Washington ComPost ^ | August 4 2024 | Laura Vozzella

RICHMOND — Former congressman Denver Riggleman, a Virginia Republican who ran twice with Donald Trump’s backing but broke with him over the Jan. 6 insurrection, endorsed Vice President Harris for the White House on Sunday.
“I was heartbroken and horrified to see how close we came to losing our democracy on January 6, because of one man — Donald Trump,” Riggleman said in a statement released by Harris’s campaign. “I’ve seen with my own eyes how Trump’s thirst for power, revenge, and retribution is his real motivation, and that’s why I cannot stand by while he tries to destroy our country.”

Photo of riggleman says he’s ex-AirForce intel, and owns a distillery in VA==and his photo looks like he drinks a lot of his own product-bloodshot eyes porcine neck fat. A slob.

The comments to the wapo article are beyond any belief— advocating for Larry Hogan to come out for Harris and Liz Cheney to get a cabinet position for coming for Harris, encouraging her to do so as well. The entire piece is a puff piece to the wapo released by the Harris Campaign.

Truly out to lunch lunacy by a paper mostly read by gubmint employees and beltway bandits, owned by the pervo himself- Mr. Amazon Bezos— who got 600 mill in crowd server management contract fronted to him so he would BUY the nearly bankrupt Graham family fishrag. And it is still failing. WaPo-— No— Mo’!!

You idea would work if Democrat voters were rational. They are not. They vote for Democrat policies that will destroy this country. Some of them realize this and approve of it because they feel that they are held back and don’t have the place in life that they feel they deserve because of the US culture, economy, capitalism, etc. they of course are life’s natural born losers. They will be at the bottom of the heap under any government because they are stupid, lazy, and have a bone deep unjustified sense of entitlement. So when Democrat politicians pander to their desires they vote Democrat. You can’t argue with or present a rational fact based discussion to them because they don’t accept facts. To slightly paraphrase Terry Goodkind “People are stupid. They can be made to believe any lie as long as they want it to be true or are afraid it is true.”

Should say- Bezos was fronted the money 600 mill to buy WaPo— by.. incredibly the SEE Eye Ehhhh. How could that ever have been legal— to buy a private owned newspaper to become a govt. front propaganda sheet (like in some foreign country where they have done this before- hint).

Here’s a quote from Rigglemans leaving the House swan song- after one term:.....”to fact check diligently”, he pleaded, asking his fellow Americans “to recognize that many bad actors who spread spurious and fantastical conspiracy theories under banners like QAnon, Kraken, ‘Stop the Steal, ‘Scamdemic’ and many other emotive terms and coded language are not disseminating information rooted in knowledge but with questionable motives and greed. They are rooted in misunderstanding, or fraud or in some cases, ignorance.” He told “all those on the end of the disinformation fire hose” that “unbiased, fact-based information sustains our republic,” adding that “disinformation hinders our free exchange of ideas and creates super spreader digital viruses that create a fever of nonsense.” He asked his audience to remember that “people are more important than party” and that “pandering is a political sickness.

PANDERING is a political sickness- so riggleman come out to support PANDERING to blacks as if she is one— ka-MA-la??? This guy is pretty much nuts— starting as an avionics tech in the airforce and working his way to AF intel- to the NSA!!! Bells and whistles warning, somebody’s tool.
His distillery “Silverback” craft distillery is also— so to say, fecal quality (subsidized by VA state- political as hell). He’s been sucking money out of the People for decades. So now he wants a gig with ka-ma-la to suck... well- whatever.

Notice that the GOP politicians who bowed down to St George Floyd and refused to condemn the 2020 riots and destruction, are the ones who speak loudest when condemning Trump and his supporters for “insurrection”.

It’s obvious they watch only mainstream media sources and look no deeper than that for their information.

The only conclusion one can reach is that they are paid off or blackmailed or else were never conservative in the first place.

VA 5th Congressional District (includes Charlottesville and Lynchburg down to NC border). One term looney. His bio leads groaningly and grasping the ladder from avionics tech in AR all the way to .... the No Such Agency? Huh.

born in Manassas. 1970.

One has to wonder if Riggleman was one of the “persons familiar with Trump’s thinking” who was always leaking negative or false information to NYTs, WaPo, etc.

Riggleman was either bribed/extorted to turn on Trump or else he was never a conservative in the first place. It seems he gets his information from CNN and the usual media suspects and never looks deeper than the mainstream media for his information on the issues and especially January 6, 2021.

This clown got a minority owned business grant (for his WIFE and daughters) to set up a craft whiskey/gin distillery in Afton, VA. Silverbacks are gorillas— maybe VA has gorillas instead of Bigfoot. Cray -cray is what he sounds like- and an operative still. It has been remarked also- that he wormed his way onto the J6 committee after his one term in Congress— by getting a “staffer” job on the committee to continue his utter bullcrap campaign against Trump. Suggest bug spray- so as to squash the sasquatch porn lover.

The swill they make won an award in NOLA- the drunken town of demonrat machine politics— so it fits with ka-ma-la like a glove.

They do stand out, don't they?

Seeing his leftist leanings, he's probably a "greener", too.   Maybe he's trying to make his teeth green.

He should probably consider using some of this toothpaste...

Another rat-shit rino exposes his ass for all the world to see his tiny winky.

They just can’t help themselves. Kemp, Raffenhotdog, Rudeney, etc. etc. All are trash humans lacking honor or integrity. Not a single molecule of it in their entire bodies.
