Putting aside the "belief in sky fairies" issue, It should be no surprise that the Evangelicals are right on board the fantasy world express. They've been gradually turning against everything their boy Jesus H. Christ is supposed to have represented for a very long time now, up to and including the Sermon on the Mount.

Trump is playing a dangerous game with the Evangelicals by going against Desantis's 6 week abortion ban, he's probably paid for more abortions than he's had side salads.

So, upwards of one abortion. Interesting.

Just wait until they hear about this...

"Pope Francis hints at acceptance to blessings of same-sex couples"

Most of the evangelicals don't like Catholics much anyway. Plus, he's Argentinian, which means he's Mexican.

He doesn't even have to attend court any more aswell but still turned up 🤣

It was to avoid giving a deposition in a case that he’s brought against Michael Cohen.

Trump brought the case, Cohen’s lawyers deposed Trump, Trump asked for the deposition to be delayed so he could attend this civil trial, the judge granted it so Trump couldn’t not turn up.

Kevin McCarthy's got nae hauners and is on the verge of getting huckled oot. Scenes if the end result of all this is Hakeem Jeffries ending up as Speaker.

ETA - I might even donate $5 to Matt Gaetz's campaign fund. Not enough to buy him a pint, but it'll let him get his girlfriend something from the ice cream van.

McCarthy punted; Patrick McHenry (no idea, but North Carolina, so likely a c**t) installed as temp Speaker. 

ETA - first House Speaker in US history to be ousted, so he's got that going for him, which is nice.

I was just wondering how the creepy coke-fiend ephebophile is managing to continue claiming moral superiority over anyone who isn't a sex trafficker. You'd wind your neck in a bit, wouldn't you.

Some laugh to see who claims to have had no idea he was dodgy when those woke Republican courts finally cancel him into the jail.

McHenry was McCarthy’s trusted lieutenant. Took over under the Continuity of Government Rules they passed post Sept ‘01. He was selected as Speaker pro tem earlier this year when McCarthy was elected (McCarthy had to give the Secretary of the House a secret list of replacements, McHenry was numero uno), but not revealed as such until McCarthy get tossed.

Things will stumble on for a few days/weeks and then my guess is either moderate Republicans and moderate Democrats team up to vote in Jeffries or, more likely, Mace or Joyce, with an agreement to only pursue bipartisan matters.
