House Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) on Sunday lambasted retired Army Lieutenant General Russel Honoré and his “notorious partisan bias,” a statement he put out a day before Honoré briefs House members on security failures around the Capitol attack.
While McCarthy’s fortress jab is likely a reference to the metal detectors guarding the House floor that are particularly abhorred by Republican members
But I can’t bring a full size tube of fu€king Colgate on a plane. Piss off.
Qevin, compare your stellar military record to that of Lieutenant General Russel Honoré.
That’s right, you can’t.
But you do have this:
In August 2011, McCarthy and Cantor led a group of 30 Republican members of Congress to Israel, where some members took part in a late-night swim in the Sea of Galilee(, including one member — Representative Kevin Yoder of Kansas — who swam nude. When McCarthy and Cantor later found out about the swim, they “were furious” and worried about negative news coverage, and "called a members-only meeting the next morning to reprimand the group – both those who swam and those who abstained.
In 2012, McCarthy’s office reported spending $99,000 on pastries, bottled water, and other food items, making him the highest-spending member of the House in this category
McCarthy said. “It also raises the unacceptable possibility that the Speaker desired a certain result: turning the Capitol into a fortress.”
You mean like Donnie did with the White House?
Or, it’s just a problem when security precautions might discourage your partisans from coming back for another visit.
In contrast, even after Donnie rolled out the concertina wire, BLM still showed up for its demos. But, then, they never had any intention of going inside, did they?
The party that wears it’s faith as a badge is actually the party of bad faith. Shocking. I’m mostly surprised that they haven’t gone on OAN and called the general “uppity”, although maybe it will happen later today. Asshats.
“This little peace (sic) of shit,” referring to Hawley/Cruz. Yep, I call that “brusque honesty.”
Speaking of people who recognize pieces of shit when they see them, a nice story from Al Franken:
So… both sides, right? The Republicans want to make it harder to vote, but the Democrats want to make it harder to overthrow the government with violence.
