Not only the base. Or does he just differentiate between “swayed by propaganda” for the plebs and “blackmailed or bribed” for the party officials?
Ol’ Mike doesn’t want to be held responsible for what he helped enable.
“I think Russian propaganda has made its way into the United States, unfortunately, and it’s infected a good chunk of my party’s base,” House Foreign Affairs Committee chair and Texas Republican, Michael McCaul, told Puck News.
Fascist whines that another fascist has stolen their toy. News at 11.
This goes in the (no shit sherlock) pile. Those of us who have been paying attention and saw the instant flip from red scare to licking putins asshole have known this for a good couple of decades now.
That’s the frustrating thing, it’s so blatantly obvious and out in the open. You’d never know it watching literally any conservative news source.
I’m all for free speech, but wish we had ways to label things as BS because a lot of ignorant people don’t know any better or care to know any better. So disappointing.
1984 levels of turnaround.
I too wait until my house is completely engulfed in flames before realizing that there is a problem.
You’ve been in office since 2005, you saw this shit firsthand and said nothing. Go fuck yourself.
Well yeah, we know. It would’ve been nice if those dipshits had listened to us, like, 8 or 9 fucking years ago.
So is the white Christian bigotry just considered home grown terrorism?
Duh doy
Remember that time a group of Republican politicians visited Moscow on July 4th?
I remember at the time wondering why that wasn’t a bigger deal.
I sure remember Moscow Mitch the Bitch getting upset about being called Moscow Mitch after that but being proud of being called ‘Reaper’ for denying any bills brought forward to get anything done around that timeframe, yeah.
He got called Moscow Mitch before that - it was when he threatened to throw the government into lockdown if Obama revealed the extent of russian hacking and interference in the 2016 election.
He traded his duty to the Constitution in for a drunk rapist and an evangelical nut to sit on the Supreme Court.
Moscow Mitch.
Wait, actually? What the hell is the reasoning behind that? How did Americans vote him back in after that?
How did
AmericansKentuckians vote him back in after that?Voter suppression and some interesting statistical anomalies between the official results and exit polling, favoring the Republicans (that Democrats didn’t have much interest in calling attention to, for fear of lending credence to Trump’s claims of the election being stolen).
Speaking on Tuesday at the Council on Foreign Relations, Biden said the Obama administration sought a united front to dispel concerns that going public with such accusations would be seen as an effort to undermine the legitimacy of the election.
However, McConnell "wanted no part of having a bipartisan commitment saying, essentially, ‘Russia’s doing this. Stop,’ " he said.
At that point, Biden added, he felt that “the die had been cast” and that “this was all about the political play.”
“Had we known what we knew three weeks later, we may have done something more,” Biden added.
One would hope.
If someone wrote a story with Republicans doing that prior to 2016 no editor would ever publish it because it’s so ham-fisted. Like a political plot laid out in a comic for actual elementary school children.
Can we just turn the Red Scare against them again? Just go all out and yell at them that they’re Commies and un-American.
It worked in the 1950s.
Or… I’m just throwing out ideas here… what if we ship them and their lifted trucks to russia so they can totally be in such a conservative utopia?
It doesn’t work that way because the congressmen that celebrated the 4th of July in Moscow are protected by a party which is in turn led by a man who they themselves claim is paid by Vladimir Putin; a party whose voters fly the confederate flag, threaten fellow citizens with “2nd amendment solutions”, say they want to drown the federal government, and constantly argue for states like Texas to secede…
You know REAL AMERICANS.
Traitors should’ve been purged after the civil war and the land given to newly freed peoples; Reconstruction was a mistake.
REDUX: let Texas secede; watch conservatives move there, start a war, conquer it, reclaim it as a US territory with no voting rights or citizenship. Build the wall.
Because anti-communists always turn out to be pro-fascists in the end.
As if we needed more proof that Republicans are a blight upon the world.
They know what they are doing, they just hate their own countrymen more than the Russians.
I don’t think they even hate the Russians. They imagine it is some kind of white ethnostate creating special privileges for cishet xtian white males.
Everyone needs to take a side.
Russia or Ukraine
Palestine or Israel
Liberty or Tyranny
Coke or Pepsi
Not, like, to do anything about it. Just to cheer while other people do the dying.
How many ways can we say, uh duhhhh
idk if infected is the right word. More like eagerly impregnated.
Even in porn I haven’t seen anyone take so many loads with that much gusto as the Republican, NRA and everything related to the right wing has for the past several decades.
Top Republican says party base “Russia’s cum sluts”
Ftfy.
If it’s not a legitimate propaganda, the body has a way of shutting that down.
Deep cut.
That’s disgusting. …And incredibly accurate.
Willful surrogate to Russian Propaganda, then.
It is a misnomer calling a rotting corpse “infected”, it’s just rotting. If foreign powers like Russia join in on scavenging on the rotting flesh of the Republican Party they aren’t “infecting it”.
These foreign agents are only distinguishable from the internal forces of rot by virtue of having originated from outside the body, but in behavior and function they behave identically to the organisms waiting within that had been begun feeding the moment the surrounding entity died.
Impossible. Tucker Carlson is clearly an independent and reliable source. /s
