Apparently, according to a site I won't link here, Nunes is quitting his day job to serve as CEO of TFG's new media undertaking. Any bets on how long TMTG stays afloat?
Actually, I hope it does, and that he enjoys it so much he stops caring about the Republican party.
It's still full of assholes, and the damage may be irreversible, but maybe if they don't have to kiss his lardy ass there might be a sliver of hope.

Nunes will likely be happy for the grifting scheme company to fail sooner than later provided he's set with a parachute ample enough to retir...wait...he'll be working for The Great Renegerator...he'll be lucky to draw a single paycheck.

Good luck with that, is all I can say. I was on the edges of that world when the Russian money started flowing in, 30-odd years ago, and decided very rapidly that I wanted no part of it. I doubt it could have been stopped then, and now it's so deeply entrenched, I think effective legislation is going to be very difficult to pass -- could be very embarrassing, personally, professionally, legally and financially for too many people too close to the Conservative Party.

Putin is a follower of the Russian fascist philosopher Ivan Ilyin, whom he rehabilitated and whose remains he brought home from exile to be reburied in Russia, and he and his ideologues actively promote Ilyin's ideology of Eurasianism.

Ilyin and his contemporary re-interpreters like Alexandr Dugin (discussed in the link above) are perfectly clear about where Russia's western border should be -- Europe's Atlantic coast. That might not be Putin's immediate goal, of course, but Putin's intentions in Ukraine (and the Baltic Republics) are as clear as, and pretty much the same as, those realized in the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact.

Some, but you are talking about people who still believe the South's gonna rise again, including the now residential antiPres.

That at least might solve some of the problems of climate change. </sarcasm>

I have no problem being in relationships with people whose political views are very different from mine -- my late partner was a right-wing Tory, at least in many respects -- but neither of us had any time for racists or fascists, which is what the current Republican Party has become.
