Kirk Gallaway Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 (edited) Geez, Cancel culture everywhere! The Republicans are cancelling everyone who won't move in lockstep to Trump. What's this Whoopee Jewish slur? I don't watch much TV. Isn't she one of "The "Goldbergs". heh heh heh But seriously, now the left is going after Rogan for all the times over 12 years he said the "n" word?! I have heard one statement I thought was overtly racist about walking into the "Planet of the Apes", when he walked into a room of black people. He issued an apology. He's been contrite about all this stuff. Some of these 70's early episodes of SNL, would be run out of town now. Do we end that too, 50 years later? If they use that and eventually he loses his job, it's going to be a big backfire on the left. Really what I think is happening is that the Democrats are playing to their PC "millenials" , who can't distinguish from earlier history and want to redress every public statement anyone ever made. When is this ever going to stop? Edited February 5, 2022 by Kirk Gallaway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And, there you have it. Steve Thomas The Republican Party believes that the definition of "political discourse" includes smearing feces on the walls of the U. S. Capitol.

Benjamin Cole Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 As I have said many times, I am not a fan of either major political party in the US. From my perspective, both parties are engaging in a race to the bottom. More than ever, I contend if you choose to become partisan, you are also choosing to become a useful idiot. Unless, of course, you are on one of gravy trains associated with the party spoils system. In which case, perhaps your cunning is to be admired, if not your ethics.

The GOP will not win back the House or the Senate in November 2022. Hubris and karma are very interrelated. 2. An indictment will be handed down this Monday, Feb. 7th, 2022. Don't know who, but we'll all recognize the name. Matt A- There are "prediction markets," I think mostly located in the UK, in which you can wager your convictions. You will make a handsome return betting on Democrats to retain control of the House and Senate, if that prediction bears fruit. I wouldn't mortgage the house, but if you feel quite certain, then maybe wager your retirement nestegg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Thomas Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 RNC lashed out because Jan. 6 probe is ‘getting very close’ to fake Trump electors: Former GOP lawmaker by John Wright https://www.rawstory.com/donald-trump-2656571428/ "I think part of the reason why the RNC reacted so foolishly against Cheney and Kinzinger, is because the Jan. 6 committee issued 14 subpoenas to some of these fake electors," he said. "And I suspect they're getting very close to some members of the Republican National Committee, and they're a little nervous about that, and they ought to be, frankly. ... The RNC is really anxious. Some of those members I think have to be concerned about those subpoenas, so that's what this is about more than anything else." Now it makes sense.

Steve Thomas Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 RESOLUTION REGARDING THE REPUBLICAN PARTY PLATFORM 2020 WHEREAS, All platforms are snapshots of the historical contexts in which they are born, and parties abide by their policy priorities, rather than their political rhetoric; WHEREAS, The RNC, had the Platform Committee been able to convene in 2020, would have undoubtedly unanimously agreed to reassert the Party’s strong support for President Donald Trump and his Administration; RESOLVED, That the Republican Party has and will continue to enthusiastically support the President’s America-first agenda; RESOLVED, That the 2020 Republican National Convention will adjourn without adopting a new platform until the 2024 Republican National Convention RESOLUTION TO FORMALLY CENSURE LIZ CHENEY AND ADAM KINZINGER AND TO NO LONGER SUPPORT THEM AS MEMBERS OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY 02/04/2022 WHEREAS, Winning back the majority in Congress, including the United States House of Representatives, in 2022 must be the primary goal of the House Republican Conference (“Conference”) and requires all Republicans working together to accomplish the same; WHEREAS, Representatives Cheney and Kinzinger are participating in a Democrat-led persecution of ordinary citizens engaged in legitimate political discourse, ,… RESOLVED, That the Republican National Committee hereby formally censures Representatives Liz Cheney of Wyoming and Adam Kinzinger of Illinois and shall immediately cease any and all support of them as members of the Republican Party... And, so there you have it. 1. The Republican Party has no Platform other than to support Donald Trump 2. The primary mission of the Republican Party is to regain power at all costs 3. The Republican Party endorses political violence as a legitimate means to attain that power Steve Thomas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Douglas Caddy Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 From the Washington Post today under a headline about Trump removing boxes of records from the White House President Donald Trump improperly removed multiple boxes from the White House that were retrieved by the National Archives and Records Administration last month from his Mar-a-Lago residence because they contained documents and other items that should have been turned over to the agency, according to three people familiar with the visit. The recovery of the boxes from Trump’s Florida resort raises new concerns about his adherence to the Presidential Records Act, which requires the preservation of memos, letters, notes, emails, faxes and other written communications related to a president’s official duties.
