Eric Swalwell Trolls Tulsi Gabbard After She Announces She’s Leaving The Democratic Party

In a move that surprised absolutely no one, former Hawaii Rep. Tulsi Gabbard announced this morning that she has decided to leave the Democratic Party.

Gabbard made her declaration in a video and series of tweets in which she explained her decision.

I can no longer remain in today’s Democratic Party – which is now under the complete control of an elitist cabal of warmongers driven by cowardly wokeness. The Democrats of today divide us by racializing every issue, stoking anti-white racism, and are actively working to undermine our God-given freedoms enshrined in our Constitution.

The Democrats of today are hostile to people of faith and spirituality. They demonize the police and protect criminals at the expense of law-abiding Americans. The Democrats of today believe in open borders and weaponize the national security state to go after political opponents. Above all else, the Democrats of today are dragging us ever closer to nuclear war.

Safe to say the reaction by the vast majority of Democrats (probably 99.9%) is, Good riddance to bad Russian trash.

After all, this is the very same Tulsi Gabbard who has repeatedly spouted Kremlin talking points and was identified as a Russian asset by Hillary Clinton back in 2019:

“I’m not making any predictions, but I think they’ve got their eye on somebody who is currently in the Democratic primary and are grooming her to be the third-party candidate. She’s the favorite of the Russians.”

And indeed, Gabbard has been a fervent fan of Russia and it’s murderous leader, Vladimir Putin, who invaded another sovereign nation and is now getting his ass kicked by Ukrainian military forces.

For example, consider this tweet from Gabbard shortly after Russia invaded Ukraine

“This war and suffering could have easily been avoided if Biden Admin/NATO had simply acknowledged Russia’s legitimate security concerns regarding Ukraine’s becoming a member of NATO, which would mean US/NATO forces right on Russia’s border.”

Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) said what needed to be said about Gabbard’s departure from the Democratic Party, trolling her and making it clear no one will miss her in the least.

Game, set, and match Eric Swalwell.

Steve Bannon Gets Masterfully Trolled To His Face During Wednesday Court Appearance

Former Trump administration chief strategist Steve Bannon had to make another court appearance today in the matter of the two contempt of Congress charges that were filed against him by the Justice Department for his refusal to obey a lawful subpoena from the January 6 House Select Committee.

Bannon was trying to get a judge to dismiss those contempt charges, and he spoke with reporters while he was preparing to enter the court, telling them:

“We believe in free and fair and transparent elections! And we’re winning everywhere! This is going to be a massive blowout like 1932. You’re witnessing, right now, a political realignment like 1932. And we will govern for 100 years after we win 100 seats.”

A reporter asked:

“Do you want to govern as a one-party kind of total government? Do you want to destroy the Democratic Party?”

Bannon replied:

“Well, I believe that we will destroy the Democratic Party as a national political institution. A populist uprising of Hispanics, African-Americans and working-class people is before us!”

Yeah, sure thing, traitor.

But the best part of Bannon’s impromptu presser was the man who stood behind him holding a sign that read “FAILED COUP.”

Bannon is under the delusion that he’s still got power and relevance. He doesn’t, and when he’s found guilty and sentenced to federal prison, he’ll have even less.

The GOP Attempted To Troll President Biden And Wound Up With Egg On Their Face

The Republican Party can’t quite decide who exactly they are.

Are they the GOP of old? It doesn’t appear so.

Is today’s GOP really the Party of Trump, a wholly-owned subsidiary of one man’s anger and ego? That certainly seems to be the case.

However, today’s Republican Party doesn’t excel at trolling the current president, Joe Biden, as they so humiliatingly proved with a tweet about the seizure of fentanyl at the U.S.-Mexico border that only served to reinforce that Biden and his team are doing exactly what he promised to do: Keep us safe and treat every American with the respect they deserve.

Here’s the tweet in question:

Of course, the key word in the tweet that completely undercuts the GOP’s desperate attempt at slamming Biden is that the 839 pounds of fentanyl was “seized” at the southern border. That means it didn’t make it to the streets and lives were saved as a result.

The drugs aren’t “flowing” if they’re being interdicted. Do Republicans understand that? If so, they would have never sent out that tweet, which only serves to make them look completely clueless.

Twitter had a field day with the GOP’s complete lack of awareness:

Tucker Carlson Complains About ‘Androgynous’ M&Ms And Gets Masterfully Trolled By Eric Swalwell

It’s been a busy week in the news, filled with developments in the January 6 investigation and the ongoing debate over voting rights legislation which is being held hostage by Senate Republicans (assisted by two Democrats, Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema), so you may have missed the childish hissy fit pitched by Fox News host Tucker Carlson over M&M candy being made “androgynous.”

You simply can’t make this shit up. It’s 2022 and truth always winds up being stranger (and dumber) than fiction.

Newsweek notes that Carlson went on an extended rant during his show Friday evening on the subject of genderless M&Ms:

Mars announced on Thursday that the company would make changes to M&Ms as part of its “global commitment to creating a world where everyone feels they belong, and society is inclusive.”

Carlson said: “Bet you didn’t think M&Ms were pushing intolerance, but they were, they’ve been changed.”

“You’re seeing those changes on the screen,” he said as images of the rebranded M&Ms were displayed.

OK, Tucker. Just let it go. No need to make a big production number out of candy. But he proceeded to do exactly that, remarking:

“The green M&M, you will notice, is no longer wearing sexy boots. Now she’s wearing sensible sneakers. Why the change? Well according to M&Ms, ‘We all win when we see more women in leading roles.’

“Because leading women do not wear sexy boots, leading women wear frumpy shoes. The frumpier the better. That’s the rule.”

Please, gods of TV, make it stop. Make it stop!!

It did not stop, as Tucker prattled on:

“The other big change is that the brown M&M has ‘transitioned from high stilettos to lower block heels,’ also less sexy. That’s progress. M&Ms will not be satisfied until every last cartoon character is deeply unappealing and totally androgynous.

“Until the moment you wouldn’t want to have a drink with any one of them. That’s the goal. When you are totally turned off, we’ve achieved equity. They’ve won.”

Wait a minute. Time out! Tucker Carlson was turned on by candy? Guess that shouldn’t surprise us since he’s the heir to the Swanson frozen dinner fortune, but did he need to share his perversion with the world? Of course he did; Fox demands such depravity for their sexually repressed viewers.

However, one good thing did come out of Carlson’s lunacy: The response from Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA), who fired back at the Fox host with this magnificent piece of online trolling:

Boom! Mic drop. Game, set, and match Eric Swalwell. Thank you for making this whole thing laughable, congressman.

Don Jr. Tried To Troll Eric Swalwell – And Got His A*s Handed To Him

Some people never learn.

Such is the case with Donald Trump Jr., who thought he’d troll Rep. Eric Swalwell on Twitter Tuesday, only to wind up with egg on his face when the congressman fired back and utterly destroyed the son of the failed, one-term former president.

The mention of China is a reference to an attempt by a Chinese spy to get involved in a romantic relationship with Swalwell, as the Washington Post reported in December of 2020:

U.S. officials don’t think Fang ever got classified information as she cozied up to politicians, including from Swalwell. He is not accused of any wrongdoing. After U.S. intelligence officials briefed him in 2015 on their concerns about Fang, he cut off ties with her. Swalwell said in a statement to Axios this week that he provided information to the FBI about her and that he hasn’t interacted with her in six years. Fang has left the country.

Swalwell had the perfect comeback for Junior:

Others then joined the online debate and took turns mocking Don Jr.
