1. great argument for a massive Democratic midterm turnout

BTW Newtums... your 15 min were up in the 90s and WTF why aren't you dead?

[Kingofalldems]

29. Absolutely!

[MyOwnPeace]

2. Starting to sound like

NEWT fell and hit his head while reaching down to apply his mandatory 'kiss' on TFG!

[onethatcares]

3. slug crawls from under rock

and says, blaghauils

these f...ing zombies never go away.

[trusty elf]

21. Newt of the living dead

[oldtime dfl_er]

4. what was his level of involvement?

Certain there was some.

[Pachamama]

24. My thoughts exactly

[Kingofalldems]

30. Wouldn't be surprised.

[Walleye]

5. Yeah right after they round up Hillary and Obama and Eric Holder.

Threatening to arrest people who are innocent of crime, and investigating and allowing the biggest crimes to go unpunished. That’s what we’re dealing with in the Republican Party. He is acting like Ken Starr never happened. My sister-in-law’s sister was helping write Hillary’s book and she was subpoenaed and had to hire a lawyer. She’s as law-abiding as they come

[MyOwnPeace]

8. So...........

you should 'go to jail' for doing your sworn duty, but it's OK to 'cheat on your wife' while she's on her death bed with cancer?

Got it! You ARE a peach, NEWT!

[2naSalit]

9. Well...

This is sNewt-spew afterall. He was this way as a child. I saw a documentary about his background where his mother was interviewed at length. Even she was horrified at what a pos/asshole he was from an early age, she went up to but did not actually say he was evil. His own mother.

[Crunchy Frog]

34. She survived. He just divorced her and left her and the kids in poverty.

I believe he handled her the papers as she was coming out of anesthesia after cancer surgery.

[MyOwnPeace]

39. OK, thank you for clearing a fuzzy memory!

Seriously, I'm glad she survived - and it has to be 'interesting' to be Newt knowing that she's still around and the thought of how he treated her should just rot out his stomach........

Oh, wait! We're talking about NEWT!!!!!

Look up "POND SCUM" on-line and you should see a picture of him.

[SheltieLover]

6. Someone have dirty hands?

[2naSalit]

11. Encrusted...

With blood from decades past.

[SheltieLover]

12. Yup

[greatauntoftriplets]

7. On what charges?

Maybe in a star chamber proceeding because investigating January 6 is not a crime.

[Kingofalldems]

14. Being mean to republicans.

He basically said that in the video.

[greatauntoftriplets]

15. That's not a crime, at least now.

Nor should it ever be. The GQP is bonkers.

[dweller]

10. They'll be swept up in the throng

of the 300 million the pillow guy is arresting


✌🏻

[moondust]

13. Anyone wondering

how the GOP of Lincoln became the racist, corrupt, self-serving, batshit crazy, do-nothing, obstructionist, power-grabbing, lawless, coup-plotting GQP of TFG needs to take a good hard look at this clown.

[FakeNoose]

25. Wow, you've summed it up quite nicely

[alittlelark]

16. I thought he was dead.

[struggle4progress]

32. He only moribund

[TlalocW]

17. So assume that he's right in that republicans will go after J6 committee members

I bet that the J6'ers will have their shit together. They'll bring receipts, official transcripts, notes, etc. It will just turn into a fishing expedition where they all put on that bored face Hillary did when she testified for 11 hours straight because republicans don't know how to govern, and more than any previous bunch of republicans, they don't want to know how to govern because government is the enemy, and they're just going to waste time and make themselves look stupid. And if republicans do take over congress, that will be the best case scenario - they're wasting time and accomplishing nothing.

22. Won't matter. It's not about truth, it's about revenge.

We keep making the mistake in belief that there would be a democracy, with its protections of due process, if Republicans take over.

[Qutzupalotl]

26. The Constitution generally prohibits prosecuting members of Congress

except in cases of treason, felony, or breach of peace. The speech and debate clause protects them when doing their jobs, which is all the committee is doing. Newt is full of it again.

[Nevilledog]

28. You really think they'll follow the Constitution?

They're done with even pretending to follow the Constitution.

[Duncan Grant]

18. The POTUS has joined a lynch mob. WTF kind of rhetoric is this?

The last thing I need is to work up a head of steam over the great pile of sh*t that is Newt Gingrich but — what kind of imbecile falls for this insanity? Lynch mob?! The most corrupt mfers in American history are manipulating fools into believing they’re victims at the hands of a democratic lynch mob? Out-freakin-rageous. It’s a nation of idiots.

[Bobstandard]

19. Believe him

If the Republicans take control we’ll see level of totalitarianism most can’t imagine at this point. If I was Rachel or Joy or Ari and many, many others, I d keep a go bag packed.

Not possible here, you say? Would you have said an attack on the Capital was in the cards two years ago?

A former Speaker of the House is threatening jail time for members of Congress who are investigating the violent January 6 attack on our Capitol and our Constitution.

This is what it looks like when the rule of law unravels.

40. GREAT post!!!

DAMN, she's good! It would be GREAT to have her on our side - but at least she's on the side of the LAW!

[kskiska]

23. He's just pissed because he and helmet-head lost their cushy digs

in Rome, under TFG.

[PJMcK]

27. Old adulterer says what? (n/t)

[book_worm]

31. Who really cares what Newt G thinks anyway? Even Trump

didn't give him a job in his administration. He's a has been and a nobody.

[Crunchy Frog]

33. They must be getting nervous if they're resorting to those kinds of threats.

Must be some really juicy dirt that's going to come out.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

35. Newt is nuts

[onenote]

36. Newt's dementia

You would think he would know that Congress doesn't arrest, try and convict people. So even if the repubs control Congress after 2022, there isn't any way that they can cause members of the Committee to be sent to jail.

[Baked Potato]

37. Yep, that's what they stand for. Nt

[Mr. Ected]

38. Newt goosesteps out with his new Contract on America

Always a giddy fascist that Gingrich.

[intheflow]

41. Is anyone surprised by this?

J6 was a failed coup. Of course our leaders will be rounded up and "tried" on literally Trumped up charges if the Republicans regain power. They already tried to overthrow the government, and you know the old saying, if at first you don't succeed...

[SunImp]

42. Fascist scumbag
