Quote
Greene called the 2018 midterms, in which one Muslim American retained his seat and two others were elected for the first time “an Islamic invasion of our government.”

Eric Hananoki wrote at Media Matters of Greene accosting Omar,

“In February 2019, she visited Capitol Hill — her likely future place of employment — and filmed herself unsuccessfully trying to interrogate Reps. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) and Rashida Tlaib (D-MI). During the video, she falsely claimed that they’re illegitimate members of Congress because they took their congressional oaths of office on the Quran and said she wanted to make them retake their oath on the Bible. She also said she wanted to tell them they “really should go back to the Middle East if they support Sharia.” In addition to being bigoted, her remarks are also ignorant as their oaths were legitimate and neither representative is from the Middle East.”

You don’t have to swear on the Bible to hold public office in the United States of America. You can swear on anything you hold dear. Sen.Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ) is a non-theist and she swore on the constitution. Tulsi Gabbard swore on the Bhagavad-Gita, a Hindu scripture.

Though to reference conehead OJ, Detroit is basically in the middle east ...

I might swear in using a colander ...

I think the posterboard that Steny Hoyer was carrying around the chamber,  which was a print from Greene's FB campaign page,  made the unfitness of Greene vividly clear.

On another track,

Alexei Navalny will be remembered in history with the likes of King and Mandela.

Man has balls of brass.    And eloquence.   So,  yes.

Who knew that failure to report to your probation officer,  due to deadly poisoning and lying in a coma,  was a violation of your probation?   They should put that in the brochure:  If we poison you with neurotoxin and you fail to report in due to coma,  you still need to make arrangements to report in every week...

That might explain why he survived, since Putin's agents reportedly put the poison along the seams of his underwear.

If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you.

In that case go fuck your mother.



Pretty sure this is the language that Josh was asking for opinions about on the other forum.

Are any of you REALLY in favor of this?

In his first two weeks in office, President Biden has signed nearly as many executive orders as Franklin Roosevelt signed in his entire first month. And President Roosevelt holds the record.

And he hasn't played Golf once!  Does he even know how to President?

Not to worry. Josh will be sure to punish you or me for Larry's sins. It's in his Boston liberal DNA.

Good interview on CNN - Wolf Blitzer with Republican Congressman Carlos Gimenez - on everything from Trump impeachment to MTG to Liz Cheney.

About the 5:15 mark of the 5-6 PM slot if you are interested
