The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

here’s some weird shit: reporters trying to get elected officials to comment on Donny’s mass-pardoning of the January 6th insurrectionists have been met with blank stares. ‘huh? something happened on January 6th?’

this inexplicable malady has even affected the lawmakers who were inside the Capitol that day — they no longer have any memory of what they experienced. Reps and Senators who cowered in fear as violent insurrectionists trashed their offices and smeared shit on the walls have apparently blanked the whole thing out of their minds — and so they’ve have had to invent their own delusional narratives of what happened.

and the oddest thing of all? this strange mass psychosis has only affected Republicans.

witness the sad case of former Minnesota Rep. Michele Bag O’Hair. the poor dear thinks Jan 6 was a prayer meeting.

Michele Bachmann: “it was like a prayer meeting on Jan. 6 in DC. people were preaching the gospel.”

yeah, no. the only people praying on Jan. 6 were elected officials reaching out to the deities of their choice, and begging to have their lives spared.

Holy Mike Johnson has also had his memory mysteriously wiped clean.

“speaker Mike Johnson is now calling January 6th a day of peaceful protests.”

Holy Mike needs to check himself into a good memory care facility, because nothing says ‘peaceful protest’ so much as using a battering ram to smash windows.

Johnson has had his brains scrambled so thoroughly that he’s going to form a committee to investigate the January 6 investigators.
