It’s all about funding their despicable campaigns to stay in power. Funding the government be damned! Is there any difference at all between today’s Repukes and fascists?

'Republicans Call Biden Divisive While Equating Him To Satan and Hitler'
Rolling Stone

Repubs have been alternatively calling Democrats "commies, soshulists and fascists" for decades. Most Democrats just chuckled and considered the source.

Hell, nowadays the 'Q' wing of the GQP call us pedophile groomers who drink the blood of children in a pizza parlor in Rockville, Md.

The Republicans reaction to Mr. Bidens speech was remarkable. For years, they stood quietly by as Mr. Trump vilified and demonized anyone who disagreed with him by encouraging supporters to beat up protesters; demanding that his rivals be arrested; accusing critics of treason and even murder; calling opponents fascists; and retweeting a supporter saying the only good Democrat is a dead Democrat. But they rose up as one on Thursday night and Friday to complain that Mr. Biden was the one being divisive.

By their own adopted strategy, they are now faced with defending the indefensible, Trump's theft of classified documents which is threatening our national security. Furthermore their rabid response to the FBI raid have now threatened law enforcement.

So much from the party preaching law & order and national security.

They cannot deflect anymore, slinging mud (throwing shit) at the opposition is all they have left. Wish more Republicans like Barr would speak up for the Justice Department and the FBI, but not holding my breath.

Well expressed regarding Trump's theft of classified documents and empty folders, aka government secrets which impacts our national security.

Quote:
“The ideal scenario that would describe this is that the empty folders are actually for the records that are somewhere else in the boxes — that someone just didn’t keep them in the folder in the way they were supposed to, so they’re not actually out there in the wild somewhere,” said Kel McClanahan, executive director of National Security Counselors, a nonprofit law firm specializing in national security law.

“The least optimistic scenario is that they are nowhere to be found because they are already with someone else.”
And we don't even know what the lost (shred the evidence), misplaced or sold to foreign documents contain?

Trump is a crook, thief and a traitor This is the message that the Dems should plaster on Times Square billboards in NY.

Where have we heard this before?
This comment was made by PM hopeful and odds on favorite Liz Truss of UK. I know this is our Repugnant party thread, but thought this fits here.

Quote:
Ms Truss said higher earners paid more tax, so would gain more from cuts.

"Of course, there are some people who don't pay tax at all," she told the BBC. "But to look at everything through the lens of redistribution I believe is wrong because what I'm about is about growing the economy and growing the economy benefits everybody."
Trickle Down soon coming to the UK.
