The DEGOP civil war that wasn’t

By jason330 February 17, 2023

I had been expecting a headline like the one below for a long time, but the coup has come and gone. DEGOP moderates never stood a chance so they never put up a fight. It's like after Castle lost to O'Donnell, they just all said "fuck it." They're all MAGA nutbags and really aren't concerned with ever winning state wide ever again.

'Like a coup': Michigan Republicans raise alarms at militant far-right takeover of their party

Story by Tom Bogging

Moderate Republicans in Michigan are growing increasingly alarmed at the antics of far-right members of their party who are making major inroads at taking over the party using methods including armed intimidation at GOP events.

According to a report from Reuters, the extremist members of America First Republicans "now control local party leadership in more than half of Michigan's 83 counties" and that has officials alarmed as they prepare to hold internal elections this Saturday that could influence the direction of the party in the state.

Of concern among party members is that the failure of extremist candidates on the 2022 midterm ballot handed the state party its worst election results since 1984 -- and they fear a repeat in 2024.

Latest Hunter Biden OUTRAGE!! When will the corruption END??!!

By jason330 February 16, 2023

It is now impossible to see how Hunter Biden avoids doing hard time in Gitmo' over these HUGE payoffs from the Saudi Arabian crown prince Mohammed bin Salman. Wait, what..? It was Jared & Trump. Oh never mind.

Former US president Donald Trump and his former senior advisor and son-in-law Jared Kushner are still receiving financial benefits after fostering a close relationship with Saudi Arabian crown prince Mohammed bin Salman (MBS) during their time in office, the Washington Post reported this week. This murky relationship with the Saudis puts Trump’s integrity into question as the 2024 US presidential election approaches. The Saudis provided both Trump and Kushner with sizable investments after their term, during which they bolstered MBS’s grip on the country by arranging that Trump’s first presidential trip be to Saudi Arabia, meeting with him in the US, and siding with him in several controversies.
