“Trying to put a ribbon on a sham process doesn’t make it less of a sham,” Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH)

Mr Jordan, that’s called ‘projection’ you asshole. All your self righteous protesting against a hard core constitutional process is the absolute sham.

Fucking hypocrite.

Passed along party lines - that’ll be enough for Fox News to call the whole thing partisan and the WH to decide they won’t cooperate.

More of the same.

Now, let’s get the facts of the case out into the public domain. It’s time. Bring it on.

Any Democrat who voted against this should be immediately Primaried and have all Democratic monetary support withdrawn.

NO EXCEPTIONS.

This is not a Political issue, it is about the RULE OF LAW.

If they can’t figure that out, get the hell out of the Democratic Party. NOW!
