I hope the next time the Republicans bring up the whistleblower everybody in that room should stand up one at a time and say ā€œI am the whistleblower.ā€

Itā€™d make for good TV.

So how does it work if Schiff wants Nunes to testify? Does Gym take over for a day?

According to Snopes the Lewinsky tweet is 1000% fake but according to Trumpers Snopes is controlled by democrats to spread lies so ipso facto the tweet is real I guess.

My first time making a gif overlay, but your idea was too good to pass up

The GOP position is apparently that theyā€™ll vote to convict Trump as soon as the Dems stop catching him in the act and let him finish rigging the election. And, hey, if it gives them a permanent trifecta due to riggage, well thatā€™s just how it goesā€¦ Either they get to rig the election and stay in power or they get to keep trying without being punished.

Thatā€™s just how democracy works!

Remember Glenn Beckā€™s brief anti-Trump face turn when he gave a bunch of interviews to CNN and acted all teary-eyed about the right wing mediaā€™s role in all of it? Then he realized he couldnā€™t make the big bucks that way and made the heel turn back to his old ways.

Great job giving him airtime, though, CNN. Smart move elevating him as an intelligent voice of reason. Really great judgment, you jackasses.

Sadly, Samantha Bee deserves some of this ire as well. She had Glen Beck on her show in late 2016 so they could ā€œfind common groundā€.

Iā€™m pretty beyond being mad at it, I consider it a service actually in that Beck shows how shameless the grift is (also see Mark Levin who flirted with being all in on Cruz for 2 weeks), and how little market share there is atm for whatever it is the fuck Beck was pretending to be before the age of stable genius.

ā€œwhistle-dickedā€ is one of the great neologisms of my day and I am here for it.

My favorite podcast, On The Media had a thing where they did a Glenn Beck interview during his great apology tour and then some time later they did a retrospective episode and concluded that they made a mistake and got played. I donā€™t like that they begrudgingly gave him airtime, but I really respect that fact that Bob and Brooke can admit they fucked up. To their credit, their Beck interview was loaded with suspicion and credulity, but they really should never have put him on the air.

My memory is probably off but I kinda remember Beck being a Clinton supporter back in the early 90ā€™s. Apparently his ratings were low, so he turned heel and never looked back. Itā€™s always about money and grifting off rubes with these guys.
