obviously when you compare the parties that way, the democrats will look better. but it’s not an accurate ( or even rational) way to compare things, and very few people buy into it.

The Squad of Mensa candidates is a quote from a post of yours
Good luck with Gang Greene

“the squad” has a lot of influence within the democrat party. they’re the only reason why the infastructure bill wasn’t passed months ago. it passed the senate, the moderates in the house wanted it, the squad managed to hijack it and connect it to the 3.5 trillion social spending bill.

what has marjorie taylor greene done to alter the conservative agenda?

she’s a nook and a jerk.

The squad or Manchin and Sinema stopped it?
The Gang Greene drives the agenda in the house and McCarthy is to much of a wimp to do anything because the Stable Genius praises them.
Now explain Gohmert, Gaetz, Gosar, Boebert, Jordan etc and how McCarthy has promised to reinstate anyone tossed from committees IF they win back the house.
Just who’s running the freak show for the Republicans, leadership or the wackos
So far the Trumplicans have voted against lower insulin prices, pandemic relief, infrastructure, capitol police, violence against women and the stacked Supreme Court will likely negate Rowe vs Wade.
You claim the Trumplicans have a record to run on….

So explain this logic-
How you square demanding freedom of choice when it comes to vaccines BUT NOT freedom of choice when it comes to reproductive rights?
Only the unborn count?

if you’re talking about the infastructure bill, the squad stopped it. it passed the senate, which is where manchin and sinema are. The squad denied Pelosi the votes for it to pass the house, so it stalled in the house until
the democrats panicked at what happened in VA and NJ.

manchin and sinema stalled the 3.5T social spending bill. not the infastructure bill.

But some how you implied the Squad has power

But insist your crazy’s are just Crazy

Jim look at their fund raising it’s off the charts hate and fear equals campaign donations


Everything I heard of Q, I hope that this is real, because it only means America is getting stronger and better," she said, adding that QAnon followers were "only motivating, and encouraging and bringing people together stronger. And, if this is real, then it could be really great for our country."

MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE: I ONLY BELIEVE SOME OF WHAT QANON SAYS ABOUT DEMS BEING SATANIC PEDOPHILE CANNIBALS,


Cawthorn was nominated to the U.S. Naval Academy by Rep. Mark Meadows and that his “plans were derailed” by the 2014 auto accident. However, Cawthorn testified in a 2017 deposition that he had already been rejected by the Naval Academy before his accident.

He also claimed his friend left him to die after the accident

He was my brother, my best friend. And he leaves me in a car to die in a fiery tomb," Cawthorn said of the accident. "He runs to safety deep in the woods and just leaves me in a burning car as the flames start to lick my legs and curl up and burn my left side." Cawthorn also claimed he was pronounced dead at the scene, but thanks to "adrenaline or divine intervention, I definitely believe it's the latter, I had a deep inhale of breath."

The problem, of course, is that none of it was true. According to Ledford, he saved Cawthorn's life. "That statement he made was false," Ledford told The Washington Post. "It hurt very badly that he would say something as false as that. That is not at all what happened. I pulled him out of the car the second that I was able to get out of the car." And, according to a court deposition, Cawthorn claims he has no memory from the accident. And per a police accident report and Florida Highway Patrol records, Cawthorn was "incapacitated and in critical condition" but was not declared dead.

The GOP has an integrity problem and Trump leads by example and the rest follow
