Politics-What's on your mind?

[JDeere]

All of this nonsense is done by rich, religious, immoral, individuals of all ethnic backgrounds, to gain more votes!

There is no longer separation of church and state, like it's supposed to be!

If you aren't rich, religious, immoral and are common man, it's obvious now that no parties in the government give 2 craps about any of us! They are doing this for their own egos and for mid terms.

I am so dismayed with this country and government!

Matt Gaetz is a model avatar for the Republican Party’s manic culture war. As a far-right reactionary currently under investigation for sex crimes, he checks several boxes of hypocrisy so often seen among the GOP’s moral crusaders. It makes sense, then, that he delivered the best encapsulation of the socially conservative right’s response to pro-choice protests now sweeping the country.

“How many of the women rallying against overturning Roe are over-educated, under-loved millennials who sadly return from protests to a lonely microwave dinner with their cats, and no bumble matches?” Gaetz asked on Twitter on Wednesday morning.

Shaking my head!

“In response to the nationwide protests, this morning Gaetz tweeted, ‘How many of the women rallying against overturning Roe are over-educated, under-loved millennials who sadly return from protests to a lonely microwave dinner with their cats, and no bumble matches?'”

After reading Gaetz’s gross take, Colbert quipped, “Now folks, if that statement sounds insane, remember, for Matt Gaetz ‘over-educated’ is any woman who’s already graduated high school.”

Gaetz is currently under federal investigation for sex crimes, specifically whether he had sex with a 17-year-old girl for money in 2017 and whether he paid to transport women across state lines for sex. He is also being investigated for obstructing justice, per NBC News.

Can I just say anyone who would vote for this lying sack of shit should have their head examined!

We've got to get something better on him and I'm sure there's a better scoop. Personally, I don't believe a young woman of 17 years is a child. I am not the only woman who started hooking at 15, started working the streets to get out of an emotionally abusive household. Worked until a little over 16 and was able to move to Chicago where I continued as it was the easiest way to make good money. Waiting tables was tedious and not nearly as lucrative.

No regrets. In fact, am active in a group trying to lower the age of consent to 16. Young women of 16 should have all the rights and responsibilities that pertain to adult women. I get disturbed when they call these sex-workers children.

Yes, Matt Gaetz is a Right-wing sleaze bag. There's got to be something else to pin on him...his closet has to be full of skeletons.

After that, I became very cynical (much more than usual) thinking about who can be believed. Came up with no one, and now I distrust my doctor and even my Partner. I'm sure it will blow over...eventually. I grew up a gullible Hoosier where truth-telling is a societal norm and lies are the exception to the rule!

Scotty, beam me back to that time and place.

Kellyanne Conway slams 'shrewd and calculating' Jared Kushner in memoir: 'There was no subject he considered beyond his expertise'.She called Kushner "shrewd and calculating" and criticized his sprawling portfolio.

I doubt I'll be buying her book Here's the Deal: A Memoir

IMHO the one thing that stands out in all these individuals book's written AFTER they left Trump's service, is that they were experts at lying and spin control!

[cathexis]

The book doesn't appeal to me either.

The fascists published after being complicit in Tru*p's regime reminds me of Albert Speer's (Hitler's architect) publishing a multitude of works after being convicted for Crimes against Humanity at Nurenberg. He was sentenced to twenty years after the Holocaust.

Four years ago this summer, the Republican senator from Maine announced that President Trump’s latest Supreme Court nominee, Brett Kavanaugh, had assured her that he believed the recognition of abortion rights in the Supreme Court’s 1973 Roe v Wade decision was “settled law.”

The senator’s assurance that Kavanaugh would never overturn Roe was completely shredded on Friday by the justice’s own argument for doing just that.

Following up on what Allahpundit wrote earlier, it’s easy to lose sight of what’s happening up in Maine. But plenty of Mainers are clearly hopping mad about the overturning of Roe v Wade and they’re not venting their anger at the Supreme Court, or at least not all of their anger. They are launching broadsides against Senator Susan Collins (who, curiously enough, is not an opponent of abortion). They are blaming her for putting Brett Kavanaugh and Neil Gorsuch on the bench, enabling the final decision in Dobbs. Some are demanding an apology while others are calling for her resignation.
