I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

The Wyoming Republican Committee voted symbolically to expel her from the part.

In past eras such rebellion as this would be severely punished, stripping of all committee assignments, a guarantee that the GOP campaign arm would support primary challengers in the next election etc. But such a narrow GOP majority makes "revenge" fairly impossible for McCarthy, although I have little doubt he would love to hit back at these people after the last week.

Why the fuck? It has been over two years and I have no idea what fantasy world that dude lives in.

China? Pelosi? Some random General? This is such brand new conspiracy stuff. Do the Republicans even agree what conspiracy they are supposed to be exposing in this investigation?

Ah well at least the rules package was passed and it isn't too radically different from shit we have seen in the past.

Looking forward to the endless Hunter Biden and Nancy Pelosi investigations. Or China. Or random generals.

Hopefully voters remember that even a vote for "moderate" Republicans for House or Senate seats enables and empowers the lunatics.

George Santos stole 3,000 dollars from a dying dog.  That's pretty low, even for a Republican.

Don't worry, it just came out that he was a drag performer when he was young in Brazil, so they'll probably kick him out over that. It's not what they should kick him out for, but he'll be out.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.
