    An overstatement? Her sheer looniness seems to render her an unserious enough threat to rise to the level of cancer. A serious persistent sinus infection maybe.

      Which is crazier and more damaging? The idea that the Jews have a space laser or the idea that equality means equal outcomes?

      I was going to say the same thing. The Democrat's path to equity for all of their identity groups is madness for the nation. MTG's wackiness is madness pretty much relegated to a small snippet of rural Georgia.

      And as echoed by Cats, "Her sheer looniness seems to render her an unserious enough threat to rise to the level of cancer."

        Yeah, but I'm betting the Dem political class is savvy enough to know that this is a non-starter that is good for decades of inter-group squabbling. Leaving them with nothing to do but toss out some soothing rhetoric once in awhile.

          If they can keep a lid on it. Somehow this feels like a Marvel Comics character (Dr. Octopus?) trying to contain the energy...

            Remember when Biden told a bunch of African Americans that Republicans were "Going to put ya'll back in chains"?

              Yes I remember when Biden said that. It betrayed the fact that all leftists are inherently racist to their core. It's really sad, and one of the many reasons why I pray for them. The evil in their hearts must weigh so heavily. I feel so sorry for all of them.

                    Rep. Cheney already voted to impeach Trump, and not being a Senator they does not get to vote to “convict” anyway. So Chris Wallace‘s question is a bit superfluous. Still, Rep. Cheney is not to win any point from the GOP by holding out on the question of ”conviction” now. Might as well go all out and say yes to convict. I’m fairly certain that‘s how she feels anyway.

                      He couldn't admit or even realize losing and claimed election fraud. If the small group of crazies hadn't "invaded" the largely unguarded Capitol, this sort of rhetoric would not be viable.

                        Meanwhile a old white dude is playing against a young black dude for the most watched sports event in the US (probably over 100 million people). We will truly be United for a few hours in healthy competition.

                        I guess we need Trump bait to entice the rest to click.

                                Vote for Greene. She won her primary and then got almost 75% of the vote in the general. She is very pro- Second Amendment and pro-life. She has also been the CFO of a successful small business and owner of another.

                                Yes, she's had some controversial views, but as long as that doesn't infringe on how she represents her district, it's her district's business. If we can put up with people like Omar, AOC or Sheila Jackson Lee, the nation can put up with her.

                                Pulling her committee assignments should not have been done. It establishes a very horrible precedent.

                                          @jolly that is a good point you make. The more attention you give, the more attention they will get.

                                          Isn’t that saying, “there is no such thing as bad attention” or something like that.
