The Absurd GOP

No it isn't.

I don't know if you know the meaning of red herring.

Take your best guess.

House Intelligence Chair Mike Turner (R-Ohio) on Sunday stressed the expansive reach of Russian propaganda and said it has even presented itself on the floor of the U.S. Congress.

In an interview on CNN’s “State of the Union” with Jake Tapper, Turner said he agreed with Rep. Michael McCaul (R-Texas), chair of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, who singled out conservative news outlets and said, “Russian propaganda has made its way into the United States, unfortunately, and it’s infected a good chunk of my party’s base.”

“Oh, it’s absolutely true,” Turner told Tapper about McCaul’s remarks. “We see directly coming from Russia attempts to mask communications that are anti-Ukraine and pro-Russia messages, some of which we even hear being uttered on the House floor.”

“I mean, there are members of Congress today, who still incorrectly say that this conflict between Russia and Ukraine is over NATO which of course it is not,” Turner said. “Vladimir Putin having made it very clear, both publicly and to his own population, that his view is that this is a conflict of a much broader claim of Russia, to Eastern Europe, and including claiming all of Ukraine territory as Russia’s.”

Turner said the propaganda has made it increasingly more difficult to pass Ukraine aid and to present a clear picture of a battle between democracy and authoritarianism.

Useful idiots or willing accomplices? I wonder how many are getting Russian money one way or the other.

Lara Trump's RNC sends out robocalls pushing lies about 'massive fraud' in 2020

The new RNC, led by new chair Michael Whatley and new co-chair Lara Trump, is pushing the unsubstantiated theories that the last election was rigged in order to mobilize the electorate come November 5.

The outlet reported that the anti-robocall application Nomorobo caught hold of it and estimated 145,000 calls featuring the recorded fraud message were sent out between April 1-7.

The fact that the RNC is propping up debunked lies about the 2020 election is a marked shift from how the committee treated such claims under former chairwoman Ronna McDaniel.

Lara Trump has a long history of echoing his election fraud claims, according to a CNN KFile analysis of her past statements as a commentator and surrogate for the former president.

Do the republicans tell the truth about anything, ever?

[The Grand Nudger]

Absolutely, at big money donor events where it matters.

Here's some truth (overdubbed is one way to get it). Hardened Criminals

95% of conservatism these days is just making up a scenario in your own head and then getting really mad about it.
