Imagine if this was a democratPosted By Rod Kaufman |
And McCarthy gives him committee assignments along with the extremist nutcases in his party. They could very well push this country into defaulting on its debt, something which they, and the cons on this forum, are absolutely clueless about...Originally Posted by Jim MoscheckSeems no one wants to talk politics (and stay on topic) here anymore. Resurrecting this dead thread that no one on the right wanted to talk about when it was started. How many lies have come out since then and still not a peep from you guys, especially the tightly-wound righty rightist here, although he'll just respond with a whataboutism.

1) Said his Grandparents fled the Holocaust.
2) Said his mother died as a result of 9/11
3) Said he was a Volleyball star
4) That Ponzi scheme he was involved in
5) Alleged crimes committed in Brazil
6) The allegedly stolen scarves
7) Said he was mugged on the way to delivering his rent check
8) All those $199.99 charges (There’s absolutely nothing shady about the fact that Santos’s campaign spent exactly $199.99 on 37 different campaign expenditures filed with the Federal Election Commission, which is incidentally exactly one cent below the dollar threshold above which the FEC requires campaigns to keep receipts. Not shady at all.)
9) This one frosts my cookies: Bilking a homeless veteran out of money raised to save his dying dog
10) Claiming he had “lost four employees” at the Pulse nightclub shooting
11) Having a staffer pretend to be Kevin McCarthy's chief of staff in campaign calls
So, what does McCarthy do? Appoints him to two committees, the Small Business committee and the Sciences committee. Just wow.
When Madison Cawthorn got crazy exposing alleged GOP orgies and coke parties you all ran him out on a rail, but this guy gets a pass???
And I didn't even mention his denial of being a drag queen when he was a young man in his home country of Brazil. I think this guy represents everything that the current crop of crazy republicans are. Liars, deniers, and conspiracy theorists. I'm talking about Green, Beobert, Gaetz, Gossart, and their ilk.
