It's really sad that those willing to call it like it is in the GOP will get attacked for it. Either play along with what you know is lie, and risk some long term down the road negative effect (all lies eventually catch up to people), or stand up for reality and take the hits now.

"GQP"?
A typo or something I haven't encountered yet?
A fast Google talks about "food". 8O

:heart:

I didn't watch the vids but I read the article And I've seen the 1-2 minute clip where she walks out.

She deserves to be disbarred, and then fined/sued into bankruptcy, and then go to jail for the rest of her life. Not sure if they're allowed to dish out multiple penalties like that, but she deserves them, IMO, for the damage her lies have caused thanks to the legions of "death cult," like members under trump's spell that believe this nonsense to no end.

Paul Ryan is part of the system and wants to protect the system. He's doing his job and playing the role given to him.

There's no better way for a Republican to commit career suicide than to go against the narrative put out by conservative news outlets to profit from the outrage of the gullible.

Paul Ryan is upholding the US Constitution that cites fair elections which is a part of Article 1.

I have a thought experiment for you, now that you’ve mentions the “system:”

Do you see the “system” as corrupt or functional?

Is being part of the “system” good, bad, or “ it depends?”

Is the “system” functioning in line with the constitution?

If someone believed the system is “bad,” does that include the constitution?

What happens when what you think needs to happen runs head long into the constitution?
