    You know I go back and forth. Sometimes I believe American politicians are aware their political agenda is just a show in order to preserve the power of capital regardless of anything else. Then I go thinking they're gullible shitheads put into power specifically to do nothing and waste everyone's time. Usually I believe the former, because they have to be purely cynical, right? They see how the sausage is made. They have to know it's all just theatre to extract wealth and commit imperialism. The unhinged hog shit is just to placate the masses, right?

    Nope. Kevin McCarthy seems like the genuine pea brain rube type who is dipping into his own supply of chud conspiracy theories

    I've been around my parents in the last week and they watch a lot of MSNBC. With the vibe on that channel now, it really feels like they're trying to set McCarthy up as the Reasonable Republican answer to Trump for 2024, it's pretty funny
