That’s a pretty pretty big stretch.

There’s plenty the Biden admin has done that wouldn’t constitute actual treason. Refusing to provide uncapped military assistance to Israel isn’t in the same stratosphere.

Given he's accommodating Hamas by not assisting Israel, it isn't a stretch in any sense. All a matter of definition, and how you view our allies.

Not that it will, but I would love to see it pass.

From Massie's newsletter:

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has introduced a resolution to remove Mike Johnson from his position as Speaker of the House. I am a cosponsor of the legislation.

We recently held a press conference to discuss the need for Speaker Johnson's removal. I have embedded the video of this event above and I encourage you to watch it.

As Speaker, Mike Johnson has continually enlisted a majority of House Democrats to override House Republicans. He did this to:

1) Pass an omnibus spending bill that spends more money than Pelosi did

2) Reauthorize warrantless spying on Americans; further, he cast the deciding vote to defeat the warrant requirement sought by House conservatives

3) Send $60 billion to Ukraine

Together, Speaker Johnson and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries have revealed the existence of the Uniparty that currently governs Washington, D.C. With this poor record, it comes as no surprise that House Democratic Leadership recently endorsed Speaker Johnson in writing.

Why does Hakeem Jeffries want Mike Johnson as Speaker? Because the Democrats want:

• No action taken on the border
• No conservative policy victories
• More money for Ukraine
• A Democratic House majority
• An expanded Department of Justice and Federal Bureau of Investigation
• No budget cuts
• President Trump to lose in November

They know that the uninspiring Mike Johnson can deliver all of these things if he remains as Speaker.

So now besides cheating, Massie will blame Johnson remaining as Speaker as a reason for Trump losing. LMAO. He's making himself harder & harder for me to vote for again.

 

[vhcat70]

What worries me (and really it should not since Jeffries claim they run the house) is the democrats will gain majority with GOP retirements and such. That's their end game is to control all three branches, then look out if that happens.

Jefferies can claim whatever he wants. And you believe him just now? LMAO.

But oust Johnson & he's probably right on Dims gain House control.

 

[vhcat70]

i’ve heard more than one conservative speak out against mtg and her efforts to oust the speaker. admittedly it comes at a bad time when the pubs should be focused on getting trump elected, but should johnson be given free reign to continue to bend a knee to the democrats?
i get the feeling that there are very few true hard line republicans in our governing body. i wish republicans had the resolve to stick together like the dems.

Duh, of course there are very few hardline fridge Pubs. And Pubs could stick together if not for them.

The Dems pretty much have control of the House right now. Your love of RINOs and establishment politicians is pathetic.

Well we are the United States of America, not Israel. It’s a huge stretch to say refusing to fund their military operations is treason.

Thats the type of insane thinking that has people impeach a president for considering possibly not sending weapons to Ukraine.

196-11 was the Pub vote to keep Johnson. Only 11 non-rinos left for you. Must be lonely out there on the limb cutting it off behind you.

 

[vhcat70]

So even Trump opposed MTG’s motion to vacate showing that the crazies on this board are even out of step with him. I guess he’s not a true “conservative”.

First good point you've ever made here.

 

[vhcat70]

Of course he isn't a true conservative. Look how much money he allowed Congress to spend and pushed bailout money which shifted us to quasi socialism.

Doesn't mean he isn't by far the better choice but no one should think he is a true conservative.

So what true conservative would you vote for over him? Me: DeSantis in a heartbeat. Youngkin too. Abbott.

But MAGA wouldn't because they aren't conservative.

Correct. "Left Can't Meme" contains more truth than many readily admit. Late night talk shows are beyond absurd, written be Democrat party operatives.

 

[LowerLevelSeatA]

So Biden will send bombs to Ukraine so they can kill innocent Russian civilians (not that Russia government is good and not saying i disagree with sending weapons to Ukraine) yet he won’t send weapons to Israel because those weapons could kill innocent Gaza civilians? Not taking sides necessarily on getting involved in other’s conflicts, Just trying to understand the difference in the two cases.

Thornton's used to be supplied by Dunkin's, not sure who's supplying them now, they're just branded as their own now. Have you tried Jeff's PPU's?

Yea, Thornton's now actually makes their own. They stopped the deal with Dunkin after Dunkin started opening up their own locations. As you may know, the other side of my personal empire is a struggling restaurant. At a food supplier (Sysco) event I met the woman who basically was the Thornton's employee who was over all of that, their food services essentially. I am a big fan of their PPU's so when she told me that she worked in that part of the company I asked her, "who makes your PPU's." Got the scoop.

 

[bigblueinsanity]

Desantis and youngkin for sure. I think Abbott is fine but down my list because he caved on covid whereas desantis stood strong.

I think Vivek is interesting and I would vote for him but I'm concerned he's too idealistic.

I'll still stand in the rain to vote trump over Biden but I sure wish trump would've stepped aside to let desantis take the nom. Desantis and vp Vivek would win this election easily. They would be a great combo with a practical leader who gets things done and an ideal guy in Vivek.

A blast from the past:

 

[Bill Cosby]

You do realize consumer spending DROPS, not rises when Americans have no money to spend. 😂

Just saw a clip of Biden on CNN. Holy shit I can’t believe this is the message you guys are going with. The reporter said people are spending 30% more on groceries, and he parroted the line “people have money to spend.”

I was giving sambowieshin the benefit of the doubt that he came up with that idiocy himself, but nope, looks like that actually is the democrat talking point.

 

[HymanKaplan]

This is literally treason. If Bibi and mush mouth ever have a chance to meet in the next 6 months, I hope he punches him right between his squinty eyes.

Trump isn't going to even NEED Michigan to win. (That said, I still think he's going to win Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania)

 

[WTF Cat]

Are there "innocent" Gaza civilians?

These folks are still Palestinians... and its WELL DOCUMENTED that they're taught from birth to hate Jews.

One thing that amazes me about rfk is the fact he isn't much younger than the other two, but he seems decades younger. I hope he gets some debate time vs Biden because I'd love to see him rip the vaccine mandates.

Of course Biden, if he has any acuity on that night, can just blame it all on trump because trump was the one who pushed the whole vaccine rush.

That goes back to my main complaint about trump being the nominee: he cannot attack Dems on anything.

Vaccines? Trump started them. Riots? Trump allowed them. Inflation? Trump started that too.

Do every issue where they are most vulnerable, trump either started or allowed.

 

[HymanKaplan]

The myth that "Palestinians" (whatever that means) are victims of Hamas; that they're innocents, held captive by a terrorist faction is absolute twaddle.

 

[Bill Cosby]

I tend to agree. Saw yesterday he announced he has worms eating his brain so he could pull more votes from Biden. Should just let it play out.

This is another example as to why the media and the "Press" are different and the Media does not deserve 2nd Am protection. The govt use them to spread disinformation.

Cuomo went on to express frustration over the misinformation surrounding ivermectin and the failure to provide accurate information to the public. He criticized government officials for stifling open dialogue.

“We were given bad information about Ivermectin. The real question is, why? Everyone’s going to say, ‘Joe Rogan was right.’ But that’s not what matters. What matters is the entire clinical community knew that Ivermectin couldn’t hurt you. They knew it. I know they knew it. How do I know? Because now I’m doing nothing but talking to these clinicians who, at the time, were overwhelmed by COVID, and they weren’t saying anything. Not that they were hiding anything, but it’s cheap, it’s not owned by anybody, and it’s used as an anti-microbial, antiviral in all of these different ways. It has been for a long time.”

Ironically, Cuomo was one of those spreading misinformation about Ivermectin during the pandemic.

Devils advocate on inflation though, while Trump (and Congress) lit a fire, the unnecessary subsequent spending bills Biden signed were unprecedented gasoline thrown on the fire. The economy was set to recover once the government got out of the way, and the democrats decided to continue multi trillion dollar deficits.

Edit: and these campus Gaza rallies give Trump a talking point on the BLM riots.

Covid shot policy and lockdowns are unforgivable.
