...a soul-revealing sea of subtle submissive micro expressions. He does not have the guts to stand up for America, or even for the authority of the US House of Representatives. Nor do any other of the weak-kneed republicans. They have all gone subby. Sad.

KGOP republican-style fascism lives IN these submissive wankers as they oppose and strive to overthrow American democracy, and kneel before their ignoble & compromised republican Draft-Dodger-in-Chief, Comrade Dirty Donny.

They listen closely to the senseless babble I speak. They look at me, curiously, and try, very hard, to makes sense of my gibberish. In their cases, of course, I know I’m making no sense, and they don’t really care. All in all, I could do a better job as President, and any of my dogs could be a better congressman. Still, my least my dogs have an excuse to look like that...

That's the same Ken McCarthy who told fellow ReTHUGs that Putin was paying the Con

A month before Donald Trump clinched the Republican nomination, one of his closest allies in Congress — House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy — made a politically explosive assertion in a private conversation on Capitol Hill with his fellow GOP leaders: that Trump could be the beneficiary of payments from Russian President Vladimir Putin.

“There’s two people I think Putin pays: Rohrabacher and Trump,” McCarthy (R-Calif.) said, according to a recording of the June 15, 2016, exchange, which was listened to and verified by The Washington Post. Rep. Dana Rohrabacher is a Californian Republican known in Congress as a fervent defender of Putin and Russia.

House Speaker Paul D. Ryan (R-Wis.) immediately interjected, stopping the conversation from further exploring McCarthy’s assertion, and swore the Republicans present to secrecy.

The purge will continue in CA, OR, WA, NY, NJ and New England.

This year’s tax bills will drive it home.
