That Fauci hearing yesterday literally made me feel ill. I mean, here is a guy who did a job for 40+ years, is well respected amongst thinking people (ie not Trumpbots), is (or was?) actually a Republican, and he had to sit through that??
Trump / GOP pandemic failures means that you have to blane others. And that blame game has affected Fauci's life in a big way.
Who could have imagined 10 or even 5 years ago that such a clown-show could happen? It reminded me of the Nazi show trials after Hitler's plotters were caught. What the GOP will do for one depraved man is incomprehensible.
I wish Fauci would write a book and pull absolutely no punches. Then he can have a last word without morons like MTG spewing shit at him and not allowing a response.
It is weirdly a bit like the portion of Oppenheimer that centered around his hearings and trying to question his loyalty.
Yes. Will these films be shown in later years after America comes to grips with this crazy period? We can only hope.
I'm constantly amused at GOP shouting "Weaponization Of The Justice System", while at the same time decrying, and trying to interfere with various trials and judgements. Today Mike Fucking Johnson is presenting his 3-pronged attack against such things.
And some Repuke Senators are warning Judge Merchand. "Don't you dare imprison Covfefe."
Can you make this up?
Everything that the GOP is doing is.....Weaponization Of The Justice System.
This is the party of Law And Order?
I'm worried about July 11th. It might make January 6th look like a playground.
I was at first worried about violence too if Trump is convicted or put in jail, but I am starting to think its more and more likely that nothing would happen in terms of violence. I don't recall many stories about protestors outside the courthouse during and of these trials and so far, not a peep of violence.
You add the fact that its very likely Trump is not ever sentenced to any confinement, and I don't think there will be any riots. Jan 6 was a riot based upon opportunity. A bunch mad people that whipped themselves up into a frenzy and just wanted to break stuff. I don't see that if Trump is given a jail sentence as the numbers don't appear to show up and care anymore like they did on Jan 6. A riot of 15 people is not really a riot.
If I could insert GIFS I would use the one of the little guy on Arrested Development where he says " You can't stop us, there are tens of us here" or something similar as it shows a sparse crowd of about 15 people.
