Discussion: Impeachment Fever! House Hardliners Find A New Way To Buck GOP Leadership

Deplorable people cannot LIVE without a convenient scapegoat for their impotent rage.
They can’t touch Obama, so they go after the public servants under him.
I think “Despicable” is a better term for them.

I do believ that is called INSANITY

The general point is well-made. A correction: the issue did not deal with 501©(3) organizations which are generally legitimate charities (except when in the hands of Donald Trump) but 501©(4) organizations which are basically a workaround to get tax-exempt status to organizations promoting political ideology. I recall that Karl Rove was a big promoter of this perversion of the IRS Code . Lawrence O’Donnell did good reporting on the subject back in the day. In my view, the real scandal is that ANY organization whose business is partisan advocacy is afforded tax exempt status. This is the real magic act: getting outlets like TPM to assume in their reporting that 501©(4)s are legitimate and focus all the attention on the nonsense of the IRS Commissioner’s risk of impeachment.

Did I say ©(3)? Yup, looks like I did.

Every morning the Freedom Caucus members wake up, kneel by the side of the bed, and pray: “Lord, what can I do today to make it impossible for anyone to engage in governance in this wonderful country that you founded.”

Let Freedom Ring eh.

Lets just cut to the chase and call this group the, Gerrymander Caucus, because that is exactly what it is.
If they weren’t guaranteed entrenchment by being gerrymandered into guaranteed seats, they couldn’t get elected in the local town hall.

Is Ryan useless or what. Not one of his declarations upon taking office have been kept.
He is in deeper than Boener ever was, wait-what?

‘Pushed by Fleming and Huelskamp’

Ummmm…Huelskamp got his ass primaried in August by a MODERATE Republican who went around the Kansas 4th asking the farmers, “What’s this guy gotten done for you? He’s not even on the ag committee anymore! Before he quit, Boehner did Ryan a Solid and threw him off the edge of the world! Metaphorically speaking”

Fleming is next when he loses this one. Not ‘IF’, "WHEN.’

Cowards and traitors!!!

They impeach because they can. The opposite of government isn’t freedom, it’s anarchy, so this is thus the Anarchy Caucus.
