Its Russian money and misinformation support. Nothing else would rise to the level of corruption that we have seen. The whole Republican Party is infected with it. Super PACs full of dark money that giving talking points tied to campaign support.

I still believe Trump has some dirt on them he is holding over their heads. IMO, there isn’t much that could be worse than their cowardice since Jan 6 that places our Republic in serious peril - so whatever it is must be really embarrassing or really bad or both. Of course the cynic in me says they are just power hungry and that’s true but it still seems a stretch for me to believe they’d go this far unless there is something more he has on them.

Many of us have been clamoring for years to make lobbying and PACs illegal, yet despite seeing the worst they can yield, I've not heard a peep about addressing the root issue.

(Well, the real root issue is the greed and power-hunger that drives those who are willing to trade serving their country for cash, but my point is greed and power-hunger have been a part of humanity for all known history, so at least we can address the 'legal' access to the temptation.)

Utah Democrats try a coalition to remove a traitor from office.

Interesting. A Democrat probably has zero chance of winning in Utah so this is their best chance to unseat Lee.

If McMullin does win, then what? Does he caucus with the Republicans like Sanders and King from Maine do with the Democrats? If after the midterms there are 50 Republicans in the Senate plus him, does he make McConnel the majority leader?

morons.


On Jan. 17, 2021, she apparently texted Meadows about discussions among Republican House members on that very topic.

“In our private chat with only Members, several are saying the only way to save our Republic is for Trump to call for Marshall (sic) law,” she wrote. “I don’t know on those things. I just wanted you to tell him. They stole this election. We all know.”

I blame 2 democrats for refusing to end the filibuster for what is coming in future elections.

I would not be surprised to see Trump claim credit for not giving the green light to those militia nuts to take the violence to another level. They had all kinds of weaponry close by, and were itching to use it. as bad as Jan. 6th was, it had the potential to be much worse.

I hope the Dems in the House are up to making the public understand this when their hearings start in June.

My bet is that others had to intervene to stop him, but some will likely give him credit anyway.
