Hey, Trump in 2020, did way better than Hitler in 1933 with 33% of the popular vote, Trump got 46.9%! Now Hitler was way more electable than Trump, cleaned up his act and wore a suit and tie, even acted civilized for a time, until he took total power. So needless to say I'm concerned about America and figure if it wasn't for covid with him fucking up so badly, with so many dead and him catching it himself right before the election, he would be POTUS today and we would all be fucked.

If they subpoenaed Pence and Trump, there is little they could do about it, Steve Bannon's fate will send shockwaves through Trump world. If Donald refused to appear they would have him on contempt of congress, but at this point I don't think that matters much! Pence would care though, he is home free, so far, with clean hands, or clean enough hands and he wouldn't risk contempt of congress or perjury for a guy who tried to have him publicly hanged on the capitol lawn by a mob of morons.

I wonder if the DOJ is reconsidering indicting Mark Meadows for contempt of congress, in light of the evidence emerging from the J6 panel? I think they should demand that the DOJ reevaluate the case against Meadows, the J6 panel does not feel he has cooperated with their investigations. However, he could be speaking to the FBI right now, it is a crime to lie to them too. If the FBI is not interviewing Mark Meadows and a bunch of other people by now, why not? Blowing off a congressional subpoena for testimony and documents can carry up to 2 years in prison and could be used as leverage over him by the DOJ with immediate jail time

Meadows must have a pardon in his pocket but doesn't want to disclose that yet. I don't see any other reasoning for what is happening, or more precisely, not happening right now.

Mitch McConnell EXPOSED for GASLIGHTING Americans in disturbing Senate Floor Speech
27,341 views Jul 17, 2022 Mitch McConell gave a speech from the Senate floor where he applauded the Supreme Court’s recent rulings including the decision overturning Roe v. Wade. McConnell said that’s these decisions reflect the diversity of our country. They don’t. They reflect the radical fringe views of our country and are way out of touch with the normal life Americans want with the the right to choose, the right to be free from school shootings, the right to address climate change and pandemics, and other freedoms this radical Supreme Court has taken away.

Reading this, I had a thought about why no apparent DOJ action on Meadows: he may already have been under the microscope. If so, they may still be getting useful info from tracking & digging into him - and in that case, I‘d expect them to finish that up before issuing an indictment.

And, honestly, after Mulvaney, why on earth would DOJ *not* keep a close eye on Trump’s chief-of-staff?

Christian Nationalism Appears Ascendant In GOP Politics
6,660 views Jul 18, 2022 In June 1979, Jerry Falwell Senior, a flamboyant Baptist minister, announced his intentions to build one of the most powerful political coalitions in American history. The "Moral Majority," as it would later be tagged, was not only instrumental in the election of Ronald Reagan... it also forged a bond between the Republican Party and Christian fundamentalist groups that persists to this day – one that we now see manifesting even on the nation’s highest court.

These people are not republicans, they might think they are, but they are not, the party belongs to assholes and traitors and those who are allied with them. These old men helped make it that way and filling their party with racist scum that drove all the decent people out, the only ones left are corrupt slime balls and lunatics. They probably voted for Trump and would vote for him again, if he were the party's nominee.

Their only use is dividing the republican party, but they will just take a chip off it at best. Running independents is a good idea, as long as they are patriots and not the same traitors. There is nothing wrong with being a conservative, but there is a lot wrong with being a republican. This guy would be unelectable in today's GOP and would not make it through a primary.

Yeah, more or less. I do equate those guys with the prosperity gospel folks. It's all using Jesus for your own ends. It's grifters using the thing at their disposal to do what they do.

I think the christian fascists are much more dangerous than whatever you want to call the current goons, the crazy white trash element. The CWTE will get taken out night of long knives style. Can't have heaven on earth with Jethro over there drunk and yelling at his kids.

I think they are. They play a long game and are fully embedded in affluent society. I think it is difficult to overestimate the illiberal danger posed by dominionists.
