House Republicans’ bid to impeach Alejandro Mayorkas fails in US Senate
Senate Democrats dismissed the articles of impeachment as the charges failed to meet bar of ‘high crimes and misdemeanors’
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/...arges-mayorkas

Dems quickly disposed of this ridiculous piece of political theater by the disgusting Repubes. Good.

Posting this for entertainment:

Derrick Van Orden tangles with fellow Republican Matt Gaetz over threats to oust speaker

Quote:
“They’ve been trying to blackmail the Republican conference now for a long time. Just do it. Show the American people who you really are,” Van Orden said in a brief interview about the interaction.

“The American people can’t really see what takes place all the time. What they can see is a motion to vacate — trying to get rid of the speaker,” he said. “And it’ll show their true colors because they are not here to legislate. They are not serious legislators.”
Quote:
“I said people who have not been to combat and been shot at, who’ve not held one of their friends’ hands as they died, probably shouldn’t be calling other people squishes," Van Orden, a retired Navy SEAL, said. "And then he did it again and I said something along the lines of, ‘Stow it, Tubby.’”
When are going to have an Animal House style food fight in the House between the patriots aka Scum Bags.

Greene, notably, has received intense criticism in recent days from Fox News, as well as the New York Post. On Wednesday, FoxNews.com published an op-ed titled “Marjorie Taylor Greene is an Idiot,” and on Sunday, a New York Post headline denounced the Georgia congresswoman as “Moscow Marjorie.”

Nazi lunacy is bad for business. I think a consensus is emerging on that idea. Not a moment too soon!

Trump running the GOP head office may have been the final wake-up call.

I'm not betting on it. They're still afraid of him. At least until the third or fourth trial I think.

I think this is more to do with the speakership. Faux and other right wing media do not want to see Johnson deposed now since they are afraid that the election will be a MAGA shit show (Gym is the front runner but he does not have the votes from moderate Repubs) or if they are not careful, a handful of mainstream Republicans will help elect Jeffries. Doubt that will make Trump happy because I believe they have hopes of the House electing Trump.
