After indulging in a stream of baseless voter fraud allegations, Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) candidly expressed his concern that attempts to get new voters involved in the Georgia runoff will “affect and change the outcome.”
Where is Rand Paul’s neighbor when you need him?
Um, that’s kind of the fucking point, dude…
It’s a thing now in the GOP to say the quiet part loud, but Rand Paul more and more reveals himself as a special kind of stupid. I honestly wonder what ails him, because the boy ain’t right.
What is it with these senatards attempting to interfere with the running of elections not in their own state?
As every Republican knows, most voters have an anti-Republican bias. The trick is to fool most voters into not voting while figuring out how to make sure Republican voters vote early and often.
The GOP haven’t cared about the quiet parts and the loud parts for several years.
“So I’m very worried Democrats will control all three branches of the government
Apparently Rand Paul thinks the three branches of the government are the White House, Senate and House, showing that his basic knowledge of our government is on a par with Fox viewers.
It’s become a bad habit.
Dang it Rand! Now everyone will know! Nice recovery, though, by Maria BatshitOhNo.
How did we fail to see the essential goodness and decency of this much-misunderstood man?
In other news regarding the GOP tilting at windmills, Sen.-elect Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala.) suggested this week that he supports a potential challenge to the electoral vote count when the House and Senate convene next month to formally affirm Biden’s victory.
“You see what’s coming. You’ve been reading about it in the House. We’re going to have to do it in the Senate.”
“Why is Georgia Secretary of State Raffensperger working so hard to add drop boxes and take other steps to make it harder for Republicans to win?”
Because that’s his job?
That he swore to do?
Under oath?
(Just a guess, mind you.)
Whenever I start to take Rand Paul seriously, I watch this rant:
Poor Ms. Hogan can hardly keep from laughing at one point.

The unspoken part is that GOP Senators do very little productive work, preferring to spend their time on pet monkey business (sorry, monkeys). Ron Johnson is a classic in this respect. He should be running a Sunburst Hack investigation 24/7. It’s ongoing and maybe the biggest security breach in decades! But no, just trumpy stuff. Paul decides to spend time on Fox bemoaning democracy. It’s what Mitch calls “business as usual.”
Paraphrased Rand Paul:
Some of these people who are typically non-voters had family in the US for over a century, but their ancestors weren’t eligible to vote, say, in 1865. Those folks should not be eligible to vote now, either. (And women? Don’t get him started.)
He’s only stupid due to saying out loud what the Republicans have been pushing for decades.
That is, make sure as few people that can vote actually are allowed to do so.
Paul Weyrich himself made the comment that: "So many of our Christians have what I call the goo-goo syndrome: good government. They want everybody to vote. I don’t want everybody to vote. Elections are not won by a majority of people, they never have been from the beginning of our country and they are not now. As a matter of fact, our leverage in the elections quite candidly goes up as the voting populace goes down."
The Republicans want only those who support them to have the right to vote. If you don’t support them, they’ll move heaven and earth to try to stop you from voting.
It doesn’t actually work that way, Senator Cartoon Name, but naturally we don’t expect much from football coaches. Still, it does seem strange that I do know how it works when I’m just some guy and you’re going to be a fucking Senator.
Well, you just know that Biden was going to have his compliant and corrupt Attorney General (whoever it might be) go after Weisselberg. Probably every other Trump Org officer and employee, too. Biden is well-known for his deranged authoritarianism and crazed, if misdirected, political retribution tendencies.
