#Trey Gowdy

Do you get the impression that the narrow GOP majority in the House won’t last very long? 🤔🤨

Hunter Biden’s laptop is the new Hillary Clinton email server. Their hearings will be as ridiculous as the 2015 GOP Benghazi hearings.

The 1,657 TV shows that spent less time on the air than the Hillary Clinton Benghazi hearing  (archived)

Despite their length, the only thing I can remember about the Benghazi hearings is the weird hair of GOP committee chair Trey Gowdy.

Trump Falsely Claimes He's 'Being Forced' Off Campaign Trail

Every time Trump opens his mouth he does nothing but lie. He's still grifting his followers for $

Trump is bilking them for all he can get.

We've seen this before. Remember when Trey Gowdy tried to fabricate emails against Hillary that he claimed were classified, and the DOJ or FBI stepped up and said "no, they’re not. The originals did not have any markings or redactions on them at all. You added those markings to make them look official." Again, if the Republicans can’t cheat, they can’t win. They're finally being called out on their cheating on a regular basis and they’re being made to look like the fools that they are.

I agree with Matt, Trey sounded good, but in the final analysis Trey was impotent and was NOT a fighter.

[mariacallous]

it's so annoying that the media is still covering races as if they have no wider effect, like okay you elected the "moderate" Republican, but that Republican will vote to empower Kevin McCarthy (or Mitch McConnell) who will decide what gets voted on on the floor, or in the case of Mitch in 2016, not voted on for a year. They will also empower people like Trey Gowdy to hold insane hearings about nonsense, a 2023 US House under the Republicans will quickly become a FOX News segment holding "hearings" and every Republican will vote to make that happen and the news should make that clear.

Exactly!

And also like... to use this specific example, I don't have any faith that the exceptions to abortion being banned (all of which are difficult to prove or be able to use, let's point that out) will be enough to outweigh their support for a nationwide abortion ban, or the pressure from their fellow Republicans to support such a ban.

This is the same fucking party that opposed the bill providing care and services to veterans exposed to fucking burn pits and other hazards out of a temper tantrum. The same party who some of them say they don't support or agree with Donald Trump but then go out of their way to seek his support or vote to protect him. The same party that talks about people of color being used by Democrats and then vote against voting rights protections or police abuse limitations and rail against "white people being made to feel ashamed of being white" and act like "critical race theory" is an evil bogeyman and against any kind of economic measures that might benefit them.

All the Republicans have is the cravenness of their convictions.

Apparently Ron DeSantis feels that science is "woke" and therefore needs to be suppressed.

Ron DeSantis has been accused of a “catastrophic” approach to the climate crisis after he launched his campaign for US president by saying he rejects the “politicization of the weather” and questioning whether hurricanes hitting his home state of Florida have been worsened by climate change.

DeSantis, the Republican Florida governor who announced his bid for the White House via a glitch-heavy Twitter stream on Wednesday, has previously dismissed concerns about global heating as “leftwing stuff” and he expanded upon this theme during a Fox News interview following his campaign launch.

“People tried to say when we had [Hurricane] Ian that it was because of climate change but if you look at the first 60 years from 1900 to 1960 we had more major hurricanes hit Florida than the 60 years since then,” DeSantis told his interlocutor, the former Republican congressman Trey Gowdy.

“This is something that is a fact of life in the Sunshine state. I’ve always rejected the politicization of the weather.”

DeSantis is telling Floridians, "Don't believe your lyin' eyes – or your wet feet for that matter."

Environmental groups have also taken aim at DeSantis over a record on climate they say is no better than Donald Trump’s, his rival for the Republican presidential nomination.

While governor, DeSantis has adopted bills banning Florida’s cities from adopting 100% clean energy goals and barred the state’s pension fund from making investment decisions that consider the climate crisis due to what he called a corporate attempt to “impose an ideological agendaon the American people”. He has also attacked the US military for being “woke” for warning about the national security risks posed by climate impacts.

DeSantis is a ruthlessly ambitious putz who is fixated on accumulating power at all costs.

Warm seas act like jet fuel to tropical cyclones. The temperature of the North Atlantic has unmistakably increased over the past hundred years.

Maybe DeSantis will try to blame "woke thermometers".

The problem for Florida is not so much the number of hurricanes but the intensity of hurricanes.

Category 5 storms making landfall in the US used to be rare. But two (Hurricane Michael, Hurricane Ian) have hit Florida in just the past five years.

Maybe DeSantis cut his high school physics class to watch far right porn. So he may have missed the lesson about warmer air being able to hold larger amounts of moisture.

While wind speed gets the most media attention, it's moisture in the form of rain and storm surge which kills the most people in hurricanes.

We all remember how Trump tried to use a Sharpie to modify a map showing the path of Hurricane Dorian. DeSantis would probably burn the map and close down the National Hurricane Center for being "woke".

DeSantis as president of the US would be a danger to the planet.

Trey Gowdy: Schumer didn’t want this to be aired publicly

[mightyflamethrower]

As Trey Gowdy noted during the night of the New Hampshire Primary, South Carolina voters like Tim Scott and Nikki Haley, with the former being the most popular politician in the state and the latter viewed as a good governor, could neither beat Trump.

Haley’s approval could be 90 percent—they’d still vote for Trump. It’s what it is. So, can someone explain why Haley was on Saturday Night Live last night 

SNL just had Nikki Haley appear as herself during their “Republican town hall” cold open……………..smh. Ayo Edebiri: What do you think was the main cause of the Civil War, and do you think it starts with an "S" and ends with a "lavery"?
