Happy 2nd Anniversary Of GOP's Terror Attack On Capitol!

By Susie Madrak — January 6, 2023

Republicans celebrated on the eve of Jan. 6th yesterday by nominating people other than Kevin McCarthy to be Speaker of the House. Here's who they nominated:

* Jim Banks
* Andy Biggs
* Byron Donalds
* Kevin Hern
* Jim Jordan
* Kevin McCarthy
* Donald Trump
* Lee Zeldin

Notice anything? All of them have cast votes in favor of overthrowing the U.S. government! We call them "insurrectionists." (They call themselves "patriots." Ha, ha!) This is something that happens when gullible and/or greedy people vote for Republicans.

Uncle Joe Biden, on the other hand, will celebrate the work of people who tried to protect our country from insurrectionist Republicans:

Don Jr. continues to make excuses for the traitors:

Junior says the “vast, vast, vast majority” of people arrested for J6 were “basically tourists” who thought it was ok to go inside and take selfies since the doors were open. pic.twitter.com/N3NJOkXCSr

Early this morning, barely awake, I accidentally found myself on Fox News where I heard, "Two years after her death, will there ever be justice for Ashli Babbitt?" Justice for Ashli Babbitt would have been someone caring enough about her to ensure she received mental health care.

Wouldn't it be funny if the Speaker vote continued until Special Counsel Jack Smith indicted the GOP members who were involved with January 6th Insurrection? That could make Hakeem Jeffries 212 votes the majority. We're deep into weird sh*t territory, so let's expand our minds.😉
