The GOP has become a party of conspiracy theorist, unbalanced people and crooks. People need to wake up. We can't allow these people in positions of governance. Maybe an IQ and sanity test before people can run for office?

As a Military Veteran, I recall training that specified the fact that words matter. Is lack of any Service Background, what caused Trump to not comprehend this simple declarative?

When this first happened, I immediately proposed compassion for these people.

I have since read the extent of what they did. I take it all back.

Jail them! And may they all lose their jobs.

The members who continued to promote the lie about the election being rigged should be removed. Period. Each and every one of them are responsible for what happened at the Capitol, they are seditionists and should have no second chance to be in our government . Buh bye 👋

The inmates are trying to run the asylum. These breeds of Conservatives only know the 2nd Amendment (and not very well), and maybe Freedom of Religion (for Evangelical Christians). They are clueless what Freedom of Speech really means. At least Pelosi is in charge of the Reps and can keep pressure on them to behave.

It would very interesting to ascertain if Bieber’s & Greene conducted private “tours” for visitors to the Capitol the days prior to the attempt insurrection?. If they did do do, who were the visitors? One could certainly be suspicious that Boebert’s communications director resignation and the Capital siege were related.

The Republican party has evolved into the official White Supremacist/QAnon party. The white supremacist part always existed; it was just not flaunted like it is now. They’re proud of their brand and members who choose to remain in the GOP are completely onboard. The past 4 years were spent installing/embedding these people in all tiers of government while the media and general public obsessed over everything and anything Trump did.

Michelangelo — did you see this? Chuck agreed to some power sharing with Mitch! WTF..?!? After all he did to us? This is the problem with all these old hands at the top of the Dem party!

CNN: McConnell, Schumer close in on power-sharing agreement in evenly divided Senate.

Thanks Austin for the Netflix docs. The problem is that this Q crap has gone so mainstream and being embraced by people that were somewhat rational recently. My daughter's mother-in-law is calling her a terrorist and a traitor because my wife and I are liberal. My daughter is not political. I think Russia has used twitter and Face Book to brainwash people, and they were making tons of money helping out. The Pressure must be kept up.

They both scare me politically along with Madison Cawthorn.

We have to do all we can to keep a Democratic majority since the GOP is now attracting the bottom of the fringe right gun-toting barrel. I agree she needs to be banned from Twitter and anyone else that has the same riot and fear mongering potential as Trump.

I was kicked off Twitter for calling Laura Ingram white trash. That was back in September. Still haven’t been able to get back in.
