I was waiting (and wanting) for Hawley to stand up, pound the desk and say, “Resign! The only good thing you can do now is RESIGN IN DISGRACE you corrupt liar!” But then I realized we only get lip service and no one is actually held responsible with actionable consequences. 😔
all talk no walk. it's all a show to get people on either side bothered. there is never accountability. these cushy government jobs are just that...cushy, safe, not going anywhere no matter.
While I can completely agree with your sentiment (my husband is totally in line with that view too), I still see it as a primary process and push walk to expose injustice (with no adjectives), so that we’re educating families, cities, states (sphere of influence roles), and it should first start with the Gospel (1 Corth 15:1-11). As this didn’t start overnight, it won’t correct overnight absent the Lord Jesus Christ’s hand (and that’s not what the Bible says will happen!). America has been under God’s judgment for decades. So there’s that... Rom 1
As in history, ethical and moral people still follow just laws but Marxist amoral people are AMN. That’s what you’re seeing- bread and circuses.
We must be Rom 13:1 and ultimately Acts 5:29.
Grateful to Jeff that he’s collecting and pointing all of this out!
Calls to resign are kind of a rhetorical cliche, no one ever takes them seriously. I like the kind of understated way Hawley did it. Kind of implied. The way he nailed Garland to the wall over his lack of answers or , it was obvious to anyone normal watching that if this was a real world situation where Hawley was the employer and Garland an employee, Garland would be terminated for cause.
Doesn't matter who Democrats put on the SCOTUS when they get a chance. They are 100% guaranteed to vote the right way (for democrats) on every important case. They never disappoint, and their personal judicial thoughts are irrelevant. They just vote how they are supposed to, as Garland undoubtedly would have.
But, yes, thank goodness the senate was able to put off Garland's nomination until Trump came in.
They did not expect Trump to win. The Swamp rats are not just the Dems. McConnell is just one of the same except with an R in front. They figured once Hillary won, they would try and push Garland through as he was labeled a “moderate”. No such thing only varying levels of swamp dwelling. Notice how the country is being run by old white men, the very antithesis of what the Dems purport to be.
You may be right, though I tend to give thee Turtle credit for the judicial stuff. He was quite aggressive with holding up Obama nominees to all courts, and with getting Trump's nominees for all courts confirmed.
Why hold up Garland if Hillary was sure to get in? I've read no Ds were privately too concerned about Garland, because he was a fig leaf to tempt moderate Rs, then when Hillary got in and senate flipped she could pull him and nominate someone of the right gender/race.
I give the Turtle no credit, other than being the consummate politician. He blocked the nomination of Garland to appease a very restless base that was getting tired of a GOP that pandered at election time then joined their Liberal friends in the Swamp land pursuits, which was grifting the American public while catering to the industrial complex.
Oh yeah, I wouldn't give McConnell or most Rs in congress credit for having idealistic principles or anything like that! I don't really care what's in a politician 's heart as long as he does the right thing. And McConnell, for whatever political reason, was really solid on nominations.
I suspect, though, that it's more a heart thing that he never really supported Trump, pulled support for good senate candidates, doesn't fight ridiculous D spending bills, loves Ukraine, etc.
The last sentence kind of reads like an indictment of what a US Senator is supposed to be. He plays the game for himself and all the Swamp and could give a rat’s behind about his constituents or America at large. When Rush was still alive, one of his last broadcasts he talked about someone he knew in the Senate. After the 2020 election, around J6, they had a Senate breakfast. It was said McConnell walked into give Kamala a hug, and stated, “things are back as they should be”. The good old boys club. Disgusting.
That clip is fantastic. It may be all talk, with no ability to actually discipline officials like Garland, but man, what a dressing down! Garland might as well have been sitting there naked, it was so awkward for him. Hawley nailed him down so well.
Haha sissy! I kept thinking of winkin, blinkin and not so much nod. 😂😂😂😂. He should have just kept his eyes shut. It truly was DELIGHTFUL to watch that. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
That Merrick Garland clip.... can I just say worth its weight in gold!!! It even gave me an adrenaline rush. PLEASE MORE OF THIS. Thank you Jeff

Just like Rand Paul, as the saying goes all talk no action. Just talking to move the air around.
He’s an expert at base rattling just noise no action. I quit listening to him.
High paying theater jobs. Some improv required but scripts are the norm.
Trey Gowdy enters the chat.
Rattle the Base. The official congress critter moniker.
Yeah I couldn't even watch. Dude just gave mealy-mouthed non-answers. Where's Perry Mason to say "Yes or no, Grandma Garland"?
Why do they even hold these hearings when nothing ever happens?

No accountability, none.

I guess I should’ve included - resign and go put on your orange jump suit but I understand the calls for resignation are pointless.
Totally agree. One. I’m just asking for ONE to go to jail!!!!
McCarthy will not let house push for impeachments. Weak
Not surprised. Didn’t expect anything out of that rino anyway. It’s all smoke and mirrors.
Garland is such a creep. Where do they find these doofs?
Just think he could have been on SCOTUS 😳
We dodged a big one when he didn’t get onto the SC
The biggest accomplishment of Turtle McConnell. It's been all downhill since Turtle kept ((Garland)) out of the Court.

And his fingers rubbing together to try and remain calm. Didn’t happen for him.
