The MSM, at last, has discovered that the Republican Party is devolving into full-on chaos. The various factions have always hated each other, but were bound up in common causes against those they hated even more, until White Supremacy and the rest lost its majority position in US society.
- Now commentators feel empowered not only to call out individual lies, but to call spades damned BS shovels in quantity.
- Now Mitch McConnell has denounced the RNC for censuring two House members and calling the 1/6 insurrection “legitimate political discourse”, but McCarthy refuses to say either way.
- Now there are reports of TFG becoming even more unhinged than the last time he set a personal worst.
The Daily Item: Trump is GOP's biggest foe heading into midterms
- Now the Devin Nunes-managed Truth Social has been delayed yet again, from Nov. to Feb. to March to late March—maybe, if at all, ever. The predictable pointing and laughing is well under way. Also a genuine SEC investigation.
- Now a multitude of TFG staffers has testified to the 1/6 special Committee, and provided documents.
- Now, Oh, Lordy, there are tapes.
- Now the DoJ has moved against domestic terrorism, including election terrorism, and the terrorists are duly terrified.
- Now subpoenas are coming by the dozens, especially for Rs who signed their names as bogus electors for Him-Whom-They-Already-Knew-Was-TFG. Yesterday it was Peter Navarro’s turn. He claims that he can’t testify without TFG’s permission. No, Petey, that’s not how subpoenas work.
- Now we have beaten back gerrymandering in this cycle, and may have come out ahead in the House.
- Now, as hpg and others constantly remind us, our prospects in the Senate are excellent. (Remember, repetition is good. I repeat, repetition is good.)
- Now we are beating back voter suppression in the courts. It turns out, also, that it doesn’t work against massive GOTV. Instead of making prospective voters feel helpless, it fires them up to crawl over molten volcanic glass to the polls.
- Now the big lie is backfiring on the Rs, convincing many that the game is so rigged that they shouldn’t bother voting.
- Now Marc Elias, the ACLU, the NAACP LDF, and others are on top of the states asserting a right to overturn Presidential elections and name their own electors, among many other shenanigans.
Kansas will be sued.
That’s the tweet.
Elias promises much more Real Soon Now.
- Now Dems are getting our messages out.
- Now Rs have no platform and no messages but fear and hatred.
