More #Rethuglicans who cried foul on PPP loans got their own forgiveable loans, & even applied to have them forgiven!
GOP Chairman Frank Eathorne told WyoFile earlier in 2022 he regretted accepting fed agricultural subsidies totaling $109,000 for the yrs 2001-2005. #hypocrite

2/“Since then, I have learned that gov handouts are not for me,” the Wyoming GOP chair Eathorne said. “They don’t fit my political ideology. If a private business can’t remain in business on its own, it probably shouldn’t be asking for gov help.”

3/In January 2021, however, Eathorne was approved for a $20,883 PPP loan — the max amt that a sole proprietor or self-employed individual could borrow. The loan, taken out under his full name, “William Eathorne,” retained 1 job, according to the record.

2/the #gregabbottborderstunt resulted in TX losing $477M per day, & the US losing nearly $9B total due to the delays.
Abbott has also used taxpayer funds to 🚌 migrants from the border to DC — a cruel publicity stunt.

3/At least 1 🚌 reportedly dropped off its passengers in front of the bldg that houses Fox News, NBC News & C-SPAN. These nonsensical acts clearly aren't solving any border issues. And it can be argued they aren’t helpful to Abbott personally either.

🧵🧐 We seem be witnessing a Trump family member walk away with billions after selling out Yemen, Khashoggi, armaments deals, and the US to KSA -- with virtually NO questions from Congress or the mainstream media.

🔥I am old enough to remember when MAGA and Right Wing Media were erroneously blaming President Biden for empty shelves and supply chain issues… Now they are supporting and funding the anti- vax Canadian #FreedomConvoy2022 🙄
#GOPHypocrisy EVERYDAY
🔥@FoxNews is endlessly talking about how giving water or food to the truckers is illegal- but they supported making it illegal to hand out water to voters….
So is Glenn Youngkin what you get if Brett Kavanaugh had decided to run for office instead of pursue a career in the judiciary? Asking for a friend. Smarmy Frat Boy Conservatism is just not for me. #GOPHypocrisy #NotMyGOP

💰Gold, private jets and Ferraris: Arrested @GOP strategist Anton Lazzaro's high-flying lifestyle. bringmethenews.com/minnesota-news…
🔥Indicted pedophile Anton Lazzaro spent New Year's Eve 2019 in Ukraine, where he posted a video urging an investigation of Joe Biden's son Hunter in order to help Trump's 2020 campaign strategy.
📱 💻 It will be so interesting to learn what else Anton Lazzaro was doing in Ukraine when he made this video… The @fbi has ALL his devices…
So three of the most conservative anti government members of the #idleg House, Scott, Barbieri and Moon object to not getting their per diem while they are recessed? #GOPHypocrisy
And note the irony, that Rep. Scot wants taxpayers to pay her rent whole recesses because “I don't like to have to use my campaign finances just to be able to live down here” #ironyisdead #idleg #GOPHypocrisy

@RepSteveStivers 1. Did you tell @CapitolPolice that a #MetalDetector is #Unconstitutional? Why is it that #WeThePeople have had to go thru 1 when we enter a #FederalBldg for yrs? I've had to be #Screened numerous times! Why is this #Unconstitutional for #GOPMembers but not for #WeThePeople?
@RepSteveStivers @CapitolPolice 2. Talk about a #DoubleStandard! What's good for #WeThePeople is good for all #Politicians! Why is it that @GOP can't do what needs to be done for #CommonGood? #Elitism And #WearADamnMask!

@RepBoebert 1. Americans can't take a gun into a #FederalBuilding. I believe that only those who need a gun to carry out their duties are allowed to have a gun in a #FederalBuilding. I couldn’t even take a 4 inch nail scissors into my local Social Security office.

Uhhh... some questions for basically every single GOP MOC delivering the same talking points:
1. If the impeachment inquiry is being done inappropriately, why hasn't anyone cited the law or regulation that is being violated?
Uhhh... some questions for basically every single GOP MOC delivering the same talking points:
1. If the impeachment inquiry is being done inappropriately, why hasn't anyone cited the law or regulation that is being violated?
2. If we're just talking about precedent, is it weird to suddenly pick this one to be concerned with after a decade of smashing them? Should we ask Merrick Garland about it?
3. When during the preliminary investigations that led to Bill Clinton's impeachment was he given the opportunity to defend himself under due process?
