Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) got verbally trashed on social media after pushing anti-Joe Biden merchandise for the Christmas season, with some noting that the Georgia congresswoman was engaging in the very “war on Christmas” she and other conservatives have whined about for years.
Greene linked several items that can be purchased via the WinRed fundraising platform used by many in the GOP, according to HuffPost.
A Christmas $25 wrapping paper on which Biden appears as the Grinch next to the slogan “Impeach Biden” is on sale alongside a $60 sweatshirt with the message: “The Grinch Who Stole The Election” in green and “Impeach Biden” in red. Other products include a T-shirt reading, “Proud Christian Nationalist.”

Considering how your trashy book has flopped, this latest entry into your little Store of Hatred should also tank. Do you ever do anything remotely productive, Marge? Ever?
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.
Fox News host Maria Bartiromo is so terrified that President Joe Biden will win the 2024 election that she’s begging House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH) to speed up the process.
Jordan was a guest on “Sunday Morning Futures,” and was asked by the host:
“Tell us what your expectations are in terms of this investigation, and will it lead to an impeachment of Joe Biden?”
Jordan responded:
“I believe we will get the depositions and the interviews done in this calendar year and then make a decision early next year whether there are actual evidence warrants going to articles of impeachment and moving to that stage of the investigation.”
That’s when Bartiromo revealed her desperation:
“Well, the timing is important. We’ve got an election next year. President Trump is facing four indictments, and you’ve got this dereliction of duty.”
Jordan: “He said they come after him because he’s fighting for us. That is true. That’s what the swamp does. They’re going after President Trump because he kept his word, and he’s fighting for us.”
Trump kept his word? On what? The man is a pathological liar who belongs behind bars for the next 50 years.
While Republicans like to say they’re confident Trump can win in 2024, Bartiromo just made it clear they’re worried the multiply-indicted loser ex-president will only manage a victory with help if his opponent is impeached, something that happened to the Donald not once, but twice.
Just a little more than two weeks ago, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) looked and sounded pleased that Mike Johnson (R-LA) had become speaker of the House, taking a selfie with him and posting it on Twitter.
But that was before Johnson made it clear that he wasn’t about to fast-track the impeachment of President Joe Biden, which has long been a dream of Greene’s, despite the fact that Republicans have almost no evidence to warrant impeachment.
The Washington Post’s Jacqueline Alemany reported Friday that Johnson didn’t sound enthusiastic about moving forward on impeachment.
Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.), a constitutional lawyer by training, has taken a more reserved tone, both publicly and privately, urging members to conduct a thorough and fair investigation with no predetermined outcome. In a closed-door meeting with House GOP moderates this week, he indicated that there is insufficient evidence at the moment to initiate formal impeachment proceedings, according to people who attended the meeting.
“We’ll just go where the evidence goes and we’re not there yet,” Rep. Don Bacon (R-Neb.) said, paraphrasing Johnson’s comments on the inquiry at the Republican Governance Group’s weekly lunch on Tuesday. “Most of us are saying, look, we can’t even get a single Democratic vote on this right now. I think the voters will reject what they are seeing when it comes to Biden [policies] — but high crimes and misdemeanors? I don’t think we’ve seen that or enough data to really make a good case and I feel like [Johnson] really agreed with us on that.”
That didn’t sit well with Greene, who went on Twitter and attacked Johnson.
Not long ago we had a Speaker that believed in impeachment so much that he launched an inquiry without a floor vote, but you were told he was bad.
After 8 R’s and all D’s ousted him, we found checks to Joe Biden and evidence of a massive money laundering scheme and now the new guy you are told is way better doesn’t want to impeach.
Such progress.

You did not find evidence of money laundering. You don't even seem to understand what money laundering is or how it works.
You found evidence that a man cares enough about his brother to help him out when he needs money and make a loan to him, and that he was paid back for that…
House Oversight Committee chairman James Comer (R-KY) has been hyping his “big reveal” for months now, promising that he had evidence President Joe Biden had accepted bribes from foreign governments when he was vice president in the Obama administration.
However, when Comer and other Republicans held a press conference recently, they made all sorts of allegations, but were unable to provide even a scintilla of evidence that proved Biden had done anything illegal.
House Oversight Chairman James Comer laid out new details to support allegations that members of Joe Biden’s family including his son Hunter received millions of dollars in payments from foreign entities in China and Romania including when Biden was vice president, according to a memo obtained by CNN.
New bank records cited in the memo were obtained by the committee through a subpoena and include payments made to companies tied to Hunter Biden. Republicans also alleged that Hunter Biden used his familial connections to help facilitate a meeting in 2016 between a Serbian running for United Nations Secretary-General and then-national security adviser to the vice president Colin Kahl.
[…]
But the latest report does not show any payments made directly to Joe Biden, either as vice president or after leaving office.
The memo detailed payments to Biden family members and asserted that “it is not credible” that the president wasn’t aware of his family’s business efforts given the total size of the payments. It also did not show any way in which Biden’s decisions were influenced by those agreements or that he had direct knowledge of them.
And while Republicans have criticized the payments as questionable, they stopped short of calling any of the activity potentially illegal.
No connection to the president and no proof of any illegal actions by anyone. That’s about as big of a nothingburger as you’ll see in Washington, D.C.
White House assistant Ian Sams had the best take on the GOP dog and pony show: “Seriously? This was debunked literally 4 years ago.”
Seriously?
This was debunked literally *4 years ago.*
A thorough @nytimes report found: "There is no evidence that Vice President Biden acted improperly." @NBCNews also dived deep and found: "There's no evidence that Hunter or his father acted improperly or violated any laws." https://t.co/byxxx6KG8x
But perhaps the best takedown of Comer and his Republican clown allies came from Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD), who is the ranking Democrat on the Oversight Committee.
“There’s a lot of innuendo and a lot of gossip taking place, Raskin noted, “and much of it is recycled from prior claims.”
James Comer has humiliated himself and House Republicans. They have no evidence of any wrongdoing by President Biden and are merely trying to distract from the fact that their likely 2024 presidential nominee was found guilty of being a sexual predator.
