Shortly after publishing its, uh, scoop, on Wednesday, the Federalist claimed in a triumphant follow-up post that the Jan. 6 committee had “admitted” to “doctoring” the text by … adding a period.

Or maybe something that rhymes with “scoop”.

:poop:

This cannot be good but, again, I defer to the legal eagles here to define just how damning this is.

One sends “ideas” to others either because they agree or they think it is beyond-the-pale.
I doubt Gym had sarcasm in mind.

Of course Gym was doing all he could to advance the Big Lie. I hope this has a bunch of other congress critters squirming and outing themselves to mitigate what else we’re going to hear.

Much of GOP World’s reaction to being fingered as coup friendly is “Yeah, so what, is there something wrong with that?”

“Hey, Meadows, you know what would be even cooler? Is if Trump declared martial law and confiscated all the ballots that went against him. Now I’m not saying this is something he should definitely do, but wouldn’t it be cool?”

Wow, so not that “conservatives” are concerned about accurate full statements, can we relook at the 2nd Amendment?

Scalia conveniently ignored the first 1/2 of the amendment.

I won. I called it on the Hive Pool!

But I will split the dual pack dental floss pack that goes to the winner. Only fair right? Its cool mint as well.

(Speaking of, anyone ever floss with a mint flavored floss and then rubbed their eye? Word to the wise, don’t do it. Not quite as bad as sneezing immediately after chomping down on a couple of Altoids. That is a see god moment.)

All it takes is a teenager crossing state lines looking for an excuse to kill some bystanders with a gun someone else bought for him.

I’m certainly not a legal eagle or any kind of eagle, particularly, but Jordan is saying Pence should nullify the votes of entire states based on his personal opinion, thus stealing a national election. Seems fairly damning to me.
