Molire's play, Tartuffe, pretty much sums up these Christian Charlatans, including Marco Rubio.



Tartuffe is a sanctimonious scoundrel who, professing extreme piety, is taken into the household of Orgon, a wealthy man. Under the guise of ministering to the family’s spiritual and moral needs, he almost destroys Orgon’s family. Elmire, Orgon’s wife, sees through Tartuffe’s wicked hypocrisy and exposes him.

Boy this is too easy.

I didn't even know Matt knew Ron very well, but here are all three of the sleeze-balls together last year. Maybe at a pandemic party for adolescent women.

The interview will deal with Publix contributing $100,000 to the DeSantis campaign and how his administration allowed wealthier communities access to vaccines prior to less affluent areas. Nothing is said about his involvement with Gaetz, yet another strand in his web of corruption and entitlements.

Just because Sharyn Alfonsi doesn't bring up Gaetz-gate doesn't mean people aren't already thinking it.

She's probably been forbidden from saying 'Matt Gaetz' in an interview with DeSantis.

BUT WE'RE ALREADY THINKING IT!!

And yet, I'm shocked that they're getting exposed. Mostly, so many have so much blackmail on each other that everyone stays quiet.

Maybe this is the fall of the House of Cards?

These bastards all project their own crimes, perversions, motives and treasons unto others, particularly liberals, progressives, social justice activists and, since Nixon’s 1968 Southern Strategy, Democrats.

the third implicated Republican. And this person is even closer and more important to Trump. Hopefully it's De Santis.
