Two years ago, the planet stood in shock as Trump attempted to initiate a violent insurrection that would prevent the election from being formally recognised.
Two years later, the planet again stood in shock as the GOQ mega maga Republicans launched a self mutilation of themselves that saw Kevin McCarthy beg his way through 15 votes to gain the Speaker role.
The violence of the Orange Lives Matter fascists vs the pure malevolence of the Freedom Caucus nihilism sums up the spite that American Politics has mutated into.
McCarthy’s win is a Pyrrhic victory in that he is now open to being challenged any time the mega maga GOQ want headlines. They will make any attempt to govern impossible and will only agree to the most unhinged madness.
Hilariously, McCarthy was the politician that Kevin Spacey followed around to get his House of Cards character Frank Underwood.
The fiasco of this Speakers vote shows how damaged the Republicans are now and it highlights how terminal the American political system has become.
With GOQ taking over the House, expect a torrent of ridiculous inquires to investigate nonsense for pure political spite.
Expect to hear a lot about the Hunter Biden Laptop story and Fauci’s connections to Covid virus funding at the Wuhan Lab, (all of which is already public knowledge), but the details of which haven’t had nearly enough coverage in the mainstream media.
Despite a far better turn out than Democrats expected at the midterms, the political landscape inside America remains dangerously feral.
While Americans were convinced to fight for Democracy over the naked unhinged fascism of Trump election deniers, the fact it got this far at all is deeply disturbing.
The damage Trump’s presidency has caused America is unprecedented and his presence remains a threat to the most powerful Democracy on the planet.
The spectre of White Christian Fascism hangs over America still.

it’s gone from ‘owning the libtards’ to ‘owning their own moderates’ can the republican party actually function anymore?
The Planet shook…
The world looks to NZ for leadership…
The world reacts to AB lase…
Just 3 examples of pure unadulterated clickbait.
Don’t stoop to copying MSM crapola Martyn
Peter Barry – Good!
Yet you spout your own crapola.
Martyn is correct in his opinion, Peter not so much.
Martyn has different views to me about lots of stuff but boy do I agree about this. For McCarthy and the Republicans to pretend their righteousness and for him to then thank Trump, who will be on trial for fraud and lying, is truly frightening. The only ray of hope is that a majority of Americans will see this corrupt BS for what it is.
