They're making no effort at all to hide the bigotry.
Complete with "get your mind right."
MAGA cultist pastor Shane Vaughn unleashed a racist rant against Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, repeatedly calling her "Judge Jumanji Jungle Lips." https://t.co/3RJnIGRMif pic.twitter.com/D0rBMSAorA

So if Ronna McDaniel suddenly starts acting like she's "one of the not-so-fucking-crazy" Republicans for her new gig at NBC, what are we supposed to take from that?
Ronna McDaniel joins NBC News as contributor
Ronna McDaniel, the former head of the Republican National Committee (RNC), will join NBC News as a contributor.
McDaniel will appear on “Meet The Press” this Sunday, giving her first interview since resigning as head of the RNC earlier this year.
McDaniel is expected to be featured as part of election coverage on NBC and on the network’s sister cable channel, MSNBC.
“It couldn’t be a more important moment to have a voice like Ronna’s on the team,” Carrie Budoff Brown, who leads political coverage at NBC, wrote in a memo shared with The New York Times.
McDaniel became RNC chair with Trump’s backing in 2017 and won reelection four times, but she has recently clashed with the former president, who is expected to be the party’s nominee for president this fall.
Trump has attacked NBC and MSNBC in recent weeks, accusing the network of being a tool for Democrats and suggesting he would crack down on the network if elected president.
- That she was play-acting at RNC, and not really the Trump sycophant she appeared to be?
- That she's play-acting now, and she really is the scum bucket she's appeared to be?
- Will she be able to get Trump's dick out of her mouth so we can understand what she's saying, or will she have a whole new set of dicks in her mouth now, or what?
I honestly don't get it, and I'm more convinced I did the right thing by dumping my cable subscriptions that carry MSNBC. Fuck 'em - fuckin' Press Poodles.
Maybe she's ready to do a Nicolle Wallace and turn into a more or less decent human being, and spill some beans on just how fucked up the GOP is now, but c'mon - what the fuck was all that back there, Ronna?

Another'n Bites It
218 Republicans minus Ken Buck and Mike Gallagher = 216
213 Democrats plus two Republicans willing to vote with them = 215-to-214 and Dems win
Rep. Mike Gallagher announces he’ll resign in April, further narrowing House GOP majority
Rep. Mike Gallagher (R-Wis.) announced Friday he will resign effective April 19, further narrowing Republicans’ already razor-thin House majority.
Gallagher, who had already announced he would not seek reelection this year, said he made the decision to resign after conversations with his family. He currently chairs the House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party.

“I’ve worked closely with House Republican leadership on this timeline and look forward to seeing Speaker [Mike] Johnson appoint a new chair to carry out the important mission of” the committee, Gallagher said in a statement.
Republicans currently have a five-seat majority after Rep. Ken Buck (R-Colo.) resigned Friday, leaving the House earlier than he initially anticipated because he found his majority to be unproductive.
Gallagher has represented Wisconsin’s 8th Congressional District since 2017.
He announced in February he would not run for another term, saying in a statement that “electoral politics was never supposed to be a career and, trust me, Congress is no place to grow old.”

Encouragement
Seems like a pretty good sign when a judge rules that free speech is not an absolute or unlimited thing.
And I don't know how we got to the point where we've allowed this stupid notion that anything goes as long as it pads my bottom line.
I'm pretty sure there was this whole Civil Fucking War that was fought over that one, and it was decided:
NO - you don't get to do whatever the fuck you want to do in order to make your mortgage payment. There are limits, goddamn it.
The lawsuit might also explain why Elon Musk has been all over TwiXter, pissing and moaning about it (even more than usual) for like a week or more.
The Product Liability angle sounds promising. We'll see - the NRA, with the help of lots of their coin-operated politicians, got gun makers exempt from this kind of suit.

At about 60 bucks per donation, all he needs is another 6 million rubes to kick in (by Monday), and that'll put him just $110 million short.
Maybe he could talk Engeron into an installment plan.
