GOP Insanity Containment: Beets, Gazpacho, and Lube

I think the Bundy’s are true libertarian believers and aren’t just trying to trigger the libs. I don’t believe the rest of the GOP wingnuts actually believe their crap, but it’s politically convenient for them to pretend they do.

Ordinary people, we can have ordinary people avoid the law ffs.

I she’s saying that the For the people government is not actually for the ordinary people when it comes to corrupt government officials, OK got it.

No because JB is not GOP, say it again JB is not GOP :speak_no_evil:

How do we know the fine has been paid? Sorry, gonna need to see a receipt.

Comes right out of their congressional paycheck. Unless I’m missing a joke.

The Bundys are scam artists who’ve been mooching off public lands. Libertarian bullshit is a self-serving pretext for their grift.

Ok, but how do we know that has actually happened? I’m having a hard time accepting there’s no process he can exploit for maximum drama.

Dumb question: why is the security screening able to be bypassed?

They literally don’t believe anything. “Beliefs” are too limiting, what they like are partly formed concepts that trigger a dopamine release in their brains (sense of outrage, sense of fear, sense of being cheated of what they and they alone deserve). The specifics of the partly formed concept don’t matter. It doesn’t have to be consistent with observable reality. It doesn’t have to be consistent with what they just said. The only concepts that form any traction in their minds are those that provide easy and readily available shortcuts to the dopamine hit.

And why is nobody directly asking why these people think it’s worth $5k to them to go around the metal detectors? Such a completely fucked up situation. MTG is going to shoot someone. Not exaggerating.

Who’s going to stop them? Pelosi and the Sergeant at Arms? There is absolutely zero incentive for Republicans to stop pushing and pushing the envelope of wingnuttery until AOC gets shot.

I am honestly surprised she hasn’t gotten violent with AOC yet. She clearly wants to provoke a security guard to arrest her for harassing AOC so she can weave a grievance tale out it for Republicans to lap up. She’s definitely going to manufacture a situation where AOC needs to physically push past her and then she’ll escalate it and claim AOC started the whole thing and the Deep State punished MTG for trying to save America from Communists.

Tbf, McCarthy is appalled and deeply troubled (he says). But also, this is Pelosi’s fault and the violence, threats and anti-Semitism is Democrats.

it’s deliberate fodder for the fund-raising emails.

I’m going to have nightmares about this.
