I'm glad for the work that she's doing on the 1/6 committee, but she should not be revered by Dems. She continually votes right alongside her scumbag party pals, and is still part of the problem.
She's proof that with Trump, the popularity was not with his policy it was his personality. I know a lot of people here commented how much they hated his tweeting and his brazen attitude, but they liked his policy and were able to ignore his personality to get that policy they liked. Well, you're in the minority with the GOP. The love that sh*t. Policy didn't matter when it came to Liz Cheney.
:thumb:

Been my beef with the guy's persona since the beginning. The appeal is being an dadhole and getting away with it. Policy happens on the perimeter.

The threats and harassment directed to Magistrate Judge Bruce Reinhart are every bit as wrong and despicable as the recent threats and harassment directed to (and still being directed to) multiple SCOTUS justices, and the "Ruth Sent Us" folks screaming outside the houses of Kavanaugh, Barrett, etc. are every bit the dadholes as the people posting Reinhart's home address and harassing his synagogue.

"93%" is trending on Twitter this morning, apparently because that's how much she voted alongside her fellow scumbags in the GOP.

A fool and his money

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics ... r-AA10Md2Q
The cash bonanza also provides a concrete sign that Trump is reaping some political benefits from the revelation that he is under investigation by the Justice Department for potential violations of laws including the Espionage Act. Trump and his supporters have repeatedly boasted in emails, social media posts and right-wing media articles that the search warrant would backfire on President Biden and rally Republicans around Trump.

Source of the post Trump and his supporters have repeatedly boasted in emails, social media posts and right-wing media articles that the search warrant would backfire on President Biden and rally Republicans around Trump.
This is just stupid. These clowns never stopped rallying around pissbaby, so this is not some new revelation. What are they going to do, vote for him twice?

Shocked to see the Bible on the list, but I do expect an uproar for them to bring it back. Anyway, banning books... yikes. Yet the Dems are fascist socialist marxists.

What kid is going through the library picking out the bible to read? One hour a week at church is like going to the dentist every week for kids.

Allen Weisselberg, a Top Trump Executive, Pleads Guilty in Tax Scheme
Mr. Weisselberg has refused to cooperate in the Manhattan district attorney’s broader investigation into Donald J. Trump and his family business.

One of Donald J. Trump’s most trusted executives pleaded guilty on Thursday to conspiring with Mr. Trump’s company to carry out a long-running tax scheme, an admission that painted a damning picture of the former president’s family business but did not advance a broader investigation into the man himself.

As part of the plea deal with the Manhattan district attorney’s office, the executive, Allen H. Weisselberg, is required to testify at the company’s trial if prosecutors choose to call on him, and to admit his role in conspiring with Mr. Trump’s company to carry out the tax scheme. That testimony could tilt the scales against the company, the Trump Organization, as it prepares for an October trial related to the same accusations.

“Yes, your honor,” Mr. Weisselberg said again and again in response to detailed questions from the judge, Juan Merchan, who asked whether he and the Trump Organization committed the criminal conduct underlying each of the 15 counts.

Under the terms of the plea deal, if Mr. Weisselberg testifies truthfully at the upcoming trial, he will receive a five-month sentence. Mr. Weisselberg, who was facing up to 15 years in prison, must also pay nearly $2 million in taxes, penalties and interest after accepting lavish tax-free perks including leased Mercedes-Benzes, an apartment on Manhattan’s Upper West Side and private school tuition for his grandchildren.

The plea deal does not require Mr. Weisselberg to cooperate with the district attorney’s broader criminal investigation of Mr. Trump, and his admissions will not implicate the former president. His willingness to accept jail time rather than turn on Mr. Trump underscores the extent of his loyalty to a family he has served for nearly a half-century, and it helped stymie the larger effort to indict Mr. Trump.
