Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

This is absolutely what is happening. She is the current rotating villain for the GOP. She's "allowed" to go against the party line and become a villain to a subset of their voters and to make "independent" voters think there is still sanity in the party.
I don't trust this woman at all. She enabled all of this. She has to do a lot more than this to redeem her behavior and voting record.
Remember when she harassed David Hogg before she was in office? She has no shame, she deserves no forgiveness for so little done in good faith.
Gotta say though, surely they didn't need to pick the "Rothchilds are using space lasers to start wildfires" and "Yes they can control the weather" person to be their "voice of sanity".
I mean they don't exactly have a large bench of sane people to pull from.
MTG is just brash, open, and loud with her insane takes.
I don't trust her at all, but I'd be lying if I'd say I don't enjoy them shredding each other.
It's like professional wrestling, where two characters are enemies until they decide to form a tag team against someone else.
Oh yeah, it's a joy to watch, regardless of how little we should trust them.
Ahem. Fuck that cunt. The news "sanewashing" of the space lazer lady is fucking insane. She has zero business being in politics. But my god does the US not realize how fucked it is before it's too late.
