2. Sounds like McCarthy believes the allegations

4. Huh?

If the charges are true, he is going to be arrested, tried, and, we hope, convicted. I would think that supersedes removing him from committee assignments.

5. What?!? Yeah, kinda hard to serve in congress when you're in prison.

6. McCarthy seems to believe the greatest punishment is to lose membership in the club . . .

7. oh noes, removed from committee assignments!

They going to take his secret christofascist decoder ring too? (rolls eyes)

8. Pretty thin soup. Go to jail, go directly to jail, do not pass go.

10. Wonder if he can still do the Newsmax gig from jail.
