Between the Republicans themselves and their extreme Right Wing and then the QAnon people, I can barely keep up. And with Trump out of the White House, I thought the bizarre stories of him were behind us but no, there's still more. Did you see this?
Russia has been cultivating Trump as an asset for 40 years, former KGB spy says
Just a bit from the article:
- The KGB cultivated Trump as an asset for 40 years, a former operative told The Guardian.
- Yuri Shvets told The Guardian that the KGB had identified Trump as a potential asset in the 1980s.
- Shvets said it was stunning when Trump took out an ad repeating anti-Western talking points after a trip to Moscow.
It would normally be extremely upsetting, too, to the fellow members of his political party but they just COMPLETELY DENY IT. Just deny it all. That way you can tell yourself it never happened. And then accuse Democratic Socialists like AOC and Bernie Sanders and the like of being Communists.
I tell you, I can't believe where we are.
Republicans and Right Wingers actually attacked our own nation's Capitol and no one is really being held accountable for it. Some of the actual trespassers have been charged but that's it. Nothing else.
With that attack on the Capitol, so many of us were sure even the Republicans would hold Trump accountable, for the nation's sake but no. Certainly not. This took place yesterday, for God's sake.
House GOP leader Kevin McCarthy visited Trump in Florida to seek his favor, showing how the party is still beholden to him
Additional proof:
Forget about a GOP crack-up: Republicans rally around a defeated Trump because they understand power
Meanwhile, there is this:
‘The Enemy Is Within’: Pelosi Says Lawmakers Have ‘Threatened Violence’ Against Other Members
As further proof, there's this guy.
GOP Rep. Andy Harris Tries To Bring Gun Into House Chamber
GOP congressman tries to bring a GUN onto the floor of the House but is turned away by police after he set off metal detectors put in place following MAGA riot
Then, one Republican taking a gun into Congress and the Capitol, no, certainly not.
Another GOP Lawmaker Attempted To Bring A Gun Into House
Then, from Texas we have this pretty incredible development.
Kyle Biedermann, Texas State Rep Who Marched to Capitol, Introduces Bill to Secede From Union
Here's a guy who was part of the attack on our nation's Capitol and now he goes back home and proposes his state leaves our union, leaves the United States.
How are both of those not treason, separately?
How is this guy getting any support from his political party on the local, state or national level? How is that possible?
Into what ultra-bizarro world has Donald J Trump and his political party dumped us all?
How do we get it all to stop?
