Republicans Censure Liz Cheney and Label Jan 6 Insurrection ‘Legitimate Political Discourse’


The Republican National Committee voted Friday to condemn Reps. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) and Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.), for serving on the House committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol by a pro-Trump mob, claiming their behavior “has been destructive to the institution of the U.S. House of Representatives, the Republican Party and our republic,”  The resolution accused Cheney and Kinzinger of participating in a “Democrat-led persecution of ordinary citizens who engaged in legitimate political discourse.”


Gee whiz, now what I don’t get is, if the Jan 6th insurrection was only about "legitimate political discourse," one wonders why did Republican lawmakers hightail it the hell out of there like roaches after someone turns the light on, instead of sticking around in the House chamber, to "discuss" the issues with the nice folks who’d come for some of that “legitimate political discourse?”

But, I get what Republicans are saying.  Why, it’s no different than that “political discourse” we enjoyed at Pearl Harbor back in 1941, or the intriguing “discourse” folks were having while Germany was bombing the living shit out of London.  And, of course, I’m quite sure, had these insurrectionists been people of color, the RNC would have felt exactly the same towards them also. 


Anyway, on a positive note - now that Republicans have completely “banished” Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger, simply for disagreeing with the Trump-party line, they can now get back to enjoying one of their favorite pastimes - complaining about “Cancel Culture.”  


By the way, speaking of Liz Cheney, she said she harbors no grudge toward anyone in the RNC over her banishment.  In fact, just to show there are no hard feelings, she’s graciously invited them all to come out to her native Wyoming - to go hunting with her father.

Mike Huckabee Claims COVID-19 Death Risk Small and Sin Risk Lethal

Mike Huckabee Claims COVID-19 Death Risk Small and Sin Risk Lethal:   Former Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee has stirred some controversy with medical professionals by claiming that the risk of death from coronavirus is very “minimal,” but “sin is 100% lethal. Oh, really Mike?  Then how about showing me a death certificate which lists “sin” as the primary cause of death.  Of course, the fact is, sin couldn’t be 100% lethal, or a guy like me wouldn’t even be alive to write this.   On the other hand, maybe you’re on to something Mike - and sin really is lethal, and I secretly used a “ghostwriter” to write this joke. https://www.johnnyrobishcomedy.com

Trump Ordered by Jury to Pay E. Jean Carroll $83 Million

In his second trial in less than a year on the matter, a civil jury in Manhattan took only three hours to decide that disgraced former President Trump must pay $83.3 million in punitive and compensatory damages to rape victim and writer E. Jean Carroll in a drama that began in the dressing room of a New York City department store back in 1995. Gee whiz, $83 million?  Seems it turns out that even “when you're a star, they don't always let you do it.”  Anyway, so the Orange God used his big fat mouth to talk his way out of a $5 million judgment - and right into an $83 million judgment.  Now, that really takes some skill!  Talk about “The Art of the Deal!”  I’m totally impressed.  Why, its almost as if Mr. Trump and his militant, useless attorney don’t fully comprehend the basic point of “punitive damages.”   I mean, at this point, Trump defames Ms. Carroll so frequently, she’s almost gonna need to put up an electronic signboard to alert the court abo...

Trump Takes to Truth Social to Spread ‘Roomer’ About Ron DeSantis

Former president Donald Trump just shared some juicy gossip about Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on his Truth Social platform.   Trump posted, “Roomer (sic) are (sic) strong in political circles that Ron DeSanctimonious, whose Presidential run is a shambles, and whose poll numbers have absolutely crashed, putting him 3rd and 4th in some states, will be dropping out of the Presidential race in order to run, in Florida, against Rick Scott for Senate.   Now that’s an interesting one, isn’t it?” Gee, Donald Trump spreading “roomers?”  Say it ain’t so!   Now, me thinks perhaps that prestigious Wharton School of Business Trump attended might want to consider adding some basic 3rd-grade spelling classes to its curriculum.   Apparently, Trump is stalled at that level of language development where he is still spelling words phonetically.   Why his poor spelling makes him look like a real “looser.”   Frankly, I’m not sure its a wise choice for Republicans to choose ...
