Another GOP traitor on the job

Congresswoman, Elise Stefanik, (NY-21), continues to support Donald Trump, despite the fact — repeat, despite the fact — that her president lost the 2020 election, instigated an insurrection in January, 2020 , and continues his attempts to overthrow — or otherwise destroy the legitimately elected government of the United States. — wfw

‘You’re a mess’: Elise Stefanik slammed for parroting Donald Trump’s debunked ‘illegal leak’ screed

United States Congresswoman Elise Stefanik (R-New York), the chair of the GOP Conference in the House of Representatives, suggested on Saturday that former President Donald Trump is a victim of political persecution by “corrupt Leftist prosecutors” who are expected to indict Trump as soon as this upcoming week.

That includes Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, Fulton County, Georgia District Attorney Fani Willis, and Justice Department Special Counsel Jack Smith – all of whom are investigating Trump for an array of alleged crimes.

‘Had to borrow $10 million’: MyPillow CEO complains company in debt due to pushing Trump 2020 election lies

by Myra Boddie, Alternate

Right-wing extremist and MyPillow CEO, Mike Lindell, said during an interview with former President Donald Trump strategist, Steve Bannon, his successful company is in debt thanks to “voting machine companies.”

Bannon and Lindell have both “repeatedly pushed Trump’s baseless claims that the 2020 election was ‘stolen’ through an unprecedented, nationwide voter fraud conspiracy” — one Fox News has admitted was false.

Former federal prosecutor and Republican Ron Filipkowski shared a clip from the interview via Twitter, writing, “Mike Lindell reveals that MyPillow is going broke because of his battle to prove Trump won, and he had to borrow $10 million to keep things going.”

Bannon asked the multi-millionaire, “The loan you took out at MyPillow — people were all over you about this?”

Lindell replied, “Yeah, last year, actually there were three separate loans, as the machine companies continue to sue us for billions of dollars.”

The CEO continued, “we had to borrow almost $10 million dollars. We’re an employee-owned company.

It just baffles me, Steve, you’ve got all these machine companies — these voting machine companies, that nobody even knew their name before, but everybody protects them. And yet you attack a USA company, MyPillow, and my employees, and it’s just disgusting.”

Republicans launch opening salvo against food aid By MEREDITH LEE HILL and GARRETT DOWNS

By MEREDITH LEE HILL and GARRETT DOWNS

House Republicans are taking their first shot at slashing federal spending on nutrition programs for low-income Americans. It won’t be their last.

Rep. Dusty Johnson (R-S.D.), is introducing a bill Tuesday, shared exclusively with POLITICO, to expand current restrictions on who qualifies for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, formerly known as food stamps. It’s the first of what is expected to be a wave of GOP efforts this year to set limits on SNAP, the country’s largest food assistance program, which grew significantly during the pandemic. But while Republicans have telegraphed their desire to curb nutrition spending, House Democrats have yet to mount a coordinated response, raising concerns in the caucus about whether they can fend off likely GOP attacks on the program during the negotiations over the debt limit, budget and 2023 farm bill.

Johnson’s bill would expand the age bracket for able-bodied SNAP recipients without dependents, who have to meet complicated work requirements. The legislation would also limit the federal government’s ability to waive those work requirements for states he says are abusing loopholes in the system.

Trump’s Dead-Enders: here’s how they roll

When you come across comments, statements, or declarations by Trump’s dead-enders, you know there’s a pile of bullshit on display . They rail against Joe Biden, they whine, carp and complain about Hunter Biden, they babble about a myriad of fanciful transgressions committed by Democrats which is predictable, but — what really defines them — is what they don’t complain about.

Donald Trump falsely claimed that the 2020 election was rigged against him and there wasn’t a hint of outrage from his supporters. Donald Trump actively engaged in a treasonous effort to negate the votes of the 81.5 million people who voted for Joe Biden — or against the Donald — and there wasn’t a mouse-squeak of protest from his followers.

I think it’s fair to conclude that the many of folks who ignored Trump’s lies, and quietly sloughed off his effort to overthrow the legitimately elected government of the United States, supported his goal of becoming president for life. And now they think they can distance themselves from his treasonous behavior by ignoring it.

On September 24, 2020, Forbes magazine published the article, “Here’s Everything Trump Has Said About Refusing To Give Up Power.” you can look it up online, check out the URL: https://tinyurl.com/55st8apf or — if you’re a Trump dead-ender — dismiss it as “fake news”.

The bottom line is: engaging these folks is an exercise in futility. They’re woefully ignorant — by choice,– preferring instead, to wallow in the outright lies provided by FOX News. Eventually, they’ll realize that they were duped — and they’ll deal with that fact by rationalizing their failure and setting themselves up for the next bullsjit artist that tells them what they want to hear. It’s how they roll.— wfw

Trump’s ‘evident emotional issues’ aren’t scaring off his fans – and that’s dangerous — by Tom Bogging

The hero’s welcome that greeted Donald Trump at this past weekend’s CPAC gathering in Maryland — despite the fact that he tried to subvert the 2020 presidential election while inciting a riot at the Capitol — should be a cause for concern over what it will take for his fans to abandon him?

Elise Stefanik, Lier, Trump Toady, and Traitor

Stefanik speaks at CPAC, makes false claims about the FBI (BY EMILY RUSSELL (ADIRONDACK REPORTER)

North Country Rep.Elise Stefanik spoke last weekend at CPAC , the annual conference for conservative lawmakers and activists. Stefanik attacked the Biden administration and celebrated the work of her Republican colleagues.

“I am so excited to be here with you as the conference chair of the new House Republican majority,” said Stefanik, smiling as she took the stage on Saturday.

Stefanik was notably the only member of the Republican congressional leadership at this year’s CPAC. Missing from the event were House majority leader Kevin McCarthy, Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell, and former vice President Mike Pence.

This year’s CPAC was more a celebration of Trumpism than it was a broad spectrum of Republican speakers and ideals.

Stefanik spent her speech attacking President Biden and the Senate Democrats. “They want a blank check to continue to spend our hard-earned taxpayer dollars on wasteful, woke programs,” said Stefanik.

She blamed inflation and crime rates on Democrats. She also made three false claims about the FBI and the Department of Justice.

“America is seeing Joe Biden’s corrupt DOJ and FBI fully weaponized as they label parents domestic terrorists,” said Stefanik.

The Justice Department said it’s never used that term to describe parents. The term ‘domestic terrorists’ was instead used in a letter written by the nonprofit National School Board Association to the DOJ.

Stefanik continued her speech with another false claim about the DOJ and FBI, saying that “they conducted an unprecedented and illegal raid on President Trump’s home”

The raid was legally authorized by a federal judge. Stefanik provided no evidence to support her claim. The FBI also searched President Biden’s home and personal property.

Stefanik also falsely claimed that the FBI “illegally paid Twitter $3 million to suppress stories, such as the Hunter Biden laptop story all for the political benefit and purpose of electing Democrats.”

The FBI did pay Twitter $3.4 million, but according to USA Today, it was for records requests, not to suppress stories on the social media site.

Separately, the FBI has flagged Twitter accounts it says violate the company’s terms of service. According to Rolling Stone Magazine, Stefanik’s staff has done the same, making regular requests over both the Trump and Biden presidencies that Twitter moderate its content.

Progressives Urge Senate Dems to Ditch Tradition That’s Allowing GOP to Veto Biden Judges

“Senate Democrats should eliminate every barrier possible” to confirm President Joe Biden’s judicial nominees, said Indivisible

With Democrats hoping to confirm dozens more federal judges following President Joe Biden’s milestone of appointing 100 new members of the judiciary, progressives on Friday said the party has no choice but to eliminate a tradition they say has been exploited by Republicans to block the president’s nominees.

Advocacy group Alliance for Justice said Democratic leaders, particularly Senate Judiciary Committee Chair Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) must make a choice: They can “transform our federal courts by confirming so many more judges with a respect for the rights of all of us,” or they can allow Republicans to continue the tradition of using so-called “blue slips” to reject nominees.

The Senate “can’t do both,” said the group.\
