          LOL, that’s before my time as mod. :) We might need a Megapost of “Marjorie Taylor Greene is a Dumbass” but I’m not sure a) that happens often enough or b) that we need posts on things that are just a matter of fact.

            While I would argue that it does happen often enough, I’d take it further and say that a permanent megathread dedicated to the woman would eat the more important things, since the megathread would likely need to remain in effect indefinitely.

        To be fair, if you read into it, the ones who aren’t just screeching “Hunter Biden!” like a particularly obsessed parrot are claiming that Hunter is relevant to Joe Biden because the core claim that gets repeated and distorted like the world’s stupidest game of telephone is Hunter functioning as a middle man for Joe doing things that are akin to, or in some cases directly are bribery and pay-for-access. And also Hunter using his access to Joe as a bargaining chip, which if Joe was aware of is also, umm, not a good look.

        Any lesser charges are either a way to expand access to evidence or just the only things they can find evidence to charge over. They’re also genuinely hoping that if they charge Hunter with something serious and federal that Joe will bail him out and they can pound the table over that in a cloud of hypocrisy.

        Plus, it’s all great theater to keep their people from paying too close attention to the Trump indictments.

        I don’t think you know what the word “dynasty” means.

        dynasty (noun): a line of hereditary rulers of a country

        Let’s see… Counting all the Bidens who have led this country and been involved in politics…

        Our grand total comes out to… 1. Yep, there have been so many (1) Bidens in government! They (he) just keep being involved in politics.

    Hey OP, Jimmy Dore and Bill Maher are curmudgeons who are resting on progressive laurels they no longer have a right to. Never trust what they do is in good faith anymore, they are simply ex hippies who have come full circle on their opinions that because now that they’re old, new things beyond their comprehension or talent frighten them.

    They are not lefties in much the same way China is not communist.
