Attorney General Merrick Garland held in contempt of US Congress. It is quite amusing to see the same Republican party members who openly flaunted subpoenas now taking a stand against Attorney General Garland for not providing them with audio recordings that they can potentially twist to fit their narrative. The irony and hypocrisy within the GOP seem to have no boundaries.
I, like many Americans, hold Congress in contempt. Their incessant theater of outrage and lack of actual productivity is truly disheartening. In this current political climate, it seems that holding contempt for Congress has almost become a badge of honor.… Continue reading
It’s no secret that chaos seems to follow certain members of Congress wherever they go. In this case, the recent outburst by Marjorie Taylor Greene during a hearing has once again brought attention to the darker intentions at play within the GOP. As Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez pointed out, the disruption caused by Greene was not just a random act of defiance but a calculated move to divert attention away from the real issues at hand.

The reality is that Russia has never truly let go of the Cold War mentality. They have been subtly and not-so-subtly trying to regain geopolitical power by invading other countries and manipulating global politics.… Continue reading
Lauren Boebert, the controversial Republican Congresswoman, recently found herself at the receiving end of some humorous mockery during a Congressional dinner. Republican Representative Lisa McClain from Michigan playfully warned Boebert to keep her hands above the table and to refrain from vaping. While some may see this as a brutal mocking, I can’t help but find it more amusing than anything else.
Firstly, let’s address the elephant in the room. Boebert’s political career seems to be on shaky ground, with her chances of winning re-election in the upcoming primaries looking slim. It appears that even fellow Republicans are not confident in her chances, which is reflected in their willingness to openly mock her.… Continue reading
