Rep. Andy Biggs serves up another nothingburger (azcentral.com)

Opinion: The congressman's recent attack on New York prosecutor Alvin Bragg is another taxpayer-funded deep-fried fantasy.

Social media is the drive-thru window for the most noxious political junk food being served in Washington, D.C., and Arizona’s own short-order cook, U.S. Rep. Andy Biggs, serves up the largest, fattiest nothingburgers on the menu.

Biggs is part of a culinary cabal of legislative hash slingers that includes fellow Republican U.S. Reps. Paul Gosar, Marjorie Taylor Greene and Lauren Boebert.

They’re franchisees in the governmental equivalent of McDonald’s, Burger King, Taco Bell, Chick-fil-A and the rest, only way less healthy.

Each works behind the right wing counter doing prep work and cooking up high fat, low nutritious dreck to feed their truth-starved constituencies.

Biggs will never defund Manhattan DAThis time around, Biggs is offering a deep-fried fantasy in which he claimed, on Twitter, that he has introduced legislation that will “hold DA Alvin Bragg accountable for failing to address lawlessness and for utilizing federal resources in the political prosecution of President Trump. I am defunding his Manhattan Office and requiring it to repay us.”

Exactly none of those things will happen.

Biggs knows this.

He is “defunding” nothing.

The legislation he introduced, even if it got through the House, would have no chance in the Senate and no chance of being signed by President Joe Biden.

He serves empty calories on your dimeAs for Bragg “failing to address lawlessness,” the latest statistics from the Census Bureau have New York with the third lowest rate of violent crime of the 10 largest U.S. cities, including Phoenix, located just to the west of Biggs’ congressional district.

Biggs spends much of his time feeding his constituents empty legislative calories, proposals that contain no essential information, nothing of value to the body politic.

While voters pick up the check.

This time around he dished up a large, overcooked patty of groundless baloney.

If the name wasn’t already taken by a different kind of fast food giant, you could imagine calling it the “whopper.”

This is from Brumar's thread. I think he forgot to post it here, for Smegma.

Jim Jordan Just Got Busted With Evidence Of His Hunter Biden Lies

Chuck Todd Hits Jim Jordan With Facts

Jim Jordan and House Judiciary Republicans got caught editing witness interviews to smear the Sec. of State and push their Hunter Biden laptop scandal.

Here is what Rep. Jordan’s House Judiciary Republicans tweeted.

House Judiciary Committee Democrats provided PoliticusUSA with the unedited testimony where Mike Morell testifies that he was never asked by now Sec. Blinken to write a letter about Hunter Biden’s laptop:



In a statement provided to PoliticusUSA, a spokesperson for the House Judiciary Democrats said:

To smear Secretary Blinken and sensationalize a three-year-old tabloid story, Jim Jordan has released cherry-picked excerpts of a transcribed interview. To be clear, no part of that interview demonstrates that Tony Blinken or any other Biden campaign official asked Mike Morell to write a letter about Hunter Biden’s laptop.

Mr. Morell is a former CIA Deputy Director and a highly decorated veteran of the intelligence community. For years, he has advised leaders of both parties—including Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, who awarded Mr. Morell a Director’s Award for distinguished service.

At no point during his interview did Mr. Morell testify that Secretary Blinken directed or asked him to write any letters. Instead, Mr. Morell testified that Mr. Blinken sought his advice, as many others have. In response to questions posed by Chairman Jordan’s own lawyers, he testified that Mr. Blinken did not “direct, suggest, or insinuate in any way” that he should write a letter about Hunter Biden’s laptop. Nor did Mr. Blinken—then a private citizen—try to get at the letter indirectly. Mr. Morell testified that Mr. Blinken did not hint that the Biden campaign “could use some help on this” or suggest that Mr. Morell should “cook up something” that the campaign should use.

Instead of focusing on issues that actually affect American families, Chairman Jordan is engaged in yet another political stunt. This time, he is using taxpayer resources to chase down the origins of a letter written by private citizens, expressing their private opinion, related to a story cooked up by Rudy Giuliani in the last few days of the Trump Administration.

Jim Jordan is trying to overcome the fact that he can’t connect the Hunter Biden laptop to President Biden and that f iles on the laptop have been altered.

The letter from 50 former national intelligence officials warning that the laptop had the hallmarks of a Russian disinformation campaign is what Jordan and the House Republicans are attempting to discredit.

Jim Jordan’s Hunter Biden investigation is failing badly, so he and his fellow House Republicans are trying to invent evidence to give them justification for investigating President Biden, but Democrats caught them in the act and provided the nation with the truth, as the GOP’s Hunter Biden investigations are going nowhere.
