily accept the fact that yes, they actually are aligned with Nazis. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. During Bush they said they weren’t racist. During Trump they said they weren’t fascist. Next they will say they won’t attempt mass genocide.
By then it will be too late.
You’re not wrong. Fascism isn’t coming; it’s here. And every time some fascist bullshit happens without consequences, they get stronger and democracy gets weaker. Fascist leaders have seen no consequences. The American Fascist Party (I said it again) has to be called that, because not only are they refusing to eject fascists from their ranks, they are promoting them to positions of real power.
It’s the party that worships the constitution ordering the Press on what they can and cannot do
To be fair, they’re allowed to tell the press anything. I’m totally OK with that. I’m more upset by the fact they worship and swore to uphold the constitution and then tried to overthrow democracy, and now don’t want to talk about it. Either it was a good thing and be proud of it and own it (it wasn’t, but in their opinion…), or it was bad and a mistake and you should speak out about it and warn others not to make the same mistake.
It was a good thing, or rather, it will be a good thing much like 1924 Putsch. It was a rough draft, and it didn’t take off but that doesn’t mean it wasn’t a good thing.
- The Republican Party
There you go thinking Republicans care about anything again. This is the party of power, nothing more. If they ever tell you they believe in something it’s because you believing they believe in that something will get them more power.
Oh I know they don’t, I just like leaving bread crumbs for people who haven’t figured it out. People have to come to the conclusions on their own, just telling them the answer will not get a positive result. This is why people who debunk shit for a living actually cause more people to believe in New Age nonsense.
Don’t confuse “likes to selectively cite it in bad faith arguments” with “worships”.
I do not wish harm upon some members of congress, but I will take pleasure in reading their obituaries.

Well, I genuinely don’t think Virginia Foxx should be guillotined for being a rancid, evil, racist, human prune.
So far as I am aware, she has not committed treason or heinous acts of murder. She should absolutely be ejected from Congress for her conduct, violations of her oaths through her corruption (and possibly jailed for that), and barred from any government position under Section 3 of the 14th Amendment. When she ultimately passes, it will most certainly be to the betterment of our species.
But even through all that, I do not wish violence upon her.
Um, actually… Rule 6. Removed.
Wait, her name is Virginia Foxx? Bold to keep her stripper name when she transitioned into politics. I guess she was invested in the brand.
I’ll give him 7days as speaker. Any bets?
Will be outlast the lettuce?
The next budget is due in a month, so there’s a good chance he’ll be gone after that.
So the lettuce has a nonzero chance of outlining his office.
While this would be hilariously humoring for most people I, opposing this fundamentalist scumbag want the debt ceiling deadline to occur without damaging the credit worthiness of the US government. So fuck them reps.
This is Murica, use a hamberder. Just homemade, cause those fast food ones never grow mold.
I saw some of the base already worried he’s not as racist as they had hoped. Also, there is some butthurt about him supporting Ukraine. So how long until he gets accused of being a “RINO”?

Damn. This final season of Handmaid’s Tale getting a sneaker release as an Alternate Reality “Game” (or whatever this is) was sure an interesting production choice.
Under his Eye … I guess?
Fuck you, Virginia Foxx. Go join Diane Feinstein.
Who is this geriatric cunt that yelled at that reporter to shut up lmao. In what world is that a reasonable response of she’s coming from politics.
