MAGAts are traitors.

They tried to destroy our democracy and install Trump as dictator. They trampled and beat hundreds of police officers in an attempt get their hands on the vice president in order to lynch him.

Republicans are so lawless and disdainful of our justice system that they aren't even a little bit bothered that Trump was found liable for rape and fraud. They don't care in the slightest that Trump is out on bail for trying to steal the election, and for stealing classified documents.

Republicans are attempting to impeach a newly elected judge for the singular reason that she acknowledged the legally decided fact that Republicans cheated and gerrymandered their state to seize power without the consent of the governed.

Republicans have become echo chambers for Putin's propaganda, openly siding with our enemies over our allies.

Republicans are openly plotting to replace all the NONPARTISAN long-term government employees with violently partisan stooges who don't come anywhere close to meeting the bare minimum requirements for doing these essential jobs.

Make no mistake at all: Republicans are a minority party with no interest anything but seizing power and harming anyone who they decide is an enemy. They can't win over the voters with their perverted ideology, so they are determined to do ANYTHING inside or outside the bounds of the law, or even basic human decency, in order to steal the country from real Americans.

Republicans must be stopped, because if they gain power, they will make sure we never have anything close to a real election again. We will be living under a Christian theocracy, every bit as sick and hateful as the Taliban.

The Grand Marnier was an interesting choice. You're kind of skirting into a duck a l'Orange flavor set.

No. A long time ago, Republicans were the party of Lincoln. They were the anti-slavery party. They didn't become evil until just about halfway through the last century, when they leaned hard into bigotry.

We could have used that attitude when he handed the election to Bush. I guess it only took a Republican war of choice and a catastrophic economic collapse to make him realize that no, Democrats and Republicans aren't essentially the same.

I used to love watching primary debates, but these people are so disgusting and anti-American it makes me physically ill to watch them.

The entire Republican party is a cancer on this country.

They are shameless liars, so it doesn't matter what they say.

The Republican party has a long, dirty history of being nothing but awful to workers, and extremely anti-union.

If you are a working person in the United States and you feel you don't make enough to make ends meet (let alone get ahead), Republicans are 1000% to blame.

Republicans have made sure that the minimum wage is not a livable wage. And this has kept ALL wages down. Republicans have made sure your healthcare is expensive and have fought with all their might to take it away from you entirely.

Republicans are trying to take way your social security, and they made sure that pensions were replaced by the inferior 401k scheme. Republicans made sure credit card interest rates were insanely high. Republicans made sure that banks could charge you money for not having enough money.

Republicans complain about illegal immigrants, but they have 100 percent been behind the system that let corporations use illegal immigrants labor to avoid minimum wage and taxes.

If you have less than $10,000,000, I guarantee you that Republicans are doing everything they can to hurt you economically.

Fortunately there are 3 other criminal trials against Trump that she can't ruin with her corruption.

Trump presided over the LONGEST GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN A IN HISTORY. And his party controlled all three branches of government.

We all know the Republicans are 100 percent to blame for not having the basic competence to keep the lights on.

We've seen no evidence that the army or local SWAT would have been sent. And who knows what side they would have been on. Many of our institutions were dominated by Trump supporters.

The LG V20 was the last great flagship phone that had a removable battery. I miss those.

Honestly it's probably not happening because spending that much time with that moronic cult would be torture.

He got off easy.

They are all getting slaps on the wrist considering that what they tried to do was destroy our democracy.

If they had succeeded, that would have been the end of it... Forever.. We'd be living under a Trump dictatorship, or possibly engaged in bloody civil war right now.

5 years. Pathetic.

Traitors gonna trait.

2hrs of the same tired "dur... Woke is dumb!" joke over and over? Hard pass.

Also, cleaning a cut is woke now?

I grew up in the 80s, I'm just ten years younger than Bill Burr, and I can't get on board with this sort of plot at all.

As if society passed these people by, and they're just now discovering decades of social evolution.

These characters haven't watched the news, used social media, or seen a movie in 20 years? Come on.

Not at all. McCarthy got the deal he thought he could sell to his team.

McCarthy working with the Democrats in Congress would mean getting a deal way more Democrat friendly, and forgetting about even trying to appease the freedom Caucus.

The Bush administration threw due process out the window. "Enemy combatants", extra-judicial detention... It was nightmare.

You're not missing anything. This is a politically stupid move.

Yeah, that'll help her credibility. Give her a task with accountability but no authority to actually change anything.

McCarthy: "hard-right Republicans want to burn the whole place down!"

Moderate Democrats: "so you'll work with us instead, to pass legislation that keeps the lights on, and addresses some of the problems we both agree exist?"

McCarthy: "No. Fuck you. Die in a fire."

I was going to say it's every Forbes article ever.

There's an ocean of journalism that's still legitimate, and pretending that there isn't only plays into the hands of bad actors.
