Sad but true. He refused to acknowledge the potential liability for exposing our employees and even more so to their children who cannot be vaccinated yet. His attitude was if everyone is vaccinated (which we are), why worry about him since "you are all protected". Wish I could have flipped a few fingers.

Everyone forgets, for one thing, the 95% is not 100%. If vaccinated you probably won't get super sick if you do get infected, but you could pass it on.

The GOP psyops program has been very, very effective. "Believe not what you see or hear unless it comes from us, your friends.".

Speaking of critical thinking...
.. there it goes!

Its certain now that Liz Cheney will be kicked out of her #3 leadership position in the GOP/GQP. Here is Gov. Hogan's comment today:

Quote:
"I think they're concerned about retaliation from the president," Hogan said Sunday. "They're concerned about being attacked within the party. And it just bothers me that you have to swear fealty to the 'Dear Leader' or you get kicked out of the party. It just doesn't make any sense."
Quote:
Todd noted that Cheney had supported Trump while in office, particularly his 2017 tax reform bill that Stefanik voted against. According to data from FiveThirtyEight, Cheney voted with Trump's agenda nearly 93% of the time vs Stefanik, who supported it about 78% of the time.

"Well, it's sort of a circular firing squad where we're attacking members of our own party," Hogan said.
Wish more people get bothered since I am all for infighting in the GOP. Wonder what will happen to Hogan now though governors are mostly immune from national party politics.

Gov. Hogan has no chance in national Repub politics because he's not about party before country. Or in his case party before state. Now if the current GQP does a crash-and-burn and they need members to rebuild that could change.

Now here is some good news.

House GOP campaign officials withheld poor Trump poll numbers from lawmakers at recent Florida retreat: report

Quote:
The National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) did not disclose internal polling that revealed dismal numbers for former President Donald Trump in key swing districts during the House GOP retreat in April, according to two sources who spoke with The Washington Post.
Keep lying folks and also try the Muhammad Ali line (amended), "You are the Greatest'.

This will get worse once Liz Cheney gets booted out and I would imagine not very many women will take it well along with mainstream Republicans.

Let them continue their bizarre hero worship for the babbling idiot.

"They paused the Johnson & Johnson, they paused it.....because five people out of seven million......very bad, very bad......had an unfortunate result.....very bad......but only five and they paused it which might have had a slight effect on the others, I dunno. But I find it disturbing and suspicious that they paused it and not Phiza or Moderna....... Why? Only the Johnson but not Phiza or Moderna. Not the other two. Why would they pause one but not the others.......very disturbing and suspicious."

To nearly half this country, illogical word soup like this somehow makes sense.....

Just think about that for a minute.

Either way, fun for all.

"Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned"

And for good clean fun, Nancy Pelosi is trolling the Republican House members.
The conservatives in my circles have wanted Liz out for a very long time. She's in the "elite" group of Rinos that are so far left we just see them as "not so covert" democrats. You know, folks like the last two R presidential candidates before Trump - which made those two election cycles uber-stupid.

This isn't a party schism. It's a party purification.
