The next move by the GOP is 100% obvious.

The inability of the GOP to elect a speaker of the house, will be clearly framed as Joe biden's fault!

How, we have no clue, but understand that 100% of the base will believe it

@DrJackBrown

It's very clear to everyone in the GOP, maybe not to all of us, that the inability of Kevin McCarthy to be elected speaker is Joe biden's fault.

How all of us have no clue. But I'm sure in their minds, it's Joe biden's fault. And hunters

@kylegriffin1

All of us have to remember, this is not the show, that begins after the GOP sorts out the speaker process.

The real s*** show begins the day after...

@StevenBeschloss

As you say, the GOP promised chaos.

However, they are elected and taken oath to govern.

And somehow, their decision to deliver chaos is based on false information and conspiracy theories.

Hard to see a good outcome out of any of this, especially in a country in the world that is in need of clear-headed guidance right now....

Here's some New Years perspective to start your 2023.

Barbara Walters, Anne Frank, & Martin Luther King, Jr. were all born in 1929. Yet while we were just with Ms. Walters days ago, those two icons are portrayed as ancient history.

But the ideals they fought for weren't in some distant past—they're a contemporary reality we must continue to fight for today. We control that narrative. Let’s keep fighting for that justice in 2023 & beyond.

Remember, "The past is never dead. It's not even past.”

This is sort of crazy when you think about it.

For short City commutes, somehow don't think that a Ford 150 lightning, while an amazing vehicle, is the right tool for the job.

Encouraging the electric bike industry seems like a no-brainer, as long as it polices itself, and doesn't continue making batteries that exploding catch fire.

@pbump

There seems to be a GOP news calendar. We're just getting over the war on Christmas days.

Now, they will ignore the deep frost on the east coast, and the first warm spell in January February, they will cast doubt on climate change.

Then in March and April, as spring comes along, it will be time for a new round of caravans, many somehow with matching tents.

And then there will be daily fixtures of Hunter hunter, hunter hunter by the hour.

@kims

This is an excellent question, and one that I increasingly wonder about...

George Santos⁩ keeps giving contradictory explanations for his mystery millions, which he used to finance his House campaign. Read my newest article for his latest story, which doesn’t add up. And please share this one.

George Santos keeps giving inconsistent stories about his mystery millions

The public needs to see his receipts.

He talked about electric cars. I don't know anything about cars, so when people said he was a genius I figured he must be a genius.

Then he talked about rockets. I don't know anything about rockets, so when people said he was a genius I figured he must be a genius.

Now he talks about software. I happen to know a lot about software & Elon Musk is saying the stupidest shit I've ever heard anyone say, so when people say he's a genius I figure I should stay the hell away from his cars and rockets.
