China Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 The GOP is rotten to the core. Literally. Congressman loses tooth on camera, and Twitter snaps to attention Rep. Louie Gohmert appeared to lose a tooth during the middle of a press conference on Tuesday. The Republican representative from Texas was voicing his opposition to the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), which would rename several military bases and other government property named after Confederate leaders. The NDAA also includes bonuses for service members. Trump has threatened to veto the NDAA because it does not remove legal protections for social media sites like Twitter, which flagged tweets containing false or misleading information about the U.S. election. As he spoke, he appeared to pause mid-sentence as his tooth fell out. Click on the link for the full video Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Click on the link for the full video Gohmert publicly refused to wear a mask during this pandemic and tested positive for the coronavirus in July. According to the New York Times, people with pre-existing dental issues who had coronavirus have complained of losing their teeth, but there isn't evidence-backed research to link the two yet. Upon finding out that he had COVID-19, Gohmert began taking hydroxychloroquine, a malaria treatment pushed by President Trump whose effectiveness in treating COVID-19 was debunked by the National Institutes of Health. Gohmert was reportedly asymptomatic after his infection, and we can't say for certain that his wayward tooth was related to his coronavirus diagnosis. https://mashable.com/article/louie-gohmert-loses-tooth/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

China Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 Trump is afraid of all the state investigations and charges he will be subject to once he's out of office, which is why he's desperately trying to stay in office. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fergasun Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 Political ideology should never ask you to "check your brain at the door". Precisely what has happened to the GOP the past 4 years. What's going on in the past 4 weeks is insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fergasun Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 ... and all those states and 100 House Reps in this lawsuit, wonder if there are any that aren't white. What "these people" are really pissed about is the voting power of the inner cities, Milwaukee, Detroit, Atlanta and Philly. Sorry your vote suppression efforts failed. Maybe it is true that not all "right wing" voters are racist, but "right wing" policies lead to racist outcomes. When I see people having to say things like, "I am the least racist person I I know", or "There is not a racist bone in my body..." please. Its obvious why they smear "black lives matter" with "antifa". Because they can't fully admit "our policies lead to racist outcomes". And they may have to answer, "Why?". I am a illy white boy who grew up in DC. I will never have to directly deal with racism in my life, but when I see history, even 21st century history --- its easy to see that my life trajectory has benefitted from the color of my skin. Does it mean I haven't worked hard or not earned anything I have accomplished? No. But it means the hurdles and challenges I dealt with are different and much lower than the hurdles a black/brown person has to deal with in this country. No idea where that was going. I have no empathy for the modern klan.... and their Dukes of Hazard is showing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
China Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 A Political Obituary for Donald Trump To assess the legacy of Donald Trump’s presidency, start by quantifying it. Since last February, more than a quarter of a million Americans have died from COVID-19—a fifth of the world’s deaths from the disease, the highest number of any country. In the three years before the pandemic, 2.3 million Americans lost their health insurance, accounting for up to 10,000 “excess deaths”; millions more lost coverage during the pandemic. The United States’ score on the human-rights organization Freedom House’s annual index dropped from 90 out of 100 under President Barack Obama to 86 under Trump, below that of Greece and Mauritius. Trump withdrew the U.S. from 13 international organizations, agreements, and treaties. The number of refugees admitted into the country annually fell from 85,000 to 12,000. About 400 miles of barrier were built along the southern border. The whereabouts of the parents of 666 children seized at the border by U.S. officials remain unknown. Trump reversed 80 environmental rules and regulations. He appointed more than 220 judges to the federal bench, including three to the Supreme Court—24 percent female, 4 percent Black, and 100 percent conservative, with more rated “not qualified” by the American Bar Association than under any other president in the past half century. The national debt increased by $7 trillion, or 37 percent. In Trump’s last year, the trade deficit was on track to exceed $600 billion, the largest gap since 2008. Trump signed just one major piece of legislation, the 2017 tax law, which, according to one study, for the first time brought the total tax rate of the wealthiest 400 Americans below that of every other income group. In Trump’s first year as president, he paid $750 in taxes. While he was in office, taxpayers and campaign donors handed over at least $8 million to his family business. America under Trump became less free, less equal, more divided, more alone, deeper in debt, swampier, dirtier, meaner, sicker, and deader. It also became more delusional. No number from Trump’s years in power will be more lastingly destructive than his 25,000 false or misleading statements. Super-spread by social media and cable news, they contaminated the minds of tens of millions of people. Trump’s lies will linger for years, poisoning the atmosphere like radioactive dust.
