    Maybe he's a double-agent working for the other side. ;-)

    Trump isn't even pro-America so he's always been a double-agent.

    P.S. That side seems to struggle with word definitions quite a bit. Their hero is functionally illiterate so that's not surprising; just an explanation.

    In Mulvaney's world, there's only 2 sides.... and he's said and done enough to show he's no longer on the T**** side, and that's all we can ask of the morally deficient....

    We could band together to legally help them secede so they can be in their own little p*ssed off worlds with one another instead of spreading that toxicity to the rest of us that know how to play well with one another and prefer to get things accomplished.

    He's most definitely morally deficient with this current reborn CNN "analysis" charade.

    Other than a handful of states, there are still too many rational people out there to give up territory.... I'd be glad to set up two non-connected FSA territories (Fascist States of America) - A Northwest (Utah Idaho-Wyoming and the Dakotas) and a deep South (Louisiana, Tenn, Miss, and Alab)...

    Would those 9 states be enough?

    I know CNN cannot be 100% composed of good faith commentators (see R. Santorum), but CNN hiring Mick Mulvaney is like CNN hiring Mick Mulvaney..... ohhh crap... I can't even find a good comparison....

    So glad I don't watch much CNN, although my wife insists on it for hearing days (Pre and Post analysis)...

    Does that eradicate the ones just hell bent on irrational, unmitigated hatred?

    If so, yes.

    If not, we need to rework that plan.

    No, since that's pretty much the entire "party", but I'm not going to willingly give up states where normalcy still has a fair chance (NC, OH, Iowa) ...

    I'd hope the die-hard wackos would migrate to their new motherlands... where gun carrying in public is mandatory (after age 6) and books are only used to prop gun lockers and school doors open

    A new Harvard study reveals the primary motivation of Jan. 6 rioters: Trump

    The study, which was shared with NBC News ahead of its publication, logged and analyzed the motives of 417 Capitol rioters, all of whom have been charged in relation to Jan. 6.

    The report adds to evidence from thousands of court documents in the more than 840 cases brought forward so far that many of those who stormed the U.S. Capitol and committed violent acts were motivated by their support for Trump and their belief in lies about the 2020 election.

    https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/po...v0m18ltYwazdlJWjNx7akzLhM4zy4DX4Be1s9ACEBAAA=

    Wonder if "no one is above the law" is actually true.....

    Senators announce bipartisan bills to stop future candidates from trying to steal an election

    After months of negotiating, a group of senators announced two bills Wednesday designed to prevent future coup attempts in the wake of former President Donald Trump and his allies’ efforts to overturn the 2020 election.

    The bills seek to clarify the role of Congress and the vice president in counting Electoral College votes and to prevent fake slates of electors from interfering in the process.

    The fact that they had to do this ,is evidence of how fragile this democracy has become./ How vulnerable it is to political manipulation by psychopathy. It also shows how a population can be manipulated by a psychopath............into a cult like mentality.

    the one thing that this investigation has not deal t with in depth.......is Trump's mental state. at the very least it is NOT NORMAL to deny reality about a loss. There is something very dysfunctional , when a person who is unable to gracefully accept a loss, without creating a lie and maintaining it. asif it were fact. That kind of person is either seriously delusional ( psychotic) or a psychopathic ,pathological serial liar.

    Looking forward to tomorrow.'s hearing...

    It's the perfect reality show to distract the general population from what's really important. Oldest trick in the book.

    Investigating one of the biggest threats to democracy is as critically important as it it can get. Yes......it seems like the whole plane is in crisis............the list of challenges facing everyone now is almost overwhelming. This beautiful planet is in crisis too.........and cannot support the number of people that inhabit it. That crazy invasion of Ukraine has affected things world wide. As had the Pademic...............We are just beginning to see the consequences of climate charge.

    So if we don't hold people to account.........we are heading for total chaos.

    Exactly. The policies are so bad they can only point fingers at squirrels and other distractions.

    Sure thing there sparky. Shiny object syndrome. How many of these drama's ended the way you wanted them to? Has Clinton been arrested? Will Trump be arrested for not paying taxes? Was Epstein murdered or not? Did Prince Andrew really have sex with underage girls? Will he be punished by the Queen? Were Harry and Markle racially abused by the Royal family? Did Russia meddle in the elections? What should we do about it? How about tighten up internet security, double authentication, maybe even introduce finger and retinal scans to access (microsofts solution). Is Putin suffering from some neurological disease? Will he invade Europe? Should we eat less meat to save the planet? LOL. That one makes me chuckle the most.

    What do you think? You seem to have your finger on the pulse.

    Keep your eyes glued to these reality shows. You'll come out a better and more healthier person from it.

    And they're far too easy to divide and conquer.

    It was engineered. Damn. Figure it out already.

    That's the threat to democracy. The blinkers so many of you have on.

    All engineered crises, and the fear is inhibiting you from thinking clearly.

    The expected alarmist reaction.

    So what's the solution? Wait for it....

    Final Episode of 1/6 Hearings for the Summer...

    - 8PM ET
    - No Bennie tonight (COVID) so I assume Liz takes the Gavel.... Without 2 opening statements, that should move things along
    - Kinzinger and Luria are the primary questioners (both veterans)
    - 2 live RINO witnesses
    Matthew Pottinger, former deputy national security adviser
    Sarah Matthews, a former press aide

    I understand in addition to detailing what the TV addict was not doing for 3 hours, they are going to attempt to shame (a fools errand) some in the GOP who were very afraid on that day, but big bold hairy men when the guys with flagpoles were under control.

    While 'dereliction of duty' is not a crime outside of the military or police, there's zero chance T**** isn't going to be watching and going ballistic.... I really wish somebody had "T**** Cam" in a split screen to watch orange turn to red...

    In a totally surprising twist, it turns out that Trump sat for hours and watched the violence unfold at the Capitol on the TV.

    You don't think OBL wasn't watching the tube on his big morning??

    Turns out the revolution could be televised after all....

    Speaking of TV, watching outtakes of his shitty post-riot videos tonight will likely be 50% horrifying, 50% amusing.... like the rest of his presidency...

    They don't call him 37-take Don for nothing.....

    I'm glad we will all get to see the outtakes. I wish we could get CCTV of him sitting and cheering at the TV while "his people" "fought for him" as well.

    Was reading your signature.... which line do you think is more damning in history?

    Your supporters with weapons, or my personal favorite from Donoghue??

    "Just say it was corrupt and leave the rest to me and the Republican congressmen,"

    Try as I may, I cannot get beyond the clear intent and knowledge shown in the Donoghue line....

    Yours, I suppose. Trump is such an idiot, he may not even have given a thought to his armed, angry mob using those weapons to break into the Capitol. I agree about the intent apparent in yours.
