Boebert And Greene Get Humiliated For Sharing A Bogus Video Of Biden Falling Asleep

Reps. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) and Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) got caught sharing a fake video which purported to show President Joe Biden falling asleep during a meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett.

Greene used her sharing of the video to call for Biden to be removed from office:

For her part, Boebert resorted to a pathetic joke:

But as CNN fact-checker Daniel Dale noted, the video is completely bogus and comes from site that is well-known for sharing misinformation to support their right-wing agenda:

Here’s the actual video of the meeting between the two leaders:

It could not be more clear that at no point did the president doze off. He reacts to what is being said and his eyes are open throughout.

The blatant lie from Boebert and Greene shouldn’t surprise anyone. It’s their trademark. They lie about everything and both are far too lazy and ignorant to do some research on the internet before they make asses of themselves by sharing bullshit.

The two got plenty of well-deserved mockery on Twitter:

If there’s any justice in this world, both Boebert and Greene will be one-termers and quickly forgotten.

‘Circus Poodle’ Lindsey Graham Mocked By Conservative Writer For His Loyalty To Trump

A couple of weeks ago, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) called for President Joe Biden to be impeached, telling Newsmax:

“I think Joe Biden deserves to be impeached because he’s abandoned thousands of Afghans who fought with us and he’s going to abandon some American citizens because he capitulated to the Taliban to a 31 August deadline.”

Of course, this is the very same Lindsey Graham who refused to vote for the conviction and removal from office of failed, one-term former President Donald Trump on TWO separate occasions, so the senator’s thoughts on any serious issues are not exactly relevant or even welcome among anyone other than the far right-wing, tinfoil hat wearing rubes who tune into to Newsmax, OAN, and other fringe conservative media outlets.

Kathleen Parker is also a South Carolinian, and as she notes in an op-ed she penned for The Washington Post, Graham has become little more than a “circus poodle” who is willing to contort himself into any position necessary to remain in the Donald’s good graces:

“Is that you, Lindsey? The same man who staunchly defended Donald Trump through two deserved impeachments now wants to impeach a Democratic president. If bad or misinformed decisions in war times were impeachable offenses, we’d have to add a secretary of impeachment to the Cabinet.”

Graham’s current hypocrisy, Parker continues, is a mystery to nearly everyone who knows him:

“It gives me no pleasure to note Lindsey’s fall from gravitas. He represents my state. He once employed my son. I’ve praised him for courageously saying what no one else would.

“Then Trump became president of the United States, and the real Lindsey Graham was never seen again. Suddenly, he was Trump’s puppy (my puppy loves golf-cart rides, too). One day, Lindsey’s seated at the kid’s debate table saying Trump is an ‘idiot‘ on foreign policy, and to ‘make America great again’ we should ‘tell Donald Trump to go to hell.’

“The next thing you know, Lindsey and Trump are bromancing.”

The senator’s main goal in life, Parker concludes, is to remain relevant in a town where the players change with each election. And Graham the “circus poodle” can only be marginally relevant if he continues to kiss Trump’s butt on a regular basis:

“Lindsey was reelected in 2020 and doesn’t have to genuflect to the Trump base for another four to five years. But power is hard to let go. Flattery from a president, though I wouldn’t know, is likely addictive. He said as much to Leibovich: ‘I have never been called this much by a president in my life … He’s asked me to do some things, and I’ve asked him to do some things in return.’ About Trump, he added: ‘I personally like him. We play golf. He’s very nice to me.'”

Lindsey Graham was elected to represent the people of the Palmetto State. At the moment, however, he’s just an obsequious suck up to a man who is despised by a majority of the American electorate.

Maybe Lindsey should marry Trump (or at the very least agree to be his concubine) so he can constantly be in close proximity to what passes for power these days in the Republican Party.

Fox News Terrorism The Biden Administration

Psaki Says What We’re All Thinking When Asked Yet Another Asinine Question By Fox’s Peter Doocy

White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki managed to shut down Fox News correspondent Peter Doocy yet again at Friday’s daily press briefing when he asked how the terrorists who murdered 13 U.S. service members in Afghanistan yesterday would be dealt with.

Mediaite reports that Doocy asked Psaki:

“What does that look like? Is he going to order a mission to kill the people responsible or would he be satisfied if they are captured and brought to trial?”

Psaki responded:

“I think he made clear yesterday that he does not want them to live on the Earth anymore.”

For a follow-up question, Doocy inquired:

“Are we going to try to bring those known terrorists to justice before we leave the country?”

The press secretary replied:

“Peter, I think our focus right now is on doing everything we can to get the remaining American citizens who want to depart out of the country, to get our Afghan partners out of the country. This is not a preferred relationship or a situation that we would have designed if we had started from scratch. I think that’s very clear.”

Is Doocy so clueless that he doubts the prowess of the U.S. military and their ability to track down those responsible and mete out the necessary punishment? Or is he trying to suggest that President Biden isn’t capable of making a decision to order the elimination of those who killed our brave troops as they tried to evacuate people from a hellhole?

Thank you, Jen Psaki, for putting Peter Doocy in his place yet again.

Supreme Court The Biden Administration

Justice Stephen Breyer Hints He’ll Retire So His Seat Doesn’t Go To A Right-Wing Judge

Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer turned 83 earlier this month, making him the oldest member of the U.S. Supreme Court, and based on remarks he made in an interview with The New York Times, it sounds like he’s ready to leave the high court so his replacement will be made by a Democratic president.

In the Times piece, which was written by Adam Liptak, Justice Breyer noted:

He recalled approvingly something Justice Antonin Scalia had told him.

He said, ‘I don’t want somebody appointed who will just reverse everything I’ve done for the last 25 years,’” Justice Breyer said during a wide-ranging interview on Thursday. “That will inevitably be in the psychology” of his decision, he said.

His replacement, it should be noted, would likely be an African-American woman, based on remarks President Joe Biden has made in the past, saying during the 2020 campaign for the White House:

“We talked about the Supreme Court — I’m looking forward to making sure there’s a black woman on the Supreme Court to make sure we in fact get everyone represented.”

Breyer also reacted favorably to a comment made by a late chief justice when it comes to whether retirement from the court was a judicial act and should be free of political considerations:

He was asked about a remark from Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist, who died in 2005, in response to a question about whether it was “inappropriate for a justice to take into account the party or politics of the sitting president when deciding whether to step down from the court.”

“No, it’s not inappropriate,” the former chief justice responded. “Deciding when to step down from the court is not a judicial act.”

That sounded correct to Justice Breyer. “That’s true,” he said.

All of this, Aaron Blake of the Washington Post suggests, sounds like Breyer is leaning toward announcing his retirement:

“In other words, if Breyer wants to be relatively certain he wouldn’t be replaced by someone ‘who will just reverse everything I’ve done for the last 25 years,’ time is of the essence. Sticking around could mean not just a 6-to-3 conservative court, but potentially a 7-to-2 one. He’s made clear that isn’t the only consideration, but it’s notable he’s talking about it in those terms and agrees it’s fair game for him to keep an eye on who’s going to replace him.”

Imagine how angry Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) will be if Breyer does indeed step down and allow Biden to name his successor. That makes the prospect of Breyer’s retirement even sweeter.

Congress Foreign Policy GOP Joe Biden Military WTF?!

Devin Nunes Attacks President Biden For Observing A Moment Of Silence For Our Fallen Troops

For some time now, it’s been very clear that Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) is a self-promoting sack of treasonous shit who will betray his own country in his demented loyalty to fellow traitors such as failed former President Donald Trump.

And yet, despite the many disgusting things Nunes and said and done since arriving in Congress, what he said Thursday — just hours after an attack on American troops in Kabul, Afghanistan — was a new level of crassness, even for him.

During an appearance on Newsmax, Nunes was asked about the terrorist attack which killed 13 U.S. service members by host Greg Kelly. Here’s what the congressman had to say:

“My guess is it’s going to get a lot worse before it gets any better. Let’s just hope and pray that — because that’s about what we’re down to now, are hopes and prayers.

“What you saw Biden do, that I’ve never seen a president do, a moment of silence with the press? I mean, what the hell is going on in this country?”

The moment Nunes was referring to is when President Joe Biden asked for a moment of silence for the lost service members:

Why would anyone have a problem with what the president did? If Trump had done that (and he never would have, because he’s the most immoral and irreligious man to ever be elected president) Nunes would have wet himself in delight and declared him the greatest American in history.

Nunes was slammed for his remarks:

Memo to Devin Nunes: Shut up, traitor.
