The Gang of Four: Meadows, Scavino, Bannon, and Patel
Chant overheard at alt-right rallies across the country during these troubled times, "You will not replace us!"Ghosts of the Confederacy ride the rhetoric of hate being spread by the GOP in states seeking to suppress minority votes.
It's fear and loathing in Trumpland as the former reality star and president has his followers believing ANYTHING he says.
In a recent Trump rally in Georgia the crowd gleefully ranted, "Fuck Biden! Fuck Biden! Fuck Biden." Try, for a moment, to imagine what that sea of stupidity looked like - hundreds of red baseball caps bobbing up and down joyfully.
Speaking of corrupt confidants, did you hear Trump's buddy Steve Bannon defied Congress when subpoenaed to testify before the Jan. 6 Select Committee?
The committee's response was swift as they moved forward today to hold Bannon in criminal contempt for refusing to comply with the subpoena.
I admit I'm looking forward to hearing from a parade of Trump's corrupt confidants testifying before the select committee in the coming months.
I suspect the star of the investigation is going to be Mark Meadows.
He's been recorded chastising Trump on Jan 6, then doing the complete opposite by making a pilgrimage to Mar-a Lago to kiss Trump's ass a week later. Or, was it days later?
Kash Patel who Adam Schiff described as a "demonstration of the principal in the Trump administration that the more willing you were to do anything the president wanted, no matter how unscrupulous, the higher and the faster you could rise," could give a sensational sleeper testimony.
I'm placing a side bet that Dan Scavino will be the most contentious of the reluctant confidants. He's the slimiest of the quartet.
Be ready for the long game, as the select committee continues to corner more Trump confidants, and make them testify under oath.
I'm stocking up on popcorn right now because of the supply issues we're all experiencing.
Seriously. Stocking. Up. Right. Now.
