McCarthy's latest marching orders handed to him by the Freedumb caucus are:

1. Impeach Biden.
2. Shut down the US government.

Otherwise Gymbo & Co. will take back the gavel, break the handle and hand it back to Kevin. Even a penance at MAL will not cleanse him of his guilt.

Lies and damned lies, faithfully regurgitated by our boy Whell.

And this comes just days after the FBI agent in charge of the investigation also said that the IRS "whistleblower" testimony was bullshit.

This "impeachment" is being driven by Trump and it follows his well-established pattern of demanding the start of an investigation without merit such that he and wingnut media can rant and rave about it. He did it in his "perfect phone call" with Zalensky and with his Big Lie ("Just say that the election was corrupt and leave the rest to me and the R. Congressmen.”)

What's crazy is that he is using the same lie (i.e., Burisma) that resulted in his first impeachment and has been debunked numerous times. Truth and facts are unimportant. Getting wingnut media to pick it up and play along is what it's all about (notwithstanding Fox losing $3/4 billion already for having done so).

Rudy Giuliani 'may have been compromised' by the Kremlin, and FBI leaders didn't care, alleges special agent Johnathan Buma

Funny how morons like Whell are so eager to believe Russian propaganda. Whell’s motives here are highly suspect.

Yet this guy's bosses prevented him from further investigating Rudy's Russian antics in favor of a Hunter Biden snipe hunt. Jordan and Comer were told about it, but dismissed any concern that their follies could be based up Russian disinfo.

‘Fictitious' facts and ‘imagined' history: GOP Rep. Ken Buck slams Biden impeachment effort
https://www.politico.com/news/2023/0...biden-00116396

Yet you promote every lie as fact, Whell. Why? What exactly are your motivations? You pretend you’re not MAGA, but that’s also a lie, no doubt. You’re as truthful as your hero Donny.

The striking hypocrisy of Republicans’ righteousness over Hunter Biden
https://www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnbc-...ily-rcna105273

Quote:
But Republicans have shown no interest in investigating Trump’s children. “I have been vocal that I think that what Kushner did crossed the line of ethics,” House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., told CNN's Jake Tapper last month. “But … it happened after he left office. Still no excuse, Jake, but it happened after he left office. And Jared Kushner actually has a legitimate business.”

Progressive ethics watchdog Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington tweeted shortly after, “Talk all you want about nepotism and conflicts of interest, but you’re not serious people if you don’t want to investigate Jared Kushner.”
Sounds like Comer and his fellow Repubes are about as unserious as you, huh Whell? Despicable buffoons, each and every one of you.

Hunter Biden sues IRS, claims whistleblower agents 'targeted and sought to embarrass' him by discussing his tax returns
https://www.businessinsider.com/hunt...rns-2023-9?amp

Hey Whell, remember the huge stink your Dear Leader raised when his tax returns were subpoenaed (legitimately), how he fought tooth and nail against them being released? You supposedly supported his efforts. Do you support Hunter in this, or is it pure politics with you? I’m pretty sure we know the answer.

House Republicans clash with Attorney General Garland, accusing him of favoring Hunter Biden
https://apnews.com/article/garland-j...32f1b75343d941

Repubes show once again that, like Whell, they are more than willing to lie, misrepresent, obfuscate and make asses of themselves to score points with the MAGA morons.

And watch American conservatives, not just ignoramuses like whell but every fucking one of them, cheering Trump's lawsuit against judge Juan Manuel Merchan, the sitting judge in Trump's New York fraud case.

This country is so fucked up. And it's not just about racist, xenophobic Trumpism. The reason why the vast majority of EU countries have not ended up with threats to their democratic systems as this country has is not because they don't have a Donald Trump. There are plenty of wealthy autocratic/plutocratic "Donald Trump" types in Europe. It is because those countries don't have electorates that are half full of assholes.
