Fla Rep Matt Gaetz taken to the woodshed by Liz Cheny

It just shows how full of RINOs and swamp monsters the RNC really is.
-
Gaetz should be removed from committees, too. He's a national security threat.
-
@raphjd
Yup - only QAnon belibers should rule!
Everyone should have the same beliefs and opinions
THAT'S DEMOCRACY!Have you ever read 1984???

The second is the cartoonish "ghoul" from a childrens TV show...
Odd resemblence, no?Hey lots love Robbie Rotten
Icelandic actor Stefan Karl Stefansson, who played villain Robbie Rotten in the children's TV series "LazyTown," has died of cancer. He was 43.

Have you?
Your beloved DNC is trying to make the country exactly like that.
The same people that lied about Russian Collusion for 4 years and covered for how dirty Biden and Kamala really are are the same ones that want "Reality Czars" and censorship for those they disagree with.
The same people that told people to get in politicians' faces are now demanding that people be banned from society, thrown in prison, and all manner of vile crap.
-
Sigh... more vitriol and hyperbole... you just don't know any other way, do you?
I haven't just read 1984, I've taught classes on it!
No one is asking for increased censorship (which is the pre-emptive banning of material from being published). (We already do censor some things - like child pornography - which you are already aware of, and clear support in another thread).
But when someone posts provably false information in an attempt to incite others to violence, and then that post is removed, that's not censorship.
And, when someone is warned repeatedly that their actions are in violation of the terms of service, and is then banned by that service for not taking heed, that also is not censorship.
Your use of the term "Reality Czars" is the first I've heard of - it must be something inside your echo chamber, because out here (in the real world) it's not being used by anyone else.
And finally, no one is asking that Marjorie Taylor Greene be "banned from society, thrown in prison, and all manner of vile crap" - no, she's just being thrown off her committee assignments for making threats of violence against members of Government. (Technically, that's a hair's breath away from treason!)
People can still get in the faces of politicians - however, they cannot do so with a weapon in their hand.
Honestly: that's just common sense!
-
LOL, please stop the mental gymnastics to defend your fellow liberals.
Google "Reality Czar"
For someone so educated and smarter than me, you surely are clueless.
Stop claiming to be a conservative, since it's clear you are just a liberal.
-
Because you were too dumb to look it up before.

Google "Reality Czar"You are a lazy reader: I didn't say the term didn't exist. only that it wasn't used outside your rabid, conspiracy theory obsessed, echo chamber.
Stop claiming to be a conservative, since it's clear you are just a liberal.
Thanks again for your taking of my inventory
Here, I'll try yours: "You're a QAnon-following git!"Dollars to donuts, I was closer!

Ok, so try to find more than one or two normal news outlets - any of the networks (PBS? CBS? ABC? NBC? NPR? FOX?) ...
Your quoting Breitbart is like my calling you mental and you showing your admission papers for lunacy as a counter-argument!

OH! You GOT ME THERE The NY Times (not a publication many Republicans read, mind you) has an OP-ED where the AUTHOR uses the term Reality Czar.
So, show me any other reference - something to support the people in Democratic circles are using that term...
Mind you: if you win on this point, you'll be demonstrating your loss on the other: your claim that I'm somehow a "Democrat in disguise" (presumably because I'm not incensed that The Orange Don-ald lost - lost because he shot himself in the head, politically!!
Why am I so hopeful about Republican Politics?
- there is always change in power structures in the US. It's never about will they gain control - it's about how long before we're back in!
- If you stop being *myopic about the presidential race, Republicans - Conservatives - did quite well! Look HERE for proof!
-
The NYT is a DNC propaganda rag.
I doubt that you Democrats read every "news" site.
Conservatives lost the entire federal government. That is "quite well" for a RINO.

Ummm... just how many parts are there in the Federal Government?
Your continued myopathy towards losses of your Demi-God, Donald Trump blind you to the rest of the political landscape...
Literally you can't see the political forest for the weed that was Donald Trump!
- It was inevitable that Dems would eventually win back the Senate - we had a brutal 2020 calendar, and it's even worse looking at 2022.
- The house is another story - we made gains in the House - even while losing the presidency - that is rare (and an indication that the "Nation's rebuke" was of Donald Trump himself and not Republican policy.
- The Supreme Court is firmly in the hands of Conservative justices. At 6-3, this is the most firmly Conservative court since the 1930s!
- MOST IMPORTANTLY: Republicans at the State level won by wide margins, meaning we're in a GOOD PLACE to re-take the House in 2022, and we're in control of redistricting!
So, while you're whining that someone peed on your favorite flower, the rest of the garden is in great shape - for a Winter season, that is!
-
The White House and both house of Congress.
Also, some of the Justices aren't as conservative as they appeared.

I said "you don't know shite about what you're talking about" (or something like that... and I pointed out how well placed the Republican party is positioned to regain power: in 2022 in the House, and in 2024 in the Senate... the White House is always a toss-up when there isn't an incumbent, and Biden has said from the start that he expects to serve only 1 term... for now, I'll take him at is word, though I will still be surprised if he keeps that particular promise.
And you said?
The White House and both house of Congress.
Apparently, you *still think that is the "entire federal government".
And to that exchange, I'll provide 2 links to 2 very profound statements"- Ron White (comedian): You can't fix stupid
- Mark Twain (comedian): Don't argue with stupid people, for they'll drag you down to their level, and beat you with experience!
NOTE: As you'll see in the link, no one can actually trace the quote to Twain, but a lot of people attribute the quote to him... who am I to argue with the Internet!?!?
But, then you add:
Also, some of the Justices aren't as conservative as they appeared.
Ignoring the mixed tenses in there (did you even attend High School? In English? I'll forgive you if not!)... you now contradict yourself... on two counts:
- You finally admit that the Supreme Court is part of the Federal Government... but,
- ... apparently it's not Conservative enough for you to consider it in Conservative control. [Remember: this is the most conservative court since the the time of Roosevelt!]
Good GOD man, if you'll take your nose out of Trump's ass long enough, you'll realize that things aren't as shitty as they seem when your nose is shoved up there as far as it can go!
GET A GRIP Your Demi-GOD didn't win the election, and the world is not coming to an end!! It is absolutely not the Conservative Apocalypse!
IF you read more than just the last chapter of any modern History book, you'll see that power shifts constantly in Washington! We backed the wrong horse in "following Trump" (in 2016, but especially in 2020 after the election), but the damage has been manageable, and shouldn't be permanent!

I invite you to peruse my entire posting history to prove one does not need to resort to being less than oneself in any attempt to make one's point.

If you think I've tried to insult you, you've taken my postings far too personally - and I apologize. I don't mean to insult anyone

I think you need to go back and re-read what was said.
You can go fuck yourself with that grammar nazi shit.
Keep proving that you are a useless RINO.
-
Yeah, well this so-called-RINO was called this weekend by my local Republican Party to serve on a committee - a committee focusing on rebuking QAnon and returning our Party to one of true Conservative Values.
SANE minds will re-take this party!
