Republicans rape women in dressing rooms: crickets. Democrats pose in a gag photo: outrage. And the evil thing about this is that the Democrats let stand all and any Republican crimes (in the interest of collegiality?) and hammer the heads of their own over lying allegations made against them.

Hawley, Cruz, Boebert, Brooks, and dozens upon dozens of others gave aid and succor to the bastards who fecally trashed our Capitol Building and murdered a police officer. Got that: they gave sideline rah-rah to traitors, to insurrectionists out to murder Democratic Members -- and a handful of Republicans, as well.

The Dems are understandably outraged as the attack on the Capitol Building. But WTF are they doing about the traitors in their midst?

The GOP is the Party of Insurrection and Treason. The Democratic Party is the Party of Caution and Gentility. We’re about to see what caution and gentility get you in a war for freedom, liberty, and the rule of law.
