The MAGA Lunatics are at it Again in the House of Representatives

Washington Post Editorial Columnist Dana Milbank may be onto something when he referred to the current Republican Majority as the "House of Recriminations."

Except they should probably be labeled the "House of False Recriminations."

Why?

Because over the last couple of weeks, most of these MAGA-Trump enabling, White Nationalist, Big Lie promoting, Reality adverse, Personal Freedom attacking, anti-law and order, and Enemies of Democracy lunatics have been launching hearings and holding votes on measures promoting disproven conspiracy theories and falsehoods from the alt-right universe. 

The first example comes from the farcical event, masquerading as an actual hearing, hosted two weeks ago by Matt How Old is She Gaetz and Majorie Jewish Space Lasers Cause California Wild Fires Greene where Republican conspiracy enthusiasts and January 6 supporters, disguised as House Representatives, attempted to paint the insurrectionists who were the Domestic Terrorist attackers on the Nation's Capitol on January 6, 2021, as heroes and victims. 

This was the same hearing where Paul No One in My Family Will Vote for Me Gosar suggested putting a bounty on finding the undercover officers and Antifa members who he claims were the real spearheads of the attacks.

Let us be clear. The attackers on the Nation's Capitol on January 6, 2021, and their Quisling associates like Mr. Gosar are traitors, criminals, and Enemies of the People.

The other examples occurred this week when MAGA lunatics, after a failed earlier attempt, were able to secure, after threats to be primaried from the Mad King American Duce Trump, to censure California Representative Adam Schiff for his leadership and being an agent of truth during the first impeachment of Donald Trump and the earlier Mueller investigation oversight hearings. 

Readers should click on the video link below to see all the House Democrats gathered around and supporting Schiff, yelling "shame," "Adam, " and "No," at Speaker Kevin Spineless McCarthy for even allowing this farce.

That the House Republicans, led by Jim Jordan, held a hearing on the Durham Report, with Mr. Durham, under oath, acknowledging many of the Democratic claims with regard to the Russia investigation and Trump's behavior, did not phase these MAGA lunatics when they held their vote afterward. 

It is reasonable to conclude that if the roles were reversed, Mr. McCarthy would resign rather than face a censure vote for all the damage he has committed and the false statements he has made as Speaker. 

Then there is the latest competing efforts from MAGA Lunatic Lauren Guns are People To Boebert and the aforementioned Jewish Space Laser Greene to be the first to race to the finish line to get a vote on articles of impeachment on President Joe Biden. 

Apparently, Ms. Greene did not appreciate Ms. Boebert's efforts that upstaged her own and called her "a little bitch" on the House floor.

Yesterday, the MAGA Lunatics voted to refer Boebert's suggestion to Committees to conduct hearings on these articles.

Good luck with that.

If these MAGA lunatics do manage to impeach President Biden on more falsehoods and big lies, they could kiss goodbye to their House majority in the next cycle because all the 18 Republicans in districts will, if they have not already, be condemned for, along with their blind support for Donald Trump and measures to let the debt ceiling lapse and tax cuts that will fuel inflation, being too extreme to serve. 

So to all the MAGA lunatics that want to pursue this kamikaze course: Knock yourself out. See you in November 2024.
