Snap Shots of YOUR Republican Party, 21st Century Style

We'll see how this works out. I've long expected political violence from the Trumpists.

The fascist gloves come off one finger at a time.

Whell and his idiot friends.

It’s the Fourth of July, which means it’s time, once again, for patriotic displays of deep-rooted American traditions. Across the nation, citizens will gather to celebrate the birth of the nation with fireworks and apple pie; and they will watch, once again, as Donald Trump supporters accuse National Public Radio of inciting a treasonous uprising against the president by tweeting out the Declaration of Independence.

Listened to this this morning. A yearly tradition of NPR's for many years now.

From a time when the 4th was a day off for MOST not anything like today. We went out, over to a son's and everything was just about open and going strong.

I venture most just think it is fireworks day! Forgot if or even knew what or why.

Eight Republicans pick the worst possible place to celebrate July 4

“What does July 4th mean to me? Freedom,” Sen. Ron Johnson chirruped on Twitter on Independence Day.

For the Wisconsin Republican, it meant, specifically, the freedom to spend July 4 in Moscow with seven other Republican lawmakers posing for propaganda photos with Russian officials. On the same day it was reported in Britain that two more people had been poisoned by a Russian nerve agent British officials say came from Vladimir Putin’s regime. On the day after the Senate Intelligence Committee affirmed the U.S. intelligence community’s conclusion that Russia interfered in the election to help Donald Trump.

Yet despite this lavish display of the freedom to kowtow, they didn’t get the meeting they hoped for with Putin himself. He was busy, the Kremlin said.

So, what do we call these Red Square Republicans? My interlocutors on Twitter suggest “Moscow Mules.” Or, given the position they put themselves in before our masters in Moscow, perhaps they should be called the Prostrate Eight: Sens. Richard C. Shelby (Ala.), Steve Daines (Mont.), John Hoeven (N.D.), John Neely Kennedy (La.), Jerry Moran (Kan.), John Thune (S.D.) and Johnson, plus Rep. Kay Granger (Tex.).

I would call them idiot sycophants.

And you believe the Russians are Commies?

The GOP guys want the sanctions to lift to make it easier for the Oligarchs to transfer Russian wealth to the West.

A similarity exist with the Russian criminal connect to a section of the Tory business hustling clique in England. Londongrad rings a bell.

Manafort big hustle was with the Ukrainian Oligarchs. It is lucrative business massaging the Oligarchs.

Russian money renovated Brooklyn NY.

The Russians are not Commies, not even the Chinese despite their trappings.

Putin and those around him are crony capitalists.

It would be more accurate to say that they were commies and many, including Putin, would like to return Russia to its former "glory" when it was the driving force behind the commie USSR. Their current form of government isn't crony capitalism, it's a kleptocracy.
