At a certain point after following politics closely, you move away from reacting to events and begin to focus on proactively predicting events. You start to develop a mental tuning fork that finds the frequency of DC compromise. In essence, you begin to assemble data and take notes on visible activity that indicates compromise.
Those notes then becomes predictive data and you keep it visible for later reference when trying to review motives and motivations for the DC schemes. Generally, if you keep close watch and take good notes, you will catch around 80% of the public datapoints that highlight the path of the political compromise. Things that make other things make sense.
The origin of MTG’s dark motives and her individual compromise originates in the timeline of her marital breakup, sexual exploits with former Speaker Kevin McCarthy, and eventually divorce. MTG, Lauren Boebert and Sean Hannity all have this origination timeline in common. I’m not sure what originates the Deep State compromise with Massie yet, when that initial touch took place, but I do know it goes back much further in the timeline of his congressional tenure.
Thomas Massie now joins with MTG in calling for the removal of Speaker Mike Johnson.
Let there be absolutely no doubt, removing Johnson right now is giving the speaker gavel to Democrats. This Machiavellian way to remove Donald Trump has always appeared to be the Deep State insurance policy.
When the U.S. Supreme Court reinstituted Donald Trump on the federal election ballots of the five leftist states who removed him, the high court noted that disqualifying a person from presidential office could only be done by congress, not by the individual states.
If the Democrats take control of the House, disqualifying Donald Trump from federal office will be the purpose of their first legislative act. They already hold the Senate. They will do this. Thomas Massie knows this.
So, ask yourself, who exactly is controlling the action of Thomas Massie; remember, he’s the former endorser of Ron DeSantis on behalf of the Sea Island multinationals (banks). Does the question answer itself?
Accept things as they are, not as you would prefer them to be.
When we *think* we have found the bottom of the corrupt and conniving state within the DC system… Pause, have a nice cup of coffee, then remind ourselves we’ll never find the bottom of this level of corruption; it’s ‘effen bottomless.
*AHEM*… Gnome’ sayin?
WASHINGTON DC – […] Massie’s decision was not well received during the meeting, according to several members in the room. And Republicans across the conference, including some members of the Freedom Caucus, quickly pushed back on the idea of booting Johnson, noting it would spark chaos without a clear successor — a repeat of the House’s nightmare in October.
[…] Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.) said after Tuesday’s conference meeting that he still thinks they can avoid a vote to terminate Johnson’s speakership. But one GOP lawmaker, granted anonymity to speak candidly, was less optimistic: “Folks are very discouraged. … We are screwed.”
The simmering rebellion isn’t a total surprise after Johnson on Monday evening announced his plans to send four separate bills to the floor — on aid to Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan, plus a fourth with other miscellaneous provisions. That sparked pushback from Greene and some other conservatives, who have long opposed attempts to send further cash to Ukraine. And that opposition to Johnson could grow as the week goes on.
His first major hurdle on that package will be getting it through the Rules Committee, where hardliners of his conference hold three GOP seats. But he’s expected to succeed there; while conservatives could block the bill if they unite with Democrats on the panel, Rep. Ralph Norman (R-S.C.) said on Tuesday that he will vote for the rule, which sets the parameters of the House’s floor debate, in committee.
But it gets tougher from there. To even bring the package up on the floor, Johnson will need a majority of the House. And given conservative opposition he’s almost certainly going to need Democratic support. Typically, the minority party does not help on so-called rule votes, but some have signaled they’d make an exception for Ukraine aid. (read more)
MTG’s dark motives and her individual compromise originates in the timeline of her marital breakup, sexual exploits with former Speaker Kevin McCarthy,
Wait….. McCarthy isn’t gay?
His penchant for the DC “sex parties” probably makes him swing both ways.
He was on Faux news last night. All I kept thinking was snake in the grass, leaving early.
The Republicans could have booted Gallagher to force a special election but they once again proved its one big Party and we aren’t a part of it.
I asked my WI Rep to back expulsion. It’s wholly UnAmerican to leave Gallagher’s district unrepresented for 1/3 of his term.
Obama’s not gay. But his boyfriends are.
Whores aren’t picky as long as the bill gets paid.
Sorry to be crass about it, but it’s true.
BOOM!
I don’t think MTG needs any “dark motive.” She is our AOC. AOC isn’t fully aware of the things they have her doing and saying. I doubt MTG is fully aware either. She is effective because she speaks to our outrage in exactly the same way AOC speaks to their base.
We know AOC was literally auditioned for the role. What do we know of MTG? I don’t know much… maybe someone has evidence she’s genuine? Even if she is, her rage politics are effective in many ways and is suitable for manipulation by the dark motives without her realizing.
“She is our AOC. AOC isn’t fully aware of the things they have her doing and saying. I doubt MTG is fully aware either.”
They, like so many in Washington, and throughout the nation, are painfully unaware of how information is compartmentalized and the blissful ignorance that follows.
McCarthy is married and has two kids.
And that proves what beyond once active sperm?
So was that Olympian guy who is now parading as a woman.
I don’t think his wife was there when he got installed as speaker. I found it curious of the time. His kids were there.
Who did the chest-feeding, Kevin or Frank Luntz ??
MTGernst
Perverse folks swing both ways… kink is kink after all
The D.C. Uniparty swings both ways….they like boys and men!!! FJBLGB!!!!
https://dailyhaymaker.com/is-mtg-the-new-nee-nee/
I do not know how to post photos into our messages. This article shows the classic photo of MTG gazing adoringly into KMac’s eyes on the house floor.
No. He was in an affair which torpedoed the NC female House member’s political career during Trump’s first run for president.
TRUE! That is so very often forgotten!
If Frank Luntz didn’t know about McCarthy and MTG…..boy is he gonna be mad at Kevvo !!!!!
There is no Republican Party. Are we all clear on that finally?
Crystal
There’s 1 Republican, and those that follow him.
Trump and most of us are Nationalists
I am a Christian Nationalist, per the correct definition of that moniker (not the Commie AG’s twisted definition).
Most definitely. It’s been a hard to pull to swallow. The past 8 years have proven it beyond a shadow of a doubt.
Hard pill to swallow…
“Hard to pull to swallow” is actually accurate. Sometimes a mis-word tells the truth. What has to be swallowed is much, much bigger than a pill. Its a very “hard pull.”
Kinda’ like those foreign a-h013 “protestors” pulled out of the streets by their collars in a video someone posted yesterday.
There is no United States Of America any longer. Are we clear on that?
We The People, of these United States are still here.
We are only facing an occupying power that still parades around with the trappings of a legitimate government.
It is not over for us yet. Decisions will be reached with a steely gaze.
Yes, it is over in terms of salvaging what was. We need to think in terms of what we can salvage and create anew, out of the box. There is no saving the ‘USA.’ I’m sorry to be a killjoy but we either face the reality of the situation or die completely.
There is one, but it doesn’t represent its members.
I’ve been clear on that for years.
“sexual exploits with former Speaker Kevin McCarthy” ? That is news for me. How sad.
Swamp Rats breed.
Searched on McCarthy and MTG and only get the cry baby story (which I am guessing is fake) on Getz and a 17 yr old.
Nothing surprises me anymore from that DC sewer.
President Trump must be onto MTG and Johnson by now.
I’ll tell you…that last picture of Hakeem is frightening. It’s like looking at Baal himself.
He said publicly last week that he’s sticking with Johnson, even though he considers MTG a good friend.
He’s pragmatic like that. He understands the pitfalls ahead.
IF they have such a great plan, what is it? Who is next?
It doesn’t matter. They just want to hand the Democrats control of the House.
Personally, I doubt it.
It was talked about far and wide when it was happening.
Link(s) please?
Agree 100% and this really pisses me off. For me MTG and her corrupt motives became clear during the McCarthy removal conversation. Her complete 180 now confirmed it.
There was no 180. Merely a revelation of deceit.
There are so many ways to be controlled. Personally, while I’m not proud of everything in my past, there’s nothing there I wouldn’t be OK with becoming public.
However, then they can just move to the Flynn method and threaten your kids, either with prosecution and jail, or worse.
They can humilate you, jail you, prosecute you, bankrupt you, suicide you, resist-arrest-kill you, and do all of those things to your loved ones. I’m mentally prepared to accept all that and more for my Savior, but I’m still wrapping my head around the potential need to do that for my country.
We are at the point where it could happen for posting a meme. It could happen to Sundance for operating this bastion of freedom. It’s no longer “this can’t happen here”. It is and already has.
What the “powers that be” don’t realize is, by creating all these cancers there will be a ton of Stage 4’s past all hope of treatment who may decide a noble end to their lives.
Do the PTB even care…? It is the Uniparty, after all.
YES.
And all of this took place after a half dozen middle of the night “emergency” SWATs at MTGs home in Georgia.
I think Kevvy Boy made her a deal she could not refuse. Protection for Protection. He’s gone and she’s without her wingman.
How many of those SWAT’s were spontaneous? What a smokescreen.
Very plausible. Truth is indeed stranger than fiction. Hell must be echoing with the rictuses of Stalin, Hitler, and their ilk.
The loudmouths will feign ignorance, as they always do, if given the opportunity.
They’re the deceivers. They love sucking on microphones.
failure theater, they are all acting (even MTG). they already ceded the votes to render such actions impossible
(not even worth the effort of capital letters or complete sentences)
The Uniparty doing its thing, destroying this country bit by bit.
Sad that it has come to this.
Thomas Massie I don’t get. MIT graduate, build his own house, raises cattle, loves guns, family man. He was able to retire after selling several patents. He doesn’t need corporate money. I thought he was the voice of conservative reason. I certainly didn’t understand the Desantis endorsement. Like most politicians, he became poisoned either by the power or was compromised in some way. (Probably the latter). Terribly disappointed in this man.
“He was able to retire after selling several patents.”
At least he didn’t do it$ through finger painting.
@Jimbo, just being a MIT graduate doesn’t make a person wise. How many times have we been talked down to by PhD’s on everything from Environment to Transgenderism to even a certain Flu from Wuhan, and every-time they’ve been proven wrong.
As for Massie’s motives, they’re irrelevant as his actions lead to the destruction of MAGA and the Forgotten Man and Woman.
It’s part of his resume, not the whole resume.
Jonathan Gruber of ObamaCare fame is an MIT graduate.
He’s a Libertarian.
A politician by any other name …….. still smells just like a politician.
Which, BTW, still makes him a dirty, lying, manipulative and scummy politician…there are way too many “libertarians” who do NOT have liberty and personal freedom as priorities. (And many are whack-a-doo climate change believers)
Like the Koch’s, Massie is a libertarian. They cannot get elected as libertarians so most run as “republican’ts.”
They have a strange platform. Rail against gubmint spending but take full advantage of it when importing foreign labor at taxpayer expense.
They’re fake conservatives.
The ends justify the means
That’s code for situational ethics, aka ethically barren…
I despise them as much as communist demoncraps & republican’t liars & thieves.
If the Koch’s were Libertarians they wouldn’t push for $100 Billion in foreign aid to Israel and Ukraine!!!!
They are simply a combination of weird Zionist…Billionaire Bolsheviks!
The problem with libertarians is that they’re self serving 💰💵 hoors above all else.
Perhaps it’s not something to do with him personally, but a close family member he thinks he’s protecting, which is at the heart of the unknown that can explain his participation?
Now he got a power position by joining MTG.
You know what power does to weasels.
“Like most politicians, he became poisoned either by the power or was compromised in some way. (Probably the latter).”
I believe that was what Sundance was referring to with the photo of Massey with DeSantis’ hitman Christina Pushaw.
Disgusting.
I don’t think Massie has been compromised; he realized that Johnson will turn and send money to Ukraine and, as you know, Massie is dead set against that as well as other reckless spending.
I know Massie is against reckless spending? I know he’s part of the machine and an opportunist. Much else, I know him by his votes, which tend to suck.
Representative Thomas Massie is a Constitutionalist and has a voting record to back that up.
https://thenewamerican.com/freedom-index/legislator/m001184/
FISA…..total control tool of the IC.
Massey got his widdle feelings hurt by President Trump. That was his turning point.
Then he stupidly drank the DecptiCON RON! b.s. Koolaid like an I D I O T !
That part just goes to prove the MIT bit is irrelevant.
That and the fact that he doesn’t know how to read a room. President Trump is the most popular and consequential leader, most possibly of all time. There was NO WAY he was not going to win this a THIRD TIME!
They had to really work hard to tamp down all the votes he got in 2020. It must’ve been M A S S I V E !
You fell for that crap?
It looks to me like he finds the tight dress, short skirt, bare legs, etc., etc., of the blonde he’s pictured with more than a little titillating. Nor would I rule out the possibility of her hand resting somewhere beyond the dictates of business casual–like her outfit. 🙄
Some of us are slower to mature than others.
Frank Luntz could not be reached for comment.
It’s so obvious to anyone who cares to look.
The question is, what can we do about it? As I said yesterday, Biden will announce he’s not running before the ink is dry on this “big f-ing deal” piece of legislation and we will see Mooch or Newsom, or a Mooch/Newsom ticket.
My one change is that the GOPe won’t fund their own candidate, so I think we’ll probably see Ramaswamy step up and try and grab the MAGA lightning.
We are so screwed.
He who has the gold will win. It is written in the stars.
I believe that trying to remove Johnson could be dissasterous. With several Rs leaving congress b4 the election, our margin is paper-thin. It IS possible that a Dem could take control as speaker b4 the election IF a removal of Johnson is successful.
We are just 6.5 months away from the 2024 election. IF Johnson should be removed, wait till after the election. To do it now MAKES the Rs appear unstable, unable to lead.
Even if Trump wins, he does NEED an R controlled house and senate bc he can likely get through legislation IF that occurs. If the Dems control both/either the house or senate, Trump will be constantly impeached… and most of his policies will be impossible to get thru congress. That’s simply REALITY. He will still have trouble with an R controlled congress too but far less trouble.
How does a Dem take over from Johnson, if Republicans are still the majority?
Would Johnson leave congress?
RINOs and an off stage vote/coercion.
Exactly. And, the fact that Rs/rinos did leave Congress b4 the election, deliberately reducing the R margin is scary. They were most likely blackmailed to do that. . . and they are globalists/rinos.
If Trump wins, I fear that the leftist/fascists will try to force the election result into the House, with a very slim margin of R votes to secure Trump’s legitimate win.
And… what did dems do, non-stop, when Rs replaced McCarthy? They painted Rs as incapable of leading. They would just create another talking point.
Doesn’t the gavel still go to a Republican?
Why wouldn’t Pres. Trump be influencing MTG to keep Johnson in place?
Pres. Trump and MTG are simpatico…I thought…
Yeah, the McCarthy thing threw me for a loop, too.
Didn’t you just observe President Trump hold his nose and have a joint presser with Johnson? He’s fully aware of the danger of removing Johnson as speaker at this point. What would his thoughts be on MTG right about now?
“ Pres. Trump and MTG are simpatico…I thought…”
Well I hope some Trump team people are reading Sundance’s post today.
Yeah, well, MTG the inside trader/traitor is reliably scummy – she’s the instigator because she thinks she still has enough chops with her voter base to survive this scam.
At least it leaves her image as a gym rat intact. It’s those arms that scare me.
You left out her “man stride”.
It does not automatically go to the majority party; seems that way because they vote along party lines. There will be a full House vote after the Republicans decide who they want to put up for Speaker.
Remember in the last go-around that representative from Nebraska floated the trial balloon of getting with the Democrats to select a more moderate Speaker? They could go that route, but it would be Jeffries not some “moderate”.
We saw the shift with the DeSimps who are probably the surviving campaign people and their sock accounts their new goal is a Trump loss no matter the cost. So we know all that strategy is coming from DeSantis himself he needs Trump to lose otherwise ’28 is a no go for him. The Bush Conservatives that DeSantis represent need Trump to lose because 4 years of RNC control will basically remove the structural advantages they’ve built into the party for themselves. Trump winning plus his chosen MAGA successor winning in ’28 will probably complete the GOP realignment. At that point Con Inc, the Bush conservatives (and the Reagan skinsuit they’ve been using for cover) get shown the door.
I think the Bushes will be around for a very long time. They are a very fertile bunch and have developed quite a large political bullpen.
I see the guy that arranged the murder of JFK is in that picture.
Same room they laid Kennedy out in too.
Hypocrisy, Thy Name Is Bush
The Bush name, be it people or beer are forever on my blacklist.
Yet they’re now unelectable in Texas, and they needed Trump to get their guy in FL elected in 2018.
Not disagreeing other than their power ain’t what it used to be – more and more Texans & Floridians awake. The last Bush run got squashed. You’ve seen them turn their collective ire on Ken Paxton. But he’s still standing.
UGH that picture turns my stomach.
It’s time to stop looking for change with in the party. Change will happen when the proles get involved.
Is the plan to disqualify Trump before the election? Or impeachment? If the latter then the VP is the key to the whole puzzle. Put someone more of a nightmare for the Evil One than Trump.
Yes. That is the plan as SD, and many, many others, have laid out. If he is removed and a speaker vote is held, Jeffries will take it on a subsequent vote; they only need less than a handful of Republicans to vote with them, and they clearly have the votes.
Then, in compliance with the recent Trump ballot banning decision by the SCOTUS saying Congress is the only one who can limit who goes on a ballot due to Violation of the 14th amendment, they will move to take that already SCOTUS compliant action. They would have the votes in the House and Senate, of course. This would remove President Trump from all ballots, and render his candidacy over.
It would seem to me in this scenario TPTB are banking on a docile and complacent citizenry.
The data would tend to support them, does it not?
I wonder how many from the Sea Island cabal think the American people will continue to be docile?
There is no way they win and business keeps going if there is the kind of destruction we had in 20. Sooner or later some adults need to step up and bring sanity into this. But history shows the Evil One thought crucifying Christ would give him world. But maybe the answer is in that story. God used Evil to his Glory ~ Thanks be to God!
So you believe some of the RINOs will give up their seats on select committees? Seems to may they may vote with dems on globalist issues but they are not dumb enough to trust a single dem , especially a dem speaker. Retaining Republican control of the house gives RINOs more power. Haven’t the RINOs already had the chance to cross over if there #1 goal was to take Trump down? JMO but I am open to where my thinking is going wrong.
GOPe business model is to be in the minority and sell votes to Democrats so that legislation can be tagged bipartisan. GOPe doesn’t want the responsibility that goes with actually governing, so committee chairs don’t matter too much.
Another axiom of U.S. politics: Democrats love being in power, Republicans love being in office.
“They” ( uniparty), will try to bump president Trump off before election.
Including MTG and Massie…
Otherwise they would not act like this at this moment.
Sorry but I haven’t totally bought Massie and MTG want another Biden term. And it would be another Biden term cause PT is the only one to beat the Dems with their cheat.If that is the case you gotta add in the TX guy who was also DeSantis supporter.
The plan is a Compact between the Crooked States to give their Electors to the National Popular Vote candidate, there is no such thing s the National Popular Vote, so, as usual, they will still decide and tell AP to DECLARE whoever they choose as the winner. The same as they did in 2020. And AP will proudly comply, because they too are paid wh0r3$:
National Popular Vote Compact is their plan:

I posted on it yesterday.
They want to disqualify Trump before the election.
I want to be someplace else if/ when the Democrats take control of the House & Senate.
Then, they declare Donald John Trump ineligible for the Presidency.
Get our House in order (as Representatives of us) or we will get it in order for you.
THE DAY OF THE VENGEANCE OF OUR GOD IS NEAR (youtube.com)
A total apostate!
Her opening prayer is barking out orders to God. Wow.
They say judge a book by its cover but at this point congress is a comic strip. As Pilate asks ‘what is truth?”
Yea this cements that there are not 2 parties anymore, one federal dictatorship.
RIP USA, and what it stood for. Anyone else agree it’s time for a complete succession from the district of corruption ?
Speaker Johnson has been a complete failure, so it appears to me that Jeffries is already Speaker of the House without the title!
It’s difficult to fathom just where the right course of action is. Are there any in DC who are NOT compromised? Is there not one good person in DC who is acting on honorable motives? Is there an honest person in DC who is not compromised and who tells the truth?
Should DC be saved or razed?
For the good of the planet, DC should be returned to natural swamp land and the non-native life transferred to Guantanamo Bay.
‘Speaker Johnson has been a complete failure, so it appears to me that Jeffries is already Speaker of the House without the title!’ — JannB
Yes. And that being the case, Speaker Jeffries could rally the same Uniparty coalition of RINOs and DemonRats who just sold us down the river on FISA reauthorization to declare PDJT an ineligible insurrectionist.
Who cares whether Mikey ‘Mitt’ Johnson survives as Speaker? He’s selling us out. Attention, Rep. Marcus Junius Brutus: you are being paged for a floor vote.
Sundance, thank you.
Keeping the faith and the prayer line open.
Always MAGA 👊👊🇺🇸🇺🇸🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️
Has Johnson been blackmailed?
I used to like Massie.
They’ve all been compromised in one way or another. No difference between the two. I don’t have enough confidence in any of the rest to even suggest a replacement. Although the Speaker position doesn’t require that person to be a member of Congress. There may lie the answer – how about Trump for Speaker?!
I was watching “Shogun” the other day, and the main character said something interesting to his son that’s been percolating in my mind ever since, something about how to handle politics.
The father was upset that the son was viewing the world as allies and enemies. The father said, you can’t trust allies or enemies; you can only trust motives. And later in the show, it proves the point where a general under the father was not a “trusted ally.” The general was motivated by ambition and personal gain. The father ended up using those motives and made the general’s motives align with the father’s agenda.
I think this is where we’re at. We’ve been trying to put our faith in “allies” in Congress, and we keep getting burned. I think we need to focus more on motives.
This is a wise, insight. Thanks for bringing it up. It is the opposite, yet, same outcome tactic as blackmail. This is the more strategic and on the “up and up” way versus blackmail.
Both result in alignment with the manipulator’s objectives; but one in a way that makes it a clear choice for the target’s best interest, the other by brute raw force.
Similarly, back in 2020 I had decided that in a contest between Hillary and Jeb, I’d take mercenary Hillary. I figured if she could be bought, that meant WE could buy her too, for the right price, or the right contribution to the Clinton Foundation.
To add to this, focus on outcomes and not personalities.
So does DJT know this and just let’s MTG close for politics? I honestly cannot keep track of all this…MTG was exiled from Bannon’s war room now she is on there daily…I am so disappointed in Bannon and Kash. You want there to be SOME good guys right in this movie? Other than DJT are there any? who are they? Sigh. Stopping pretending sucks. LOL
There are no good guys, I share your frustration. That has been the biggest eye-opening part of the last 11 years on my “stop pretending” and informational journey here at the Treehouse. It still short circuits my brain, as raw numbers would seem to dictate there had to be SOME, but alas, looks like the last 100 years was more than enough time to ensure those people were crushed early or simply never had access/even knew where the doors were to sneak through to get in to positions of power in the first place.
My rep is Ann Paulina Luna…she is new. So far she seems to be one of the good guys…I pray she stays one…but the swamp is deep my friend….
My rep Pfluger went to DC a good guy. Then I talked to him again after his first term. It was like he had been Stepforded. He still votes mostly like I would have him do but he isn’t the same. Not sure what exactly happens but it must be horrific and powerful.
I’m learning. As soon as I read about Massie, I understood that following his directive would give the House to the Dems. Red flags everywhere.
DC needs an enema. THROW THEM ALL OUT!!!!!!!!!!
DC needs God!
It is exceedingly unlikely that many there will repent as much of what they do specifically is in opposition to our creator.
Rf, none of them even know what it means to repent, including the so-called Christian SOH. It seems as though most leave their religion, morals, ethics and values behind when they get to the cesspool known as Washington DC.
Traitors all.
So…the photo of Massie with Pushaw infers what exactly?
The comment about MTG and McCarthy’s sexual exploits……?
Those are both serious intimations/accusations.
Is all of Congress involved in sexual peccadillos?
They sound like a bunch of over-sexed high schoolers.
Pushaw was in a picture that Sundance has published numerous times. It was in DeSantis’ Office in 2021 or 2022 and it was billed as just friends getting together; however, it was the first or one of the first campaign staff meetings of DeSantis’ 2024 Campaign. Pushaw is the domestic Nuland. Corruption flows in their wake.
Interesting….in a repulsive sort of way.
Thanks.
It is the States that hold the answer to all of this federal corruption. Get active in your local area. That’s how we solve this.
Sad to say, but I live in a state whose government is a microcosm of the DC corruption. Men are corrupt and inclined to evil whether at the state, federal or local level. Only a return to God can solve sin. All other efforts are like re-arranging deck chairs on a sinking Titanic. Until men and women start fearing God more than man, we are a sinking ship. That’s me seeing things as they are, not as I wish them to be.
Sad to say all of us live in States that are microcosms of DC. Tennessee has a super majority rule of Republicans, but the best they can do is purple. Our kids can’t read or do math. We had a special legislative session to pass a Red Flag Law. The Governor knew the shooter was crazy but it is the gun’s fault? The State Party is RINOland and any county that starts to go MAGA gets interference to go back to UniParty.
Drinking my morning coffee is precisely what I was doing while reading this……better than drinking the kool aid I suppose 😎
Why do the R’s constantly step in it? It’s as if they seek out the cow pies at every turn. This is either gross incompetence or designed to give the optical illusion of such because they are truly The Uniparty…like two lawyers who battle it out in court, seemingly hating each other, only to be laughing at lunch later as best pals (while earning a great living in the process).
Incompetence?
Political theater. The dems in CONgress are open about their corruption, and know that they can rely on RINO votes.
The so called republicans are on the same page, but they have to convince their voters that they’re not.
The corruption seems “bottomless” only because we have not openly identified the SOURCE of the corruption. “There is no evidence of” should be responded to with “It looks exactly like it when you consider the nature of spy agencies and what they are trained to do specifically.”
The corruption isn’t bottomless, it’s “endless” because no one has the courage to stop it… well not NO ONE, just not those who are predisposition-ed to government power and how to become a millionaire with no effort and all of the media (IC) deflection needed to get away with it.
The Hidden Hand…..is the square root of -1 for all mysteries, challenges and historical events (wars and revolutions) since the 1800s.
This reminds me of a story of 5 monkeys locked in a room. Hanging in the center of the room is a bunch of bananas and a ladder to reach them However, anytime a monkey touches the ladder all the monkeys get sprayed with water.
In short order, the monkeys begin policing themselves and attack any monkey that approaches the ladder to keep from getting sprayed. Next one of the monkeys is replaced with a new monkey who has no knowledge of the water. Naturally, the monkey heads towards the ladder, is attacked by the other monkeys and learns to not approach the ladder.
One by one all the monkeys who were sprayed with water are replaced until none remain. Now, any monkey who approaches the ladder will get attacked, but none of them no why.
This is how I see Congress. At some point in time, blackmail was used against someone who had broken the law instead of expelling them as should have been done. Could have happened in 1984, could have happened in 1784, but it showed how easy it was get things done in Congress. Since that time, every new person to join Congress as been compromised and blackmailed, probably before their first vote.
Unfortunately, this is politics of personal destruction. If the blackmail was just on political terms, it wouldn’t be strong enough; however, no one wants to risk alienation from their family or going to prison to vote how their constituents prefer. This is especially true when going along with the blackmail nearly guarantees reelection. Only President Trump has been able to stand up to the bullies, and the bullies are making an example of him.
Truth wins in the end, but until that final battle, Satan rules the world.
The Hidden Hand sprays the water.
So you are suggesting they are simply following what others have done? I call BS on that theory. It’s readily apparent that when FISA renewal is threatened, various players who are against renewal get “read in” by the IC and then they change their votes.
That is to say “they never stopped hosing down the monkeys.”
Thank you Sundance for being a wonderful example of truth digging. Your measured words

Recall Majority Leader Schumer who told Trump
<blockquote>“Let me tell you, you take on the intelligence community, they have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you,”</blockquote>
WEE knew they would try every play in the book and here it comes.
Filibuster in the senate, house can’ t remove DJT by itself.
Good observation. If Speaker Jeffries tries to move his bill declaring PDJT an ineligible insurrectionist, presumably the rule will require a two-thirds majority in the House of Ill Repute, and a 60-vote cloture motion in the Senate.
What holds back Speaker Jeffries from trying? Only that if such an outrageous action were to succeed, it would rip the veil off our Potemkin democracy. It would be the shots fired at Fort Sumter, leading inexorably to a crack-up of the rotten DC regime.
Eliminate the Republican party and start fresh..
ITS THE ONLY WAY
IMO The republican party has already been eliminated.
Mopar or no car…
The Republican Party has ALWAYS been a leftist progressive centralizing authoritarian anti-constitutionalist party. I find it interesting that people are finally waking up. Old-time southern conservatives knew the Republicans were always garbage, but once the leaders in the southern wing of the Dem party became leftist d-bags the southern conservatives had no place to go so they held their noses and moved to the Republicans. Now the Dems are the far leftist party and the Reps are just 19th century leftists.
If the Democrats take control of the House, disqualifying Donald Trump from federal office will be the purpose of their first legislative act. They already hold the Senate. They will do this. Thomas Massie knows this. – Sundance
What if this happens and President Trump is removed by Congress? So the precedence will be set that a fraudulently elected Democrat Congress can chose who the Republicans can run for President! Who will be the Republican candidate this year Nikki Haley?? This post is giving me the vapors!!!! I need to find a bag I can breath in!!! God help us! Godspeed President Trump!!!
I detest the republicans and I despise the democrats, some days it’s the other way around.
The only difference is the seating arrangement. Some sit to the left of the center aisle, some sit to the right.
The star players switch on occasion.
Clowns to the left of me,
Jokers to the right,

And I detest aid to foreign client states – ALL of them.
No loyalty to Mikey ‘Mitt’ Johnson here.
He made his bed. Let him lie in it. (That’s a double entendre, heh heh.)
Sodom and Gomorrah on the Potomac; not denial.
Exacy my thought.
And just how did that particular story end?
If the Democrats take control of the House…
Here’s what “your” “Republican” majority passed, kids:
Yes. Now we rely on a mere handful of Senators loyal to the Constitution – Rand Paul, Ron Wyden – to stop it.
Under expanded Section 702 powers, sites such as this one could be compelled to turn over all their data to the FBI – and forbidden to speak about it, under penalty of ‘law’ [sic].
Who needs foreign enemies, when we’ve got RINO traitors right here at home?
Are they loyal and dependable though?
I’m not so sure of that when just one of them could have not gone with the flow with those pro forma sessions that were specifically used to stymie President Trump from making any recess appointments during his entire first term of office.
So…
PDJT is a paragon of virtue…
…and MTG is a whore ?
Is that how it works???
Trust God. Fear not.
Why the smear on President Trump? Did Sundance or anyone state your straw, “paragon of virtue”?
Posts like this really make me want to know what was the point?
I hope that someone is watching what Desantis is doing these days, He has told people at small gathering that he is going to be fund raising for President Trump, but his own campaign manager did not know that. He is also telling anyone who wants to listen that it was not that he did not catch on with the voters it was because they kept indicting P.T and the people felt sorry for him and so they couldn’t very well come out and tell trump they were going with Desantis ,
They should not throw johnson out of the speakers job until later He may be doing what the dems want but dont they all for goodness sake. Its time for the Republicans to band together and that means MTG too and circle the wagons and make sure that they do not give away anymore people.. All of the cowards have been paid big money recently to leave congress so that cuts the Republicans votes down to almost nothing. so please its time to grow a dam back bone and stand up straight for President Trump and the next 4 years. President Trump is going threw pure hell and all you have to do is look at him to know that’s true, He is doing all he can to beat off these dogs and right now He needs all the support he can get.
“Give the gavel to the Democrats? LOl they already have said gavel. The only way we get out of this mess is by the grace of God and looking at what our country has become it would be no surprise if He were a little short on wanting to hand out any grace right now. Who was it that said “People get the government they deserve.”….Hamilton I think?
CNN report:
“A number of Democrats are indicating that they will vote to save Mike Johnson, especially if he moves ahead on a Ukraine aid package…”
Speaker Mike Johnson may have more Democrat friends in the House than Republicans at this point.
And after he gives them what they want, his “friends” will abandon him like the cheap date he is.
Then put Jeffries in the Speaker’s chair.
Why shouldn’t he? Mitt Johnson is the best player on their team – FISA renewal; Ukie aid; etc.
The D party is in good hands with Mitt, comrades.
Too much. I’m leaving at living my best life. Best advice.
I know the feeling. It all starts to mush up. Much like mixing various waste paint together. The end result is a very unpalatable color.
Can you add one hour to your life by the worrying or angst?
No.
Know your limits.
I reached mine some while ago.
“Thomas Massie [R] now joins with MTG [R] in calling for the removal of Speaker Mike Johnson. Let there be absolutely no doubt, removing Johnson right now is giving the speaker gavel to Democrats.”
There are no such things as contradictions. When you think you see a contradiction, it means at least one of your underlying assumptions is false.
Agreed. Solid POV advice.
This morning, Sen. Kennedy from LA said that he had known Johnson for a long time and that Johnson was doing the best that could be done due to existing circumstances. I was surprised that he said that.
Sundance is wrong about Thomas Massie. He has consistently fought against spending in DC (look at his record) and is against sending aid to Ukraine whch Johnson will do.
But he was all in for DeSantis whose campaign was funded by the neocons and rum by Ukrainian operative Pushaw? And he’s such a great guy he wants the Democrats to take control of the House where they will not only fund Ukraine but remove Trump from ballots for 2024?
Please
