House Votes to Strip Marjorie Taylor Greene of Her Committee Assignments


House Votes to Strip Marjorie Taylor Greene of Her Committee Assignments:  The House voted largely along party lines (230 to 199, with only 11 Republicans voting with Democrats), to strip Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of her two committee assignments.  Greene is a Georgia Republican, who frequently used social media to espouse violence against prominent Democratic politicians - including AOC, Barack Obama, and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

It kind of makes you wonder just what kind of workplace would allow such a deranged individual like her, to violently threaten the lives of fellow colleagues, and still get to work there?  Well, the answer is - one where only 11 Republicans out of 212 thought her making death threats to colleagues was a problem.


Of course, Marjorie Taylor Greene would never actually attempt to shoot any of her congressional colleagues herself.  That would simply be crazy.  The idea is - if you use enough inflammatory rhetoric, you’ll inspire some other fanatic to do it.  You know, just like Sarah Palin did with Gabby Giffords.  Problem solved!


Now, regardless of the fact that Marjorie Taylor Greene may be a fascist and a domestic terrorist, we still need to remember that she was elected by the people in the 14th Congressional District of Georgia to represent them, and Republicans like to remind us that - “that’s exactly what freedom is all about.”


Ironically, one of her main committee assignments was to the “Education Committee.”  One can only imagine what her "contributions" to education might have been - a target range replaces the school gymnasium, creationism and Bible study replaces teaching science and evolution, and of course, all classes will now begin with the Pledge of Allegiance - to the Confederate Flag of America.


The fact is, it sounds like that without all of her fancy committee appointments, Marjorie Taylor Greene may soon find that she’s basically useless as a congressperson.  Of course, judging from her violent and inflammatory history, I suppose the argument could be made that, she's been basically useless - most of her entire life.

Trump Lawyer Schoen Threatens America With Civil War

Trump Lawyer Schoen Threatens America With Civil War:  In a fiery speech, arguing that impeachment would disenfranchise Donald Trump’s supporters, defense lawyer David Schoen is being harshly criticized for his thinly veiled threat - warning that impeaching the former president could very well result in even more violence from Donald Trump’s easily enraged base. So, if I understand Schoen’s argument correctly, it sounds as if he’s implying that “if you bring Trump to trial, then that angry, violent mob who attacked the Capitol, wanting to hang Vice President Pence and kill various members of Congress, might get really, really mad again - and there will be reprisals.”   You know, we’re talking stuff like ”Nice country you have here - be a damn shame if something were to happen to it!”  In other words, Schoen’s trying to incite violence, in defense of a man who’s facing trial - over inciting violence.  They don’t teach you that in law school.   Now, is it jus...

Scientists Monitoring Near-Earth Asteroid 99942 Apophis

Scientists Monitoring Near-Earth Asteroid 99942 Apophis:   Scientists meeting this week at the 2019 Planetary Defense Conference, say they’re monitoring the 99942 Apophis asteroid which will be coming within 20,000 miles (33,000 kilometers) of the Earth’s surface in just 10 years.  The thing is, by the year 2029, Trump will likely be settling into his 4th term - so if an asteroid suddenly threatens to destroy the Earth, my guess is that after 16 years of Trump, no one will really much care. https://www.johnnyrobishcomedy.com  Oldest Human Footprint Found in the Americas Confirmed in Chile:   Researchers say a 15,600-year old footprint discovered by a student in southern Chile is believed to be the oldest human footprint ever found in the Americas.  Oddly enough, scientists say the footprint appears to be that of someone wearing size 12 Bruno Magli shoes, but because it’s from well over 15K years ago - they’re rather doubtful it has any connection to t...

Trump Returns to Do White House Coronavirus Briefings Solo

Trump Returns to Do White House Coronavirus Briefings Solo:  Three months after he abandoned the daily virus briefings and attempted to turn the country’s attention to what he described as the “great American comeback,” President Trump took the lectern in the White House briefing room alone on Tuesday, free to say whatever he wanted without any distractions from the usual bunch “sciencey nerds” behind him. And, in a rare moment of candor, Trump reluctantly admitted that the spread of the coronavirus will likely get worse before it gets better, and that people should probably wear masks.  Well said Mr President!  The fact is, most of us are already rather optimistic things will begin to get better - sometime after November 3rd. Ironically, now that Trump is finally admitting the virus is spreading fast and that people should wear masks, you’d think most of those armed militia thugs, whom Trump egged on to to out and “liberate” those Democratic run states from t...
