Ummmmm….I live in a farm…in Eastern Washington. Of course I’m an uninformed rube.

People like me built this great country. We’re the doers.

Better an uninformed rube than some Russel Brand watching, Putin loving, pencil pushing, Western Washington tankie.

Who does the farm work?

I take care of the NWF certified wildlife sanctuary, vegetable garden, and tree farm. We cash-lease out the alfalfa to a local Trump supporting lad.

No. You're simply uninformed.

Do you know anything about chinch bugs? Or manganese?

Didn’t think so.

Nice! But what about the weed ?

Our wells are low out-put so it’s only dry land crops other than the vegetable garden for the family.

Chinch bugs. Pfft. Now manganese I know about.

Speaking of spewing vitriol and hate ...

Jordan out as speaker candidate in secret ballot after top ally warned death threats "will continue"

"Why is your husband such a pig?" the call began before descending into a profane, vitriolic threat. "Why would he get on TV and make an a—hole of himself? Because he’s a deep-state prick? Because he doesn’t represent the people? So what we’re gonna do is we’re going f—king follow you all over the place. We’re gonna be up your ass f—king nonstop. We are now Antifa."

The caller went on to deride the congressman using a homophobic slur and restated their vow to follow the wife "to every appointment you have, everything you f—king do" and bombard her with messages after claiming to have doxxed her.

"Jim Jordan or more conservative or you’re going to be f—king molested like you can’t ever imagine," the caller concluded. "And again, non-violently. You won’t go to the beauty parlor. You must be a b—h to marry a f—king ugly motherf—er like that."

Holy fuck. You have no clue who sent those. Could be Klam trolling and you bought it like Bill Kristol.

I wouldn't put anything past that rascal - you better not let him find out how to contact your wife

[SeattleGriz]

Huh. Obama was on site when his chef drowned. You get the idea the media's job is to protect people.

[SeattleGriz]

You can't make this up. Mitt Romney admits in his latest book that he supported impeachment of Trump, but had no idea it was about Trump asking Zelensky about Hunter, Joey Rotten and Burisma.

How did someone like Romney not know about Burisma?

‘5 Families’ and Factions Within Factions: Why the House GOP Can’t Unite

The speaker saga has exposed the dynamics that have made the House GOP nearly impossible to govern. There are too many conflicting ideologies, too many unyielding personalities and too much bad blood for the party to unite behind any one person.
...
Republicans have made no secret of their divisions. They openly refer to their various factions as The Five Families — a reference to warring Mafia crime families. They consist of the right-wing House Freedom Caucus, the conservative Republican Study Committee, the business-minded Main Street Caucus, the mainstream Republican Governance Group and the bipartisan Problem Solvers Caucus.

Isn’t MaineJeff around 40? Anyone heard from him recently?

Did they keep the motion to vacate? Can a moderate Republican or a Democrat cut Johnson off at the knees like Gaetz did to McCarthy?

The irony would be so rich. As would watching Gaetz and his ilk whine about the injustice of it.

MTG is antisemitic?

Miss Jewish Space Lasers who blamed California wildfires on lasers funded by the Rothschilds and was a speaker at Nick Fuentes' America First Political Action Conference?

Is there any tinfoil left for me? Have MAGAt yahoos bought it all out like toilet paper at the start of COVID?

Took me awhile to find her deleted post, but she did not specifically say 'Jewish Space Laser's. That's you're butthurt TDS going into overdrive. Simply because she mentioned the Rothschild's doesn't make her antisemitic...it doesn't make her particularly worldly either, but you're putting words in her mouth.

This sounds just like the "very fine people" claim.

WTF are you talking about? I literally posted that she "blamed California wildfires on lasers funded by the Rothschilds".

You're tDS type II has gone into overdrive. You're so used to defending trump for beating around the bush without coming out saying what he really means so he can appeal to bigoted MAGAt yahoos without upsetting rational people who do more than just identify as christian that you refuse to see the connections.

Defending marge (or boebert or gaetz) is no better than defending aoChe, omar or tlaib. They're two sides of the same whacko coin.

Okay. So maybe I didn't read very far into your post.

You still have TDS though.

I will freely admit that I can't stand trump. I'm fine if that means that I have tDS type I.

Can you say the same about your adulation for trump and your tDS type II? And don't give me some BS answer about how you don't really like him but you like that he has shaken up the establishment/swamp. If that were the case, you wouldn't spend nearly as much time defending him and the other MAGAt yahoos.

Oh, I love Trump. It's listening to him speak for more than 45 seconds that I can't stand. Just don't like how he repeats himself over and over. I got the point the first time.

My love for Trump comes from watching how the establishment recoils in horror at him, while privately and protectedly performing the same shit they accuse him of. They're just pissed he's an outsider and political rookie that bluntly says the same shit they do, but without the weasel words.

Hillary Clinton is a prime example.

Also, Trump actually had an economic plan for America, whereas I haven't heard one candidate outside Trump tell us their plan for America, nor enact it.

I hear everyone bitch about wanting DC politics to change...but not via Trump. Well, tough shit. If the environment wasn't full of brokered deals and deep money, you won't see it ever happen. Trump is the only chance and hopefully he's enough to scare the career politicians into at least trying to listen to the people they represent.

Lastly, when you see a whole establishment of people bitch about a business man who actually got the economy rolling, you tend to root for that guy.

Hillary is trump's sister by another mister. Peas in a pod.

trump had an economic plan for America? What happened to that plan when the shit hit the fan with COVID? His plan (and his leadership) couldn't handle adversity. He's a good time Charlie who wants to take credit for the good and blame others for the bad. Good leaders can lead in good times and bad.
