Sjtill - what I mean is that some Dems are starting to open their eyes and see the writing on the wall

Most want Trump to fail which means that they’re betting it gets worse and not better.

My gut tells me that this crapshow will send sooner than later and it so t be due to Dems.

Hope you’re right, Greg.
If things open up in TX etc. and there’s no big rebound of infections, then that will move things along faster than anything else.
If not, though, we won’t be out of the woods—and there will be a lot of anxiety—for much longer.

It seems to me the repeated expression of personal anxiety spreads like potato blight for no good reason. The failings of the hypothetical imperative of Kant/Hegel era seems oddly misplaced in our age of Reason demanding actual fact & evidence before reacting in the 'as if' mode.

We know what to expect from the minions of the DNC/GDC club. Personal anxiety over the threat they will continue in such, serves to weaken. It's a fear of the unknown. I reject such apprehension and embrace the Real Resistance....to THEM.

To give the dems credit as grand conspirators isn't warranted when the past is littered with the bungled results of their efforts.

Maybe they're as arrogant and incompetent as they seem. Biden, Shummer and Pelosi are their standard bearers.

Donald Trump is mine.

Kentucky Representative Thomas Massie Touches the Third Rail – Reveals DC’s Biggest Secret…
Posted on April 28, 2020 by sundance

With congress saying they will not be returning to work next week, it appears Kentucky representative Thomas Massie has decided to use the opportunity to expose Washington DC’s biggest secret. Something 99% of American voters do not understand:



Oh dear, he’s telling secrets. You see, congress doesn’t actually write legislation. The last item of legislation written by congress was sometime around the mid 1990’s. Modern legislation is sub-contracted to K-Street. Lobbyists write the laws; congress sells the laws; lobbyists then pay congress commissions for passing their laws. That’s the modern legislative business in DC.

CTH often describes the background DC motives with the phrase: “There are Trillions at Stake.” The process of creating legislation is behind that phrase. DC politics is not quite based on the ideas that frame most voter’s reference points.

With people taking notice of DC politics for the first time; and with people not as familiar with the purpose of DC politics; perhaps it is valuable to provide clarity.

Most people think when they vote for a federal politician -a House or Senate representative- they are voting for a person who will go to Washington DC and write or enact legislation. This is the old-fashioned “schoolhouse rock” perspective based on decades past. There is not a single person in congress writing legislation or laws.

In modern politics not a single member of the House of Representatives or Senator writes a law, or puts pen to paper to write out a legislative construct. This simply doesn’t happen.

Over the past several decades a system of constructing legislation has taken over Washington DC that more resembles a business operation than a legislative body.

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

Is there maybe an update to this? This particular story was by the Associated Press & released on Jan. 30, 2018.

Go jump off a cliff, you skanky whore. No one cares about your stupid lying bullshit, tramp.

This is perfecty typical of females who will do anything for attention, including admitting that previous claims they made were false. When the lies stop working and the attention fades, admit to the lies, and voila, the attention is back. Simple-minded bitch. That shit is as old as poontang itself.

Ref: Thomas Massie.

He’s an idiot. Full Disclosure: I am a constituent of his as I live in KY-4.

He likes to tilt at windmills, but he picked the wrong windmill when he tried to holdup the Coronavirus Relief Bill for his personal attention-getting scheme. Folks are scared and pissed-off enough with mis-information, and didn’t appreciate his grandstanding. He’s the one who got called-out by Trump over this.

He and his primary opponent are now engaged in a TV commercial campaign battle to say who is a better Trump Supporter. He will be defeated in the re-scheduled June Primary. KY-4 is heavily Republican/Conservative, so don’t worry about it flipping to the Dems.

Fake Libertarian Justin Amash Says He's Going to Run as a Libertarian for President...

President responds...
Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump :

"No, I think Amash would make a wonderful candidate, especially since he is way behind in his district and has no chance of maintaining his Congressional seat. He almost always votes for the Do Nothing Dems anyway. I like him even more than Jill Stein!"

I live in his district.

He put on his clown shoes, went off the rails, into a fiery canyon, tossing dicks around on his way down. He was perfectly right-Republican/Libertarian and everything that was great about peeling back the bullshit that surrounded FISA and Government pork. And then POTUS started de-coupling from China and his precious Michigan Industrial Tools / TEKTON started feeling the impact and he lost his shit.

That wasn't even the body blow that pissed everyone off. That little bag of dick tips decided to utilize the fruit of the FISA fuckoff and then vote for impeachment. Fuck that guy in the ear, every day, 7 days a week, for 80 weeks a year. I spent a shit ton of hours pounding the pavement for the guy and had "Rebel Alliance" morale patches made for all of us on "Team Liberty" in the Amash office.

Fuck him.

(It's shitty too, because my wife and I are awesome friends with tons of his former staff members and so many of them are swooning over him. They're completely delusional.)

This seems to be recycled news. Searching I found a number of articles listed as a couple of days old but are dated in January or March.
I did find a April 28 piece that stated:

“ The January 2018 article, which multiple outlets published, came from the Associated Press and contains the headline “Porn star Stormy Daniels now says Trump affair never happened.”

Multiple conservative users tweeted out the article on Tuesday, seeming to insinuate that the article was recently published. Some called for people to apologize to President Trump.”

Instead of asking Biden the media asks President Trump about the accusations against Biden.

from Fox Chad Pergram:

Colleague Mike Emanuel confirms Senate Intel Cmte will hold confirmation hrng for GOP TX Rep John Ratcliffe to be DNI on May 5

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx


John Ratcliffe as DNI. DEMs will fight this w all they've got

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

https://www.foxnews.com/politi...minee-john-ratcliffe

The Senate Intelligence Committee is planning to hold a confirmation hearing next week for President Trump’s nominee for Director of National Intelligence (DNI), Rep. John Ratcliffe, Fox News has learned.

Sources told Fox News Thursday that the committee is slated to hold a hearing on Tuesday at 9:30 a.m. ET for the confirmation of Ratcliffe, R-Texas, as DNI.

The sources told Fox News that there are still logistics being discussed, specifically how members will practice social distancing amid the coronavirus pandemic, but key players are involved in ironing out the issue.

The president nominated Ratcliffe to serve as DNI in February, just months after the congressman abruptly withdrew his name for the post.

“I am pleased to announce the nomination of @RepRatcliffe (Congressman John Ratcliffe) to be Director of National Intelligence (DNI)," the president tweeted in February. "Would have completed process earlier, but John wanted to wait until after IG Report was finished. John is an outstanding man of great talent!”

Ratcliffe, a former federal prosecutor who had been a fierce defender of Trump and his agenda, was one of the most vocal critics of former Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election.

Ratcliffe will likely face a fierce confirmation battle as Democrats have argued he was selected due to his loyalty rather than experience.

That wouldn't be totally unexpected as Hogan Gidley (Deputy Press Secretary) confirmed on Fox 21 Feb that the WH would be scrutinizing Fed agencies to ensure employees are sufficiently loyal to Trump.

Nothing wrong with that at all.

I have watched Ratcliffe for several years now. He has always fought for transparency and getting the truth to the public.

I don't recall a single time he lied to us.

So does anyone equate "telling the public the truth" with "blind loyalty to Donald Trump" ?

In contrast to Ratcliffe, we have seen multiple top leaders of the CIA, FBI, and DoJ lie repeatedly and hide their attempts to overturn the 2016 election.

Or maybe compare Ratcliffe to lying POS Adam Schiff.
