So this political party walks into a country. In the past two weeks, they grilled a qualified Supreme Court justice candidate and accused her of being soft on child predators.

A Virginia GOP official was forced to resign after calling for the lynching of the Secretary of Defense. (Clue:. The secretary of defense isn’t Jewish)

A pioneering Black judge was to get a courthouse named from him, but it was discovered he once issued a ruling against prayer in schools, so the House GOP sunk it. Asked why he voted against a bill that he co-sponsored, Rep. Vern Buchanan said, “I don’t know.”

The Colorado GOP is standing foursquare behind their secretary of state, even though she’s indicted on a 10 count Federal charge for hatching a scheme to bypass election security protocols in a county office.

Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey claimed the 2020 election was stolen by “big tech, fake news and blue state liberals.”

A lawyer on her staff was arrested the same week on child solicitation charges.
Rep. Elise Stefanik, also made the same claim about the stolen election and outright refuses to acknowledge Joe Biden as the legitimately elected president of the United States. In private, she acknowledges Trump was a disaster for the party but sees “no upside” in criticizing him publicly.

Tennessee Rep. David Byrd admitted to molesting three children. His Party refused to expel him, and expressed support.

Also in Tennessee, a bill seeks to eliminate age restrictions on marriage altogether. Another bill concurrently introduced seeks to ban gay marriage.

It was discovered a former Trump aide seeking a House seat in New Hampshire voted in two states in 2016.

Former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows was struck off from North Carolina voting rolls after it turned out he wasn’t really living there. His wife provided two different addresses on voter registration forms, which is a felony.

For some reason, Meadows still hasn’t been charged with contempt of Congress for refusing to cooperate with them.

Six GOP House members voted against a bill that would require the state department to report and preserve evidence of war crimes committed by Russian forces in Ukraine.

The wife of a sitting Supreme Court Justice was discovered to have played a leading role egging on Trump Administration officials to nullify a Presidential election. The justice himself was the lone dissenter in a decision to compel the former President to release documents from the January 6th committee, and refuses to recuse himself from future cases regarding the matter.

Former Trump attorney John Eastman, already embroiled with the wife of the Supreme Court justice, was in Wisconsin this week, still trying to get the state to reverse its electoral decision that gave Joe Biden the state. He wrote the blueprint for overturning the election itself.
