Can you imagine being one of these MAGAt assholes sitting in jail because they believed the Big Lie, following dear leader's orders to march on the Capitol, then finding out Gohmert is telling everyone you're really Antifa?

Next Gohmert will state that Poland invaded Germany thereby starting WW2.

No, everyone knows that WWII started when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor!

Rep. Nancy Mace SC-01 carefully vandalizes herself where it is easily cleanable…

I especially like the orientation. Because everyone knows that a vandal would NEVER walk up the house and spray paint it, oh no! They would always walk up to the front door, TURN THEIR BACK TO IT, AND _THEN_ PAINT ON THE GROUND. Because turning your back to the building would put them in a place of safety. Thats how _all_ the great vandals do it. Good thing they ONLY painted the ground where a powerwashing will clean it in seconds and not on the house or somewhere it might be more difficult!

Reminds me of that woman who carved a B on her face and claimed black supporters of Barack Obama did it... only for people to point out that things look backwards in a mirror.

Finally, some real voter fraud.
Former Republican lawmaker charged with 4 felony counts of voter fraud

Prosecutors announced this Thursday that former Anchorage GOP Rep. Gabrielle LeDoux is facing four felony counts of voter misconduct. Also facing two felony charges former legislative aide, Lisa Simpson, Alaska Public Media reports.
:snippity:
The charges against LeDoux came after state elections officials notified the Alaska State Troopers of what they described as irregularities with absentee ballot applications during her 2018 re-election campaign. The FBI also participated in the investigation.

Simpson’s son has been charged with voter misconduct as well.

I don't know if this qualifies as "badly", I suppose it is more "stupidly"...
Majority of Republicans think state reviews will change 2020 outcome: poll
:snippity:
The findings underscore how pervasive former President Trump’s false claims that the 2020 election was tainted by widespread voter fraud and malfeasance have become among Republican voters in the more than seven months since the November election.

Nearly five months since leaving the White House, Trump has continued to spread conspiracy theories about the election and has reportedly even gone as far as to privately float the idea that he could be reinstated as president.

Another Morning Consult poll released earlier this month found that roughly 3 in 10 Republicans believe that it is at least somewhat likely that Trump will be reinstated as president, even though such an outcome is impossible.

The U.S. Constitution does not include a process by which a former president can be restored to office without a regular election.

The Republican Party is rapidly becoming the party of the stupid. Their statements and positions repel most intelligent voters (except white supremacists and racists), which leaves only the morans. This is not really a successful long-term strategy, it seems to me.

And as they double down, that sad fact (for them) is that the majority of American voters are not THAT stupid, as we saw in the last election.

Too bad for them.

I guess this could also fit in Florida Man. It's out there enough to have a Carl Hiaasen feel to it as well. Primaries are brutal in FL.
In secret recording, Florida Republican threatens to send Russian-Ukrainian ‘hit squad’ after rival
“I really don't want to have to end anybody's life for the good of the people of the United States of America. ... But if it needs to be done, it needs to be done," William Braddock says in the clip.

MIAMI — A little-known GOP candidate in one of Florida’s most competitive congressional seats was secretly recorded threatening to send “a Russian and Ukrainian hit squad” to a fellow Republican opponent to make her “disappear.”

During a 30-minute call with a conservative activist that was recorded before he became a candidate, William Braddock repeatedly warned the activist to not support GOP candidate Anna Paulina Luna in the Republican primary for a Tampa Bay-area congressional seat because he had access to assassins. The seat is being vacated by Rep. Charlie Crist (D-Fla.), who is running for governor.

“I really don't want to have to end anybody's life for the good of the people of the United States of America,” Braddock said at one point in the conversation last week, according to the recording exclusively obtained by POLITICO. “That will break my heart. But if it needs to be done, it needs to be done. Luna is a f---ing speed bump in the road. She's a dead squirrel you run over every day when you leave the neighborhood.”

Is that arrestable? I mean, obviously it won't hurt him in the primary, because FL Repugs.

https://www.newyorker.com/books/page-tu ... department
Last year, in the early hours of October 27th, Philip Walton, an American citizen living and working as a farmer in southern Niger, was kidnapped in front of his family by armed mercenaries. The militants demanded a million-dollar ransom from Walton’s family and threatened to sell the American to local extremist groups. As Walton’s captors smuggled him across the border into northern Nigeria, Navy seals planned a rescue operation. Several days later, as the seals stood ready to conduct the raid, then Secretary of State Mike Pompeo was on a government plane, flying back to the United States after travelling in Asia. A State Department staffer entered Pompeo’s cabin and updated the secretary on Walton’s case. The staffer outlined the steps that Pompeo would need to take to facilitate the exfiltration, including a call to the President of Niger.

To the surprise of his aides, Pompeo pushed back on the staffer’s requests. Pompeo grew visibly annoyed with the request that he make the phone calls, eventually replying, “When am I going to sleep?” The staffer told Pompeo that the American citizen being held was unlikely to be sleeping much. At the end of the discussion, Pompeo agreed to make the necessary calls. On the morning of October 31st, the seals parachuted from an Air Force Special Operations Command plane and rescued Walton, killing six of his kidnappers. Donald Trump and Pompeo later boasted about the operation on Twitter, where Pompeo called it “outstanding.” Staffers said the tweet was one of multiple instances when Pompeo appeared to use his position to boost his or Trump’s political fortunes.

Yes, I voted against funding the police, but there were a couple Democrats that said bad things about the police, so it’s not like they can hire anyone anyway.

South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem:

Today, Governor Kristi Noem announced that up to fifty South Dakota National Guard troops are being deployed to Texas to help the secure the border between the United States and Mexico. This is in response to Texas Governor Greg Abbott’s request for help to respond to ongoing violations of state and federal law by illegal aliens crossing the unsecured border.

“The Biden Administration has failed in the most basic duty of the federal government: keeping the American people safe,” said Governor Kristi Noem.

“The border is a national security crisis that requires the kind of sustained response only the National Guard can provide. We should not be making our own communities less safe by sending our police or Highway Patrol to fix a long-term problem President Biden’s Administration seems unable or unwilling to solve. My message to Texas is this: help is on the way.”

South Dakota Adjutant General Jeff Marlette and the South Dakota Department of the Military are working with their counterparts in Texas to finalize the details of this mission. The deployment will be paid for by a private donation.

For operational security reasons, specific names of units, number of members, and mission specifics will not be released.

SD Democratic Party@SoDakDems
Kristi Noem says the deployment of our South Dakota National Guard to Texas “will be paid for by a private donation.” Kristi Noem has turned our military into mercenaries. It is morally wrong to deploy troops for political purposes using private funds.

How would that even work? Are they just taking off-duty national guards people and giving them some kind of LEO mandate with private funds?
