While Mark Figley is vexed by Joe’s enjoyment of ice cream, weightier matters trounce the petty. Some questions for the guest insurrectionist.
Why is there GOP opposition to:
Reducing the cost of insulin, negotiating lower drug costs, aid to Ukraine, suspension of trade relations with Russia and, most obscenely, investigating Russia’s war crimes? Why oppose the hiring of IRS agents? Could it be they don’t want to pursue the $163 billion the US Treasury estimates the top 1% avoid paying annually? The GOP quickly gutted the Office of Congressional Ethics; no funds to investigate equates to no crimes committed.
Why is Tucker Carlson broadcast on Russian state TV? Yea, I’ll stick with CNN and PBS, who don’t promote the views of despotic czars. Putin and Murdoch are as thick as thieves. There is considerable speculation regarding Carlson’s Kremlin remuneration.
Jan. 6th security? Blame the instigator, too preoccupied watching live TV to call off his goons.
Your list of requested xenophobic-inspired murders? Buffalo, Pittsburgh, El Paso, but let’s add Dylan Roof too.
Why the prurient curiosity in the sexuality of others? Here’s a novel idea, mind your own business. Plus, you misspelled menstruate.
Lastly the GOP opposition to HR 6552 regarding sex trafficking. I’m left to conclude 20 GOP approve the practice.
“GOP filth” bears repeating.
