The hypocrisy never ceases to amaze. Why do so many idiotic Repubes consistently vote against their own interests?
I know repubs that lambast the security net while also getting a check from the govt for growing corn.

Take care of your population and good things happen.

Better than getting a check not to grow a crop. At least the farmers are working and the taxpayers are getting something for their money.

A Tennessee man charged by New York prosecutors with pretending to be a Manhattan lawyer and taking thousands from would-be clients was the co-founder of Students for Trump, a national group that mobilized college campuses in the run-up to the 2016 election and plans to do so again in 2020.

John Lambert, 23, was arrested last week and charged by Southern District of New York prosecutors with wire fraud for having invented a lawyer persona named “Eric Pope” that he used to solicit legal work online.

Devin Nunes' next act: Using the legal system to go after local news and raise cash
Thought the defrocked former House Intelligence chair was done being a weird Trump flunky? Not even close

https://www.salon.com/2019/04/16/dev...nd-raise-cash/

Quote:
Nunes raised $1.1 million for his 2020 re-election during the first three months of the year, buoyed by repeated appearances on Fox News to rail against what he has called the “biggest perpetrator of fake news.” Nunes’ frivolous lawsuit is not about actually winning. Its purpose is so Fox News can paint him as a victim of the mainstream media. Even Fox News' own Judge Andrew Napolitano has said Nunes' suits stand no chance. His complaint may never get to the judgment phase, but it will certainly serve its purpose.
Using Fox "News" and its moronic viewers to raise cash. Diabolical. The poor stooges.

Interesting story. Munchkin was involved in the destruction of Sears, an American institution. MAGA!

Other defendants who allegedly benefited from the transfers include Fairholme Capital Management LLC, Seritage Growth Properties Inc. and U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, whom the complaint says was an investor and former vice chairman at ESL.

Roger Stone: 'God is using me to expose certain epic truths at trial'

http://amp.washingtontimes.com/news/...-certain-epic/

Quote:
Roger Stone, indicted former Trump campaign adviser, claimed Tuesday to be divinely chosen “to expose certain epic truths at trial.”

In a social media post soliciting donations for his defense fund, Mr. Stone described a recent epiphany involving his pending federal court case.

“Just a few days ago, it was as though a light went on,” Mr. Stone said on Instagram. “I realized that we are His instruments on this earth and when we are willing He calls upon us to help Him accomplish certain things. I realized He has a purpose for me in my current challenge.

“I know that God is using me to expose certain epic truths at trial and I know that as I walk each day in His Light and listen to the guidance of that still small voice within, the whisper of God, I will be victorious in His name,” he said. “My strength, my confidence comes from Him. I have stepped from the darkness into the Light and I will prevail. The course of history is about to be changed through His guidance. I now know exactly what I must do.”
Uh huh. Hey Whell, you on board this train?
