House and Senate Republicans were ferociously annihilated by one of their former colleagues on MSNBC on Monday.

Former Rep. David Jolly (R-FL) was interviewed by MSNBC’s Nicolle Wallace on “Deadline: White House.”

“What has happened to the Republican Party?” Wallace asked.

“These are the moments where my anger is somewhat palpable because you’ve just got to be honest,” Jolly said. “These are — in today’s Republican Party — spineless politicians rotten to the core, without virtue, without any level of human integrity, devoid of self-respect, self-reflection, without courage, and without the moral compass to recognize their own malevolence.

“And one day maybe they will have the recognition of how they failed the country and themselves in this moment, but that would be giving them credit that somewhere down deep they have the goodness to recognize how to reconcile their own failings with what is right and just in American politics and frankly what is right and wrong in the eyes of adults and children alike,” he continued.

Jolly said. “I agree they inevitably will make the case this is not impeachable. The problem is it requires every single Republican to align with Donald Trump and say that only Donald Trump speaks the truth, that Lieutenant Colonel [Alexander] Vindman — a man of honor and Purple Heart recipient — does not speak the truth. Ambassador [Michael] McKinley — somebody who’s referred to as the Dean of the foreign service corps — does not speak the truth. Ambassador [Marie] Yovanovitch — somebody who dedicated her life to promoting freedom and U.S. ideals on the world stage does not speak the truth. Only Donald Trump does.”

“And there is no greater example of selling your soul to a charlatan than what Republicans are doing right now in the House and the Senate,” he continued. “And their legacies are on the line just as much as Donald Trump’s.”

“We know the character of Donald Trump,” he noted. “We know the failings of Donald Trump, what we’re watching play out in this impeachment proceeding is the failings of a Republican Party and every single member that goes along with this.”

“Amen,” Wallace replied.

Trump at the RNC claims Democrats are the ones who want to get rid of postal workers

Published

on

On Monday, President Donald Trump made his first appearance at the Republican National Convention — and appeared onscreen at the White House with several people including a postal worker.

The president used the opportunity to push back on the recent reports of postal delays, flatly denying everything and trying to claim, with no basis or explanation, that it's Democrats who are trying to get rid of the Postal Service — even though Democrats just passed a bill to increase USPS funding.

Brad Parscale attacks Fox News for cutting out from RNC — and complains that he has to get it from CNN

Published

on

On the first night of the Republican National Convention, CNN and MSNBC dutifully carried a live stream of the proceedings, as speaker after speaker lined up to attack Democrats and praise the president.

Fox News, however, cut out from the convention early — a decision that angered the Trump campaign's former manager and current digital adviser Brad Parscale, who whined that he had to rely on CNN instead.

Can’t believe I have to watch the convention on @CNN. Unbelievable. @FoxNews
