Huh? GOP Rep. Gohmert Introduces New Conspiracy Into Congressional Record | Talking Points Memo

What do a Ukrainian steel magnate, Puerto Rico and the Le Pain Quotidien a block from the White House all have in common? They were all a part of the latest fringe conspiracy theory to make it into the congressional record on Tuesday.

Louie Louie, oh no no no, me gotta go

And this is why nothing gets done in Congress.

The lesser foot soldiers are throwing seeds into the whirlwind to create diversions. To try to suck press time and already scandal-weary Americans into “I can’t keep track” mode which is nicely fertile ground for bothsiderism.

Poor bastard has never been the same since he had aspersions cast against his asparagus.

It seems like the RepubliCONS will manufacture anything and everything and spread conspiracies…from Benghazi to Uranium One to Pizzagate to Ukrainegate all just to damage political opponents, past and present.

In this case, it seems the RepubliCONS want to muddy the Urkrainegate Probe thru Clinton Foundation biggest donor Pinchuk who by the way also donated to Trump Foundation. Note that the Trump Foundation was found to have fraudulent tax practice = self-dealing!

For Republicans, the Clinton Foundation offers endless opportunities to cast Hillary Clinton as too cozy with the world’s elites. The multimillion-dollar charity has ties to governments and the ultra-wealthy around the globe.

With the entire GOP taking stupid pills every day it sadly papers over what made Louie special. You hate to see that one special thing get taken away, even if stupidity is the one special thing.

I gave up on the convoluted conspiracy mess this goober is trying to push as well. There’s always so much crazy to begin with going on with this moron, why waste my energy?

I’m glad that Gohmert is so concerned about closed-door meetings between shady former-Soviet-bloc figures and US government officials. Now, he’s probably also interested in investigating this:

I guess I was assuming ol’ Louie had been voted out of office (since Texas is beginning to shade from red to purple) because he hasn’t been in the news in a very long time. But I realize now that he’s just up against more competition in the stupidity/conspiracy/outrageousness field then he ever was in the past.

TL;DR - “Ghomert fed red meet to the white Christian nationalists proving that the browns are all in cahoots to obliterate the whites.”

When I read that Gohmert had come up with a new conspiracy, I just figured the Hamburglar would somehow be implicated. Or maybe Wiley Coyote. Because that’s the perilous world that Louis Gohmert is protecting us from.
