KY Congressman Claims Violent Overthrow of US Govt OK if 30-40% Approve


In a video posted to Twitter by Right Wing Watch, U.S. Congressman Thomas Massie (R-KY) appeared on far-right extremist Tim Pool’s YouTube channel, to declare Americans need to own a "sufficient" amount of weaponry to overthrow the government.  Rep. Massie added that once "30 to 40 percent agree" the nation is living under “tyranny,” then a violent overthrow of the US Government becomes necessary.  In response, host Tim Pool, who has YouTube’s largest “current affairs channel” with daily viewers in the millions, told Rep. Massie he believes the 2nd Amendment protects the individual’s right to own nuclear and biological weapons.

No kidding?  I guess that means once Republicans are back in power, rather than every household getting some cheap, COVID-19 home test kit like Democrats are passing out, they’ll instead apparently be receiving a free “hydrogen bomb.”  Of course, it’s a little late to be considered a Christmas gift, but it’s still an awfully nice gesture on the part of Republicans.  


And, speaking of Christmas, I should mention that good old Rep. Massie is also quite well known for having posed for a lovely photo this past Christmas with his entire family - including toddlers - all clutching assault weapons.  I mean, what could better express the concept of “peace on earth, goodwill toward men,” than a family pointing assault weapons at you in a holiday photograph?


That said, as Tim Pool, Rep. Massie, and just about any MAGA half-wit (who still has most of his teeth) can tell you, “it’s every citizen’s constitutional right to have their own ‘anti-aircraft, missile defense system.’  Why, just how do you suppose Get. Washington and patriots were able to defend our airports during the Revolutionary War?”  


Now, to be completely fair, I’m quite certain many Trump supporters would say they “don’t need no hydrogen bomb or missile defense system,” and that they’d be perfectly happy with just a “rocket launcher.”  Besides, I’m sure Rep. Massie would be the first to tell you, that when he advocates the “violent overthrow of the United States,” he doesn’t mean that in any sort of “bad way.”

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...

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...

Former Trump National Security Advisor Warns ‘Deep State’ Putting COVID Vaccine in Salad Dressing

Former Trump National Security Adviser Michael Flynn, who was fired and then prosecuted for lying to the FBI about his contacts with Russia before being ultimately pardoned by Trump, is now sliding further into the QAnon conspiracy world, telling the hosts of an online show dedicated to COVID and election fraud conspiracies - that he has heard the “Deep State” is attempting to “sneak coronavirus vaccine into salad dressing.” Now, I have no idea where Gen. Flynn got this information, but my guess is it was probably a text from Mike Lindell or Rudy Giuliani, alerting him to the “hidden dangers of salad dressing.”  Or, it could have been Nicki Minaj for all I know.  After all, she does have another cousin who has a friend in Timbuktu.  Word on the street has it the “Deep State” will initially start with “Ranch Dressing” to vaccinate the cowboys, then move on to “Russian Dressing,” to get the rest of Trump’s supporters. Anyway, I hate to rain on Gen. Flynn’s conspiracy the...
