Paul Ingrassia, Trump’s nominee to oversee whistleblower protections
Friends,
When it comes to becoming part of the Trump regime, there’s been only one litmus test, at least until now: Total loyalty to Trump. Pass that test and nothing else matters.
But Senate Republicans have now set a limit to how low Trump loyalists can go if they want to be confirmed.
At least five Senate Republicans just opposed the nomination of Paul Ingrassia to lead the Office of Special Counsel — enough to block his confirmation.
Ingrassia was among Trump Republican operatives who have been exposed exchanging racist, sexist, Nazi-loving text messages — calling Black people “monkeys” and “watermelon people,” talking about raping their enemies and driving them to suicide, lauding Republicans who they believe support slavery, imagining putting political opponents into gas chambers and subjecting them to “the greatest physiological torture methods known to man,” calling rape “epic,” and writing “I love Hitler.”
JD Vance brushed off the messages: “Kids do stupid things, especially young boys. They tell edgy, offensive jokes. That’s what kids do. And I really don’t want us to grow up in a country where a kid telling a stupid joke – telling a very offensive, stupid joke – is cause to ruin their lives.”
Jokes? Not funny.
Kids? Members of the group range from 18 to 40. One is a state legislator. Others are in their 30s and well-established in Republican politics.
Ingrassia, age 30, is now the Department of Homeland Security’s liaison to Vance’s and Trump’s White House.
In his text messages, Ingrassia described himself as having “a Nazi streak” and suggests Martin Luther King Jr Day should be “tossed into the seventh circle of hell.”
But because of his utter loyalty to Trump, Trump nominated Ingrassia to lead the Office of Special Counsel, which investigates whistleblower complaints and allegations of political interference in the civil service.
Vance has responded quite differently to people making offensive comments about pro-Trump conservatives such as the late Charlie Kirk.
“Call them out,” Vance angrily demanded about anyone saying anything negative about Kirk, “and hell, call their employer.”
Many who have expressed critical views about Kirk have now lost their jobs.
At least 21 teachers in school districts across the country have been fired, put on administrative leave or placed under investigation by their employers for comments allegedly critical of Kirk. Firefighters, members of the military, a sports reporter, an employee of the Carolina Panthers and a city council official in Indiana have faced similar treatment or calls to resign.
The State Department has even revoked visas of foreign nationals who have made slightly negative comments about Kirk on social media, including banal statements such as “Kirk won’t be remembered as a hero.”
Senate Republicans apparently don’t share Vance’s hypocritical tolerance for racist, sexist, and Nazi-loving comments by people Trump wants to confirm for positions in his regime.
Unlike Vance and the GOP operatives who feel that their loyalty to Trump allows them to promote the sickest and most hateful views imaginable, Senate Republicans have a bottom below which they won’t sink.
I don't know how there can even be a bottom to which they won't stoop lower. They made a hero and martyr out of Kirk who also said MLK was a terrible person among other racist and sexist remarks. Bottom?? I don't think we've seen it yet. It gives them joy to reach new lows, because they think they are owning the libs. Hatred is what they cherish... as they claim they are acting in the name of Jesus.
Just when we think MAGA bottoms out, they shock us again.
The felon made his damage and destruction visible to even the most retarded of retarded MAGA. The East Wing of the White House is gone. So much for a building on the National Registry of Historic Places, where any alteration, even the most minor interior changes must be approved to preserve its history.
We joke about animals on brink of extinction, where future generations will only know them from pictures in books. So it is with the White House.
Yet MAGA are happy about this. They say the White House needed a ballroom and convention center. They call the move genius and brilliant.
We see firsthand how little history means to any of these people. They don't care about what made America great.
Think about this. The GOP is in no hurry to fund and reopen the government. Led by Mike Johnson, that erased one of the branches of government and power designed to check a rigue president. The judicial branch is corrupted as evidenced by the two felon judges in the Nith Circuit who greenlt the felon's power to send miitary to occupy US cities.
Almost in the same breath, he said Portland is burning. Is on fire. Could there be a more blatant bald faced lie? And MAGA believes him!
He said he has the power to pardon and communte any sentence he wants, after questioning about George Santos. He said he can pardon or commute the sentence of Ghislane Maxwell any time he wants.
May the ghosts of every child sexually trafficked, assaulted, abused and molested scream in their ears for the rest of eternity. Ears of the felon and every MAGA who enabled his wave of crime to go unchecked and unpunished. Let the screams be loudest in the ears of the pious religious MAGA, and especially when they're in church, listening to the preacher condemn the sexual sin encouraged by the Democratis party with all their inclusion and DEI.You can look away from a painting, but you can't listen away from a symphony
