D.C. has spoken. It is fine to burn down businesses and threaten homeowners in the name of "racial justice," but you must never, ever question the results of a political election that takes most of a week to sort out before declaring a winner.
Black Lives Matter and Antifa are reportedly sitting on billions of dollars in donations after causing billions of dollars in property damage in this last year. Americans who took part in "Stop the Steal" rallies at the Capitol will not find fat bank accounts awaiting them once D.C.'s wrath goes scorched earth on Trump-supporters.

Congress has learned that they can retake America with little or no price to pay, that they can cover up anything the Bidens do in future, or the Bernies or the AIOC's, or make it look just dandy..........when we lost Georgia we LOST! We are pretty near powerless, and the few who still fight for us are the few......and the Republicans who either looked the other way or participated (Mike Lee, Ben Sasse, etc.) are still in office. The best thing we could do is primary them and dump them. Romney is too obvious.........look at all the others.

This was a tip of the iceberg. People are disgusted with the political class. These pearl clutching pols better not come to the people asking for their votes.

This is one of the more bizarre political phenomenons I’ve seen in my lifetime. The GOP is now teamed up with the opposing party against their own constituents. Those seats their rear ends are warming were not won with Democrat votes. These backstabbing traitors will have a hard time coming back from this. They still don’t get Trump supporters. Many people didn’t care for his personality, including me. It was America First. It was solid conservative values. It was Drain the Swamp. The very things that frighten Washington the most.

The GOPe had better suck up to the leftist billionaires in Silicon Valley because their actions against Trump have assured that they've lost the donations of millions of Americans. My checkbook officially slammed shut in December when it became obvious that the GOPe wasn't going to fight for Trump. I unsubscribed from every begging email I got from any of the worthless Republicans in Congress (and there were plenty of them). Wednesday was the icing on the cake. It will be a cold day in the nether region before I spend another dollar on the Republican Party.

Congress is NOT on our side. Maybe a few members, but they're powerless.

The left, Pelosi and Schumer, care not that the country is divided. They want total power and control and will do what
it takes to achieve their goal. It does not matter if it brings havoc, disruption, civil unrest and ruin. They will not accept the blame They have no interest in working for the benefit of the people they are supposed to represent. I don't care for establishment Republicans, but care less for democrats. Democrats are evil.

As the RINO Swamp slugs have been making their public comments condemning Pres Trump and his millions of followers, I have been writing each of the slimeballs a note, even though I’m not in their state (they allow it, unlike congresscreeps) letting them know that we don’t care what they think, and their days are numbered until we replace them in office, but they can be sure they will have no respite just like they were silent when the
Resident, his staff or followers have had none.
The GOP is dead. They think they can recover from this, but they killed their own party this week.

The Boston Massacre occurred in spring of 1770. The first serious shooting battle of the revolution didn't occur for five more years when, after Paul Revere's warning ride ("on the 18th of April, in '75" in Longfellow's peom), Americans engaged the British as the marched to Lexington and Concord to confiscate arms and gunpowder to disarm the colonists. By June,1775, the Battle of Bunker Hill was fought, and by early in July of 1776, the Declaration of Independence was released.
Things simmered a long time before it got serious.
I really think the country is terribly split, and I don't see how we put things back together. I have essentially nothing in common with a far left Seattle/SanFran/Boston/NYC "liberal" who wants reparations, defunding the police, disarming all civilians, more federal government direct control of everything, no Christian symbols or beliefs allowed, more 'hate America first' taught in the schools, and electric golf carts which check in with the Kommisar of Transportation every few minutes to make sure you are on an approved trip. What they want is worse than the Soviet Union, and there is nothing that they want that I support.
I don't see how their vision of a no-freedom Communist society has anything to offer me except to hate me and all I believe in, and try to destroy my life, my religion, the economy, my beliefs and all that I have held dear.
How can those two groups ever be part of the same country?
Kurt Schlichter's "Indian Country" dystopic novel seems to be moving from fiction towards more chance of reality every single day.

The Mueller report was a warning...dems can & will anything without consequences....Trump, his family &associates were investigated, impeached, spent millions in legal fees & spied on... the republican party allowed it to happen. Without Trump the republican party is gone & that is what the DC fake republicans want.... they will be minority leaders for life. The word republican leaves a bad taste in my mouth. I am changing to independent. ^ republican ^ senators voted with Trump what an embarrassment.

Wasn't that the plan when Obola was thrust on US ? We are a social experiment. Not hard with indoctrinated schools.

There are officially two Americas now. That was shown to us clearly by the feckless GOP politicians who have spent the last few days in full CYA mode, running full tilt for the leftist media cameras to explain how they were one of the sole voices of reason that day. After all, gotta keep those cocktail party invites coming, regardless of political party!!
