Love Don’t Live Here (Rep. Chip Roy R-TX)
I don’t know if it’s in the video (no CC – and JD, that is NOT a hint I want you to go back and redo it; I can Google it if it’s critical), but he actually said this at the hearing:

PS: Hey, Chip – Do us all a favor and cover your damn nose w/ your damn mask!
Christian Nationalism is Fueling COVID Disinformation
I just don’t get the willful ignorance of Talibangelical christianists.
Hear witness describe escaping Boulder
No CC (no CC – and JD, that is NOT a hint I want you to go back and redo it; I can Google it if it’s critical) but I’ve seen this guy interviewed on TV. He’s quite impressive and insightful. (But I wonder what’s wrong w/ his left eye. And OK – it got 8.5k UP votes, but how did it get 2.9 DOWN votes?)
Trump & Melania in DEBT!!
Love that Donnie’s jet is falling apart & requires repairs he probably can’t afford.

You’re In My Chair – A Cat Song
I’ll give Nike his due on this issue: When I come back from a couple day trip – or even if I’m gone for more than about three hours – when I get home he’s ecstatic! He rubs against my legs, rolls around, wants tummy rubs, and is really wonderful to be around.
I guess absence truly DOES make the heart grow fonder!
… Ted Cruz
Apparently Ted’s Title as “MOST HATED MAN IN CONGRESS – INCLUDING REPUBLICANS” even extends to his own daughter (and who can blame her?):
Yes, the rope/tree quote was included in the clip. As it should be. (and your underwear comment is accurate, but I’ve also heard it compared to wearing a condom over one’s balls.)
This Now This News video quotes extensively from the CNN interview, and des have CC, and the eye is not mentioned. i re-watched including gong to full screen, and all I see is normal asymmetry – his right eye doesn’t open quite as wide as his left one does. The direction the light is coming from may emphasize it – his left eye is more shadowed and hence more prominent – stronger outlines. One of the downvotes could have been Lauren Boebert who has been calling it a “false flag” and insisting “no one died.”
I love the mask cartoon, Nameless. Now I’m wondering what the equivalence for women would be, though.
I’m not supposed to wear my underwear that way?!!?
PRU: These guys make very effective and impressive anti-Republican ads. I hope they keep it up.
MT: ABC News: AstraZeneca may have included “outdated information” in touting the effectiveness of its COVID-19 vaccine in a US study, federal health officials have said, in an unusual public rift that could further erode confidence in the shot. [emphasis mine] Sure, the Talibengicals are doing a lot of harm with their insane conspiracy theories but publicly throwing doubt on the effectiveness of the AstraZeneca vaccines before being clear on the accusations doesn’t help either.
CNN: The other guy is no longer dominating each and every news item with his tweets and behaviour and it’s back to good-old-fashioned mass shootings within a week. Sorry, to be so blunt but what the heck is wrong with the country. The majority of the American people is for gun control and yet Republicans always turn it into a bipartisan issue and oppose anything that will harm their sponsors.
SS: 😻 Awesome song, though I’m not sure my Mollie would agree.
Beau: “It seems that the Republican Party is actively attempting to undermine the representative democracy we have in the United States.” Are you serious, Beau? Seem? They’ve been doing so for years and one of their “high points” was the attack on the Capitol to prevent Congress from making the vote tallies of the presidential election official. An attack for which said Ted Cruz was partly responsible by inciting the mob.
KO: Passionate for a good cause. His questions need answering once and for all.
Thanks JD.
Sick Hugs. 💩
