Isn’t this the same McCarthy who is letting the Q cult take over his party and has no problem with Matt Gaetz? π€π π
Yep.
@Soul Crewblue …An ineffective hypocritical fraud.
Dude. There is just no such thing as QAnon. He just pronounced it Q-ay-nun. That is proof that it doesn’t exist!
@Deepak D’Souza couple crazies there with your ‘name’.
Yeah, the spineless coward
Kevin McCarthys’ entire career could be put in an e-mail. A short e-mail.
@Aatmik Mittal Nothing is what the Republican Party stands for.
@Aatmik Mittal or he could stick with the GOP’s embrace of 14 words.
π€π ππ€£ Baaaahahahahhaahaaaa!
π€π ππ€£
@Morris Kevin McCarthy life is when you keep getting an error pop up when trying to do something lol π
He career could go in spam or trash.
McCarthy is the rep for California’s 23rd district, which is in and around Bakersfield. It’s a dry, empty section of America that you’d feel sorry for anyone living there. Maybe he should focus a little more there than whatever the f*** you call what he’s doing now. π π
Ro G
yeah, I just bet you can pick out several of the Democrats districts with all the homeless and illegals along the streets and say they have so much to brag about LOL
I lived in that area as a kid and hated it cuz of the way people thought and acted.
Maybe that’s why he’s so dry and empty. I can’t stand that putz!
@Michael Schwartz No, Bakersfield is in the SE part of CA. Nunes is in the NW region. Different area but both a full of hicks. I lived south of Bakersfield for a couple of years in Taft. Describing them as hicks is being kind.
@stopthecrazyguy Gotcha. For some reason I had Nunes and Bakersfield linked in my head. Probably the hicks, lol
sad to see GOPS sleeping through Bidenβs speech, Trump followers have no interest in fixing anything to help Americans, just get out of Bidenβs way pleaseβ¦
Tim Scott: America is not racist
Also Tim Scott: here are fifteen different ways Iβve experienced racism in…America.
@Bianca Culpo I noticed your profile your white. Who told you everyone is racist?
@Katie Freeman what color a you and who told you that?
πππ€£ππ€£ππ€£ππ€£ππ€£ππ€£ππ€£ππ€£ππ€£ππ€£ππ€£ππ€£πππ―… Facts
GOP members are required to speak from both sides of their mouth. They consider logical consistency to be their #1 enemy.
What??? Where have YOU been Tim?
The Indians would have called him βman who speaks with forked tongueβ. We know the Republican Agenda: do nothing, cowtoe to corporations, and obstructionism.
John Juhasz… and the Natives American would call the republican party people who walk with devils and lies like the wind.
@Joel Rivard Clever.
@Bill Turner I thought it but I just ignored it. I’m glad you did not.
John Juhasz
have you ever looked to see how many corporations donate to the Democrats for favors? To be honest the past 2 decades has pretty much been Congress doing nothing so the Republicans are lined up perfectly with the Democrats. I prefer they do nothing because when they do anything is eats at my wallet. Obstructionism? Right. During Trump’s 4 years I watched everyday as Democrats jumped to work with him to improve the country. LOL I know the Democrats agenda , take over the country and do everything they can to
keep power and control, With in or outside the rules
Absolutely. We need to save this nation and our government by getting rid of politicians who DO NOTHING FOR THIS NATION!!
Small mind no room for just a few things like a Dr Seuss book and a Mr potato Head.
..or injecting oneself with bleach, and what have you
I’m a rebulicans but those rebulicans are not going to do anything like always that’s why I won’t vote any of them
If you know this why do you still remain a Republican. They havenβt been American for years.
You woke up. Welcome.
Kevin Mccarthy should have been kissing Trump’s Ring at Maralgo instead of Capitol Building.
I’m sure there are plenty of his lip prints on 45s backside which is the go to for sycafants. The ring is reserved for family and co-conspirtors with some power. If seeking gratis from a failed and soon to be jailed wanna be president is all he has left? McMoney is soon to run out of options for begging.
I thought he was tRumps ring π©ππ
Donβt you mean on all fours kissing his …….
he kiss his ring alright, that brown one hahahahahahah, Go KEV!
KM has orange stains in his mouth.
An e mail would have still been better than anything that comes out of the gop mouths
@TheHugeDwarf you did not provide any counter evidence, just emotions. I’ll wait for your counter argument.
Your sick mindset equates flourishing as Gucci belts and a mansion where as I’m talking about social cohesion within black communities.
Btw, I’m probably darker skinned than you and my blood line is definitely more melinated. So check yourself son.
@Deepak D’Souza flourishing does not mean living in a mansion and wearing Gucci belts. I’m talking in respects to community structures and bonds. If you live your life comparing yourself to white people then you’re in a sad place brother.
@Ebaneezer Scourge although I don’t agree with you as to whoa to blame. I have to agree that the black community in the states willingly fell for social engineering.
Their women sold them out. Just like during slavery . Their women sold them out. It’s the modern Adam and Eve story.
@Ebaneezer Scourge Is that you believe people that say to your face that you’re stupid for trusting them?
Too bad trump won’t see or hear that firsthand. He wouldn’t get an atta boy anyway.
The Party that demanded respect for their evil leader, now trolling a competent Executive.
@David Guelette 75 million people must be delusional then? No you mean your just a fascist anti American who doesn’t like opposing views.
@Insignificant360 Are you that in denial you can’t see the guys health and mind is declining? Go back to him 4 5 10 years ago and tell me Biden is with it and well now as then. Get your head out your backside.
@Ben Smith Still projecting for Baby Cheesus.
@Ben Smith troll for your supper somewhere else Ben
@David Guelette You commented to me first I didn’t comment to you so who’s the troll?
So the worst thing the Republicans can say about Biden is that he’s boring? Well, guess what? After four years of the Trump soap opera, I will gladly take boring!
A wise man speaks because he has something to say. A fool speaks because he has to say something.
-Plato
@Ines 100% wrong. You just proved Plato correct. Fool.
@GratefulHippieChic no problem fool
@GratefulHippieChic Wouldn’t *_”Hairy legs & pits clam unkept”_* be a more accurate user name?
@Alex Hamilton *_If Podesta only had better hand-writing ……… Scalise and Scalia hits wouldn’t get so fouled up._*
@rayism 24b aww, you’re jealous of me. That’s cute. π
He probably drafted his co:mments before he heard Biden’s speech. What a prat.
I can’t believe that guy got up there and did what Republicans do best (LIE),,,Scott said that racism doesn’t exist in America and turned right around and said he’s been called the N word by progressives and liberals, news flash, you’ve been called that by the Republicans too
President Biden laid out his plan while Republicans looked annoyed that they do not have a plan other than following trump over the cliff to dictatorship.
Reba doesn’t realize it Biden that the dictator but you can’t teach stupid so don’t bother to educate this one.
@Jake TFour Well, obviously your head is still up trump’s behind. Is that why you refuse to see trump as the wanna be dictator that he is is.
Being brainwashed is no excuse for following a traitor and Putin puppet.
Get back to me in 6 months when your cowardly leader is in lockdown for his crimes.
@TonnΓ© k Infrastructure, tax hike, medical, prescription drug prices, removal of troops from Afghanistan,
Covid-19 guidelines and distribution…Where were you? Injecting disinfectant or playing with your UV light?
@Alex Hamilton Sound as if you are talking about yourself here. You swallowed every lie trump spewed. Now look at the evidence of every lie. Where is he ? At Mar a logo begging for your money and plotting behind the scenes trying his best to destroy democracy. You cheer for a Putin puppet not a leader of this country, truly pathetic.
@Scott Buskirk So being articulate, intelligent and less whiny does not work for you? I wonder why? Four years of whiny misinformation, covid will disappear like a miracle or inject disinfectant is your speed huh…
“This whole thing could’ve been a email” yeah says the guy tweeting, these people spend way to much time on social media & not so much doing their constituents a better representation. π
Republicans doing nothing has been a thing for over 60 years
Yeah like Pelosi district is better with tents everywhere and try not to step in human sh**
@Joel Rivard yes it is better because what you just said was pure shyt
@TheHugeDwarf AWESOME REMARK…. God BLESS you & YOURS….TRUE AMERICANSππ½π½π½πΈ
He got confused because Biden was speaking in sentences to the people instead of sound bites to a mirror.
There ARE such things as very long emails – I write lots of them myself. They used to be known as “letters.” If Kevin McCarthy never writes any – so much the worse for him.
Are you saying he can actually write? Wow!
I am tending to believe he does not understand the impact of a well-written, and hand-written, letter. Unfortunately, he likely has political postcards and flyers printed and considers them “correspondence.” Fortunately, junk mail gets the big delete – right into the trash bin next to my mailbox.
Please, please put the whole speech in an email and send it to McCarthy… repeatedly, every day, for the rest of his term.
Wicked idea – I like! ππππππ
π€£π€£π€£π€£ that would be priceless
I just emailed him the transcript of the speech. Had to jump through zip code verification BS though.
@MooseHead ππ½ππ½ππ½ππ½ππ½ππ½ππ½BROVO! π
@MooseHead πππ
And the last bone in McCarthy’s spine drops out of his behind, and leaves town in disgust.
I figure he left it in Mar a Lago. He briefly found it, on the 6th, but came back from kissing the ring, without it.
McCarthy just canβt understand why anyone would want to actually do something for the people.
That concept is a GQP mind blower.
