The hits keep coming! Looks like Gym Jordan isn’t going to the mat for a third round and is hanging up his singlet. How does it feel to have a small group of determined GOP House members block your speakership, Congressman? Karma, meet the flamethrower who has flamed out.
Prosecutors are recommending a sentence of six years probation. Powell will also be required to testify at future trials and write an apology letter to the citizens of Georgia.
@GottaLaff@emptywheel#ArrestMikeFlynn should have been prosecuted. Advocating for military intervention and seizing voting machines cannot go unpunished one way or another. I hate that #traitor rat bastard turncoat. He's been promoting the #convoy and held up an AR (not that he knows which end is which) advocating violence. The fact that his retirement hasn't been yanked is inexcusable.
Just a reminder that on the 12/27/20 phone call where Trump told the acting Attorney General & his deputy to "just say that the election was corrupt and leave the rest to me & the R. congressmen," Trump also singled out one of those members, a "fighter" named Jim Jordan.
Ex-Trump White House trade adviser Peter Navarro wants a new trial after being convicted of contempt of Congress for bucking the House Select Committee Investigating the Jan. 6 Attack on the U.S. Capitol but before he is sentenced in a few months, he has also asked a federal judge to let him leave the United States for a medical procedure.
I left my #submarine in 1992 and there are things I still won't tell people about missions, operational parameters, etc.
Yet this chucklefuck just goes about disclosing national security details to a foreign national because he's a blowhard and a narcissist. He doesn't give a damn about the safety of our #military. He is completely unqualified to be Commander-in-Chief.
I imagine twenty years from now, retired Chinese, Russian, and Iranian spies will be sitting on a beach somewhere reminiscing about the golden age of their spy programs... back when Trump would leave U.S. secrets laying around his tacky resort house, or just straight up saying them out loud for anyone to hear. #traitor
It’s not the Dems responsibility to save the GOP from themselves.

Melanie Zanona:
NEW: Republicans on the bipartisan Problem Solvers Caucus are considering quitting the group “en masse” after Democrats in the group voted to oust McCarthy, per a GOP member of the group.
Latest sign of fallout after the historic removal of the speaker.
@GottaLaff Given Jim Jordan's attempts at prosecutorial interference, "weaponization of government" investigation, the "impeachment" investigation and ad nauseum Hunter Biden bullshit, the GOP "problem solvers" feigned outrage at Democrats decision not to save a #traitor is rich.
I am so sick of #Trump stalking women who threaten his power or interests. I remember him doing it to #HillaryClinton during the 2016 Presidential debates. Now he’s doing it to #LetitiaJames, reports the Washington Post. The #misogyny infuriates me.
Coming from the guy that refused to take over PG&E after they burned down half the state, this isn't surprising, but a sign he isn't presidential material; labor will remember this veto.
I am just shocked that Vladimir #Putin supports #Trump's plan to rescind #America's support of #Ukraine, and hand the country over to Putin. The fact that Trump views Putin's support for this plan as proof that he's somehow right should be latest nail in Trump's coffin. Trump is a #traitor who will always put his own personal interests above the best interests of the country. He will sell out any #ally, and abandon any #alliance if he thinks it's to his personal benefit.
"Former Boston police officer indicted for role in US Capitol insurrection
"Fisher stands accused of pushing a chair into a Capitol Police officer as the officer ran after another rioter who had deployed pepper spray at officers. Prosecutors say Fisher then assaulted the officer, and Fisher ended up on the ground.
NBC press release: “This Sunday, Sept. 17 on NBC, the inaugural broadcast of Meet the Press with #KristenWelker will feature an exclusive interview with Donald Trump. The pretaped interview will take place Thursday in Bedminster, N.J. and will be Trump’s first broadcast network interview since leaving office.” #MeetThePress#ChuckTodd#USPol#Trump#MSNBC#NBC#News
I saw an excerpt on the evening #news tonight...or rather, I saw that it happened and fast-forwarded through the part where this media whore (sorry, Kristen, but you deserve it) gave oxygen to the vile tomato that thinks he is still relevant in our lives.
Why is our so-called news giving air time to a #traitor and promoter of #sedition against our government?
Be on alert you #journalists that think that eyeballs are more important than truth. We are watching and we will call you out.
#ElonMusk is a #traitor and a #warCriminal who decided to disable #Ukraine's use of #Starlink in an intentional effort to #interfere with a planned #attack on #Russia's forces in the Crimean peninsula. #Musk is openly sympathetic to Russia, and their illegal war against Ukraine, and he believes he has the authority and mandate to interfere whenever he feels like it. Rather than accept responsibility, he's trying to blame Joe #Biden for the choices he made all by himself.
