"480 Minutes" - FreeDumb Ruckus
*Whitaker is a near-perfect Don The Con minion.*
Meanwhile Representative Matt Gaetz and his merry band of boot lickers disrupted a the closed-door impeachment inquiry several of them were invited to this week. You'd think it was an obvious no-no to have cell phones at proceedings which might reveal classified information, but you'd only think that if you were unfamiliar with members of the FreeDumb Caucus involved in the ruckus like Louie Gohmert, Mo Brooks, and Gym Jordan. Several of these Misrepresentatives™ tweeted from inside the "secure" room, later denying it despite ample evidence.
As alluded to above, it turns out more than a dozen of Matt's Fake-Aggrieved Flash Mob were actually allowed to be at the inquiry, making it embarrassingly clear that this was simply a distracting spectacle at the behest of their orange puppet master. These closed-door meetings are attended by Republicans and Democrats, all participating and asking questions, so the "behind closed doors" talking point is just...wait for it...an intentional and mendacious misrepresentation of fact that will be swallowed whole and without question by the Fox News-poisoned population for whom this stunt was staged.
I'm thinking Penzey's Spices might be on to something with their campaign to hold accountable the Top 50 Funding Fox.
