Shade of the Day

 

Some stinging shade was provided by Rep. Norma Torres (D-CA) in yesterday's House Rules Committee hearing to discuss derelict impersonator and Trumpist thug Steve "Loose Cannon" Bannon's criminal comtempt of Congress. Fellow Trumpist thug Rep. Matt "Teen Spirit"Gaetz (Sedtion-FL) was in the witness chair on Bannon's behalf when Torres threw some shade at him:

"It is unfortunate that we have to look at the moral character of how people deny and try to try and twist the truth around what happened. People died. This is not about someone being sexually assaulted or somebody paying to have sex with a young girl or somebody not protecting people that are under their jurisdiction. This is about our democracy. This is about future generations of Americans that deserve to have liberty and justice for all."  (our emphasis)

Well done, Congresswoman Torres. Accused sex trafficker Gaetz's profile and fundraising efforts seem to have cratered as he anticipates charges in the sex trafficking case that involves him and a Florida bro of his. He posted a $100,000 net loss for the July-September quarter, after donations from the rubes began to dry up.
