The part about her congressional pension doesn't surprise me one bit.

I agree, resigning because of someone you oppose, might be better for your own life and welfare, but it does nothing to stop the 🧻hole you oppose. If anything, it gives them a win, and makes them look and feel stronger... To me, the congress critters who start finally opposing THE LYIN' KING before they resign, are not profiles in courage, rather they are cowards. I have more respect for a Liz Cheney, who stand and fight, all the way to being defeated at the polls, compared to those who virtue signal thru resigning, rather than staying on and fighting, down to the last election they face..

Thanks V3, I'll try that method on my laptop. Would I be pressing Control Key and clicking the mouse at the same time for this, right? Hey, it worked. I never knew about using those two things together to get that function. The old dog actually learned a new trick, lol... When it comes to tech and computer stuff, I really do need clear, complete simple instructions, that treat me like a dim-witted six year old..... While outside of computer and tech stuff, I'm actually a fairly bright person...

I disagree. I was glad when she said it out loud, tho in retrospect, it now looks like she said it in order to pressure for the release of the files, who knows? Either way, I was hoping she would go ahead and do it on the House floor, but now it seems likely that she will not do it before she leaves, and even if she did try it, Johnson would find some way to block her from doing it. Which is what I expected would happen, after she announced that she was going to do it, that Johnson would never allow it. So it may have just been an empty threat to pressure for the files release.. We'll probably never find out the real story behind her decision..

I was really surprised to hear this news, since I figured she was angling for a presidential run later on, with her recent stands against THE LYIN' KING. Now I don't know what she's thinking. So I'm curious what the other members think.. I'm assuming she thought she would lose the primary, against a THE LYIN' KING backed challenger.. I was really hoping she would read the whole client list from the Epstein survivors, on the floor of the US House, as she said she would do, before she leaves congress. But now I really doubt she will do it before she leaves. Which is a pity, because that is the one forum where it would be immune from any lawsuits for defamation, since congress is exempted from that during floor speeches..

Wanted to let V3, as well as the other members know, that the only remaining issue I've run into with the Liberal Hearts Club profiles process, is that when I try to edit my profile, using the Actions button, I still can't get it to allow me to select multiple choices in the section with the listings of multiple choices, for things like fav music, fav type of people, etc.. Maybe it's because I'm using a laptop, instead of a smartphone, but every time I select one choice for a particular profile category, it won't let me go on and add another choice, so I end up with only one selection for each one. I don't want to add any more info to my comment section of my dating profile, which is already close to the max number of characters, but I see no other way, right now, to add these additional choices to my profile, for people who are viewing it. Anybody else having this issue? Because I have seen other dating profiles that did have multiple choices included for these multiple choice ?s. Maybe there have been some changes made to the profile software, so that if I made a new profile from scratch, the system would allow me to have those multiple choices on the ?s I mentioned?

They all need to and should, but I have zero confidence that it will ever happen, simply because they have too much money and power these days, esp. with the US govt., so they can always find ways to block and avoid any real accountability or punishment. And in their social circles, even being publicly shamed, such as full disclosure of the files, would still not make them pariahs, at least in their social circles. Only poverty would make one a pariah in those circles, sick as that sounds..

Agreed. Like I said, we will have a woman president eventually, assuming we keep having any sort of free and fair elections, which is still an if, in my mind. But even then, the first woman president will be a right wing, hawkish Republican candidate, simply because that will be the necessary pedigree to get most men, and even women, to feel safe and comfortable enough about voting for her. Because otherwise, both men and women voters are still too biased in thinking any Dem woman candidate is not tough or strong enough to handle the job.

I fully agree with the fourth option in the poll, and that's because most Americans are uncomfortable with a female president, feeling distrustful that a woman would be "tough" or "strong enough" to lead the country. So, in order for them to feel safe about choosing the first woman as president, it will be a woman from the Repub Party who is right wing and militarily hawkish, which Hillary Clinton tried to do, in building her image before running for prez, but she failed, partly because she was a Dem..

I sure as hell hope you're right about this. Even if more rats start leaving the sinking ship, I still will never trust them, support them or vote for them. They have already proven how cowardly, selfish, and immoral they are, just by having supported him so long..

Responsibility not only comes with fame, but also with wealth, or at least it used to....

Hope you're right about her seeing THE LYIN' KING as a sinking ship. Time will tell. I do think more Repubs in congress will start seeing THE LYIN' KING and loyalty to him as a liability towards them getting re-elected...

Personally, I was waiting and hoping for Zelensky to charge across the room and clock him when he and Vance were doing their ambush of him during his first WH visit, but he showed amazing restraint, only because he cared more about helping his country, than about giving THE LYIN' KING the beating he's needed and deserved his whole 🍆>🐱ing life! I would have cheered if Zelensky had done it, because he's the only person who could get away with it without being gunned down by the Secret Service..

Just watched the Stewart episode. Priceless slam on the Repub hypocrisy..

Me thinks MTG may be planning to run for prez next time, and so she's trying to position herself for a post THE LYIN' KING era, but I also used to think Liz Cheney was planning to do something similar, a few years ago. I was wrong then, and may well be wrong now, about MTG..
