What is it with conservatives and cutting off their own heads? I’d suggest getting the Republicans their own lettuce, but we all know vegetables are for gay commies.

I’ve been listening to Mike Duncan’s podcast “Revolutions”. I recently finished the French Revolution, and there are some interesting similarities with the period following the revolution. Quoting from memory “The revolution eats her children. After the revolution, yesterday’s extremist became today’s moderate, and they would become tomorrow’s reactionary counter-revolutionary sitting before the tribunal with the guillotine all but assured. And all without once changing their policies or positions.”
Looking back from the Brooks Brothers riot until now, there seems to be a similar progression in dangerous extremism and a party eating itself from the inside. Obviously not a perfect parallel, but it seems to rhyme.

And thus they throw at least a couple of ~sane bits of legislation to the democrats favor by forcing Johnson with a deal to retain his seat by getting votes from democrats with a deal for a few bills. One supposes that all MTG needs to get out of it is some propagandistic edited clips on fox"news" as that’s all that’s watched in Georgia’s 14th; but man-oh-man, they really are the suicide party of stupid; and, of course, they may take us down with them -sigh-
