well, the one good thing about the evil ego john cornyn from texas is that he strikes like a rattlesnake when he's crossed.
he' stated that the report should be released. for the first time ever, my bet is on cornyn- it will be released.
@Bix the Republican Party is the evil Harlem Globetrotters to the Democratic Party’s patsy Washington Generals. Discuss.
@Bix I will agree with Johnson on one thing. It will open Pandora's box and we will see how truly awful so many of our "leaders" are.
There is a strange dance they do in the legislature to box in the other party. Jeffries probably is trying to play his hand effectively. If the GOP doesn't release it now, it will come out during Senate confirmation hearings instead and get much more publicity.
@EileenKCarpenter that’s a fair take, but given the threat of recession appointment I say bloody up Gaetz and by association Trump on this move early on. @Bix
@Bix @EileenKCarpenter in the Trump crime family, that’s one way to become a made man.
This news has been out a long time, but only Democrats are hearing about it. They need to get it in front of Republicans in such a way that Gaetz won't recover. A released report won't do that, because people won't read it any more than they read the Mueller report.
@EileenKCarpenter @Bix the siloing of news.
@EileenKCarpenter @CanisPundit @Bix yeah, use television shows to bring it to the front. The Sunday morning political shows, etc
@JanetZumba_FalPals @CanisPundit @Bix
Apparently podcasts are more influential now
@EileenKCarpenter I believe that.
@EileenKCarpenter @Bix the key difference being sex. Sex, SEX! Sex scandals, the masses understand that and want salacious details to pass judgement on. Did I mention SEX being a key difference? 😁
@CanisPundit @Bix
But like I said, this is not new. It’s been out a couple years and he got re-elected anyway.
another thought on Jeffries comment... why should he side with any repugs at the moment. this fight is going to be real dirty- not just Gaetz, but all of the appointments.
Jeffries doesn't have to suck up to and while a bunch of R's will... trump's trying to beat them into submission so whatever he says they'll jump to make it happen
@Bix is it Hakeem Jeffries saying this?
@Bix Time to split up the Democratic Party. Create a Progressive Party.
@Bix They've been pretending to be on our side so they can compete for those juicy big donor, industry, and lobbying dollars.
We need actual progressives. This "centrist" stuff is lesser evilling us to death.
@Bix The right is beyond being bi-partisan. I'm so tired of them trying to maintain balance while the Republicans don't. Grow some fucking balls.
@SmirkingRaven @Bix
Or at least strap on a set.
@SmirkingRaven @Bix this isn't your 1950 politics folks....be professional be ruthless u can be both
@Bix Honestly I feel so betrayed by the democratic party. They've given up, I'm out of hope. We're stuck between pathetic wimps and the ultimate evil. We're fucked.
@Bix I hope it’s just a Pelosi adjacent ‘he hasn’t decided yet’—vs having given up, if that makes sense
