    I mean we could have used more sitting Republicans turning against MAGA, but go off queen. Thanks for vacating your seat.

      Not a fan of her at all, and her antisemitism has not abaited in the slightest but more infighting withing the oligarghic-fascist regime the better so long as we are able to rebuild after.

          She thinks Jews have a laser in space that they were using to start wildfires in California. Little different than blanket disliking religion.

              Also not antisemitism, that’s like antizionism or something. Antisemitism is a form of racism in that it’s based on a racial/cultural hatred.

                Anti-semitism is just punching down. It’s not their fault they speak to the voice in their head. Like every other religion, it’s an untreated mental illness, but Israelis have American tax payer funded universal health care. Not sure what their excuse is.

                  Excuse me but my religion is not untreated mental illness (not denying that, just it’s something else). Worshipping a giant hyperevolved crab in outer space named Russell that is coming to eat us all is not insanity, it’s a very complex and layered blasphemy.

          She has been vocal on “Jewish billionaires controlling the world” the whole George Soros type thing, she talked about Jewish space lazers, and a whole lot of other anti-semitic comments throughout the years. You don’t have to disagree with the religion to be prejudiced against it; for example I think the Torah is very problematic, same as the bible, the Quran, the Bhagavad-gita and many other religious texts, and the religious organizations they spawned, I do not find Jews, Christians, Muslims, Hindus, or other peoples who believe in their respective religions as the problem except in where their beliefs dictate their politics and are used to supress the freedoms and beliefs of others. That point of view by the overly zealous is seen as anti their religion because their religion tends to want to spread and become supreme, as well as fracture under their own weight, but that just means I don’t want for example the 10 commanents in my public schools paid for by my tax dollars. When you start say all (insert religious or ethnic group here) are something or other or that they control the economy, the media, the world, drink the blood of the innocent, or whatever or take the actions of a small minority of them and project it on the whole that is a major issue and prejudice.

      Tucker Carlson, Alex Jones, Candace Owen and others have now called for the 25th amendment too. It’s a wild day.

        As wild as it is, it’s not super surprising either. Republicans are about to get their asses handed to them in the mid-terms and Trump isn’t eligible to run in 2028. So at some point, they need to distance themselves from Trump and pretend they never liked him in the first place (see George W).

        The only thing a little surprising is it’s happening now and not in 2029 after losing the next presidential election.
