Feb 11, 2024 · Former President Donald Trump said Saturday he would encourage Russia to “do whatever the hell they want” if it attacked a NATO country that didn’t pay enough for defense.

Russia isn’t our enemy bub. You all want us to go to war with them for some reason. Yet you of course aren’t willing to fight such a war. So sit down and shut up and let the adults handle Putin.

He was his guest at the SOTU, and there's a flippin photo of them having fun hanging out together in a convertible... among other things as well, so it sure looks like they're friends. Nice try. It's sad to me that partisan politics is more important to you than anything else, including our country and getting to the truth.

Oh, no. Not hanging out in a convertible. That's definitely suspicious.

They should all be arrested.... or something.

Russia isn’t our enemy bub.

Sure it is. Any friend of trump's in an enemy of the US.

Dude, some of us know your game.

Not necessarily an enemy of the U.S. directly, but assuredly an enemy of democracy.

He can't be as bad as the current AG can he?

Good god. What has happened to our country?

 

[buttercup]

So every time someone takes a selfie with a politician it means they are besties? Where does that picture come from?

Why am I supposed to be all excited about it? Because Gaetz knows someone who happens to be a kook? According to other kooks?

That is guilt by association...

First of all, Whitney Webb is not a kook. But I get why you have to call her that.

Secondly, now you're just being dishonest. You're trying to paint Johnson as a stranger, but in order to do that you have to ignore not just one, not just two, not just three but several things. But frankly I don't care enough about this particular part of the story to continue arguing about it...but I do find it interesting that you are so insistent in your defense, it's almost as if the lady doth protest too much.

You can suck up to politicians all you want. Well, the ones with the right letter by their name, of course. To me that is pathetic, which is why my faith in humanity is restored when I go to other places on the internet, where people actually care about getting to truth, as opposed to red helmet and blue helmet wearing partisans bickering back and forth with each other 24/7, neither caring about doing anything but defending their politicians. How pathetic.

Right, she's a 9/11 troofer kook.

 

[Votto]

Good god. What has happened to our country?

It apparently went insane.

 

[para bellum]

First of all, Whitney Webb is not a kook. But I get why you have to call her that.

She comes off as a wingnut. I am not interested in WEF/Bilderberger/Illumaniti conspiracy theories, and the uniparty, and all that crap. Supermen behind the curtain pulling all the strings, we are puppets, etc.

Sorry if that offends you, you are free to believe whatever you want.

As far as Johnson, I have no reason to disbelieve Gaetz when he described how he met him, or that he does not subscribe to everything that Johnson writes. Johnson speaks for himself, he does not speak for Gaetz.

Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Illinois), chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, called on the House Ethics Committee to preserve its report and documents about former congressman Matt Gaetz (R-Florida) after he abruptly resigned from the chamber Wednesday.

Gaetz did so following President-elect Donald Trump’s announcement that he would nominate Gaetz to be attorney general.

Gaetz resigned days before the House Ethics Committee is set to vote on releasing its findings from an investigation into allegations of sexual misconduct, illegal drug use and accepting improper gifts. Gaetz has denied any wrongdoing.

Durbin, who also serves as Senate majority whip, said Thursday that the timeline of Gaetz’s resignation “raises serious questions” about what could be in the report.

“We cannot allow this valuable information from a bipartisan investigation to be hidden from the American people,” Durbin said in a statement. “Make no mistake: this information could be relevant to the question of Mr. Gaetz’s confirmation as the next Attorney General of the United States and our constitutional responsibility of advice and consent.”

Trump’s choice of Gaetz to head the Justice Department surprised many lawmakers in both parties. Hours afterward, House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-Louisiana) revealed to reporters that Gaetz had submitted his resignation “effective immediately.”

The House Ethics Committee is made up of an equal number of Democrats and Republicans. The chairman is Rep. Michael Guest (R-Mississippi).

WaPo


Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk posted Wednesday night that Republicans who voted to confirm Merrick Garland as Biden’s attorney general in 2021 but don’t support Matt Gaetz as Donald Trump’s attorney general “will face an immediate primary challenge.” Nine Republicans in seats up in 2026 voted for the Garland nomination, including Susan Collins (Maine) and Thom Tillis (North Carolina).

Nine Republican senators up for reelection in 2026 supported Garland’s nomination in 2021.
