Republican Rep. Pete Meijer appeared to condemn members of his own party as 'treacherous snakes' in a Memorial Day message that accused them of 'salivating for civil war.'
Meijer, a U.S. Army veteran who served in Iraq and as a conflict analyst in Afghanistan, voted to impeach President Trump after the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol and his latest broadside followed calls by some Trump supporters to secede from the United States.
'I struggle with Memorial Day,' he wrote in the first of string of tweets that criticized the 'holier than thous' deploying 'hot takes.'

Having unlimited financing of your campaign entails amazing results, including the respect and admiration of your friendly, neighborhood STATE REPUBLICAN ESTABLISHMENT.

“Meijer is from the west side of the state which is staunchly conservative. Michigan can do better and I hope they do so in the next election.”
I hope so too but the voters in Michigan’s 3rd district aren’t doing their due diligence. Replacing Justin Amash with Pete Meijer wasn’t much of an improvement.

Rep. Peter Meijer is no more a Republican than AOC. That snake snuck in by running in a district only a Repub can win, but he is just as RAT as Amash was.

He is a member of the Meijer family, the owners of the Meijer superstore chain. Meijer was such a clown that he was one of ten Repubics who voted to impeach Donald Trump during Pelosi's second phony impeachment.

Well I tell ya what, Pilgrim. If it’s gonna take Civil War to knock democrats and rinos back on their heels far enough until they understand we’re a Constitutional Republic and not a commie socialist Banana Republic then by God bring on the cannons because we’re ready to fight.

Meijer comes from western Michigan, the area Gerald Ford represented for many years. The area has a strong Dutch heritage, and is home to several conservative Calvinist denominations. Like many historically Republican areas, there is a tendency to defer to the GOP establishment, e.g. Ford, a moderate Republican. However, I suspect that since the Democrats have taken ownership of the unpopular COVID lockdowns as well as sexual perversity and uncontrolled chaos in Chicago and elsewhere, the western Michigan electorate will defeat Meijer in the primary. The Dutch are akin to the Saxon of Kipling's poem, slow to anger but fierce when aroused.

America is being Gaslighted by every Media outlet and just about every elected official in Washington. This was nothing more than what liberals would have called a “sit in”.
Other than the murder of one Trump supporter by Capitol police, this was the biggest nothing burger in the history of the world.
But we are being told that this was the most violent insurrection in the history of America.
