Yes, Kevin McCarthy and his band of revenge-seeking crazies have followed through on threats to remove certain Democrats from important Committee seats in the U.S. House of Representatives; ie: Eric Swalwell, Adam Schiff and Ilhan Omar, here and here. And to be sure, they are not finished.

He’s short, bald, ageing not gracefully, disappears his closest friends, and, oh, by the way, starts wars killing thousands of women, children and older men while making sure more die during the freezing winter months as he destroys their civilian and energy infrastructure.

House Repubs’ “Commitment to America” – Your Eyes Ain’t Lyin’
Led by Kevin McCarthy, House Republicans on Friday were very proud to release to the world their newest and bestest plans for America’s future. They call it ‘The Preamble to the Commitment to America’; with a video and narrator presenting soul capturing scenes of everyday American life.

And, the full video was created by Serg Grbanoff – he’s a Russia-based filmmaker.
