The GOP Picks Another Leader.

The word going around is that at least 6 more defendants in the Georgia ‘stop the steal’ case have talked to prosecutors and have already flipped or are going to flip. By the time they get to the trial, there won’t be any trial because they’ll all flip.

And by the way, the fact that Rudy Giuliani says he won’t flip because he didn’t do anything wrong is probably what his lawyer told him to say while they negotiate a deal.

So, what the GOP strategy is for 2024 rests upon the idea that if they simply don’t say anything about January 6th, it may go away. And this is certainly the explanation for how and why the GOP elected one stone, hard, insurrection-denier like Mike Johnson as House Speaker yesterday.

This guy, who is someone without much of a political resume, he’s just a dipshit from a dipshit Congressional district in a dipshit Confederate state, will pretend that nothing which happened in D.C. before he was elected Speaker will be a topic of GOP conversation now that he’s holding the gavel and sitting in the Speaker’s chair.

You got a taste of this when he was asked at his initial meeting with the media how he felt about January 6th, and before he could answer, the House GOP members around him started to boo and yell at the media person to shut the fuck up.
