Here is the woman who replaced Liz Cheney, yet another election denier, speaking to Wray at their House hearing.

Quote:
The American people fully understand,” Rep. Harriet Hageman (R-Wyo.) informed Wray at Wednesday’s hearing before the House Judiciary Committee, “… that you have personally worked to weaponize the FBI against conservatives.”
Hey lady (not really), what Americans? Just the 30% MAGA morons.

Quote:
“Insane.” “Absurd.” “Ludicrous.” Those are the actual words FBI Director Christopher Wray used to describe House Republicans’ crackpot conspiracy theories.
Insane is just what they are.

Lying, fabrication & dissembling are the norm for Repub politicians, and it doesn't bother Repub voters, as they believe it helps to own the Libs.

Just imagine if Biden had replaced Wray with one of his own choices, though this is not customary. But Trump had Comey fired, whereas Obama kept Mueller and then nominated Comey after Mueller's extended term.

Here is a report on DeFascist aligned PAC "Never Back Down" canvassing tactics. They have hired and trained paid employees mostly out of state to do the door to door knocking. Imagine someone knocking on the door of a Trumper but has no clue about the politics in this country, especially youngsters in it just for the money. It seems they are all trained to say "I love DeSantis", a sickening thought.

If you believe in privatization, this does makes sense. Instead of committed volunteers pleading and cajoling voters, outsource it to a private companies. Also, couple of the private contracting companies are owned by the PAC's management, so the grift is on.

Door-knocker complaints show risks of DeSantis super PAC strategy

Quote:
Unlike traditional presidential field organizing — which is run by an official campaign and driven largely by volunteers — the Never Back Down effort is staffed with an army of paid workers, many of whom have responded to advertisements that offer positions for $20 to $22 an hour. Trained in Iowa during an eight-day class, some come out of the system with polished pitches, as true believers. Others are just there for a job.
Surprised Trumpers are not infiltrating this group and sabotage their operation. Seems like it would be easy to do.

Oh Oh, DeSantis already firing staffers.

Quote:
Ron DeSantis’ presidential campaign has fired roughly a dozen staffers — and more are expected in the coming weeks as he shakes up his big-money political operations after less than two months on the campaign trail.

Those who were let go were described to NBC News by a source familiar as mid-level staffers across several departments whose departures were related to cutting costs. The exits come after the departures of David Abrams and Tucker Obenshain, veterans of DeSantis’ political orbit, which were first reported by Politico.
I am going to bet a $ on Trump to win the nomination. I can already Trump gloating and truthing. One of the problem is that all he can talk about is Woke, Florida and his family.

WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas have stirred controversy by co-authoring a Supreme Court opinion declaring that yachts are people.

The sweeping opinion, which yachts’-rights organizations immediately hailed as “long overdue,” grants the luxury vessels the unlimited ability to entertain government officials on their decks in order to gain political influence.

“For decades, yachts have been tireless in their struggle to be treated like human beings,” Harland Dorrinson, the president of the National Council on Equality for Boats, said. “For them, this victory represents the end of a long, hard regatta.”

And this guy should know. He and his partner worked with Rudy to concoct fake dirt on Biden and get the anti-corruption crusading career US ambassador, Marie Javonovitch, fired.
