Congress GOP Impeachment Joe Biden

James Comer Pitches A Childish Fit When A Democrat Confronts Him With His Own Shady Business Deals

The karma police paid a visit to House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY), and he reacted as you’d expect: With anger, petulance, childish insults, and looking guilty as hell.

Referencing reports showing that Comer had engaged in land swaps with his brother, including loans Comer made to his brother, Rep. Jared Moskowitz (D-FL) suggested that Comer was guilty of the same thing he has accused President Joe Biden of doing.

“I’m happy to yield you some of my time today, Mr. Chairman, because I think you owe it to the American people to explain why you’ve gone on Fox News and told people, while the president was out of office, he had a loan with his brother, and in a way they were evading taxes. It has come out in the public that you also do business with your brother with potential loans,” Moscowitz noted.

In response, Comer began yelling:

“I would love it! You retweeted that story. Completely false. I’ve never loaned my brother one penny.”

“That story that you tweeted also said that I had a shell company. That is bullshit! I think that the problem is, you know, the White House tried to get CNN to write that story. They went around and investigated all this bullshit…that only dumb financially illiterate people pick up on, and said that it was a shell company because it was an LLC.”

“But you and [Rep. Dan] Goldman, who is ‘Mr. Trust Fund,’ continue to try to discredit — ” Comer boomed.

Moscowitz: “Reclaim my time!”

Comer became more agitated.

“No! I’m not going to give you your time back! We can stop the clock. You all continue to — you look like a Smurf here, just going around and all this stuff, now listen — ”

That’s when Moscowitz hit Comer with a verbal two-by-four:

 “Mr. Chairman, this seems to have gotten under your skin! I think the American people have lots of questions, Mr. Chairman. Perhaps you should sit, maybe, for a deposition — ”

Comer:

“I would be happy! I can sit with Hunter Biden and Jim Biden and we can go over our LLCs!”

Sure, Jim. No one believes you’d ever give a deposition under oath. There’s too big a risk you’d commit perjury within the first 10 seconds.

Here’s the video:

GOP U.S. Senate Viral Video WTF?!

WATCH: Near ‘Literal Brawl’ Starts When GOP Senator Threatens Union Leader Testifying Before Committee

In what was once known as “the greatest deliberative body on earth,” today, a Republican senator threatened to fight a union leader who was testifying before a hearing of the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee.

Teamsters President Sean O’Brien was the witness, according to Mediaite, when Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R-OK) referenced several barbs the two men have traded in recent months.

For example, O’Brien posted this in June:

That led Mullin to tell O’Brien:

“Sir, I wish you was [sic] in the truck with me when I was building my plumbing company myself and my wife was running the office because I should remember working pretty hard and long hours. ‘Pretends like he’s self-made. What a clown, fraud always has been, always will be. Quit the tough guy act in these Senate hearings. You know where to find me. Any place, any time, cowboy.”

Mullin then added: “Sir, this is a time, this is a place. You want to run your mouth. We can be two consenting adults. We can finish it here.”

O’Brien: “Okay, that’s fine. Perfect.”

Mullin: “You want to do it now?”

O’Brien, accepting the challenge: “I’d love to do it right now.”

Mullin: “Well, stand your butt up, then.”

O’Brien: “You stand your butt up.”

As Mullin stood and started to take a ring off his finger, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) intervened:

“Hold it. Stop it. Stop it. No, no. Sit down. Sit down! You’re a United States senator!”

When O’Brien asked if he could respond to what Mullin had said, Sanders insisted he couldn’t, telling him, “No, you can’t. This is a hearing.”

Here’s the video:

The greatest deliberative body on earth? Sure, until a redneck like Markwayne Mullin tries to turn it into a boxing match.

The Trump Adminstration

Joy Reid Gives Stephen Miller A Biting New Nickname That Fits Him Perfectly

You probably recall that Trump White House policy adviser Stephen Miller was one of the principal architects of the administration’s cruel immigration policy which separated children from their parents and placed them into internment caps that echoed the dark history of the United States when we placed Japanese Americans in similar housing after the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941.

If Donald Trump happens to win another term in office, Miller is expected to once again be a top adviser to Trump, perhaps even being appointed as chief of staff, which is a truly frightening thought.

Citing recent reports that a second Trump administration would feature mass deportations and massive holding camps for immigrants, MSNBC host Joy Reid noted Monday evening, “Much of what Donald Trump wants in a second term is no secret at all. The Project 2025 collection of policy proposals to give him all sorts of dictatorial powers has been in the works for years now, with the help of the Heritage Foundation.”

That’s when Reid tagged Miller with a devastating new nickname: “The white nationalist Dracula,” adding that it was Miller who devised the “draconian and cruel Trump immigration policies like the Muslim ban and separating immigrant children from their families and putting them in cages.”

“That Stephen Miller,” she added, “has even more disgusting, racist immigration plans for a second Trump term.”

The white nationalist Dracula. That’s perfect, and it certainly fits Miller, who belongs in prison with his former boss.

Jamie Raskin Has A Terrifying Prediction For What Will Happen If Trump Wins In 2024

If he happens to win a second term in office as a result of the 2024 presidential election, Donald Trump will quickly become authoritarian dictator who rules the way some of the most notorious strongmen in the world do, according to Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD).

Raskin made that prediction Sunday during and interview with MSNBC’s Jen Psaki, according to HuffPost.

Raskin began by saying a second Trump presidency would “look a lot like Vladimir Putin in Russia,” adding:

“It would look a lot like Viktor Orbán in Hungary ― ‘illiberal democracy,’ meaning democracy without rights or liberties or respect for the due process, the system, the rule of law.”
“In fact, there’s not much democracy left to it because their position is they don’t accept the integrity of any election where they lose. That is the hallmark of an authoritarian party.”

Raskin continued:

“They don’t accept elections that don’t go their ways. They refuse to disavow political violence. They embrace political violence as an instrument for obtaining power and then everything flows from the will of a charismatic politician, and that is Donald Trump in their book.”

As a final warning, Raskin told Psaki:

“We are clearly headed into a completely different form of government than any of us would recognize as continuous with the past. Right-wing authoritarian government in league with [Russia’s] Putin, [China’s] Xi, [Hungary’s] Orbán, [Brazil’s] Bolsonaro, you name it.”

The 2024 election may well be the most important in history. We cannot afford to let Trump back in office. If he does happen to win, the United States will devolve into tyranny, chaos, and fascism.

Crime Eric Trump Social Media The Trump Organization WTF?!

Eric Trump Gets Brutally Mocked For Claiming His Family’s Assets Are The ‘Mona Lisas’ Of Real Estate

Social media erupted with laughter and mockery over the weekend in response to remarks made by Eric Trump in which he suggested the Trump Organization’s properties were the “Mona Lisas” of real estate.

During a Saturday appearance on Fox “News,” Eric insisted, “Our assets are worth a fortune,” and adding:

“They’re the Mona Lisas of the real estate world.”

Despite Eric’s protestations, New York Attorney General Letitia James has already received a judgement of fraud against the Trump Organization and the company could be hit with fines and penalties that exceed a half billion dollars, which would likely lead to the complete dissolution of Trump Org.

However, it was the Mona Lisa comparison that drew the most reaction on Twitter.
