I wouldn’t wish cancer on anyone.

Normally…

But I could make an exception for a bigly handful of GQP kooks.

“Kevin McCarthy has the ability to do the right thing — he should,”

This is true in theory. But the reality is his hands are tied unless he gets permission from the Grift-A-Lotto Godfather.

Last time I checked Qanon has become a pre existing condition within the current Republican Party.

The weight of what they have done is not there. To so many of them, it was a event, they went for a T-shirt and a few stories to tell. She isn’t the only one of the group. This is a another mental aberration in process.

God, this is genius messaging: they picked the black Rep from NY WITH THE AY-RAB NAME!!! to call out QAnon Barbie.

Wingnut heads are going to explode, Gaetz will use this as accelerant to try to further torch McCarthy, Mitch will try to hold his Senate caucus together, and Chuck & Nancy will just smile serenely and pour gas on the flames.

Genius.

Make the House Republicans vote on stripping Marjorie Taylor Greene of her committee assignments. If they don’t overwhelmingly vote to do so will reveal the GQP for what it really is: the Grand Q-anon Party.

‘Cancers Need To Be Cut Out’

I prefer to use immunotherapy whenever possible. As such, I prefer

Cancers Need To Be Eradicated

So what is the immunotherapy for MTG?
Education. Knowledge. Critical Thinking. Turning off rabid Reich-wing noooze sources.

With this being something like the fourth or fifth story on this woman today, I wonder if it’s time to start starving her of oxygen in the media. I wonder what would happen if just no one covered any of her nonsense for a week or so.

She’s doing this to get her name out there. Why are we helping her?

Checkpoint inhibitors? Take the brakes off the crazy and let her freak fly. She’d be in a jail cell by the end of the week.

When is someone going to take the tact of would you let this woman care for your children? Her words condemn her so easily. Are you comfortable with her as your neighbor? Are you sure you want her in your presence? If you can say no to any of those, why is she in a position of leadership that can affect your life?

A quote from Mitt Romney we can’t have both,cant make this stuff up.

““Our big tent is not large enough to both accommodate conservatives and kooks,”

Greene hit back when she declared in a tweet later on Monday that “the real cancer” for the GOP “is weak Republicans who only know how to lose gracefully.”

Basically, she’s a sore loser and acts like that’s the way to be. It’s not ok to lose, and when you do lose, never accept it, always call the other side a cheater no matter what. She was probably not a very popular kid. She’s pathetic.

Sadly, we all know that herd immunity is Republicans’ preferred approach.
