In early February, after learning that the Secret Service’s text messages had been erased as part of a migration to new devices, staff at Inspector General Joseph V. Cuffari’s office planned to contact all DHS agencies offering to have data specialists help retrieve messages from their phones, according to two government whistleblowers who provided reports to Congress.

But later that month, Cuffari’s office decided it would not collect or review any agency phones,

Cuffari, a former adviser to Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey (R), has been in his post since July 2019 after being nominated by Trump.


Let me guess nothing to see here either

1st republicans tried to steal a US election

And now they are getting caught trying to cover it up. Once it failed


It’s comical the outrage spewed by Republicans over Benghazi

But this they still insist didn’t happen

Hoping after the midterms they can bury the Truth

BleachBit is mentioned at about three minutes into this video that aired live on the Fox News television station (August 25, 2016). Rep. Gowdy told Fox News:


Gowdy (R-S.C.) said the use of BleachBit, computer software whose website advertises that it can “prevent recovery” of files, is further proof that Clinton had something to hide in deleting personal emails from the private email system she used during her tenure as secretary of state.

Thanks for providing how outraged Republicans and the Benghazi committee were when things got deleted

Benghazi is trivial compared to Trumps coup attempt unless your a Republican supporter of Him

It seems you agree Trump and his supporters had something to hide

But Sunday night in America with. Gowdy a regular on Fox

You won’t hear him say. this is further proof that The secret service or homeland security had something to hide

Because Rinos don’t get paid

more republicans acting badly

Florida’s dark money playbook: How ‘ghost’ candidate scheme revealed secretive political tactics
The mailers featured a stock photo of a Black woman, promised a candidate free from the influence of special interests who would “change the politics in Tallahassee,” and emphasized her focus on social justice, climate change and campaign finance reform.

It was pure fiction.

Iannotti is a white woman who was already planning to move to Sweden. The mailers were designed by Republican strategists in Tallahassee.

The individuals are charged with the scheme to run "ghost" candidates in the state of Florida to benefit 3 Republican Senate candidates.

According to original reporting from the Orlando Sentinel, the purpose of the campaign was to use Iannoti to siphon votes away from Democrat Patricia Sigman to help State Sen. Jason Brodeur, a Republican, win the election. Brodeur won with 50% of the vote, but it is not clear that Iannoti’s candidacy helped Brodeur.

The Sentinel alleges the scheme in Seminole County is similar to one in South Florida, in which a “ghost candidate,” Alex Rodriguez, did succeed in siphoning votes away from the Democratic incumbent, Jose Rodriguez, and helped elect Republican challenger Ileana Garcia by 32 votes.

The contrast is pretty stark.

Biden and Obama killed al Qaeda’s top leadership. Trump freed 5,000 Taliban. That’s the difference.

And this weekend Trump was at Bedminster kowtowing to his Saudi benefactors and spinning 9/11 conspiracy theories, Biden was authorizing the liquidation of Bin Laden's co-plotter.

Sorta ironic, huh?

This would almost be funny if it wasn't so sad.

President Joe Biden announced that the U.S. killed top al-Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri, who served as Osama bin Laden's No. 2 in the ongoing attacks on the United States. But according to an NBC report from 2020, former President Donald Trump had an opportunity to do the same, but refused because he didn't recognize al-Zawahiri's name.

Reporting in early 2020, NBC News reported that intelligence officials briefed then-President Trump many times about the most worrisome terrorist threats, specifically mentioning al-Zawahri.

Trump would ultimately agree to take out ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi and Yemeni al Qaeda chief Qasim al-Rimi. But other of the significant names on the CIA's list were ignored.

Trump "was more interested in a young and less influential figure much farther down the list, according to two people familiar with the briefings, because he recognized the name," the report said at the time.

"He would say, 'I've never heard of any of these people. What about Hamza bin Laden?'" the former official told NBC.

A Pentagon official agreed, noting, "That was the only name he knew."

When Hungary's prime minister, Viktor Orbán, arrived in the U.S. this week, he bypassed the White House and President Biden to pay a visit to a more admiring U.S. president. He caught up with former President Donald Trump at his golf course in Bedminster, N.J.


many in the right wing of the Republican party, Orbán offers a model for electoral success.


They have a funny definition of electoral success ..

most people call it Lying with a dash of Stealing then calling it election integrity:btu:



Many Hungarian policies would rankle the American right. Abortion is legal in Hungary, to a point. The state greatly restricts private gun ownership. And the government offers health care to all.

Such distinctions make no difference to fans seeking inspiration from a strong leader


He's fighting for an old white world or old white Europe where, you know, men were men and women were women," "And there were no transgender people or gay people. Or if there were gay people they stayed at home."

Now we know the real reason Republicans love Him

Ted and Victor are a pair, it’s right out in the open what the far right (more main stream republicans now) want.

Pete F. 08-06-2022 08:38 AM

CPAC admires Orban because
1. He bent the rules, changing his constitution and altering voting laws in order to remain in power, indefinitely
2. He destroyed the independent media; nothing remains but a few websites
3. He doesn't keep his homophobia, his anti-semitism or his racism a secret

4. He moves, walks and talks like a Ruritanian dictator from a movie

They would like to do and be all of these things too

He hates Ukraine for the same reasons Putin does: because Ukrainians actively fought their own illiberal autocrats.

Plus Putin has made a large, secretive investment in nuclear power in Hungary. Corruption is the secret fuel that powers Orban's regime.

I've been saying for months The Cult's model for America is Hungary and a leader like Orban. Their policies align w/Orban's. If they succeed they will never be out of power. They've been on this path for years - think culture wars, election fraud, fake news. It won't end w/Trump.

What really I find scary many here only think my views on this topic are solely driven because they are Republicans . It’s an argument so feeble and absent of any critical thought or historical comparisons

Many Republicans Have completely abandons The example of America the shining city on upon a hill

And are trying to replace it . With white is right and Allahu Akbar

come on! nobody thinks that your opinions are merely partisan politics.

it’s just a coincidence that in your thousands of posts, you have never once agreed with the right or disagreed with the left. zero partisanship there, or when you say the gop are a bunch of white nationalists ( especially now, when the hispanic community is making a meaningful shift to the right).

I'm serious. Just because you've made 7,000 posts and every single one of them, without exception, defends the left and bashes the right, that's no evidence that you're a rabid partisan.

"And get back to me when Democrats try to overturn a national election."

I did get back to you, that's exactly what happened in 2016. But it's always OK when democrats do it! But again, just because everything is OK when the left does it, doesn't mean you're a blind partisan. No sir!

You are your own man, you can think for yourself, which is why no one has any idea how you'll come down on any issue. You're completely unpredictable.

please tell me how this is wrong, specifically…

in 2016, a small number of congressional
democrats used made up charges of cheating in some states, to challenge the outcome of Trumps win, in a desperate attempt to change the course of the election. It never had a chance, but they tried

Tell me specifically what i said, which is wrong.

WDMSO, your definition of “false equivalence” is “everything that makes me look like a hypocrite.”

Jim’s not a cult member, because a poll said…..

A Republican candidate for congress says that if he gets elected, he'll file a bill to "Remove #^&#^&#^&#^& Cheney's name from all Federal buildings" due to his criticism of Trump

But remember, they're for "Free speech" and against "Cancel culture." Oh, And they're not a cult.Not at all

wdmso 08-06-2022 06:02 PM

Seeing you don’t follow history

For an objection to be considered, it must be submitted in writing and signed by a member of both the House and Senate. Because no senators signed onto the objections made by House Democrats in 2017,

Move to 2030

According to Forbes, "Rep. Paul Gosar (R-Ariz.) and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tex.) signed an objection to Arizona's electoral votes for Biden"

Even though Republicans were able to get two objections formally considered in 2021

Yep their the same

I love how you refuse to see the before. Claim the during is the same then go back to ignore the after and the current

Not to mention false electors

Please stop cherry picking what happened in 2020 and look at the the totality of Republicans efforts to keep Trump in power . Compared to 2016

Well the Republicans have big plans
Marjorie Taylor Greene: “The old Republican Party is over. America First is now the only way and the Trump Republican Party is going to be the party that wins.”

She’s been the GOP spokesperson and de facto gopleader for some time.

At least she is laying it out plain and clear: White Supremacy & Nationalism, while using Christian language, are the fundamental ideologies of the GOP.

Jim there was no attempt .or coordinated effort by democrats to stop or stall the certification of the election or the peaceful Transition of power

The rules allow for an objection that requires 2 signatures

Republicans got 2 signatures on 2 objections thus causing a delay on the vote knowing Trumps plan and they knew about the fake electors hoping Pence would cave .

That’s the difference between 2016 and 2020

2020 was a coordinated conspiracy to overturn the national election to keep Trump in power the objections were part of the plan

2016 objectors were sore losers with no support or coordination from the sitting administration
