Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

[Rhinox]

It's a dumb plan from a dumb man who caters to dummies. Even those with half a brain are realizing that he's got nothing.
The cult remains but it is simply not enough.

My god (sorry I’m late on a bunch of this stuff. But wow!) According to this NYT report, the head of the FBI and the Attorney General are holding meetings *in the Situation Room* with GOP lawmakers they are trying to pressure to rescind their votes to release the Epstein info. This is madness.

One reason you hold a meeting to pressure/cajole/threaten Boebert in the Situation Room is so she can't record it.

This is where we are as a country:

Andy Craig (@andycraig.bsky.social)

The attorney general and the FBI director, a manosphere podcaster bro, pulled into the situation room a member of Congress best known for getting kicked out of a Beetlejuice musical for drunkenly giving her date a handy, in order to pressure her about the president's child sex trafficking scandal.

Conversely: if your grand scheme hangs on the likes of bobo... Your scheme is foiled like it's saturday morning in the 80's.

That's a lot of work to put into a Democrat hoax.

Meanwhile I'm curious what's going on with those right-wing voters who broke with Trump on this issue specifically and started demanding he release the files. Did they get bored and go back to bashing Democrats, or are they still on board with this? Y'all are my only source of evidence that such people ever existed so I don't know where else I can ask.

 

[wonko the sane?]

Don't forget: republicans are hypocrites. They might have only been claiming to be on board with releasing the epstein files cause they were bored what with the shutdown they caused. Or they might be genuinely interested because they know trump is ******* cooked no matter what, and can't count on his coat tails anymore.

Don't count on anything until it happens.

Megyn Kelly's 'Not A Pedophile' Defense Of Jeffrey Epstein Is As Repulsive As It Sounds

The MAGA host said she was "not trying to make an excuse" for Epstein — before doing exactly that.

Did we really need more proof that Megyn Kelly is a garbage human? Like every other vapid blonde that works for the Murdochs, she traded her soul for success.

 

[KidTDragon]

So our current president may have given our former president a beej?

We are living in the WEIRDEST reality right now.

 

[Ironbite4]

I'd rather live in the sanest reality thank you very much.

 

[The Mighty Mollusk]

I'd settle for a quiet reality for a while. I'm tired of unprecedented times. Let me see some precedents.

I don't watch South Park but based on what I've heard about the current season so far, I can only imagine the writers are having the time of their lives right about now.

I guess we know who the real Big Beautiful Bill is.

They got paid in full, in advance... They win no matter what happens.
