GOP's all-out assault on history continues with McCarthy's absurd Ukraine claim

[Jilly_in_VA]

The Republican Party is waging an all-out assault on history and memory.

While there’s justifiable worry about the GOP’s attempts to erase factual accounts of history from school textbooks, there’s a parallel effort to gaslight and mystify Americans about recent happenings, as well. The GOP’s attempt to clean its blood-stained hands after effectively backing then-President Donald Trump’s notorious pressure campaign against Ukraine in 2019 is just the latest example of this shameless revisionism.

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., appeared on "Fox News Sunday" and performed what can best be described as a stand-up routine disguised as a sympathetic, pro-Ukraine rant as the country fends off Russia’s invasion.

“This is going to get stronger and rougher, and what really needs to happen is — Ukraine is not asking for American men and women to fight; all they’re asking for is the weapons to defend themselves,” McCarthy said.

Then he hit us with the punchline: “If we would have taken those actions earlier instead of waiting till after Russia invaded, they probably never would’ve invaded, had we done that sooner.”

The claims would be laughable if they weren't made in such bad faith.

1. Kevin, what did you do to encourage those actions to be taken sooner?

Congressman, can you show us one example, in the public record and prior to February 24th, of you doing what you now claim should have been done?

Not a single example?

I see...

2. In the bizarro world of opposites, where time runs backwards...

...devolution is orthodox science, people depart before they arrive at truth, and work is never done.
Undoing however is scriptural because the Lords' creation is too faulty for faux folks.
