GOP only house meeting and MTG got a standing ovation from half the members.

This party split may actually happen.

Also, I read that the Boebert received a GED in 2020. I mean, more power to those doing positive things during the down time of quarantine, but that's a congress woman now. We have gone from intelligent liars manipulating idiots for power the the idiots believing the lies so strongly, and for long enough, that they have decided to, and successfully, run for congress themselves. We now are in the Culture Warrior stage of Congress, rather than the smoky back room stage. Is that a step up or down?

The new Q contingent is interesting.

They are either going to force GOP normies to comply to Q or they are going to force a split.

JFC, this is really something. My party is tazing their own balls to death over a ridiculous internet rumor/game.

Greene is obviously a huge sack of crap but as always the dems can't get out of their own way. They have no business dictating that she can't sit on committees because she's a horrible human. I don't know why they just can't let the pubs deal with it and any repercussions that comes from whatever they decide.

It is something to observe how spectacularly both parties can fail when given the floor. It’s like they exist solely to oppose each other (spoiler: they basically do).

Do they need a 2/3 vote or simple majority? Regardless, I think it's probably politically expedient to force house republicans to go on the record stating they believe a woman who believes Jewish space lasers caused the California wildfires and also that the Sandy Hook shooting was a false flag with paid actors should be on the education committee.

Look at Mitt proposing legislation that can win bipartisan support and help people.

Ironically, I also woke up laughing this morning at how smug I am that *voting machine companies* are dealing justice more swiftly and more thoroughly than the entire GOP at this point. https://t.co/oH0wg8D6V2

Imagine even hinting at defending Eric Swalwell aka Mini Schiff.

ProgFascist Nation has a kindred spirit in Liz 'forever wars' Cheney.

The two entities are indistinguishable at this point.

Anyone else have fond memories of watching Mona Charen on CNN's The Firing Line back in the 90's?

Quote

In opposing Trump and working for a Biden victory, many of us in the Never Trump camp have been happy to make alliances with progressives and others who are committed to decency and the rule of law.

Where we go from here is less clear. Some will become Democrats. Others will work to reform the Republican party. Still others will consider forming a new party.

America desperately needs a sane center right party. The matter is urgent because as things now stand, every general election between Democrats and the current Republican party will be a contest between democracy and its enemies.
