Arizona House Expels Republican Member

luxintenebris jokingly says...

just to give some perspective...on how today's GOP is...compared to how it was...

RE: Senate Robert Packwood's expulsion

"At one point, the Ethics Committee had to get full Senate approval to seek a court order to enforce a subpoena for a voluminous diary kept by Packwood during his time in the Senate...Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., who is now the Senate majority leader, delivered a speech on the Senate floor in 1993, arguing for enforcement of the subpoena.

"Are we up to the job?," McConnell asked rhetorically, though it was an open question at the time. "Can we through the instrument of the Ethics Committee impartially and thoroughly investigate incidences of misconduct by our colleagues and will we give the committee the authority it needs to get the job done right?"

https://www.npr.org/2017/11/27/566096392/when-bob-packwood-was-nearly-expelled-from-the-senate-for-sexual-misconduct

but it seems worse today.

after seeing the evidence against NJ Sen. Bob Menendez, it seems that the U S Senate, in general, on being held to the highest standards - those standards aren't being held. or even attempted anymore.

Any wonder the Capitol, Congress, or SCOTUS is viewed contemptuously - not just for the obvious slandering politics - but for the glaring ethics violations?

Would have added the Presidency, but that's gone UP in recent years. 91 counts versus nil (which could be part of his campaign).

anyway...found M.C.'s speech smirk-inducing.

Stephen Calls Bruce Willis A Liar... MISTAKE

RE: things that don't age well

if'n could find it (was on YouTube), David Letterman interviewed Colin Powell, & Colin told a story about Ronald Reagan [after the announcement of R.R. diagnosis]. David interpreted the story as a cruel remembrance; evidence of Reagan's advancing Alzheimer's - but Colin meant it as a tribute to Ron's ability to put things into perspective. involved Reagan ignoring Powell's briefing to feed the W.H. lawn squirrels. the story was met w/a v e r y silent audience. & it made me question Colin's ability to see the trees in the forest.

note: Even before the announcement, 2nd year of 2nd term, Reagan's infirmity was evident.

You don’t honestly think there’s one person here who agrees with you, or that doesn’t see every infantile attack as an admission from you, do you?
I mean, I’m not the one who believes every idiotic lie that comes out of a repeatedly convicted con man, rapist, chomo, and fraud. I’m not the one who goes deaf blind and mute every time their stupidity is proven to be pure delusional twaddle.

Hey, I’ve got an idea. How about trying to get your information from somewhere that can show you entire sentences without quick cuts that 100% change what the speaker is saying? No, then you would have nothing to post, because nothing you post is honest or reality, sucker.

😂 That’s it Bobby, I’M gullible, you’re informed! 😂 🤦‍♂️ 😂

BTW- Trump has blamed losing Santos’ seat on the MAGA candidate not endorsing him, forgetting that she absolutely fully endorsed and defended him multiple times on camera. D’oh!

Bonus- Trump lost his final bid to throw out the 34 felony count case in NY for business fraud in his pornstar payoff case. GOING TO CRIMINAL TRIAL ON 34 FELONY COUNTS ON March 25.
Hilariously Trump is denying his own statements and social media posts are his statements and posts….not very smart, it’s only going to annoy the jury and expose him as an infant. It’s also going to give the prosecution to bring in Daniels to describe their sexual encounter and the payoff in vivid televised detail.

2023 Was Already Over 1.5 °C Above Pre Industrial Averages

newtboy says...

It’s scary to me that we found out that today (last year in fact) we are already exceeding the temperature spike most people believe is predicted for 2050, the temperature at which scientists determined KNOWN feedback loops may outpace our ability to mitigate greenhouse gasses even with maximum effort on all fronts and spending every possible dollar and still (almost) NO ONE CARES.

It has barely made the news anywhere, definitely not on any of the major U.S. networks and will never be on anti-science righty media.

I would shout “WAKE THE FUCK UP PEOPLE!” But it’s abundantly clear humanity is completely comatose and shows no sign of recognizing the situation we are in no matter what they see outside their own windows daily.

The pot is boiling and we frogs are still arguing over how wet the water is.

Democrats only care about Illegals, not Americans

newtboy says...

Exactly.

Who votes against funding education? (And against teaching black history)
Who votes against minority financial aid programs?
Who insists blacks should be voting for them simply because they deny racism exists?
Hmmmmm….

Here’s how the right supports civil rights for minorities….


Then Gaetz proudly forced even his wife to refrain from watching the Super Bowl because he was afraid they would sing “lift every voice and sing” again, and he said that’s the black national anthem and hearing a song that tells the struggle of downtrodden Americans (never once mentions race in the song, btw) is so offensive to him, so triggering, that he forced his family to cancel the Super Bowl….but you don’t see racism there, you only see racism in scholarships for poor black students and loans for black businesses.

bobknight33 said:

A racist is one who wants to keep blacks uneducated, poor and voting for them.

Democrats only care about Illegals, not Americans

newtboy says...

Of course he was talking about those specific undocumented immigrants they care about most.
Of course the undocumented immigrants IN THE COUNTRY are the ones our representatives should care about the most.
Only a brain dead slug hears this quick cut clip and thinks “see, they only care about illegal immigrants, not Americans.” Bob thinking that is proof of my point.

More MAGA projection.
Why do you even post, seeing as you can’t even speak or comprehend your claimed native language and only post irrelevant gibberish proving yourself an ignorant gullible fool Daily? 😂

I post mostly to debunk the outrageous nonsensical baseless dishonest propaganda you constantly spew using facts and actual data with sources that can be verified…and partly to shower in your MAGA tears…so yummy you guys, yum!

psycop says...

I honestly don't understand who this is for? This is a website for like, 15 old guys, most of which you already know aren't swayed by this sort of thing.

I suppose it's not much effort really, but it just doesn't seem like an effective way to advance your agenda?

Do you do any offline organizing? Maybe try to meet up with like minded people and try to do something positive in your local area. If people see you are there to solve real problems they will be more likely to pay attention to your point of view.

I feel like you would appreciate some recognition of your position, but I also don't feel like you are very likely to get it here in this way. Maybe it's time to try something different?

A cat, trying to drink water from a kettle

BSR says...

I could see the vent holes and perhaps the not quite sealed lid was working against the cats efforts. This is why cats need to start chewing gum.

newtboy said:

When he blows air in (see it bubble) it would pressurize the kettle body (if the lid was sealed) and push the water in the spout above the level in the body.

A cat, trying to drink water from a kettle

newtboy says...

Yes…Unless acted on by some outside force, like unequal pressure between the now pressurized interior of the kettle and the exterior atmospheric pressure. When he blows air in (see it bubble) it would pressurize the kettle body (if the lid was sealed) and push the water in the spout above the level in the body.

BSR said:

I thought the same thing but remembered water seeks its own level

“Water seeks its own level” is an expression referring to the fact that if water is free to move than all surfaces exposed to the atmosphere will be at the same height. That is the lowest energy state; potential energy is released when water at a higher point flows down into the depression

President Biden Delivers Remarks

newtboy says...

Yes, that kind of clearance, Mr Know Nothing. He had clearance to have every document in his personal possession when he received them, unlike Trump who illegally and secretly stole them from secured facilities. His mistake was trusting his staff to properly forward them to the archives when they packed his senate, and later VP offices.

No, ex senators and ex presidents both don’t have clearance to KEEP classified documents, correct. Trump did not ever have clearance to remove nuclear secrets and other highly classified material from a SCIF, not as president and not after, and it endangers the nation that he did so. It requires written declassification by the DOE, the president cannot declassify nuclear secrets under any circumstances.

The DOJ report indicated Biden did not know his staff had stored a few (6) unlabeled low level classified documents at his secure locked think tank office and personal handwritten notes at his guarded and locked home library (namely a few daily briefs on Afghanistan and some handwritten notes he had made, nothing at all designated top secret), indicated he himself (or attorneys at his instruction) looked for them and immediately reported finding them to the FBI, and allowed them to search that and other properties without requiring a warrant.
The DOJ report also indicated Trump DID know he was illegally taking and retaining highest sensitivity most stringently classified top secret documents by the truckload, not just a small part of one box, refused to return them when asked by the archives, lied about having any, required a warrant for a search, actively hid them when searched, lied again about having MORE, lied about showing them to multiple other parties including foreign agents but was caught red handed on tape, claimed personal ownership (of nuclear secrets), kept them unsecured in public areas, tried to destroy video evidence, claimed they were planted, obstructed Justice multiple times…
…must I go on for you to see the difference, or comprehend why one faces no charge and the other treason?
I’m certain the answer is yes, you haven’t heard enough to admit the situations are completely different despite the fact that one is staff improperly packing up his office when he left it, the other one individual intentionally stealing hundreds of state secrets for personal gain at the nation’s expense…you can never hear enough evidence to admit that.

Is Maddow still on? Sorry Charlie, like I’ve told you a hundred times but you can never recall, I’ve never watched CNN beyond short YouTube clips, not before they went right wing certainly not since. In fact, I think it’s likely that you watch more CNN than I do, you sure like to post and quote them now. If she’s still on and is saying the same things I’m not surprised, she was a smart wonky cookie last I saw.
It’s hilarious when you don’t know my sources, because when you can’t try to impugn the source over nonsense you have no argument at all, just rambling nonsensical insanity spewed from your mouth like explosive diarrhea.

Me thinks you have too little brain in the brain.

😂 Talk about projection! What a confession. 😂

Everything Trump said in that idiotic speech was a lie about Biden and an admission of what he himself did.
I won’t insult your minimal intelligence by pretending you actually believe the delusional ramblings you just posted, they would make a good case for insanity if he believed it, but we all know he doesn’t.
Every word of that insanity was a total fabrication of a delusional mind.

The presidential records act absolutely doesn’t give him the right to take top secret classified documents home when he leaves office, or retain them, or lie under oath about having them, or defy warrants for them, or show them to otherS, NONE OF THAT IS LEGAL UNDER THE PRESIDENTIAL RECORDS ACT.
Trump obstructed Justice at every possible turn, destroying evidence hiding documents, he still has an unsearched secret room in his bedroom not disclosed when the FBI searched, so likely has MORE stolen documents still. Biden cooperated more than fully with the investigation, which even the political hack Trump appointed special prosecutor admitted.
…and Biden had a grand total of 20 documents or notes designated “classified”, none top secret…Trump had over 325 well marked classified FILES containing multiple classified documents each including I think a dozen or more of the highest most secret files the government has, files never supposed to leave a SCIF and not declassifiable by the president under any circumstances.
Not one word he said was true, and you know it, fool.
That speech if not intentional lies is proof Trumpist Alzheimer’s has progressed to the point of total delusion.

PS- Still waiting.

Senators don't have clearance to take and keep classified documents, as the DOJ report indicated.

How Al Green Ruined The Impeachment Scam

newtboy says...

😂 Total 100% exoneration! 😂

The political hit piece fabricated by a Trumpist operative tried in every dishonest way to impugn his character, proving conclusively that it’s not an investigatory report it’s an editorial opinion article, but even he could not make even a minor case for criminality even to MAGgots willing to believe anything no matter how hard he twisted the evidence.
There’s no evidence of any crimes, that’s why there’s no recommendation for prosecution.

😂 100% exoneration, absolutely zero evidence of any possible criminality, unlike Trump who has provided 100% proof of treasonous criminality in dozens of ways. 😂

Edit: Meanwhile Trump doesn’t know who is president today, who he was in an election against in 2016, or who was president in 2020, does not recall that we already fought WW2, doesn’t know foreign leaders or countries, can’t distinguish Haley from Pelosi, and often doesn’t know where he is…all proven repeatedly in videos of him trying to speak at high school gymnasiums that can’t be filled, videos that include the crowds leaving as he speaks because they’re hearing the dementia unfiltered and it’s a turn off.
When you talk about Biden flubbing words 95% of the time you can’t provide video, just snide comments from biased third parties, and when you can provide video it’s highly edited to pretend a slight stutter is a mental disorder. Every time you actually see him speak unedited even you have admitted he was surprisingly lucid and intelligent. Trump’s gaffs need no such production, they’re unavoidable every time you watch him speak in a rambling stream of consciousness for even just 30 seconds.

How Al Green Ruined The Impeachment Scam

newtboy says...

STILL WAITING…..😂 😂 😂 one of these days your balls will drop and you’ll finally be man enough to admit when you’re 100% proven wrong…not yet though. Keep trying kiddo.

Exactly…thanks to the MAGA house members blocking billions needed to get control of the border, billions those same MAGA house members insisted on to send aid to Ukraine and now say isn’t important to appease their master. Americans see that clearly, the border issue now belongs to Trump until Dems retake the house.

True…fools like Trump and his cultists.
Republicans blocked immigration/border reform, billions to secure the border and reform immigration…exactly what they demanded 4 months ago…you fool.

So the flood if illegals will continue.

Fools find that to be good news.
