The House of Representatives has stripped Marjorie Taylor Greene of her committee assignments. According to the CNN, Thusday’s vote was 230-199, with congress members voting largely down party lines. All Democrats and 11 Republicans voted in favor of the resolution, citing concern over Greene’s inflammatory rhetoric and support for baseless QAnon conspiracy theories. The Georgia lawmaker and outspoken Trump […]
In the wake of losing Georgia in the 2020 runoff election, GOP leaders and strategists are scrambling to launch an attack against the woman who made the Democrats’ victory in her home state possible: the remarkable Stacey Abrams. Abrams, who lost the 2018 governor race to Republican Brian Kemp, launched her organization Fair Fight in […]
Even Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, who’s both a Republican and a rotting-in-public hurdle for progressive policies, is placing the blame for the violent (and ultimately fatal) attack on the Capitol earlier this month on Trump‘s shoulders. Speaking from the Senate floor on Tuesday, just one day ahead of the beginning of the Biden-Harris administration, […]
Sadly, the 2008 Coen Brothers crime comedy Burn After Reading wasn’t trending early Monday morning as a result of a random communal appreciation of the somewhat overlooked entry in the auteurial duo’s catalog.

Trump is expected to issue around 100 pardons and commutations on the final full day of his single-term presidency, according to a new report.

In the aftermath of the violent riot that took place at the U.S. Capitol last week, Hallmark Cards has asked that a pair of Republican Senators, namely Josh Hawley (Mo.) and Roger Marshall (Kan.), return the four-figure donations that it made to them. That’s kind of a weird sentence. As first reported in the political newsletter […]
Melania Trump, whose husband is a failed steak salesman, has finally carved out enough time in her schedule to respond to last week’s violent (and ultimately fatal) invasion of the Capitol by MAGA supporters. In a statement shared to the official White House site on Monday, Melania said she was “disappointed and disheartened with what happened […]
The brain-boggling events of Jan. 6, 2021 on U.S. Capitol grounds, in addition to making zero sense and being a total waste of time for those responsible, have resulted in dozens of arrests and several deaths. According to D.C. police, there were at least 52 arrests made among the violent and petulant mob of MAGA […]
As if the panicked echoings of Trump‘s baseless 2020 presidential election-centered fraud claims from many Republicans haven’t made it clear enough, let’s say it again: Georgia really did it. They bagged two Democrats in their nationally anticipated Senate runoff elections, meaning the next four years for incoming POTUS Joe Biden’s team will go much smoother in terms of […]
