Failed Georgia gubernatorial candidate Kandiss Taylor, the flat earth nutjob and now a GOP chair in the state threatened "Extreme accountability" to anyone who tries to stop a Christian nationalist take-over of the USA.
Psycho Stew Peters ranted that he wants the church to run the states and Jesus to be in charge
"We are the church and we run the state even if they don't believe it," Taylor said.
Marjorie Taylor Greene's attempt to oust Mike Johnson as Speaker is so laughable that even Fox News has had enough.
"It’s high time someone in the Republican Party told Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene to turn all that bombastic self-serving showmanship and drama queen energy on Democrats, and stop trying to defeat her own party," Peek said in her lengthy piece.
Greene joined Trump's co-conspirator in trying to overthrow the 2020 election, Steve Bannon to b*tch and moan.
And you're right, Fox News called me an idiot.
Sen. Tim Scott, who is reported to be on Trump's short list for VP, continues to beclown himself in the service of Dear Leader.

After it emerged recently that Gov. Kristi Noem recounts a graphic, disturbing story in her forthcoming book about killing her puppy with a gun, the Republican from South Dakota defended the violence as a “tough decision” she had to make. The dog, she wrote, had attacked some chickens.
“I talk about it because what I’m tired of in this country is politicians who pretend to be something that they’re not,” Noem said on CBS’s Face the Nation today.
That tough talk aside, Noem apparently is not immune to such posing: It has now also emerged that she falsely claimed in her book to have met North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un.

WILMINGTON, N. C. (AP) — This North Carolina voter is nervous.
Will Rikard, a 49-year-old father of two, was among several hundred Democrats who stood and cheered for Joe Biden as the first-term president delivered a fiery speech recently about the billions of dollars he has delivered to protect the state’s drinking water.
But afterward, the Wilmington resident acknowledged he is worried about Biden’s political standing in the looming rematch with former Republican President Donald Trump.
“There’s not enough energy,” Rikard said of Biden’s coalition.
According to a whistleblower, Pentagon personnel were complicit in ensuring that the January 6 protests were out of control. This is court-martial stuff.
