It's working, keep attacking these fuckers. I just left an angry voicemail to my GOP rep sounding like an angry conservative.
How much moonshine did you have to guzzle beforehand?
It was about 17 tubes of vagisil.
Just tip the still over and chug til it’s gone.
"Method reacting."
So… a Tuesday?
And how much dip did you accidentally swallow while frothing with rage?
Oddly I find tequila makes me sound more republican.
I'm drunk, and it's all Mexico's fault!
I never had a reason to buy johnny walker blue until just now
That seems a bit expensive for them.
(And actually I think that was Carter’s preferred drink.) plus it’s imported. Should probably be drinking a bourbon instead.
I have a particular country club fart sniffing donor type in mind.
As an actor, none!
My rep is Scott Fucking Perry and this might actually work on him
He's your rep. You don't need to pretend, just say you expected Trump to follow through on his promises and you want Scott Fucking Perry to do his job and hold the president of the US accountable.
Perry famously will not meet with constituents who are no pre-vetted. He has sent me many, many “Fuck you I do what I want” letters in response to non-partisan messages I’ve sent him.
The only people he cares about are MAGA. The dude helped plan Jan 6.
And the worst part is that our Democratic challenger is a former Republican TV anchor.
Because that is literally the best this area can do.
Vote Blue No Matter Who™
…right after he and all the other chucklefucks voted to NOT release it.
Honestly, how the fuck does ANYONE take these fucksticks seriously?
Your average person isn't paying attention to details like this. They don't know, and frankly don't care even if they did.
A committee voted, not every member.
There was also a separate floor vote. Every single Republican present voted against it.
<the decision of his attorney general, Pam Bondi, to withhold information>
The decision of Pam Bondi to LIE!
They tell so many lies they can't keep 'em straight.
What are they doing in politics???
Politics 101- keep your lies straight
The surest sign yet that the political winds are blowing against Trump on this one, since Johnson is not only a weather vane, but a coward.
Bullshit. Nothing will happen. He's a convicted felon. They didn't do anything for that. They can't for this. He's a king. He's a dictator. Nothing will happen. If you don't like it, get violent or leave the country. Democracy is dead.
You appear to have read a different post than the one I wrote.
It's like WWE it's all scripted drama. It's why murkowski and Collins can faint anger and rotate votes for things.
They aren’t that competent.
He is also 3rd in line for president :(
quickly, appeal to his greed and lust for power!
If ONLY there was SOMETHING he could DO! UNFORTUNATELY he's just the LEADER OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES!
Blah blah blah blah blah.
That's all this is. Talk.
When it comes time for action they'll vote no like they literally just did. This is all about trying to have their way and keep their base.
lol, but then today he votes against bringing it to a vote?
I think it didn't make it out of committee (pls down vote if I'm wrong) so never reached the floor for a full vote.
Call their offices. Find one from your state and just call asking why? Why don’t you think the files should be public? Why all the secrecy? Who are you protecting?
If you read this, it’s me asking you personally, directly, to call a congressperson from your state and ask why
And then he will be one step closer to being President Mike Johnson!
pro gamer move
Mike's Johnson is jealous of the kid play he missed out on.
🍿
What I don't understand is that out of all the fucked up shit Trump has done, this is the one thing that may end up being his downfall. I am beyond being befuddled and bewildered.
Well, it is fucking kids. That should at least count as something, but it's still insane that anyone is surprised by it.
Republicans don't give a shit about kids. That's why it's confusing.
calls for release of files
votes against releasing files knowing base is stupid and will listen to him say the files should be released but not pay attention when he actually votes against it
Withholding the Epstein list, convenient gaps in the "Oh, we found it!" video. Looks like Trumps method of putting bleeding edge incompetent people in positions of power comes back to bite his sorry ass.
Stole this from elsewhere on Lemmy, which was apparently snagged from reddit, and then downloaded to my phone & 2 laptops...

Here are the Epstein Files. For those of you who have seen this comment before, my apologies. I am trying to keep this information alive. Please feel free to share. Contact me if you want provenance.

Trump’s name is circled. The circled individuals are the ones involved in the trafficking ring according to the person who originally released the book. These people would be “The List “ Here is the story.
