It's about time that some of the Republican traitors serve time:
Appeals court upholds Steve Bannon contempt of Congress conviction. A fed appeals court on Fri upheld the criminal contempt of Congress conviction of former Trump WH senior aide Steve Bannon for refusing to testify and provide docs to the HSE CMTE that investigated #J6. It makes it more likely that Bannon will soon have to begin serving a sentence of 4 months in jail for his conviction.
In case anyone has forgotten, Rick Scott pleaded the 5th 75 times in a 2000 deposition. His former company, Columbia/HCA, pleaded guilty to 14 felonies and agreed to a $600+ million fine in what was at the time the largest health care fraud settlement in U.S. history.
Rep Scott Perry said in a closed door briefing with lawmakers on Tues that the KKK is the “the military wing of the Dem party” & that migrants coming to the US “have no interest in being Americans,” acc to audio of Perry’s comments.
Perry has repeated elements of the anti-immigrant & antisemitic replacement theory before, said this during the House Oversight CMTE's member briefing.
Aileen Cannon has made official what has been obvious for some time. She has no intention of moving forward on Donald Trump’s stolen documents trial with any kind of order or speed. Instead, she will entertain every one of his frivolous motions for months and months and months.
Remember: Texas saw an estimated 26,313 rape-related pregnancies during the 16 months after the state outlawed all abortions, with no exceptions for survivors of rape or incest, according to a 2024 study. Out of the thousands of rape-related pregnancies in 14 states, Texas had 45% of the total. #NoRepublicansEverAgain
Yes, it's cringeworthy because #TFG's special guests at MAL are likely VP candidates. However, these traitors are all #MAGA & whoever is chosen, would make the ticket even more deplorable.

Way to go AZ Attorney General, Kris Mays! These past (and future) elections could not have been more consequential. We still have a slightly traitorous legislature, but getting Governor Hobbs, Kris Mayes, Adrian Fontes and even a principled "republican" - Stephen Richer elected is making a huge difference.
I have no time for the apathetic or lazy people that don't want to understand what is happening.
Election denier, Turning Point employee, and all around jackass Austin Smith falsifying signatures on his reelection petition is so completely on brand for #GOPTraitors. Arizona GOP legislators just can't stop embarrassing themselves and Arizona.
Went to the AZ state house this morning to support the repeal vote. Outnumbered dramatically by people who desperately would like to control women. Vote failed and so once again AZ challenges Florida to see who can be the most dystopian.
The #GOPTraitors have a ONE vote margin in the house.
People need to show up! It feels like everyone just thinks that someone else will fix it. Everyone needs to start taking this crap seriously. The fascists & fake christians definitely are.
RU’s Foreign MIN: drawing up plans to try to weaken its Western adversaries & leverage the #Ukraine war to forge a global order free from what it sees as American dominance. Confirms: HYBRID WAR agst. the W. RU is seeking to subvert W support for UA & disrupt the dom. politics of the US/Eur. Cs, thru propaganda campaigns supporting isolationist & extremist policies +seeking to refashion geopol, drawing closer to CN/IR/NK -to shift the current bal. of power.
Sen. #JDVance is so possessed by bitterness over the ho-hum reaction to his shitty #HillbillyElegy book and movie that he's actively working to promote #RussianPropaganda. Vance is a brazen #traitor whose desire for America to fall to #Russia is undeniable. We have a serious problem of elected #Republicans collecting a US paycheck while aiding our enemies, and working for the detriment of us all. It's shocking how much #treason is happening in the #GQP.
Republican MOC distract from their governance failures & loyalty to #TFG:
"Congress has a lot of real & important work to do. So why are Rs poised to focus on silly home-appliance bills? In part bc real work is hard & doesn't lead to fundraising appeals & Fox segments.
While #Ukraine is desperate for US aid, #MoscowMike announces he plans to go to Mar-a-Lago for a jt. meeting with #TFG, a traitorous criminal conman who's the GOP presidential candidate, reminiscent of the last Speaker.
"Speaker Mike Johnson is making plans to deliver a joint press conference with Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago on Friday, focused on "election integrity," per sources.
Plans still fluid, but comes as Johnson is facing a threat to his speakership from MTG."
