“You talk about your mom a lot, and I know you just lost her as well. I’m sorry for your loss,” Rep. Sean Duffy (R-Wisc.) said to Secretary of the Department of Housing and Urban Development Ben Carson during an oversight hearing on Wednesday. “But if you were acting uncivil, and you told your mother, ‘But mom, I’m acting uncivil because someone else was uncivil to me.’ What would she say to you?” “She would say, your guide should be what is right,” Carson replied, “and not what other people do.” References to civility were a recurring theme among House Republicans during the House Financial Services Committee hearing.

  • What Part Of Trump's Anatomy Has Ted Cruz Kissed?
    Crooks and Liars, Tuesday - 12/03/2024 - 12:24 PM

    On Fox News Monday evening, Sen. Ted 'Cancún' Cruz continued to debase himself by criticizing the MSNBC Morning Joe team in a lewd manner. This was in response to Joe and Mika's admittedly disastrous visit to Mar-A-Gofundme to talk to Donald Trump after the election. Ted Cruz was Trump's final opponent in the 2016 Republican primary race and was subjected to horrific attacks by Trump against both Cruz's wife and father. Who is kissing what? HANNITY: and then it goes further.

  • Mayer: More Pete Hegseth Stories 'Coming Out Of The Woodwork'
    Crooks and Liars, Tuesday - 12/03/2024 - 12:22 PM

    Jane Mayer of the New Yorker appeared on the Rachel Maddow show last night to talk about the bombshell story about Secretary of Defense nominee Pete Hegseth, and she dropped this little tidbit. "We gave Hegseth two days basically to respond, and they have not denied a single thing in this report, so they just said no, after being given very careful questions," she said. "The other thing I would like to say is just that it has been almost a day since this story came out, and my phone has been ringing off the hook.

  • Nick Fuentes Mocks Men For Not Wanting To Rape Women
    Crooks and Liars, Tuesday - 12/03/2024 - 11:31 AM

    Trump's former dinner guest and a leader of the Neo-Nazi movement went on a misogynistic and violent jag against the rights of women in sexual assault. This is not unlike him, but he's also reveled in his delight of taking over the MAG GOP. FUENTES: A sweet, nice, little guy that isn't threatening, that isn't gonna rape her. A sweet, nice, innocent, little guy

  • Poor Elon Musk Is Denied $56 Billion Pay From Tesla
    Crooks and Liars, Tuesday - 12/03/2024 - 10:30 AM

    Elon Musk, the richest man on Earth, was denied his $56 billion windfall pay from Tesla on Monday. Tesla shareholders voted to award Musk the crazy pay, but Delaware Court of Chancery Judge McCormick denied the compensation package - for a 2nd time. Why would he even need this much money?

  • Democrats Should Do To Trump Exactly What GOPers Did To Obama
    Crooks and Liars, Tuesday - 12/03/2024 - 08:06 AM

    On January 29, 2009, after Obama took the White House and Democrats gained a 79-seat majority in the House, did Republicans crawl off to lick their wounds? Hell, no. They gathered gleefully at a Virginia resort to hammer home their new strategy: Obstruct, obstruct, obstruct! And it worked, by golly. The Republicans were pumped because they saw a path out of the political wilderness.

  • Rep. Dan Goldman On Why Joe Biden Felt Compelled To Pardon Hunter
    Crooks and Liars, Tuesday - 12/03/2024 - 07:29 AM

    Interesting discussion with Brianna Keilar and Rep. Dan Goldman yesterday about the Hunter Biden pardon and what drove it. Notice that Goldman is not cosplaying indignation about Biden going ahead with the pardon, as some shameless Democrats did. Instead, he pointed out that the nomination of Kash Patel was a red flag. "Kash Patel is a danger because he's unqualified and because he is out for revenge on behalf of Donald Trump," Goldman said. "And that is not who we should have leading what should be a nonpartisan apolitical FBI that has a ten-year term for a reason so that it is not in line with the political process.
