“I find it ironic that Marjorie Taylor Greene is in charge of running this committee. in the last congress, she literally showed a dick pic in an oversight hearing so I thought I would bring one as well. now this, of course, we know is President Elon Musk.”


break out the smelling salts and ready the fainting couch, because oh lordy, I do declare, the pearl-clutchers at CNN are feeling mighty woozy over this heinous breach of decorum.

Brianna Keilar: “do you think that calling Elon Musk a dick is effective messaging?”

Congressman Robert Garcia: “well, he is a dick. and I also think he’s harming the American public in an enormous way, and what I think it really important, and what the American public wants, is for us to bring actual weapons to this bar fight. this is a fight for democracy, for the future of this country, and it’s important to push back on the chairperson of this committee. I mean, Marjorie Taylor Greene talks about having decorum, about having bipartisanship? this is the person that lies more than anybody else in the entire Congress. and so if she’s going to make a mockery of hearings, I want to make sure that us as Democrats are bringing that same level of energy.”


Congressman Garcia is exactly right. Democrats are in an existential battle to save democracy — and it’s time they start acting like it.

but he’s also right about the Space Nazi. he’s a dick. so is Donny Convict. so is every member of Donny’s Confederacy of Sewer Clowns. they’re all a bunch of dicks, strutting about, breaking shit, and generally acting like dicks.

what’s more dickish than turning your back on your allies?

Wahahaha!

Just for the record, MTG uttering the word decorum without being vaporized by a lightening bolt tells me their gawd is a falllacy.
