Key Points

Mick Mulvaney, President Trump’s former chief of staff, told CNBC he has resigned as special U.S. envoy to Northern Ireland. Mulvaney said he called Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Wednesday night to tell him of his decision. “I can’t do it. I can’t stay,” said Mulvaney, adding that Trump was “not the same as he was eight months ago.” He said other officials may follow suit.

Republicans are all turning into Benedict Arnolds. It shows they weren’t really with Trump at all. The swamp is going to be a cesspool.

“So the guy in all black with clench fist marixst salute standing behind the speaker podium was MAGA?”

At this point, what difference does it make?

Why aren’t you willing to go lay siege on the Capitol

you are advocating here.

When are you going to go do it?

Do you have the gear to climb the wall?

Btw, waving a Trump flag and chanting on the steps is not laying Siege. It went far beyond that by some

So when are you going to do what you are advocating

special U.S. envoy to Northern Ireland

Do you get a red stapler as soon as you take that job, or does it come on a service anniversary?

Anyone who goes from Congress to a senior executive branch post to "special envoy to Northern Ireland" is just taking a taxpayer-funded position to finance a long pre-retirement vacation.

A jackass like this would never take a position like "special envoy to Somalia."

“I can’t stay here...”

How many patriotic Americans woke up this morning mulling over the very same thought?

I think you are no better than LIN Wood because you also don’t know what the hell you are chattering like a drunken monkey about.

Do you never shut up?

How are the Quooks dealing with the reality they were fooled into believing a fairy tale?


Think, McFly, Think !!!

On Wednesday after rally, Trump told everyone in DC to go home. Isn’t he invoking the first part of the 1807 Insurrection Act where he must proclaim that the “insurgents” or “insurrectionists” (and that includes Congress, yes?) to go home?

Perhaps we will see today or tomorrow the beginning of the unleashment of fire and fury under the 1807 Insurrection Act upon the Dems and RINOs who are working to destroy the U.S. by means of a fraudulent election.

Joe Biden will never be president.

I never implied “all” of anything.

If you still think “truth” matters, you are way behind the curve.
