How did you vote?
The Republican National Committee is a clutch of craven cowards. The RNC voted Friday 02-04-22 to formally censure Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger for “actions in their positions as members of the January 6th Select Committee not befitting Republican members of Congress.”
Blaska, a dues-paying Republican of 30 years, wants to know how Wisconsin’s three RNC members voted. Party executive director Mark Jefferson responded:
“How’s everything at the Stately Manor, Dave? I believe it passed on a quick voice vote. … The censure was pushed by RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel, and the vote was overwhelming, passing without any public debate. It took all of one minute.”
Poisoning the pooch takes all of one minute. A quick voice vote — instead of a roll call — is how cowards avoid taking responsibility. The RNC called out Cheney and Kinzinger by name. Blaska calls out WI National Committeewoman Maripat Krueger, National Committeeman Tom Schreibel, and state Party Chairman Paul Farrow. How did you vote? This state GOP convention delegate demands accountability.
If the Wisconsin GOP has become the party of conspiracy, recrimination, and Trump, say so. If our RNC members bucked the insurrectionists, stand tall like Mike Pence:
“President Trump is wrong. I had no right to overturn the election. The presidency belongs to the American people, and the American people alone. Frankly, there is almost no idea more un-American than the notion that any one person could choose the American President.”
We side with real conservatives like those at National Review:
The action of the mob on January 6 was an indefensible disgrace. … It is wrong to minimize or excuse what happened that day. Republicans who did nothing to encourage the mob — and there are many such Republicans — need not wear a hair shirt over January 6, but when they choose to talk about it, they should tell the unsparing truth.
Blaska’s Bottom Line: The RNC would rather not. Leaders lead. Cowards hide behind voice votes.

My guess is most Republicans hide because they’re afraid of the mainstream media (MSM). Democrats and RINOs don’t have that problem. Their choice is to hide in the weeds or to speak out and become a target of the MSM to be vilified, scorned and ridiculed. The MSM appears to own our Congress with a monopoly on opinion and political correctness– which is not the intention of the 1st Amendment. Identifying and supporting alternative go-to conservative media not owned and controlled by MSM media moguls would be the solution. Any conservative official needs to hear almost daily that they have the support of their constituents. They’re not going to get that from the MSM.

Cowards?
I think I understand why you opposite this voice vote in particular but “cowards”, really David? I think calling them cowards is unwarranted and I completely disagree with that kind of blanket demonization of their character. They stood up as a body, voted as a body, and the voice vote represents the body; they are all part of the body of the RNC and their voice vote is not cowardice.
Personally I don’t care how any individual voted. They voted their conscious. In my opinion, it’s wrong to demand that they make their individual voice vote public and they should approach all such demands with a single response from the body, “We voted as a body with a clear voice for censure and it’s time to move on.”
As for the January 6th Committee…
Here’s the problem I have with anyone that’s on the current January 6th Committee; as far as I’m concerned they’re all political tools taking part in a witch hunt. This is another in a lineup of witch hunts since 2016. The pattern of the political left is clear; they accuse someone of some evil (the narrative) and then they go on a witch hunt to find some kind of correlation = causation consequentialism to support their narrative and they demonize anyone that opposed their witch hunt. The political left has shown it’s pattern of propaganda lies in their narratives so many times over the last 6+ years that it’s beyond me why anyone would blindly accept any narrative that the political left and their lapdog media actively push?
“All proof is evidence, all evidence isn’t proof.”
Here is the problem I have with Rep. Cheney in particular; she has not only allowed herself to become an anti-Trump and therefore anti-Republican, political tool for Democrats but she is being intentionally provocative about the whole thing. We all know that the January 6th witch hunt Committee would be taking place with or without the participation of Rep. Cheney and Rep. Kinzinger, but both Cheney and Kinzinger have become willing political pawns in the political left’s much broader anti-Trump, anti-Republican, anti-Constitutional rights, it’s all part of their ends justify the means move to drag the USA towards totalitarianism. Rep. Cheney and Rep. Kinzinger have lost sight of what’s really important and become willing pawns and tools for the political left and for that they have earned some kind of action from their political party, what level of action is up to the voting members of the RNC and they chose censure. I’m okay with this censure vote.
I have absolutely no problem with Rep. Cheney and Rep. Kinzinger voicing their opposition to Trumps actions and behaviors, I too don’t like a lot of things Trump has done and said, but they should have walked away from participating in this witch hunt committee and allowing themselves to become Democratic Party political pawns and tools. An anti-Trump witch hunt committee full of completely consumed anti-Trump haters has only one possible outcome regardless of any participation of Rep. Cheney and Rep. Kinzinger, they’re going to demonize Trump’s actions and any Republican that opposes their opinion.
The anti-Trump bias of Rep. Cheney and Rep. Kinzinger made them politically stupid and their choices have consequences, in this case censure is one of the consequences. They made their bed.
P.S. Under no conditions will I support Donald Trump as a candidate for the Republican nominee to run for President in 2024, I won’t vote for Trump or Biden in 2024, I don’t think either one of them is fit to be President of the United States or right person for the future of the United States.

And, to some extent, Lindsay Graham and Kevin McCarthy.
Republicans could have taken ownership of the process, could have cleaned out their stables like they did in Watergate. Get the whole mess behind them. But Trump himself continues to say that Mike Pence could have overturned the election. Now who’s being intentionally provocative?

Denigrate: verb, criticize unfairly.
My use of the phrase witch hunt is most certainly not criticizing “unfairly”, the Democrats have earned every bit of that witch hunt characterization. They have shown a clear pattern of witch hunt attacks since 2016 and I think I appropriately expressed that in my comment as support of my use of the phrase.
It’s fine to disagree on this but “denigrate” the committee, I don’t think that’s fair.
As for Matt Gaetz, Jim Jordan, Marjorie Taylor Green, Lindsay Graham and Kevin McCarthy they have shown themselves to be partisan hacks similarly to what the Democrats have done, so you and I are essentially in agreement about them; however, those politicians being political hacks doesn’t change a thing about Rep. Cheney and Rep. Kinzinger allowing their hate of Trump to make them politically stupid.
David wrote, “Republicans could have taken ownership of the process, could have cleaned out their stables like they did in Watergate. Get the whole mess behind them. But Trump himself continues to say that Mike Pence could have overturned the election. Now who’s being intentionally provocative?”
You’ll get absolutely no disagreement from me in that regard; but, others like Trump being intentionally provocative doesn’t change anything I wrote about Rep. Cheney. Two wrongs don’t make a right.
David wrote, “Cheney and Kinzinger…Profiles in courage.”
Sure that’s a reasonable description of their actions but that alone doesn’t mean that their actions were right or any less politically stupid or not driven by their pure hate and unbridled bias towards Trump. Courage without brains is like ethics without a soul. Some courage is just stupidity and all stupid courage takes is audacity.

I found it interesting that this morning all the news stations were still talking about January 6th of 2021 and added to that the formal censure Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger. That on Meet the Press there was a segment where they talked about the small number of black head coaches compared to white head coaches in the NFL. Good ole Chuck Todd made quite a big deal out of this. Now you might ask yourself, why am I bringing this up?
Reason is this: Of all the current and former news casters on NBC national news I could find only a few that are black. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_NBC_personalities
What you have with the Democratic party and their willing allies that the reality of the elites in the Democratic party and national press is that reality is vastly, vastly different than what they want us to see. In short, we are steadily being brainwashed.
This is why I think our Republican leaders are so gutless. They know that anything they say or do can be and is spun by the democrats and the press into something it is not. I’m not saying that this is right. Not Right by any means. But it is the way it is.
Folks, we need to get out there and use the internet to expose family members, friends, co-workers and others to news sources that are not what the main stream press want us to see and hear.
You can find links to some of them here. If you have some good links to add, please do. I love searching the web for news and opinions that are different than our “programers” would like us to believe.

Basing an entire committee (aka partisan political) investigation on nothing but accusations, correlation = causation assumptions, and consequentialism is a witch hunt, pure and simple. Starting the committee investigation was, and still is, based on pure conspiracy theory.
When your whole ideological existence, like the political left’s, surrounds these four tenants of “truth”…
…and that’s the dead end of their ability to think critically in the 21st century, an ideologically blind Democrat can rationalize anything that falls within their ends justifies the means scope of achieving their goals.

What the heck does their words have to do with January 6th?
David Blaska wrote, “The committee is getting at first-hand witnesses and documents.”
The committee is “special” and I can’t hardly wait to see how they cherry pick and spin what they get in their witch hunt. It should be “fun” watching them flail about trying to support their narrative. I’ll be so bold as to predict that they will find nothing that could be used in a court of law as actual proof to support their narrative because the individual rights enumerated in the Constitution will slam the door on them; however, if they happen upon something that is actually a smoking gun to support their narrative that Donald Trump planned an insurrection/coup (whatever they’re calling it today) then they should throw the damn book at Donald Trump. The Democrats know that there is a huge difference between prosecuting Donald Trump in a court of law or prosecuting Donald Trump in the court of public opinion and they’ve shown that they abhor the court of law where actual proof reigns supreme, and they abhor the Constitution that’s constantly stopping them by getting their way, but they do love the court of public opinion where accusations, innuendo and propaganda reign supreme.
Again…
All proof is evidence, all evidence isn’t proof; correlation ≠ causation; consequentialism is unethical; individual rights enumerated in the Constitution reign supreme.
David Blaska wrote, “At some point, the RITOs (Republicans In Trump Only) have to be weaned off the would-be Mussolini. To save our Republican party and the Republic. Are you in?”
I think the “would-be Mussolini” is going too far; Trump is no more a would-be Mussolini than Biden is a would-be Mao Zedong.
I have never supported Donald Trump, so I’m all in and been in a lot longer than a lot of people and I’ve said so numerous times including in this blog thread. What I’m not in for, and never will be in for, is the selective application of individual rights, no matter who the person is, and that includes Donald Trump.

What the hell the words of Kevin McCarthy, Ivanka Trump, Laura Ingraham, and Sean Hannity have to do with January 6th is they were urging Trump to call off the dogs, to stop what he had unleashed. He chortled as he watched the chaos on TV until it was all over, and then issued a half-hearted statement that did not condemn the insurrection and praised the insurrectionists as “special people.” If you recall, Trump dismissed McCarthy’s ire by saying the insurrectionists must have been more upset about the election than the congressman.

And other than that showing that President Trump was being and ends justifies the means unethical jerk and not doing what others thought he should do, that is not evidence or proof showing that he planned an insurrection/coup? I too think President Trump should have done something as soon as he knew what was going on. President Trump has the right to his own opinion even when others adamantly disagree with it.
David wrote, “You can believe January 6 was a case of spontaneous combustion if you want. It just happened to happen!”
Yes, with the exception of a few imbedded chaos minded instigators that are being properly prosecuted that’s exactly what I think it was and I’ll stick by that opinion until it’s actually proven otherwise. At this point in time there is nothing proven to show that President Trump was involved in any planning of an insurrection/coup.

I’ve stated these kinds of things many times on this website including over the last year, here’s just one of those comments. I haven’t hid or beat around the bush about my views towards Donald Trump or anything else, I’ve been open and honest and it should be well known around here (except for those that choose to twist my comments) that I haven’t supported Trump since early 2016 and I don’t support Trump for 2024.
