Ongoing US GOP Debacle Thread: Seditious Republicans march toward authoritarianism

I agree, but this is a case of hypocrisy, where one parent has been super critical of another parent and ascribing the illegal actions of a child to the parent, all while the first parent's child is stealing cars. Seems worth a bit of mockery. Also it amsuing that the super pro-gun congresslady's son was arrested in a town called Rifle.

If we wanted to spend time pointing out and mocking Republican hypocrisy we wouldn’t have time to do anything else lol

They’re from Rifle.

But sure, there should be hearings to investigate the Boebert crime family. Are they running chop shops?
 
I was going to say good for him (or whoever is responsible for making his decisions these days) but it seems he's not retiring, just stepping down. Is there a big bonus paid out to your next of kin if you die in office?

Think a good mariticide incentive would benefit the country?
 
I'm seeing conflicting headlines: some say he's just stepping down from leadership (like Pelosi did), others that he's retiring from the Senate altogether
 
In case anyone was wondering, Senate vacancies in Kentucky are filled by the governor from a list of three choices provided by the party of the resigning/dead/whatever senator's party. The replacement holds the seat until the next general house election, but this would coincide with the 2026 election for this seat anyway.

If he is resigning from the Senate all together the November timing would put Beshear in an awkward spot if he wants to run for the seat in 2026 since he'd be campaigning against whoever he appointed (which doesn't matter to any reasonable person, but the rubes would eat up that line).

Beshear has also gone on the record saying he thinks Kentucky's senator replacement law is unconstitutional, so this could also end up in court.
 
Guessing he didn’t want to explicitly come out and throw support behind Trump so he has chosen the cowards way out like basically everyone else in the party.

Pretty cool that he can choose the weakest opponent then.
 
You know, I'm beginning to believe that maybe Lauren Boebert hasn't done a very good job of teaching her kids those traditional moral and family values that she talks about so much. Of course she may have a sex tape somewhere herself. It's the Palins all over again.

 
and here's Trump waving at future blood poisoners and vermin...

When I first saw this post I thought "that co-defendent looks a lot like his mom. Does he have an Oedipus complex going on."
 
The GOP ads for the redrawn likely Republican districts around here are all pathetically the same. Every one is a dude in a carhartt jacket who stands with Trump and wants to close the open border.

Assuming someone is interested in voting for one of these potential traitors how would they even tell them apart?
