    @1 Impeachment is a toothless tiger. What this country needs is electoral college reform so trailer park states can’t elect presidents with millions fewer votes than the other candidate got.

    Our Putin-lovin’ traitor says he’s “guilty”, as in, “as guilty for creating an environment permitting the rise of Trump as liberals are for permitting an environment that enabled the survival of Hillary Clinton.”

    This is not “A start.” It is fucking pathetic. Perhaps if he were to create a hashtag along the lines of “#I’mGuiltyofTreasonAndI’mSorry” and posted it 5,000 times, someone might give a flying fuck. But it won’t be me.

    I don’t forgive traitors like the dumbfuck. I’m want them in front of a firing squad or swinging from a rope.

    NPV will undoubtedly get a boost from all this.
    Arizona, having been flipped at the state level, is now poised and ready. All that stands in the way is an historically unpopular governor among a half dozen targeted for destruction in 2022.
    Joining him will be Brian Kemp, another Republican governor from a state that now despises the Republican Party for having betrayed the United States and sought to install a dictator.

    States like Georgia and Arizona were never really among the prime next targets for the NPV movement. But Trump, the GOP, and their Pipe Bomb Army of Fascists have delivered them to us. Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Minnesota are now primed and ready as well. With the state total now standing at 196 electoral votes, those states are enough to surpass the 270 threshold for enactment. A big push effort over the next four years with the Biden/Harris administration leading the way in educating the voters can push it over the top.

    With the right coordinated effort the 2020 election could be the last “winner-take-all” election. And wannabe fascist dictators will just have to look for some other political playground.

    With all of these lies, it’s not a statistical calculation about the election itself.

    It’s a statistical calculation about return on investment.

    Trump’s bankrupted himself more than half a dozen times fucking that up. Now he’s bankrupted the GOP. Culp just chickened out I guess.

    @9 drop a cluster bomb on the ranch, easy solution.

    People will be like, “he ain’t fucking around”.

    If we can drop bombs on other countries why not drop one on your own country when required, what were bombs made for? Don’t waste them, put them to good use.

    The black guy couldn’t do it because he would have been called a racist by the right.

    “Loews Hotels on Saturday said it would not host a fundraiser for Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.), expressing horror at the Capitol siege and stating its opposition to ‘all who supported and incited the actions.'”

    https://www.huffpost.com/entry/loews-hotels-fundraiser-josh-hawley_n_60036919c5b6efae62f910f5

    Hmm, they didn’t explicitly clal Hawley an inciter of violent insurrection against the government of the United States, but you sure could read that implication into their statement, with a minimum amount of effort.

    Meanwhile, I read elsewhere that Missouri’s two leading newspapers are calling on Hawley to resign, and his biggest donor doesn’t know him.

    Things aren’t exactly going as he planned.

    16,
    And there you have it.
    Republicans haven’t given up on any of it.
    The only thing they are prepared to let go of is the violent Pipe=Bomb-Coup. A few (including PillowCrackHead) are still working on violent Pipe-Bomb-Coup II. Everything else, from Stop the Steal, to HuhrDuhrham, to BabyCannibalism remains part of the cult orthodoxy. The GOP remains a party entirely devoted to developing and promoting insane destructive cult lies.

  19. 19

    @5 Republicans are trying to give “disenfranchised” a whole new meaning: If they don’t want, they’re disenfranchised.

    For the rest of us, disenfranchised means prevented from voting. To a Republican, that means prevented from “cheating.”

    You see, if you don’t vote for them, you’re cheating and your vote is “fraudulent.”

    If you’re black, your vote is “fraudulent” even if you do vote for them. I hope Puddy is taking note of that.

  20. 20

    @ 15

    Things aren’t exactly going as he planned.

    Hillary Clinton spent two terms in the White House as First Discarded Vagina, and all those years planning and then running two failed presidential campaigns, before it was clear to her that she is poison and that her presence in any situation makes things worse.

    Josh Hawley will achieve similar clarity far earlier in life. And likely in the process will cause far less damage to his party than Hillary caused to hers.

  21. 21

    20,
    Do you still consider yourself qualified to judge the quality and effort of other comments?

    Yeah. After that you should not. Aside from being Pudiot grade word salad, it’s dated, irrelevant, and fails to even produce any hint of wit, unless you think “unwanted pussy” qualifies.

    Tara, only a couple of weeks ago you were chortiling and masturbating over Tiger Beat posters of your GOP “deep bench”.
    Today those not facing felony warrants are losing the leases on their district offices. And those that chose to distance themselves sufficiently from the Pipe Bomb Coup now get to look forward to perpetual bomb threats and lynch mobs.

    Harris isn’t even sworn in yet as VP, and thanks to you, Hawley, and David Dennison she’s already polling toward a walk home win in 2024. Nobody but you and your 4chan girlfriends can ever know what Hillary Clinton has to do with any of that. Long after the heat death of the universe she’ll still be living rent-free in your head. But thanks to you and the rest of your cult-of-personality, before that Kamala Harris will be living rent-free in the White House.

    @6 He sued SoS Kim Wyman in King County Superior Court, but I couldn’t find any filings in the case with an online search. News reports suggest he claimed, among other things, that dead people voted and the Attorney General responded that “counties had contacted the people Culp claimed were deceased and found the voters were alive, or had died after voting.”

    Culp’s lawyer, Stephen Pidgeon, is a certifiable nutcase with ties to the Christian Taliban.

    Pidgeon “is a far-right conspiracy theorist who has … spread discredited theories that President Barack Obama was a secret Muslim who intended to impose an Islamic caliphate on the United States.”

    According to the WSBA website, Pidgeon was admitted to practice in 1995, is a solo practitioner with an office in Everett, and lists his practice areas as “Appellate, Civil Rights, Constitutional, Criminal, Estate Planning/ Probate/ Wills, Immigration & Naturalization, Non-Profit/Tax Exempt”.

    According to this website, ” Dr. Stephen Pidgeon is a political scientist with a Doctorate of Philosophy, and an active attorney with a Juris Doctorate in the state of Washington. In collaboration with a group of students of scripture, he is responsible for the creation and publication of the Eth CEPHER; a comprehensive restoration of sacred scripture in the English language.

    According to SoS records, Pidgeon ran for state attorney general in 2012 and was crushed in the primary, receiving little over 10% of the vote. https://results.vote.wa.gov/results/20120807/attorney-general.html

    According to the Washington State Democratic Party, the “active attorney” part of his resume may disappear, as the party “announced Friday it had filed a complaint with the state bar association against Pidgeon, arguing he should be disciplined for violating several professional-conduct standards for attorneys.”

    @8 Seems fair to me. He threw them under the bus.

    But I have a question: Does the fact they’re now threatening to kill him mean he won’t pardon them for their Capitol insurrection crimes?

    I can’t think of two parties to a bad marriage who deserve each other more.

    Tara, only a couple of weeks ago you were chortiling and masturbating over Tiger Beat posters of your GOP “deep bench”.

    @17 I’m curious how they plan to get past fences topped with razor wire, armored vehicles, and 25,000 National Guard troops.

    This guy couldn’t. Maybe they have more realistic-lookikng fake inauguration credentials?

  28. 28

    You know, if people like Bundy and the Boogaloo Bois want to walk into razor wire and machine guns, like the British Army did on July 1, 2016, maybe we should let them.

    The British were our friends, and that was a tragedy. These guys aren’t our friends, and this time it won’t be a tragedy.

    His attacks on mail in voting mirrored Trump, even though we have been doing it for years. I arfyed on Facebook with one of his supporters that said he didnt need a mail in ballot because he always vited absentee.

    Given what’s going on at Coup Klux Klan events all around the US today and through Wednesday, I think a review of Brandenburg is in order (Brandenburg v. Ohio). You’re all big kids. You can look up the cases and history if that’s your thing.

    1. The speech is directed to incite or produce imminent lawless action;

    and

    2. The speech is likely to produce that lawless action.

    So a two part test and both of the truth conditions must be met in order for government action infringing on speech to proceed.

    First what it isn’t.
    There’s no blanket pardon or protection just because something is said to be “political” or “religious”. The test is entirely neutral as to content (as it should be). It isn’t relevant to the private sector. Twitter or whoever can do whatever the fuck they like. The test doesn’t apply to them. It isn’t about “us vs. them” or political viewpoint. Again, the test is neutral as to content in such regards. The test only cares about content relevant to the two prongs. And the courts are generally unwilling to entertain arguments suggesting that a particular political viewpoint is more or less likely to meet either truth condition.

    So the first prong requires that the speech be not merely intentional, but directed. That means time, place, and circumstance matter. It must do more than persuade in terms of belief or ideology. It must call for action. And that action must be distinctly and clearly lawless. The language used may be vague or imprecise. But the intended meaning must be clearly lawless. And the action must be imminent. That doesn’t have to mean “right now”. But it does mean it has to be certain.

    The second truth condition is somewhat less complicated, but often the greater source of argument. The speech must be “likely” to produce the action described in the first truth condition. “May mighty Jupiter in his wrath reign terrible fire down upon the General Manager of the Seattle Seahawks tomorrow morning for trading away their first round draft pick” does not describe likely action. “Likely” may not be clearly understood, but it also isn’t entirely subjective. And it is not “likely” as that idea is understood in the mind of the speaker at the time of the speech. Nor as the speaker might choose to describe their mind at a later date. It means “likely” as that would be perceived by a reasonable observer.

    Did Trump’s calls for his mob to storm the capitol meet both of those truth conditions? I don’t know. But I can certainly think of similar cases that have been made. And beyond this, there are questions about under which of various criminal statutes he might be charged. So the short of it is that this is absolutely not any kind of “open and shut” or “slam dunk” case. And if such a case is ever brought it will be in the courts for a while and go through a few appeals.

    I’d hate to see another president do anything like it ever again. So I think it’s worth going forward with it.

    And in the mean time, from what I’m seeing there are plenty of Coup Klux Klan radicals speaking at events all across the country whose speech is sailing over Bradenburg with room to spare. They play with fire. Because if any lawless action should directly follow these should be easy cases to make.
    Lock ’em up.

    Retired officers retain a status as members of the military, as they can be recalled to active service, according to the needs of the service, so if he neglected to resign his commission before committing acts of insurrection he technically mutinied.

    @30 The sheriff offered him a deputy job (why?), which Culp turned down. Nevertheless, I’m shaken by what might have been. I have little reason to visit Ferry County, and even less now that I know the sheriff there is willing to hand a badge and gun to a nutjob like Culp, as I definitely wouldn’t feel safe there.

    44)At least Okanagon County was home to Peter Goldmark. Sad what happened to his brother and his family. Probably should be taught as an example of where political rhetoric, red-baiting, and name-profiling can end with.

    Doctor Dumbfuck will be heartened to learn a violent “leftist” is off the streets. (Biden supporters will be, too, because this guy is a bipartisan hater.) In terms of proportionality of threat, the Trump uprising had 15,000 violent supporters; the Kurdish uprising, so far, has 1.

    I’m not sure just any former United States Attorney could ever go on to sell pardons.

    But if one was top of that list would be Rudy. He’s been pure scum his entire life. And most importantly, as a lawyer, he’s built his entire career out of lying. The lying, aside from ruining his ability to gain trust, I think set him on the course toward irredeemable corruption.

    Now his freedom hangs by a thin, frayed orange thread.
    I don’t think Trump will come through for him.

  52. 52

    Not for nuthin:
    there’s a pretty clearly documented record of Donald J. Trump supporting, encouraging, approving of, and complimenting mob violence over the decades. And quite a lot in just the last four years. I think the only clear records of him decrying mob violence came under pressure in the ten days. That’s something his defense lawyers will absolutely have to contend with both in the Senate and afterward.

    That’s useful information that other Republicans ought to take in and consider. But they won’t. Because… Republicans.

    New Mexico is a long way from Washington D.C., so I doubt he’s back in town to get a haircut or do some casual sightseeing. But ya gotta think “attaboy” when criminals hang around the crime scene and loiter outside the police station. Makes ’em easy to catch.

    Hillary Clinton’s favorability when Bill was campaigning was in the 30s. She was unlikable even then. Dissed the same women who ended up supporting her 24 years later. Proving that women deserve what they get. ’cause they could have supported Bernie. Or Martin O’Malley. Instead they supported The Unflattering Pantsuit.

    Her favorability plummeted from 56% just after Al Gore conceded to 44% in March of 2000.

    So I suppose we should revisit Melania’s favorability in a couple of months, and compare it to Hillary’s.

    Everyone remember how “moderate” Republicans and “EEEN-DEE-PEN-DUNCE” would pinkie promise that if base Democrats would only agree to abandon key constituencies and agree to nominate a “blame-the-poor/old/minorities” “conservative” Democrat they’d jump on board and support him?

    Remember how that always worked out?

    So what do we think the chances are now, that if we agree to drip the prosecution of treasonous insurrection and ignore the important role that Republican lawmakers all played in getting it off the ground they’ll pivot to “healing” and work with President Biden to help America recover from TrumPlague?

    I tolerated 44 (Obama) for 8 years. Here is my issue with the whole, “let us all be a United States again” that we heard from Joe Biden. For the last 4+ years, the Democrats have gone and scorched earth. You have salted the fields and now you want to grow crops. The problem is 75 + million of us have memories longer than a hamster.

    We remember the 4 years of attacks and impeachments
    We remember “not our president” and the “Resistance…”
    We remember Maxie Walters telling followers to harass us in restaurants.
    We remember the Presidents spokesperson being kicked out a restaurant.
    We remember hundreds of Trump supporters physically attacked.
    We remember Trump supporters getting Doxed, and fired from jobs.
    We remember riots, and looting.
    We remember “a comedian” holding up the President’s severed head.
    We remember a play in Central park paid with public funding, showing the killing of President Trump.
    We remember Robert de Niro yelling “F” Trump” at the Tony’s and getting a standing ovation.
    We remember Nancy Pelosi tearing up the State of the Union Address.
    We remember the total in the tank move on the mainstream media.
    We remember the non-stop and live fact checking on our President and his supporters.
    We remember non-stop in your face lies and open cover-ups from the media.
    We remember the President and his staff being spied on.
    We remember five Senators shot on a ballfield.
    We remember every so-called comedy show turn into nothing but Trump hate fest.
    We remember 95% negative coverage in the news.
    We remember the state governors asking and getting everything they ask for and then blaming Trump for their problems.
    We remember a Trump top aid verbally assaulted in two DC restaurants.
    We remember people banging on the Supreme Court doors.
    We remember that we were called every name in the book for supporting President Trump.
    We remember that Hollywood said they would leave after Trump was elected but they stayed.
    This list is endless, but you get the idea. My friends will be my friends, but a party that has been on the attack for 4 long years does not get a free pass with me.

    Steve won’t be fucking, ever again. Undoubtedly because of a fascist traitor somewhere. Or maybe just because, well… it’s Steve.

    “When President Bill Clinton bypassed regular Justice Department channels to pardon financier Marc Rich, there was resounding and repeated outcry from conservative editorial boards — the Wall Street Journal, in particular.

    Parssy,
    you already have posted that idiotic copy-pasta twice before and it didn’t work any better then.

    Face this one thing, now, before it’s too late, or there will be no redeeming you, your party, or “conservatism”:

    Trump did it all to himself.
    Trump’s Acting AG appointed and oversaw the Special Counsel.
    Trump’s own party conducted the hearings, called the witnesses, and chose the questions.
    Trump’s own United States Attorneys brought all the inductments, and secured the criminal convictions.
    Trump’s hand picked lawmakers ran the elections that you and he claim are fraudulent.
    Trump’s campaign funded the PACs that arranged the events on Jan 6th.
    Trump paid for the jumbotrons, the staging, the PA system, the bleachers.
    Trump even paid for some of the bus charters and hotel stays.

    Democrats spent the first three years of the four years you are sobbing about doing absolutely nothing about Trump except trying to ignore him. Knowing he couldn’t win without corruption he invited Russia into the election in 2016. Knowing he couldn’t win he invited Ukraine into the election in 2020. And knowing he didn’t win, he invited traitors with pipe bombs to lay siege to our nation’s capitol.

    Now you want us to ignore him?

    Cry more pussy.
    You fucking lost. You got your asses kicked back in November and again on Jan. 6th. You asswipe traitors are in no position to dictate terms to anybody. Even with the backing of the White House and the Republican Senate you fucktards can’t manage to coup. Losers don’t fuck. Losers walk.

    Here are your terms bitch:
    Learn to be a good citizen or go to jail.

  94. 94

    @87 That’s quite a list of grievances. Next to you, Joe Btfsplk is a good luck charm. You’re one of those people who can’t walk to the mailbox without tripping on a sidewalk crack. Maybe you should stay indoors more.

    “A New Mexico county commissioner who heads Cowboys for Trump was arrested Sunday in Washington, D.C., by Capitol Police after vowing to bring back his guns for Inauguration Day.

    “Couy Griffin was wanted on an arrest warrant after storming … the Capitol [on] Jan. 6 …. He drove back from his New Mexico home in time for the inauguration Wednesday, a journey he chronicled on Facebook.

    “Griffin said in a chilling Facebook video clip on ‘Inside Edition’ last Monday that ‘there’s going to be blood running’ from the Capitol when rioters return. ‘There will never be a Biden presidency,’ he vowed in an interview on the program. ‘We’re not going to allow it.’ …

    “On Thursday, Griffin told his fellow commissioners that he planned to travel with his guns back to Washington for President-elect Joe Biden’s inauguration … in a videotaped meeting ….

    “‘I’ve got a .357 Henry Big Boy rifle, lever action, that I’ve got in the trunk of my car and I’ve got a .357 single-action revolver, the Colt Ruger Vaquero, that I’ll have underneath the front seat ….’

    “He told FBI agents who interviewed him that he hoped a change in leadership could be accomplished ‘without a single shot being fired.’ But he noted if that was not an option, ‘that’s off the table for the sake of freedom,’ the affidavit stated. …

    “Threatening messages concerning the inauguration have also been posted on his Cowboys for Trump Facebook page. …”

    97,
    Sovereign immunity. So long as the arrest warrant was issued in good faith, and she is afforded her right to due process, there is no tort.

    Is it possible that FDLE swore an affidavit with information they knew to be false? Sure. And if that turns out to be the case, different story.

    Here’s the most likely scenario: The search warrant last November was invalid. The affidavit contained falsehoods. The challenge to the warrant will ultimately be upheld. The arrest warrant, based upon evidence collected during the execution of the search warrant will only hold up if FDLE can show parallel construction. That is if they can show that they would have found that evidence anyway. But the defense is still awaiting discovery on that evidence. So at this point nobody knows what the arrest warrant is based on. Eventually the search warrant is quashed, the evidence is excluded and the prosecutor drops the charges.

    Ultimately there’s a good chance here that sovereign immunity holds up since it looks like, despite the search and arrest being vindictive, politically motivated, and carried out entirely under false pretenses, they followed minimal legal steps to legitimize what they were doing.

    Yet another example in how the sweeping powers we cede to police and prosecutors do not serve us well. An arrest warrant should require more than just a bunch of assholes signing papers and kicking down doors.

  103. 103

    100)Unfortunately, it took the riot and this threat to arrest him. Didnt he call for arrest and execution of Democrats months ago?

  104. 104

    103,
    The credibility and imminent nature of a threat become a whole lot easier to establish in court once the threat has been carried out.

    I’m not excusing the nihilism, violence, and open fascism of the GOP here.
    But neither would I welcome any vast government apparatus to impose prior restraint, even on expression that is nihilistic or fascistic. I think the biggest failures leading up to this have been granting credibility to the continuous, incessant lying. The reluctance on the part of far too many Democrats to simply label them lies is part of the problem. The fear that “people in my district/state” would turn on them if they openly and aggressively opposed the GOP lying.

    But I’m not ready for a government that gets to decide who is lying, or whose speech is too “threatening”. That’s playing right into the hands of the fascists.

    “Reuters witnessed the police stop of the African Americans, which stood in contrast to dozens of white pro-gun activists on foot and in hundreds of trucks that drove through Richmond’s streets flying ‘Guns Save Lives’ flags without police interceding.

    They were stopped one block from Richmond’s memorial to Confederate General Robert E. Lee, less than an hour after a white, anti-government ‘boogaloo’ leader boasted on a megaphone that his group was violating gun and ammunition laws.”

    TIL pardons can be revoked.

    W pardoned a wealthy criminal campaign donor right before Christmas at the end of his failed presidency. Then the very next day when the media began to humiliate him over it, he revoked it in shame. The dude served 5 months.

    In 1869, on his third day in office, President Grant revoked two pardons issued by his predecessor. And it held up in court. The court essentially said that if the Constitution grants the President the power to reconsider a pardon (and they held that it did) then it also grants the President the power to reconsider it at any time prior to it being “executed”. And they further held that it didn’t matter if it wasn’t the same person serving as President. It was “the office” that mattered.

    As near as I can tell now, at the closing moments of the most unsuccessful Presidency in US history, the emerging “ideology” of “conservatism” will be:

    – The merciless slaughter of all who oppose you;
    – Crippling protective tariffs.

  123. 123

    The emerging McConnell ideology consists of throwing Trump under the bus. Looks like Barr is on board for that, too.

    Josh Hawley is still doing what he does best: Jerking off.

    “Sen. Josh Hawley blocked quick consideration of President-elect Joe Biden’s Homeland Security nominee, Alejandro Mayorkas, on Tuesday, leaving the third-largest federal department without confirmed leadership as it faces national security concerns, a pandemic and an incoming president prepared to roll out ambitious immigration plans.

    “The Missouri Republican’s decision stemmed from an exchange with Mayorkas hours earlier during the nominee’s confirmation hearing before the Senate Homeland Security Committee.
    ‘Mr. Mayorkas has not adequately explained how he will enforce federal law and secure the southern border given President-elect Biden’s promise to roll back major enforcement and security measures,’ Hawley said in a statement. ‘Just today, he declined to say he would enforce the laws Congress has already passed to secure the border wall system. Given this, I cannot consent to skip the standard vetting process and fast-track this nomination when so many questions remain unanswered,’ he continued.”

    “Stand back and stand by.”

    The Biden transition official, however, warned migrants against coming to the U.S. during the early days of the new administration, telling NBC that while “there’s help on the way,” now “is not the time to make the journey.”

    “The situation at the border isn’t going to be transformed overnight,” the official told the outlet.

    “We have to provide a message that health and hope is on the way, but coming right now does not make sense for their own safety…while we put into place processes that they may be able to access in the future,” the official said.

    @140 – It’s the Chinese Communist Party that’s responsible for the virus. It was done intentionally, primarily to kill white people because the Chinese are very racist and chauvinistic. Other races don’t offer much of a threat to their communist power, so the Xi Jinping crowd is not much worried about them at this point. Once the Chinese Communist Party establishes its New China Empire, they may turn their attention to harming non-whites.

    @139 Now let’s talk about Mike Pence’s future:

    “Politically speaking, Pence is a man without a country. He is FAR too Trump-y for those within the GOP who want a clean break from the soon-to-be-former president. And he is not Trump-y enough for the diehard adherents of the 45th president. That no-man’s land is a very tough place to be politically ….

    “The Point: Pence’s big gamble failed. Because he bet on a guy in Trump who views loyalty as a one-way street (among other character flaws). Pence is now, almost certainly, done in national politics — another victim of Trump’s political poison.”
