GQP Proves “We Can Do Whatever We Want And No One Can Stop Us.”

The Icarian Posted on March 8, 2024 by adminMarch 8, 2024

The GQP sent several powerful messages this week proclaiming “we can do whatever we want and no one can stop us.”

On Tuesday in California, disgraced former baseball player, deadbeat dad and political nonentity Steve Garvey won a senate seat for GQP without a campaign and without a single campaign ad.

Adam Schiff -- Put his career over public good

Adam Schiff — Put his career over public good at time when Dems could ill afford it, screwing the party’s ability to control the Senate and House.

Adam Schiff’s cynical political play to pit Barbara Lee and Katie Porter against each other played directly into the GQP’s hands and helped Garvey mightily. Anti-Garvey campaign ad “he’s just too conservative” ads turned out to conservative catnip and actually helped energize the nearly moribund state GQP and brought them back to life.

Schiff’s selfish and cynical strategy essentially gave control of the senate at a critical moment to the GQP, made it more difficult, if not impossible, to retake the house and screwed the state Democratic party up and down the ballot by reenergizing the GQP.

Thanks Adam.

George Santos. Yes, he’s back and more popular than ever among CONservos. Proven criminal George Santos was prominently displayed at the STOU. He’ll run again.

The GQP loves its criminals and its criminality. Lies and cheating are the way the GQP rolls since it’s the only way they can actually win.

‘Bama Sen. Katie Britt responded to the STOU from a kitchen, symbolic of where the GQP think women belong. We couldn’t see her feet, so we don’t know if she was also barefoot.

And the tRUmp’s takeover of the GQP party and, most importantly for him, all of its cash, was completed with the installation of his henchmen in all major areas of control. The alleged political party is now a wholly owned subsidiary of tRUmp/Putin Inc. Meanwhile, tRUmp had a peptalk and cuddling session with leading fascist mastermind Viktor Orban, who is helping the former guy and his followers turn the USA into Hungary II. The GQP’s political plans are a near exact carbon copy of Orban’s successful democracy crushing strategy.

This is America. https://youtu.be/VYOjWnS4cMY?si=PyEkKMeSbZdokQCh

Don’t Be A Sucker – yet we have so many and another is born every nanosecond.

Thanks to Wired for reporting what has been known by privacy advocates both in and out of Congress for weeks. Democrat Jim Himes is quietly whipping votes to help Donald Trump and Kash Patel spy on Americans using ChatGPT. Absolutely shameful.

Humans were given a planet overflowing with trees, fruit, water, medicine, and sunshine and then invented debt, capitalism, and war.And we wonder why space aliens keep a low profile.

‘Someone knows something’ but it sure ain’t Crash Patel’s FBI or the cops in Arizona.
There’s all kind of surveillance of Americans going on but they can’t find a guy who abducted, and most certainly murdered, a grandma.
So you have a high profile victim having beg for clues that law enforcement should have already tracked down.
In an age of law enforcement impenitence, this is shining example.

Some Americans are worried about what used to be the constitution.
The FBI is buying the location data of Americans. Not with warrants. Not with probable cause. With money.
But that should be no surprise.
If you’re on Facebook, you give away your life and rights every day. For free. To Anything For A Buck Zuck. Who sells it for a buck. To a man named Kash.
Hope that explains it.

Ooooookay MAGA nutjob.
If you could teleport, why to a Waffle House and not, say, Hawaii?
Maybe that’s why he found his hallucination no fun. Just another MAGA Regime operative. He sure didn’t teleport any aid to anyone.

A French journalist Marine Vlahovic was found dead in her home in Marseille while working on a documentary covering Israel's genocidal war against the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.
Not saying Mossad was involved, but she committed suicide by shooting herself in the back of her head.

Checkmate. Putin wins.
The best part is this is a sanctioned tanker loaded with oil that WAS sanctioned until The Fascist lifted the sanctions. It didn't even take 24 hours for Putie to load up a tanker that will break our Cuba blockade.
