Politico received an initial tip that a Taylor staffer had a swastika neatly pinned to his cubicle during a zoom call. When confronted, the congressman’s press office pretty implausibly sought to present the situation as a police matter, and Politico went along with that in its headline and lede.

Capitol Police called to investigate swastika in GOP congressional office

An American flag altered to include an image of a swastika was found in Rep. Dave Taylor’s office.

It really is bizarre to me that every single member of GOP House leadership & the admin has decided their coordinated talking point this week is that the No Kings demonstrations this Sat are essentially acts of domestic terrorism. Are they that afraid of free & peaceful assembly?

Mitch McConnell voted to acquit Donald Trump in both of his impeachment trials. In 2021, after voting to acquit Trump, McConnell gave a powerful speech condemning Trump's actions related to the January 6th Capitol riot as a "disgraceful dereliction of duty".

Trump must love King George III. Why else copying his actions that spawned a revolution to rid a newly formed America from him.

"The list of charges against King George III...vividly resemble the tyrannical threats our nation faces from a man who is working aggressively to destroy our system of justice, reject our 249-year-old democratic project and secure himself a gilded throne." www.americaamerica.news/p/what-we-sh...

He gives $20 Billion of OUR dollars to bailout Argentina without consulting Congress or the American people. Does that seem like the actions of a KING to you?

FOX: Grijalva says you're afraid of her being the 218th signer to the Epstein petition, that if she was a Republican you would've sworn her in. What do you say?

MIKE JOHNSON: I say bless her heart. She's a representative-elect, she doesn't know how it works around here.

The GOP shut down the government. They’re driving up health care costs and refuse to negotiate.

Now Speaker Mike Johnson won’t swear in @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social because it would force a vote to release the Epstein files.

Swear her in, now!

Hey Mike Johnson – the more you facilitate a cover-up and do everything in your power to prevent the release of the Epstein files – the more your constituents, the American public, and the whole world are going to believe you are guilty of the exact same types of crimes as Jeffrey Epstein.
