What’s Good For The Goose …
Take a deep breath. Republicans on the House Ways and Means Committee are begging Democrats not to subpoena Trump’s tax returns even though they used raw power to go after Barack Obama.
“Transparency in our government is enormously important, but must be undertaken with appropriate care,” Reps. Kevin Brady (R-Texas) and Mike Kelly (R-Pa.) wrote in a Thursday letter to Ways and Means Committee Chairman Richard Neal (D-Mass.).
Brady says we should “come together” for a “thoughtful solution.”
There’s a hearing on Thursday and I will tell you one damn thing: Republicans better show up with more than beg and a promise to be “thoughtful.” They claim that Democrats are “weaponizing” the tax code. Oh hell yeah. Trump helped roll back the Obama restrictions against pay day lenders today and there – right there – is weaponizing usury laws.
You can breath out now.
My guess is soooooo many in the GOP are dirty. They know if Orange Imbecile is indicted he’ll roll over on EVERYONE and they’re desperate to keep their pathetic, droopy, pimply, white asses out of prison.
1I have often wondered if an entire political party, given their support, protection and enjoined corruption of the criminal grifter that occupies the WH could be found guilty of obstruction of justice, abrogation of their constitutional oath of office to uphold said document.
It would be daydreaming to sure but the justice dept. seems to be doing it in a steady piecemeal fashion currently.
2Come Together?
As long as Republicans are bringing up John Lennon songs, how about:
Imagine Trump’s 1040’s
3It’s easy if you try
It’s amazing to me that the Republican’ts believe that thoughts alone will solve a problem. Their thoughts and prayers are always going out but nothing has changed.
Come senators, congressmen
4Please heed the call
Don’t stand in the doorway
Don’t block up the hall
For he that gets hurt
Will be he who has stalled
There’s a battle outside
And it is ragin’.
It’ll soon shake your windows
And rattle your walls
For the times they are a-changin’.
Pay day lenders – it’s so hard to imagine that they get away with the same thing that we used to imprison mobsters for.
Debbo, I think you are right. Heard that McTurtle’s biggest contributors is a Russian rich mobster. Also, anyone taking NRA money was actually taking Russian money.
5@Rick–you win the prize!
6But Trump promised to release his tax returns.
He wouldn’t lie, would he?
7@slipstream, you just missed the second half of that promise: “when hell freezes over.”
8“Transparency in our government is enormously important, but must be undertaken with appropriate care,”
Not to worry, Kevin. The transparency will most definitely be done with appropriate care. Finally.
9Kevin, you twit! You just gave away how perilous your position is! Try chewing a stick of alum gum. That oughta work!
10Kevin Brady where does that name register? Benghazi emailssecret server string her up lock her up. It is your turn in the barrel, jerkoff.
