Ignoring facts that don't fit the narrative? Now I have seen everything.
Tell us all about the post-Trump conservative revolution, it sounds fascinating!!

To be fair to jhmd and angus those guys, it’s got to really sting that Hillary goddamned Clinton was exactly right. I mean spot on.
and Obama too, with the clinging and the guns and whatnot. Yeesh

If this was true, how do you all ever lose anything?
Yep. Obama's "They get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations" is an even more accurate description of the GOP base than it was in 2008 when he first said it.

White farmers. Black farmers got disproportionately less than white farmers. That’s why Republicans liked it.
I don't remember what article i read a week or so about this topic, but I think in the Biden plan, the overall money distribution was around 25% black farmers.
Now I have no clue what the rules are for who qualifies, and I don't know the demographic breakdown of farmers, but I wouldn't think 25% of money going to black farmers is some huge racism discrimination event. So I imagine this lawsuit is being pushed by some republican group backing the efforts as some more culture war B/S.
According to the article, about 99.5% of the initial aid that the Trump Administration gave to farmers caught up in his trade wars went to white farmers. In 2020 an agency was set up to help farmers hurting due the effects of the covid pandemic. About 97% of that money went to white farmers, and white farmers on average received eight times more financial aid than black farmers. But according to this lawsuit, it's white farmers who are being discriminated against.
Let’s see. We’ve got a daughter of a former VP (who wasn’t invited to the most recent RNC) on the eve of being thrown out of her position as the 3rd highest ranking Republican in the House. And then the Republican nominee for president prior to Trump who also wasn’t invited to the convention.
I don't believe we agree on what this word means. People vote for the GOP candidates to the General Assembly for plenty of reasons. Love for a former President isn't on that list.

He also somehow came back less funny. Just Angus 2.0 now. The last half a decade hasn't been kind.
she was removed by voice vote. no need to tally up the #s since it wasn't close.

FWIW, "The survey, which polled nearly 2,000 registered voters over the weekend, found that half of those who identified as Republican or “leans Republican” supported House Republicans voting to remove Cheney, while just 19 percent said she should remain in her post."
I think this is foolish, as stated, and while 50% is too high and 19% is too low, 50% is not a clear majority. It is half. There's an ideological struggle going on but the 50% polled who didn't support her ouster aren't outliers; that's the other half.
