GOP Proof

It’s one thing to be a deflector and play whatabout, which Republicans are doing now to take attention from Donald Trump’s many many many oh so many indictments. Did I say “many?” But, it’s another thing for your distraction to be based on lies.

When Democrats impeached Donald Trump the first time, they had a tape of him extorting the President of Ukraine for political dirt on Joe Biden in exchange for military aid that had already been granted by Congress. The second time they impeached him, it was after an insurrection attempt and his trying to overturn an election he lost, which we all witnessed in real time. Democrats had reason and proof to impeach Trump both times.

Lauren Boebert and Marjorie Taylor Greene have begun impeachment proceedings for President Biden and a few members of his cabinet. Of course, this isn’t going to go anywhere and that’s because there isn’t a reason to impeach President Biden.

A president has to have committed a crime to be impeached. The Constitution says to be impeached, the president must have committed treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors. Trump did commit crimes. President Biden has not.

On Twitter, Boebert’s list of reasons for impeachment is that Biden is “wholly unqualified for this office and has completely failed at his duty to the American people.” Even if you agree with that assessment, it’s not a reason to impeach. No president has been impeached because he wasn’t a good president, and we’ve had a lot of shitty presidents. A lot of historians believe Trump is only the fourth worst, and two of those were not impeached. The third, Andrew Johnson, was impeached for firing a member of his cabinet, which the Supreme Court later said he had the right to do. D’uh. For the record, this historian believes Donald Trump ranks first in shittiest presidents.

The irony in Boebert claiming President Biden should be impeached for failing at his duty to the American people is that Boebert is failing her duty to her constituents. At the very least, if you’re going to open impeaching proceedings, at least read the Constitution and understand what qualifies for impeachment.

Despite not having any evidence, Republicans are investigating if President Biden is a criminal. Hell, they’ve spent the past several years going after Hunter Biden, and all they have is some tax stuff and him possibly lying while buying a gun. You’d think they’d like that.

Senator Chuck Grassley and Representative James Comer are investigating a claim that President Biden took a bribe while he was vice president, and they’ve made a lot of noise about this. They’ve held press conferences about this. They have alerted the public that someone claims they have a tape of President Biden accepting a bribe from a Ukrainian. The thing is though, you would think that before they started blaring they have a tape, that they would actually have a tape.

For example, I’m not going to start rumors that there are dead hookers in the trunk of Matt Gaetz’s car unless I see some dead hookers in the trunk of Matt Gaetz’s car. Since I have not seen any dead hookers in the trunk of Matt Gaetz’s car, I’m not going to start a rumor about there being dead hookers in the trunk of Matt Gaetz’s car. So, the claim that I just did not make up, that there are dead hookers in the trunk of Matt Gaetz’s car isn’t true. Dead hookers.

There is no tape. Chuck Grassley, who started this noise, says it may not exist. Comer now says the same thing, it may not exist. Even Ron Johnson who is a lying sack of shit on his best day says it “may” not exist. What’s all this “may” shit? It doesn’t exist until it does. They shouldn’t be making any allegations until they have something. But even without any evidence, goons are going to believe them and tell lies, and Ted Rall, Steve Kelley, Dana Summers, and Rivers, the so-called “anonymous” cartoonist, are going to draw cartoons based on the lies. And the worst part is, they’ll be reprinted.

Republicans don’t mind lying or working without facts. For example, one of the sources of the polls Donald Trump brags about is catturd2. I’m not making this up.

Look at every name in my cartoon. Each and every single one of them is a liar. All of them are on record telling lies. That’s a lot of fucking names, especially to hand letter on a Saturday after I just spent two days on a train. Fuck I’m tired. But, I had to get as many of them in as I could. They’re all liars.

The claim that President Biden took a bribe is from a source who told the FBI there’s a tape by the former owner of Burisma, the Ukraine energy company which had Hunter on its board. The source also claims the executive paid millions in bribes to Hunter and Joe and has a tape to prove it, although he doesn’t have the tape and the executive of the company says he never had a discussion with Joe Biden while Hunter was on the company’s board. This is the same shit Rudy was chasing in Ukraine and came up with nothing but running hair dye and farts. It’s the same shit Trump demanded the President of Ukraine open an investigation into before he could receive military aid. Donald Trump committed corrupt actions in chasing this lie.

There are two things that really suck for Republicans here. The first is that they are liars and will make claims without proof. But what’s really shitty for them is the second thing which is Special Counsel Jack Smith only uses evidence and proof in his prosecutions.

There are empty allegations that our president, Joe Biden, is corrupt. But, we have substantial proof that Donald Trump is corrupt and a criminal.
