MAGA GOPers are nothing but radical nihilist hypocrites. One of President Donald Trump’s lesser known but profoundly damaging legacies will be the explosive rise in the national debt that occurred on his watch. The financial burden that he’s inflicted on our government will wreak havoc for decades, saddling our kids and grandkids with debt. The national debt has risen by almost $7.8 trillion during Trump’s time in office. That’s nearly twice as much as what Americans owe on student loans, car loans, credit cards and every other type of debt other than mortgages, combined, according to data from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. It amounts to about $23,500 in new federal debt for every person in the country. Trump had the third-biggest primary deficit growth, 5.2% of GDP, behind only George W. Bush (11.7%) and Abraham Lincoln (9.4%). Bush, of course, not only passed a big tax cut, as Trump has, but also launched two wars, which greatly inflated the defense budget. Lincoln had to pay for the Civil War. By contrast, Trump’s wars have been almost entirely of the political variety. Our national debt is now at its highest level relative to our economy since the end of World War II. After the war ended, the extraordinary military expenses disappeared, a postwar recovery began and the debt began to fall rapidly relative to the size of the economy. www.propublica.org/article/national-debt-trumpAnd this explains why it's now imperative to cut social security and Medicare, while leaving all Trump tax cuts in place.

Shocker! The party/cult that hates government is unable to govern. Pathetic radical nihilist cultists. When the history of the "Republican" Party/cult of the 21st century is written, it'll make the McCarthy Era look like a walk in the park.

Rudy cruising for a contempt citation and further sanctions. From America's Mayor to America's Senile Deadbeat. Rudy Giuliani has failed to comply with a federal judge's order to turn over evidence and pay legal fees to election workers he defamed, according to a new court filing. In papers filed Thursday, lawyers for Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss say Giuliani "failed to take any of the actions" a federal judge ordered him to carry out by Wednesday, including paying $89,000 in attorneys' fees for the two election workers. www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/giuliani-snubbed-judges-order-defamation-case-election-worker-says-rcna111484

In a leaderless House, the ‘clowns’ stumble toward a shutdown Review some of the labels House Republicans hurled at each other over the last few days: “Clown show.” “Clowns.” “Foolishness.” “Weak.” “Terribly misguided.” “Selective amnesia.” “Stupidity.” “Failure to lead.” “Lunatics.” “Disgraceful.” “New low.” “Enabling Chairman Xi.” “People that have serious issues.” “Pathetic.” www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2023/09/22/gaetz-mccarthy-shutdown-house-gop-deadlock/passed! Head Clown weighs in. Moron malignant narcissist the cult leader of souless "Republicans". Former President Trump called on Republicans in Congress to "defund all aspects" of the "weaponized" Biden administration ahead of the Sept. 30 government shutdown deadline, declaring it their "last chance" to halt his "political prosecutions." www.axios.com/2023/09/21/trump-lobs-new-grenade-into-gops-government-shutdown-debateHoyaTalk "Republicans" - your party/cult!

Fascist MAGA GOP liars - they can't handle the truth. Academics, universities and government agencies are overhauling or ending research programs designed to counter the spread of online misinformation amid a legal campaign from conservative politicians and activists who accuse them of colluding with tech companies to censor right-wing views. The escalating campaign — led by Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) and other Republicans in Congress and state government — has cast a pall over programs that study not just political falsehoods but also the quality of medical information online. Academics and government scientists say the campaign also is successfully throttling the years-long effort to study online falsehoods, which grew after Russian attempts to interfere in the 2016 election caught both social media sites and politicians unawares. Interviews with more than two dozen professors, government officials, physicians, nonprofits and research funders, many of whom spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss their internal deliberations freely, describe an escalating campaign emerging as online propaganda is rising. www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2023/09/23/online-misinformation-jim-jordan/

Hypocrisy is not uncommon in American politics, cutting across issues, ideology, and regions. These days, however, conservative Republicans are reaching new heights — or depths — in placing political opportunism ahead of proclaimed principles. ‘That government is best which is closest to the people’ has been a long-standing Republican mantra. This year right-wing legislatures in Texas and Mississippi are taking over local school systems in Houston and local courts in Jackson. Judicial activism, or “legislating from the bench,” has been a favorite conservative target — until, that is, the Supreme Court got packed with its current majority of right-wing activists, who’ve had little scruple brushing aside precedents to create new law. thehill.com/opinion/campaign/3953252-opportunism-hypocrisy-graft-oh-my-guiding-lights-of-the-new-gop/

The self-proclaimed "pro-life" party? Life begins at conception and ends at birth. Bending to far right, McCarthy pushes steep safety net cuts in shutdown battle Cutting housing subsidies for the poor by 33 percent as soaring rents drive a national affordability crisis. Forcing more than 1 million women and children onto the waitlist of a nutritional assistance program for poor mothers with young children. Reducing federal spending on home heating assistance for low-income families by more than 70 percent with energy prices high heading into the winter months. With days left before the government shuts down, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) has embraced steep reductions to the U.S. safety net in an attempt to appease far-right Republicans’ demands for lower spending. www.washingtonpost.com/business/2023/09/26/mccarthy-conservatives-cut-spending/

Fraudster, rapist, defamer, serial liar, insurrectionist, compromiser of national security, friend of dictators and autocrats.
Yup that's the guy you want to lead the "Republican" party/cult. What a collective group of hypocritical amoral losers and racists.

Where is the "concern" about "cognitive decline" for your guy? We know that you folks are typically very even-handed and consistent with regard to elected officials insofar as evaluating them independent of their policies, amirite?

Watch a "Republican" clown moron, Jason Smith, fumble around and not even realize that Biden wasn't even in office in 2017. Nor was he even a candidate for office. Rep. Jason Smith (R-MO) was pressed on Wednesday to clarify the timeline he laid out during a press conference alleging a connection between President Joe Biden and Hunter Biden’s overseas business dealings – a key aspect to the GOP proving their corruption allegations against the president. “Can you explain the timing then of the August 6th WhatsApp message? Why is that evidence of some wrongdoing?” asked NBC’s Ryan Nobles. “I’m not an expert on the timeline. I would love to have President Biden and his family to tell us about all the timelines,” Smith replied. “But if he’s not the president or the vice president at that time, where’s the wrongdoing? He wasn’t even a candidate for president at that time,” shot back Nobles. “He was a candidate,” Smith replied. “On August 6th of 2017?” Nobles pressed. “Apparently, apparently, what source are you with?” Smith replied, deflecting. “I’m with NBC,” Nobles shot back. www.mediaite.com/politics/you-presented-it-republican-congressman-crumbles-when-pressed-by-nbc-reporter-on-his-timeline-of-biden-allegations/

Burn it to the effing ground. Ashbin of history for you MAGA chknst ahooles. A contingent of far-right House Republicans are plotting an attempt to remove Kevin McCarthy as House speaker as early as next week, a move that would throw the chamber into further disarray in the middle of a potential government shutdown, according to four people familiar with the effort who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss private talks. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/09/28/kevin-mccarthy-tom-emmer-government-shutdown-motion-vacate/
