They would fall into the genre of Tragicomedy pretty easily
Justice Dept. Adds Two Top Prosecutors to Matt Gaetz Case
The move by the department is a sign of the complex and high-stakes nature of the sex trafficking investigation into Representative Gaetz.
Marjorie Taylor Greene Calls D.C. Jail Section Holding Jan. 6 Rioters 'Patriot Wing'
Gohmert’s name appeared in a report detailing some of the evidence that’s come before the U.S. select committee that is investigating the January 6 attack on the Capitol.
Two organizers of the January 6 rally that preceded the storming of the building say that in the weeks before the event, they met with seven members of Congress or their staffers who were “intimately involved” in planning the demonstration. One of the seven who they say they met, or met the staffers of, is a Texas congressman: Gohmert. Other representatives were Lauren Boebert of Colorado, Paul Gosar of Arizona, and Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia.
Paul Gosar (R-AZ) has shared a photoshopped anti-immigrant anime video that shows him killing Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY).
What could have been a simple high school government lecture on civic duty and participation from a local congressman instead became a Covid-19 misinformation fest worthy of a primetime slot on Fox News. Congressman Bob Good (R-Va.) encouraged a group of high school students to defy a statewide school mask mandate, and he spread lies about vaccines and how the virus spreads, the Rappahannock News reported.
“If nobody in Rappahannock complies [with the mask mandate], they can’t stop everyone,” Good told a Rappahannock County High School government class of approximately 20 students this week. “If I was ya’ll, I’d say none of ya’ll wear a mask. What are they gonna do? They’re still going to have school.”
What a bunch of Geniuses

Paul Gosar’s own siblings have repeatedly spoken out and warned us that he is an extremist. Six of them, if six people tell you their own damn brother is dangerous believe them.

you’re talking about the disgusting video where he showed a likeness of himself striking biden? was it with a sword?
thats unbelievably inappropriate, but it’s not threatening to kill him, unless he said something like “ Biden this is what’s coming.”.
Kathy Griffin joked about cutting Trumps head off. She didn’t threaten to do so.
mind boggling he thought that was ok though.

agreed, a sitting member of congress should be held to a higher standard. he deserves to be punished.
but unless you’d say Griffin threatened Trumps life, you can’t say this idiot threatened Biden’s life. And I’d bet big that spence dismissed griffins actions as a tasteless but harmless joke. but more people know who she is, than this idiot congressman.
we always agree when i’m bashing republicans. never, ever when i’m bashing democrats.

Jim not all threats are equal
And this is where you and I disagree
That everything is equal . All the time
What’s the point?
I have said it before sometimes your arguments lack nuance .
That’s why the FBI will conduct a Threat assessment and they will decide if it’s a threat or not . It’s what they do

i believe biden won.
seems to me, that people are figuring out all by themselves, the dystopian nature of today’s liberalism. not everybody watches foxnews wayne, on a good night they get 3 million viewers, which is 1% of the us population.
you think republicans are fabricating the sense of dystopia. you better hope you’re right.
When VA parents see that their children are being told to read a book in elementary school called “Not My Idea”, which literally equates whiteness with satanism, and then those parents are told that critical race theory isn’t being taught in school and that they’re therefore lying…well if democrats are doing that, can they really be surprised when they lose elections?
is that a winning strategy?

And the only why to save American
Is to install an Authoritarian leader who will drain the swap ( code for removing the Congress a taking over the judiciary and if need be put the military on the streets…

is it lying to say that racially divisive gargage is taught in VA public schools? all those parents, some of whom are registered democrats, are lying?
wayne, you cannot accept that any criticism of democrats is accurate. it all must be lying.
“drain the swamp is code for removing congress”…
“taking over the judiciary” - i’m sorry, trump isn’t allowed to fill judicial vacancies?
multiple presidents have “put military on the streets.”
now who’s lying? now who’s spreading nonsensical hysteria? You.
Trump nominated Brett Kavanaugh, the closest living adult to Wally Cleaver you’ll ever find. And democrats painted him as a monster.
So i’m not sure where you get the idea that only republicans engage in hyperbole. I remember plenty of liberal hysteria during the trump years.

maybe you have seen the latest on this
A hit piece that was first reported by the New York Times unraveled this week as the source who accused Gaetz of sex trafficking pled guilty in federal court to one count of wire fraud. The faux-scandal originated from claims that Gaetz was engaged in a sexual relationship with a 17 year-old. Vox News Reports–
“Prosecutors are reportedly investigating whether Gaetz had a sexual relationship with a 17-year-old and paid for her travel, and payments he and a close associate made to young adult women he had relationships with.”
This week, the smear campaign that was reported by the liberal media went up in flames as Stephen Alford, 62, pled guilty to one count of wire fraud in relation to the accusations. The Washington Examiner Reports–
“A Florida man pleaded guilty to one count of wire fraud after attempting to obtain $25 million from the family of Rep. Matt Gaetz, federal prosecutors announced on Monday.
Stephen Alford, 62, appeared in federal court in Pensacola and admitted to orchestrating an extortion scheme against Don Gaetz, the congressman’s wealthy father, and making false promises that he could secure a presidential pardon for his son, who has been linked to a sex-trafficking investigation.”
Alford has a criminal history, including a previous conviction for fraud. After pleading guilty to wire fraud in the Gaetz case, his sentence carries a maximum penalty of 20 years in federal prison. He could also face a fine of up to $250,000.
Earlier this year, Project Veritas exposed a CNN staffer saying that they will continue to target Gaetz as he is a “problem for the Democratic Party”. “If the agenda, say, is to get, like, Matt Gaetz right now, he’s like this Republican,” Chester began. “He’s a problem for the Democratic Party because he’s so conservative, right? And he can cause a lot of hiccups in passing of laws and whatnot. So, it would be great for the Democratic Party to get him out. So we’re going to keep running those stories to keep hurting him and make it so that it can’t be buried and, like, just settled outside of court. And just like, you know, if we keep pushing that, it’s helping us.” Said Charles Chester, a CNN staffer.

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.
1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!
It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.
