36. Never forget that seven Rethugs made a trip to Moscow on JULY FOURTH

Fri Feb 21, 2025, 10:38 AM

Yesterday

They called themselves a "congressional delegation.” They made a trip to Moscow July 4, 2018. Which was AFTER the Russian “annexation” (read: invasion) of Crimea.

Sen. Richard C. Shelby (R-Ala.),
Sen. Steve Daines (R-Mont.),
Sen. John Hoeven (R-N.D.),
Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.),
Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.),
Sen. Jerry Moran (R-Kan.),
Sen. John Thune (R-S.D.),
Rep. Kay Granger (R-Texas)

F**king traitors.

(P.S. Do you think John Kennedy's Russian translator had to talk like Foghorn Leghorn?)
