McCarthy Announces Move To Censure Waters Amid GOPers’ Faux Outrage | Talking Points Memo

No better reason that that one, right there.

Three words for McCarthy:

Shut your mouth!

Does that carry as much weight as the Hatch Act?

The prospect of that moron being Speaker should scare the shit out of everyone to vote in the midterms and make sure we keep the House.

No, he doesn’t. Just showing the folks back home how he’s trying to slap down an uppity black woman.

I think they;re still in former-guy mode, where manufactured outrage was monetized and counted towards GDP.

I don’t understand why they can’t throw Gosar out for HIS speech at the Capital Riot. I don’t know if Gohmert also spoke; I am fairly sure MTG did not.
BUT I will also say that there WAS no rioting after Maxie spoke.

I guess she has a better class of ‘listeners.’

Do not trifle with Apostle Maxine.

“This is who they are and this is how they act. And I’m not going to be bullied by them.”

PREEEEEEEACH!!

When it comes to the actual serious things they’re presumably supposed to do, the key thing to always be aware of is their profound unseriousness. They aren’t even trying. All they do is perform, in the sense of playacting, the silliest, most absurd culture-wars histrionics they can think of. It’s all they know how to do, but then again it’s all the rank and file asks.

Let me know when she starts holding rallies to rile up her followers to start attacking police stations, then follows along with the news of said attack.

Actually, as we speak – well, type, I guess – McQarthy is preparing a statement and resolution wherein he asks the GQP Qauqus to censure Gaetz for his (presumed) rape and sex trafficking activities.

I swear, I crack myself up sometimes.

Knock yourselves the fuck right out, assholes. And then go hang from a rope while waiting for it to happen.

I’ve known toddlers who knew better than to try to pull that trick.

Hi! To find out what I can do, say @discobot display help.

There is no cause more important than fund raising off angry white male fear of black women…

Ohhhhh, Kevin… there is nothing stupider than an old white man going on the record and publicly telling any woman, let alone a black woman1, to shut the hell up. This will not end well for you. Congratulations on handing Rep. Waters a bigger megaphone than she already had.


1. I’m not gonna call her ‘angry’, though, because at this point, if you aren’t angry about all of the bullshit, I just don’t know what the fuck is wrong with you. Or you’re a Republican office-holder who depends on the corruption to keep their revenue streams… and their job, since those are two different things.

The republican list of Speakers is NOT impressive. Boehner, Ryan…McCarthy fits right in with them. Feckless, spineless, weak, opportunists who wouldn’t know how to lead if given implicate instructions. Keep the House!

McCarthy is useless as tits on a bull. It’s all he has…stir the pot and please don’t notice that I’m an empty shell with nothing of substance to work toward to help this country move forward.

Hakeem Jeffries rips Kevin McCarthy for hypocrisy for attacking Maxine Waters: "Lauren Boebert is a mess. Matt Gaetz is a mess. Marjorie Taylor Greene is a mess. Clean up your mess, Kevin. Sit this one out."
