GOP Rep. Glenn Grothman Knows Who Biden Oppressing, It Is White Man Judges Who Make Sex To Women
It is probably very rude to just hurl around terms like 'white supremacist,' but hurl we must.
Glenn Grothman, he is one of those white people in Congress. He is a Republican. Those are his primary characteristics. He is from the Sheboygan area of Wisconsin, so when he says white supremacist things, we imagine he says them with cheese on his breath.
He's shown up on Wonkette throughout the years.
When he was a state senator, he pushed a bill to make sure everybody understands how much single parents contribute to child abuse. He once told Alan Colmes that he thought women who said their pregnancies were "unintended" were only saying that because they'd been trained to.
Once he became a US congressman, he raged at the Supreme Court marriage equality ruling, because wasn't the 14th Amendment passed by Christian civil war heroes, to advance the Christian lifestyle?
He was siding with Russia against Ukraine way back in 2019, when today's war was a mere twinkle in Vlad Putin's peenhole. He sides with Putin's peenhole twinkles quite a bit, actually.
He's the dumbass who said DC can't be a state, at least in part, because there's nothing to milk in DC. (Also nothing to mine, manufacture or grow. That's what makes a state, according to the rules Glenn Grothman made up that day.)
He thinks nobody cares about January 6 — the terrorist attack Donald Trump incited against America to overthrow the government and steal the 2020 election — except reporters.
Then there's his racist shit, like when he furiously opined about all these white people shoving Black Kwanzaa down his throat. In March, he was one of just 26 House Republicans who couldn't bring themselves to denounce white supremacy and say that the Great Replacement conspiracy theory — the one that inspires all the white supremacist mass shootings — is bad.
Well breaking news, but Glenn Grothman has said some more racist shit.
He got real pissy on the House floor yesterday because Joe Biden won't even nominate any white man judges who like to put their man wangers inside a woman's no-no. Why won't Biden nominate those? You know, just good old white people, the type who are men, with traditional Christian penises, who like to stick them in traditional Christian vaginas? Why does Joe Biden hate white people?
\u201cWisconsin's finest Glenn Grothman is on the House floor right now complaining that Biden isn't nominating enough straight "white guys" as judges\u201d— Aaron Rupar (@Aaron Rupar) 1685040256
Daily Beast, transcribin':
Rep. Glenn Grothman (R-WI) cried oppression on the House floor Thursday when he complained to peers that Joe Biden isn’t appointing enough straight “white guys” to be judges. In the president’s first two years, he appointed 97 federal judges. “I was expecting maybe 25 or 30 were white guys,” Grothman said. “Five of the 97 judges were white guys. Of those, two were gay. So, almost impossible for a white guy who’s not gay, apparently, to get appointed here.”
It is obviously reverse racism if Joe Biden doesn't choose at least 25 or 30 white guys out of 97 judges. Instead it was five. And two of them were gay dudes.
Can gay dudes even call themselves white?
And who's a white guy gotta blow around here to get a judgeship from Joe Biden, you know, besides a whole buncha guys?
You might remember that earlier this year, back when Tucker Carlson was gainfully employed, he went on a real bender about this. (Tucker is also a white supremacist, in case you have forgotten him.) Tucker got his information about Joe Biden's gay satanic critical race groomer crusade against white male judges from a Claremont Institute cuck.
Tucker Has Idea For Biden Judicial Picks, It Is WHAT ABOUT SOME WHITE MEN?
As the Daily Beast notes, it's been a priority for Biden to try to get some more representation from people who aren't straight white guys into the judiciary. They cite statistics from 2022 what say 78 percent of Article III federal judges are white, and 70 percent are dudes. And how many are both of those things at the same time?
This tweet has the answer to that:
\u201cCurrently sitting federal judges: 1,407\n\nWhite men: 779 (55.4%)\n\nBlack women: 63 (4.5%)\n\nStats from FJC: https://t.co/K9WLkBQYRG\u201d— Max Kennerly (@Max Kennerly) 1675743091
So what Tucker was bitching about, and what Glenn Grothman is bitching about, is that Joe Biden won't even give white straight dudes a chance to, um, continue to assert white straight dude supremacy over the judiciary.
Know what we think about that? We'll tell ya what we think about that, you want us to tell ya what we think about that? We'll tell ya what we think about that, you want us to tell ya? OK here we go, we're gonna just say it.
Hey Wisconsin dude, go fuck yourself with some cheese-shaped dicks, why dontcha? How about that, why dontcha?
Ope, we just told ya.

Eric Swalwell Cleared In Chinese Spy Probe, Bet Republicans Pretty Sorry For Constantly Lying About Him
You betcha.
When Marjorie Taylor Greene isn't getting openly jeered and mocked by her peers, she likes to make baseless, fact-free accusations during congressional hearings that Democratic Rep. Eric Swalwell got caught fucking a Chinese spy. Amid all the Fox News conspiracy theories about the time a Chinese spy named Fang Fang tried to get close to Swalwell and a number of other California politicians, there was never an actual credible allegation that Swalwell had gotten caught fucking a Chinese spy. It was just the thing Republicans were insinuating, if you caught their drift, and they hoped you did.
But Greene, because she's a human incarnation of a wet armpit fart whose parents clearly didn't raise her well, just says it out loud.
Swalwell has been an understandable target for Republicans, because he has been an outspoken participant in congressional investigations into whether Republicans' indicted, twice-impeached third-grade-level-speaking lord and savior is a literal actual traitor. It's deflection and projection. They desperately need Democrats to be compromised.
Adam Schiff did a bunch of lies or something! Hillary Clinton stole the election from herself to frame Trump for Russia, Russia, Russia! Joe Biden did THING in COUNTRY for PERSON!
Hunter Biden GOT LAID! USED PENIS!
Eric Swalwell GOT LAID! ALSO PENIS!
As we said, Republicans mostly just like to insinuate these things about Swalwell. They're just asking questions! Oh yeah, and big man House Speaker Kevin McCarthy kicked Swalwell and Schiff off the Intelligence Committee, in part citing these laughable accusations, because he is a spiteful priss. He pretended he knew something we did not. Adam Schiff reminded McCarthy that he was in that FBI briefing too, you dumbass.
But surely Greene's classless face will stop saying those things about Swalwell in congressional hearings, now that the House Ethics Committee, which is now led by Republicans, has dropped its two-year investigation into Swalwell, on account of "nothing fucking there." Right? Surely she wouldn't keep lying, like some kind of lying hunk of sun-dried dogshit?
LOL.
But anyway, that's the news.
In a letter to Swalwell dated Monday, the committee said it will take no further action in the probe that began in April 2021 into “allegations raised in the complaint that you may have violated House Rules, laws, or other standards of conduct in connection with your interactions with Ms. Christine Fang,” the suspected Chinese spy.
In his statement responding to TOTAL EXONERATION, Swalwell simply said what he's said all along, that when these suspicions about a campaign volunteer were brought to his attention 10 years ago, he did everything he could to help law enforcement, and that nobody, including Republican speakers John Boehner and Paul Ryan, had ever questioned it. (Implied: until it was politically expedient for clowns running interference for a president who actually was compromised.)
Marjorie Taylor Greene shut her fucking face now?
Her best silver-fox boy Kevin McCarthy let Swalwell back on the Intel committee now?
And we bet Sean Hannity or somebody else on Fox News will do a special hour-long program apologizing for all the hours they've spent lying about Eric Swalwell, yeah?
If those people had one ounce of integrity, they would do those things.
But they don't, so fuck it.
Fox News's headline on this story? "Ethics committee warns Swalwell as investigation into interactions with Chinese woman closes."
As we were saying about ounces of integrity and lacks thereof.

Republicans Giddy And Full Of Glee About Their Debt Ceiling 'Hostage' (America)
This close to sending Biden the US economy's severed ear in an envelope.
Every cop show from the past 30 years taught us a few things: Never negotiate with terrorists, don't give in to blackmailers because they'll only come back for more, and most women officers are models.
These first two lessons loom large during the ongoing debt ceiling negotiations. Republicans are holding the nation's economy hostage and demanding far-right policy concessions in exchange for not causing a devastating recession. They're not masking their perfidy, either.
Although originally President Joe Biden was the tough cop refusing to negotiate with hostage takers or give in to blackmail, he's changed his position recently, probably because presidents don't usually win re-election when Americans are standing in bread lines. He's willing to negotiate in good faith with Republicans who only act in bad faith. He'll at least consider a spending freeze and maybe some work requirements for deadbeat poor people.
This week, Democratic House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries said, "We're willing to discuss freezing spending at current levels. That's an inherently reasonable position many in our party might even be uncomfortable with, but President Biden recognizes we're in a divided government situation."
Of course, this MAGA-factured debt ceiling crisis is not a result of "divided government." Democrats three times raised the debt ceiling during the Trump administration without demanding tax increases, Medicare for All, or drag queens on all US currency.

House Speaker McCarthy Ready To BURN IT ALL DOWN
House Republicans Finally Deliver Debt Ceiling Ransom Note
Biden tweeted on Monday, "I just concluded a productive meeting with Speaker McCarthy about the need to prevent default and avoid a catastrophe for our economy. We reiterated once again that default is off the table and the only way to move forward is in good faith toward a bipartisan agreement."
This only normalizes Republicans' gangster tactics, and now a CNN poll shows 60 percent of Americans think raising the debt ceiling should come with spending cuts. Biden should tell the American people every day that terrorists are holding the US economy hostage and the head terrorist refuses to release the hostage. The terrorists have even moved the hostage to a perilous position on railroad tracks. They're not coming back for spending caps or work requirements. They're coming back for everything.
House Rep. Matt Gaetz told Semafor Tuesday that his extremist buddies "don’t feel like we should negotiate with our hostage,” which is a revealing statement not just for its brazen scuzziness but because ... well yeah, mostly the brazen scuzziness.
Members of the House Freedom Caucus don't even fully believe that the government will run out of money on June 1. They demand that Treasury Secretary Janet L. Yellen show "proof" of her stated drop-dead default date, perhaps a notarized documented signed by at least three men.
“I don’t believe that the first of a month is a real deadline,” Gaetz said. “But she wanders out of some backroom in the White House with a Ouija board under her arm telling us the first of the month is the number. And we’re supposed to take that as some sort of article of faith.”
Janet Yellen earned her Ph.D in economics from Yale in 1971. Her professional experience is longer than this asshole's life. She's not some Marianne Williamson woo peddler or common street preacher. Seriously, Gaetz can go to hell.
Jeffries and Minority Whip Katherine Clark said they plan to reach out to "a handful" of House Republicans about signing a discharge petition that could bypass House Republican leadership and force a debt ceiling vote. That seems highly unlikely, considering Republicans are close to steamrolling the White House completely. Today, Kevin McCarthy insultingly claimed that the spending caps and work requirements are Republicans' concessions to Democrats.
Adding further injury to this insult is that any final deal will possibly require support from as many as 100 House Democrats, who'll screw over their own constituents to avoid catastrophe while far-right Republicans sit on their hands. What do Democrats gain from this scam? According to Republican Rep. Patrick T. McHenry, it's "the debt ceiling." Rep. Garret Graves graciously agreed, "That's what they're getting."
Your money or your life is quite the Republican bargain.

And That's The Story Of How I Became The Mother Of Kaydon Boebert
Stay in school, kids.
Because it is one of the days what has occurred since December 19, 1986, there are people in America talking about how Lauren Opal Boebert might not be a particularly bright person. (That's when she was bornt.)
She was talking in a House hearing yesterday about prescription drug prices. We guess she doesn't want them lowered.
\u201cRep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO): \u201cI left a prescription at a pharmacy once. I went to get birth control \u2026 The price was very, very high ... And I said, 'It\u2019s cheaper to have a kid.' And I left it there, and now I have my third son.\u201d\u201d— The Recount (@The Recount) 1684860826
“I left a prescription at a pharmacy once. Um, I went to get, um, birth control. And, um, I was there at the counter, went to pay for it, and um, the price was very, very high. I said wow, is this a three-, six-month prescription? No ma’am, this is one month. And I said it’s cheaper to have a kid. And I left it there, and now I have my third son, Kaydon Boebert, um and so I'm actually, it actually turned out to be a really great thing!"
Um.
OK.
So, you can get birth control for free under Obamacare in many cases, but she's talking about her third child, who according to our quick research was born in 2009 in the front seat of Jayson Boebert's F250, the year before Obamacare passed. (Shit you not.) That one fact might make a person think Lauren Boebert would support lowering the price of prescription drugs, but she's a fuckin' idiot and a heartless piece of shit Republican, so maybe not.
But, we have another quibble. And granted, math is the toughest.
For the year that child was born, and for a family with an income level over about $100K per year, the average cost of raising a child from birth to 18 is about $369,000. According to the internet, at least as of 2020, Boebert's kids went to private school. So that's more.
We are just saying that if the pharmacist quoted Boebert over $369,000 for her birth control scrip, she could have checked with a different pharmacy before saying "OH FIDDLESTICKS!" and giving up on her quest.
Unless she made up this story, do you all think that could be a possibility?
Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has another quibble:
\u201cAnd then she voted against the right to contraception so she could double this problem and give it to the next person\u201d— Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez) 1684863756
So does Jezebel editor Laura Bassett, who tweeted to remind us that Boebert is "a 36-year-old grandmother who’s currently divorcing her sex pest husband, voted against the right to contraception without government interference and is trying to defund Planned Parenthood, which gives low- and no-cost birth control to the uninsured."
We guess people have a few quibbles with Boebert on this one.
In summary and in conclusion, here is America's Greatest Mathlete telling Steve Bannon that Democrats "maybe [...] just made the whole thing up" about America defaulting on its debt on June 1 if the debt ceiling isn't raised. "Produce the documents and show us the real information," said Boebert, like a person who thinks there is just a single "document" out there full of the "real information" that's being withheld about Debt Ceiling, What Is THAT?*
\u201cLauren Boebert suggested the threat of debt limit default is made up.\n\nBoebert: \u201cLet\u2019s produce the documents and show us real information, and if you can\u2019t well maybe you just made the whole thing up and we\u2019re not going to default on June 1st.\u201d\u201d— PatriotTakes \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf8 (@PatriotTakes \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf8) 1684889213
Maybe it is the same document that says if you don't pay the pharmacist $369,000 for birth control, in nine months you will give birth to Jayden Go-Gurt or whatever.
Such a document could exist, you don't know.
*Here is what the debt ceiling is. There are in fact many documents on the internet about it.
