“…that investigated the 6-foot-8 toadstool.” Hilarious! The toadstool if you can believe it taught a course on ethical leadership at his alma matter the Collage of William & Mary after being fired by 47. Could there be a better example of how absolutely bankrupt is the Marxist/Democrat/Hate America Party and their sock puppets that are the legacy media?

sorry..can't be a "toadstool" the "96-47" was on sand "beach" no fungus there

BH's avatar

Your statement made me curious, so I had to look that up. Beach sand mycobiomes do exist, and generally harbor unpleasant fungi associated with fecal contamination. Apropos.

Wim de Vriend's avatar

Ah, but where is that fecal contamination worst? As a worthy upstream source, Washington DC comes to mind ...

Wherever comey wanders the beach, as well.

Didn’t expect you to walk on water, but thank you for piquing my curiosity and furthering my knowledge.

Some of the most beautiful shrooms emanate from cow pies. I have pics to prove it.

I’m pleased Surber is hip to Andy McCarthy. I wrote him off 20 some years ago when he justified prison for a border patrol agent who returned fire and killed a border jumper. If McCarthy’s now pro-ICE, he’s a Johnny-come-lately.

McCarthy is good friends with Comey.

Marlan Hoerer's avatar

Rinos ,democrats bureaucrats and their media spouses are all in a society of swamp creatures living in a crafted bubble imho.

Steve Boggs's avatar

Did not know that. Would like to see the evidence of it.

Joe LaGreca's avatar

Fox News legal analyst Andrew McCarthy has stated that he has known James Comey for 40 years and likes him, having worked in the same office together.

However, McCarthy emphasizes that he approaches legal matters clinically and aims to be objective.

Despite their personal history, McCarthy has publicly expressed skepticism about the indictment against Comey, arguing that the case is not valid and should be thrown out.

This suggests a professional respect and personal acquaintance, but McCarthy positions his analysis as based on legal merit rather than personal loyalty.

Wim de Vriend's avatar

A lot of judges make the same claim, while hiding their personal prejudices under their black robes.

James Mead's avatar

Anybody that writes for NR since Buckley death has been suspect for some time

Andy still yearns for cocktail party invites

Joe LaGreca's avatar

Ditto. Rush always spoke highly of McCarthy, but I noticed many instances that showed he wasn't a true conservative. I was surprised that Rush didn't see it, but he had said many times that he had many liberal friends & would not disparage them on his show.

Steve Boggs's avatar

Thx, that’s interesting.

Grumpy Oldman's avatar

Rush Limbaugh was an equal opportunity entertainer & talk show host. He let people destroy themselves with their own words.

“RandyAndy” McCarthy, “Rube”Goldberg, “Talkover” Hannity & “Softballs’ Mathew’s were conservative @ one time. Both Talkover & Softballs hosted Rush’s highly-rated show until he realized they weren’t quite as conservative as he thought them to be.

Joe LaGreca's avatar

I had started listening to Hannity before I discovered Rush around the 2000 election. Tuned in early one day & listened to Rush for the 1st time. After a while, I found it annoying to listen to Hannity. Every time he interviewed a liberal, the segment would end with "let's agree to disagree". He had the libs on a regular rotation. A conservative caller would get on the show & was excited to get on as they had been trying for some time. Meanwhile, lib callers would dial in regularly because they had the special dial-in #. Got very tiring. I have no data, but I think that most of his audience must be liberal.

Grumpy Oldman's avatar

Hannity’s main problem was that he couldn’t articulate his point, hence his ‘agree to disagree’ comment.

Another problem was that he talked over his guests, especially conservatives, after asking them a question, never letting them finish their point.

Rush gave Hannity his start, so Hannity thought he was heir apparent when Rush assumed room temperature. WRONG!!!

As you can see, there will never be another Rush Limbaugh.

John A. Barnes's avatar

Hannity also repeats himself a lot, which gets annoying. I also got tired of the "bombshells" that weren't and the teasers that didn't pan out. I started listening to Howie Car on "I Heart Radio," whom I find much better.

Marlan Hoerer's avatar

Listened to Hannity until he got so full of himself I thought he was a male Eric Swallowell.

Joe LaGreca's avatar

"Sanctimonious" comes to mind when describing Hannity.

Jeffrey Shapiro's avatar

McCarthy has been subpar on all the lawfare against Trump. In part, he believed for a long time that the FBI was actually complying with the Woods requirement to authenticate every statement to the FISA court. He was shocked when it emerged they did not. He also was really slow to get around to actually reading the Strokz-Page texts and the revelations therein.

Dutchmn007's avatar

McCarthy has been unwatchable/unbelievable for quite some time. He never misses an opportunity to make excuses for his beloved FBI. He’s simply a tool of The Establishment & does their bidding.

I’ve known people like him before; it’s all about having a badge of some sort. The Badge (in his case a law degree & employment by the FBI) gives them validation as a human being in their minds. It gives them authority & purpose. Without it they’re lost.

It’s sad really; they’re very small-minded people.

Danny Huckabee's avatar

Much of this chaos in our country could be avoided if the Congress would do their jobs and close down all these district courts who are usurping the President's Article 2 powers. There is nothing in the Constitution, Bill of Rights, Old or New Testaments, or anywhere else that says we must have 677 district courts. We could have 1000, or 1. They are all creations of the Congress's Article 1 power to establish however many courts they want. If the R's would start closing these activists courts down and force the "judges" and their staffs to seek to pursue their careers elsewhere, all these illegal, unconstitutional decisions would disappear overnight.

Suzie's avatar

💯‼️ It is beyond exasperating - even terrifying - that so much of Trump’s agenda relies on the Republican Congress to fulfill in order for real and lasting change to be accomplished.

Between many of them not even knowing the Constitution or what their job actually entails, and those who are actively trying to obstruct him, that place needs a massive clean out it. They think it’s more of a country club than a House of Laws.

The midterms are going to be a slugfest, not just beating back the Dem machine, but especially primarying so many of the feckless so-called Republicans currently residing in that sewer called the Capitol.

Lawsy0's avatar

Maybe that stupidissimo who pulled the fire alarm could do it again until his district recalls him.

But -- but -- if you did away with all those courts, how are the NGO lawyers going to make a living?

Jeremy R's avatar

They can become respectable and chase ambulances or stand on street corners offering sexual favors for money.

They could form a study group to prove polar bears are misunderstood and actually cuddly coke drinking creatures as portrayed in the Christmas commercials.

James Mazzarelli's avatar

Or they could form an unbroken chain stretching from the surface of the ocean above the Mariana Trench to the very bottom of its depths.

Jeremy R's avatar

Better yet, an unbroken chain running the length of the Marianas trench on the bottom.

What do you call ten thousand lawyers on the bottom of the ocean?

A good start.

Lawsy0's avatar

They could learn to code. <grin>

tj's avatar

If things go well the NGOs will be out of business along with the NGO lawyers. There are a LOT of NGOs supporting all the riots and unrest mostly with grants from taxpayers and Soros. All those protesters get paid which means they are supporting domestic terrorism. I just hope the infamous 'they' get off there butts and get the forensics accountants running numbers.

I had SO MUCH hope Johnson was the answer.. seems he sold out also..

SHAME

James Mazzarelli's avatar

To be fair, Mike Johnson has been dealing with the slimmest of a majority, and one chocked full of RINOs, so I would cut him some slack, as he has been relatively effective, IMO, all things considered.

steph_gray's avatar

I agree. He’s been between a rock and a hard place all year. He does what he feasibly can, which isn’t much.

OTOH Pam Bondi has the freedom to do a whole lot more than she does. *fume*

Also, one would think that communication skills are important in a national political position. Far too many (especially Republican) congressmen are either really bad at communicating (e.g., Mitch McConnell), or refuse to use their access to the national media to help Trump and expose Democrats (i.e., worthless traitors).

steph_gray's avatar

Mitch McConnell may not necessarily be bad at communication. Seems like he just doesn’t give a flip about telling us peons anything.

Danny Huckabee's avatar

The only R's that have the cajones to do anything are almost all female R's. Few of the male R's will do anything, Johnson being one of the worst.

Valoree Dowell's avatar

I’ve been reading the Constitution (1787; Cato Institute, reprint 2002) mainly to find out where “the Constitution is hanging by a thread!” As for the judiciary, that’s in Article III Section 1. It states: “The judicial power of the United States, shall be vested in one supreme Court, and in such inferior Courts as the Congress may from time to time ordain and establish.” Lowercase supreme and inferior say a lot imho.

Marlan Hoerer's avatar

As in defund the courts ?? This may be a path best not taken with an eye to the future and the nature of political swing cycles.

Joe LaGreca's avatar

It's such an easy thing for the GOP House to do, but unfortunately, they're all chickenshits.

steph_gray's avatar

And it’s our job to do everything we can to pick off the worst RINOs (Collins, Murkowki) in the midterms, plus picking up extra seats in vulnerable Dim districts.

After all, we do have the wind of a newly winged angel at our backs.

Marlan Hoerer's avatar

The msm just does not understand reality under a Patriotic president who works lawfully FOR the American citizens. PDJT crammed hard after his first term was stymied by the swamp critters and now comes the reckoning. Jerry Reed approved Dons post.

It's all about the money. Dem Pols are rich and getting richer or at least they were until the Trumpster arrived. I never realized how many elites have offspring in the deep state and NGO systems. Every time a deep stater gets fired they turn out to be son, daughter or an in law of some politician. Dem cancer runs very deep.....

Recently, I watched a YouTube of Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) rake Nancy Pelosi over hot coals. It was great. She kept playing the "Do You Know Who I Am?" card. He singed her fur a bit.

Wim de Vriend's avatar

Ever since this January I've felt that Trump's 4 years in the interim wilderness boosted his effectiveness and determination -- to an incredible degree.

Suzie's avatar

He was by no means idle during those four years. He was battle planning the restoration of the Republic upon his return.

Wim de Vriend's avatar

I don't disagree; I'm simply saying that having that opportunity to reflect and correct has been a great advantage, this time around. IFFFF he had been reelected in 2020 (let's not dwell on the validity of that election), his second term would have been a lot more like his first, which was OK but not great. I still remember Trump just standing there while those two know-it-alls, Fauci and that dreadful woman, were abusing the Covid panic to put themselves in charge of the country!

Suzie's avatar

I totally concur. That hiatus also offered another critical element: the people had to endure living under a thoroughly lawless Democrat regime that created nothing but vast damage and suffering. It woke a majority of people up enough to carry Trump decisively to victory.

Let’s pray they don’t go wobbly for the midterms.

Jerry from Chicago's avatar

Another affect of this time was all the obvious lawfare against Trump and his supporters which opened the eyes of many voters to the democrats' corruption and helped ferret out the fake MAGA supporters from his real believers. He was able to select a cabinet that is outstanding and totally behind him.

Wim de Vriend's avatar

Yes, absolutely. Theologians might compare it to the Israelites spending another 40 years in the wilderness, and emerging hardened.

Roaring Chicken's avatar

I just caught the first installment of All the President’s Men by Tucker on George Papadopiulos. I was left speechless. The amount of time, money, effort put into to ‘getting’ a low level advisor that has nothing to do with anything was mind boggling. It is a testament to Trump that he was able to accomplish what he did in the first term & that he was willing to come back for more knowing what he did.

MartyB's avatar

Andy McCarthy? Isn’t that the same Andy McCarthy who writes/used to write for National Review? I dropped them immediately after they dropped Mark Steyn over his “Cornergate” incident so many years ago. I not long after realized that most of their writers weren’t my kind of conservatives, or even sentient beings. I’ve found myself disagreeing with Mr. McCarthy for years now. As for the stinking rot that is the legal profession as it currently exists, and which is exemplified by the swamp like lower courts, I’m amazed Mr. Trump, the most dictatory dictator since, well, ever hasn’t actually told a lower court “judge” to get f****d yet and keeps working within the system. Gotta admit he’s working the system, event if he’s the worst tyrant/dictator/nazi ever. I was hoping for Pinochet Airlines. I’m still very pleased with PDJT 47.

Playswithneedles's avatar

Isn’t it amazing how both 0bama and Biden basically told the SCOTUS to get f****d on occasion and the left didn’t get their panties in a twist about it?

Shoveltusker's avatar

The 47th Amendment is kind of like a reverse of the "MacGuffin" concept that applied to Obama. For Good White People™, it never mattered what Obama tried to accomplish politically; there was never any thoughtful consideration by his devotees about whether his aims were constitutional, good for the country, affordable, fair, principled, etc. All that mattered to his adoring supporters was that he prevailed.

For Good White People™, Obama was the hero, on the hero's journey. They needed their hero to succeed, and that need outweighed all rational or moral considerations of what he was actually trying to do, or what his motives might have been.

This childish fanboy/fangirl devotion made politics deeply and fatally stupid. Politics weren't even politics anymore; it was all just pure tribalism, no thinking required.

And now, those same people oppose Trump in exactly the same thoughtless way. This is why those memes really land where, for example, Trump says you should never drink your piss, and then leftists start drinking their piss.

I shared that particular meme with a text group of old HS buddies, one of whom is a lefty. He was very offended. Lefties are not only brain-dead; they also have no sense of humor.

Jim Nelson's avatar

Thus far, the current Trump administration has been a two steps forward, one step back affair due to the corrupt judicial system. Fortunately, SCOTUS has batted away most of the phony orders of the lower courts. It does highlight, however, the continuing resistance that the Deep State is mounting against Trump and Co. No one ever said draining the Swamp would be easy. The key to keeping the pressure on is to win the mid-terms. With solid majorities in both houses, it will allow the Trump administration to continue its MAGA work without the worry of phony impeachments and other resistance tactics by the Marxist wing of the Democrat party.

TeaPartyGal's avatar

Well put--"two steps forward, one step back".

The Swamp developed over decades. It will take several Presidential terms to clean it out, but Trump has definitely got it going in the right direction, and is doing even more than we had dared dream.

Lawsy0's avatar

My dad's prophecy that one day WE would have our own Supreme Court, is no more true now than back in the 1940's when he proclaimed it.

Suzie's avatar

It is imperative that people fully grasp that indicting people like Comey is not anywhere even in the same planetary system as what he and the Democrats perpetrated against Trump and millions of patriotic citizens.

What the Democrat party has been guilty of doing over the last 20+ years was not performing according to the law, they were abusing the law, twisting and torturing the law, and breaking the law in ways the US government has never ever before in all of its history ever attempted. They were attempting to overthrow the duly elected President of the US by any means necessary. Bringing these criminals and traitors to justice is RESTORING JUSTICE and the True RULE OF LAW. It is not retribution or revenge. It is absolutely and unequivocally essential that it be done to send a message both to the perpetrators and those who ever hold a government office that it will not and cannot be tolerated in this Republic.

Jim Nelson's avatar

Now it is clear why the lawfare and assassination attempts were aimed at Trump. He is the one individual capable of defeating their agenda and turning America around. Additionally, he is the role model for the rest of the world which sorely needs a role model. (I am looking at you Western Europe)

TeaPartyGal's avatar

He USED TO BE the "one" individual capable of defeating them, but thanks to his outstanding cabinet and the close mentoring they are receiving from Trump, he has multiplied the pool of people now capable of carrying on this defeat.

Robert Brusca's avatar

Dems are discovering what it is like to have THEIR VALUES run over and neglected. this is not a statement about truth or justice, but abut reality. They have controlled everything until now and they went further and further and further to the left until there was nothing left of them ( pardon the Joke) restraint and moderation are important hallmarks of political success instead they ran a political cesspool that sucked. and now they reap the natural response to that behavior and are in denial.

Denial may be the understatement of the century. They are enraged to the point of amplifying and justifying the murder of the opposition.

What in the word “district” do activist judges misunderstand as “nationwide?” It couldn’t be clearer to me. It’s long past time —since the SCOTUS has already warned them and they ignored them—that Congress do their jobs. Unfortunately, waiting for Congress to close district courts, or impeach judges is like waiting for Godot. You play on the ballfield you’re sent to, and Trump is doing fine winning, and exposing the activist judges for who they are. Too bad the FBI couldn’t find some kiddie porn on Boasberg’s computer. But then they have 275 more just like him. I prefer to enjoy watching Dana White rip that half man from 60 minutes who dared mention toxic masculinity in a piece on UFC. Sublime!

Suzie's avatar

Yes! It is 100% within the Constitutional authority of Congress to limit or enlarge the lower court number. They could literally do that tomorrow!! The fact that they are not exercising that power speaks volumes.

“The idea that the court can veto a presidential action is as obnoxious as the idea that a president may veto a court decision.”

I disagree with this statement as a president is fully capable of exercising his powers outside the scope of his Constitutional authority and thereby can and should be constrained by the SCOTUS. Just look at what Biden got away with because Republicans never fought back.

If only we had had Republicans fighting righteously against the gazillion unconstitutional Biden administration unlawful actions, (like flying illegal immigrants into states across the country for just one example) all those 4 years, as zealously as the Dems have been unrighteously fighting every one of Trump’s lawful efforts.

We need to also be more than grateful, too, that at this critical time in our history, we have a majority Right SCOTUS, who judge according to our Constitution, and not some Lefty DEI packed court or our lives on this planet earth would be experiencing an entirely different story.
