@mmpadellan You're not wrong sadly, but wonder how that will look in a campaign ad...Make America Great Again Back to this? References to what you just said? Is this your definition of our best America? Mr. Jaime Harrison??? ๐ ๐บ๐ธ๐ฝโ๏ธ๐ก๐๐ณ
@ConspiracyCaw@BillyBaldwin @ogden_robyn Seeing that shot with Stone and Flynn, RFK Jr is likely part of the Trump...errr Putin plan. ๐บ๐ธ๐ฝโ๏ธ๐ก๐๐ณ
@rhonda_harbison @rocket_this @Yahoo@SpeakerJohnson@RepMTG Should ask for confirmation of Mayorkas's "crimes" if to the same level as Trump's efforts in 1/6 or his colluding w/adversary Russia & supporters to find dirt on Biden. The lead candidate against him for re-election; whom they voted in support of AGAINST impeachment & removal.๐บ๐ธ
BREAKING: Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott hits back hard after racist Republicans absurdly blame him for the ship collision that collapsed the Francis Scott Key Bridge, calling him "DEI mayor" because he's Black.
This is the PERFECT response...
"I know, and we know, and you know very well that Black men, and young Black men in particular, have been the bogeyman for those who are racist and think that only straight, wealthy White men should have a say in anything," said Mayor Scott during an appearance on MSNBC.
It's worth noting that it wasn't just rank and file Republicans who launched racist smears at Scott. Utah State Representative Phil Lyman as well as congressional candidate Anthony Sabatini joined in.
DEI, which stands for "Diversity, equity, and inclusion," has quickly become an obsession in right-wing circles, as they attempt to blame every problem on diversity. They use the term in place of a racial slur to articulate their bigotry without fully committing to it.
"Weโve been the bogeyman for them since the first day they brought us to this country, and what they mean by DEI in my opinion is duly elected incumbent," Mayor Scott said.
"We know what they want to say, but they donโt have the courage to say the N-word, and the fact that I donโt believe in their untruthful and wrong ideology,โ he went on.
"And I am very proud of my heritage and who I am and where I come from scares them, because me being at my position means that their way of thinking, their way of life of being comfortable while everyone else suffers is going to be at risk, and they should be afraid because thatโs my purpose in life," he added.
He stated that "everybody is working together" on the rebuild efforts.
"Weโre ignoring all the conspiracy theorists, everyone whoโs playing bridge engineer at home whoโs never even taken a class on engineering and understanding that what this is about is showing the world once and again that Baltimore canโt be broken, our spirit is strong, and we will rebuild together and honor those who we lost," he said.
Well said!

Christian Nationalists are not Christians. They do not follow the teachings of Jesus Christ. This is not a Christian nation. This sermon from Texas state representative James Talarico should be mandatory viewing for MAGA Republicans in Congress.
@IrishMsKelly Have to remember (I had to too) how this country started & what it did to get here. As bad as it was, we're lucky we've come this far. We've so much more to do to achieve its full potential. It's a democracy & that's wonderful, but there's a lot under its blood-stained rug.๐บ๐ธโค๏ธ๐ฝ
@lillybug000@UnionProudUS The auto industry realizes that things must change and transition must happen. The fossil fuel industry doesn't realize that they could make money in both industries if they helped the green fuel industry get the start and support it needs so we can all live; Earth included!
So, in their effort to besmirch President Biden, the Republicans have managed to reveal the fact that then AG Bill Barr actively covered up the crimes he knew then-President Trump was committing, and that Congressman Pete Sessions, then Congressman Devin Nunes, Senators Ron Johnson and Lindsey Graham as well as John Solomon and Sean Hannity over at Fox, were all in on the plot to push a false narrative to deceive the American public ahead of the 2020 election.
This hearing has been far more fruitful than I had anticipated.
BREAKING: Democratic star Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez obliterates the Republicans' hack witness during a hearing for the sham Biden impeachment inquiry.
This is one for the books...
"I have a quick question. Simple. Is it your testimony today that you personally witnessed President Joe Biden commit a crime?" AOC asked Tony Bobulinski, a former associate of Hunter Biden who has been doing MAGA's bidding.
"I believe the fact that he was sitting with me while I was putting together a business deal..." began Bobulinski.
"Did you witness the president commit a crime? Is it your testimony?" interjected AOC.
"Yes," said Bobulinski.
"And what crime have you witnessed?" asked AOC.
"How much time do I have to go through it?" he responded, evading the question.
"It is simple: you name the crime," she responded. "Did you watch him steal something?"
"Corruption statutes, RICO conspiracy, FARA..." he rambled, without offering any details.
"What is the crime sir? Specifically!" she said.
"You asked me to answer the question, I answered the question," whined Bobulinski, who had not answered the question. "RICO, you're obviously not familiar with, corruption statutes..."
"Excuse me sir! Excuse me sir. Excuse me sir," said AOC. "RICO is not a crime, it is a category. What is the crime?"
Bobulinski then whined, rambled, and dissembled without providing a specific crime. As usual, Republicans want to rely on vague assertions to do their dirty PR work. AOC reclaimed her time and then tore into the entire inquiry.
"Clearly, what we are seeing here today is a continuation of the fifteen month saga of the Republican majority lost in the desert," said AOC. "Impeachment 101, the majority party or whomever is raising impeachment must accuse the president of a high crime, a specific high crime or misdemeanor."
During another stretch of the hearing, AOC voiced the same issueโ
"At this point, the story isnโt the fact that the basis of this impeachment inquiry is wrong. The story is, โWhy it is proceeding anyway?โ" she asked, pointing out that there are "no charges" on the table.
"I have yet to hear in the chairmanโs opening the allegation that they are specifically charging the president of the United States with," she went on. "I am hearing about the โBiden family.โ I am hearing about this and that. I am not hearing the specific allegation by this committee. What is it? It is not here. And that is the problem."
โThe story is when this committee knew they were working with falsified evidence? That is the story," she added.
Well said congresswoman! This impeachment inquiry is an utter disgrace and a complete waste of taxpayer dollars. All that it proves is that Republicans have nothing to hit President Biden on. The sooner it concludes, the better.
