Think about that before you go spewing "we'll get even rhetoric". The next "get even" subject could be you. Protest all you wish. They don't care. It's not about YOU; it's about them/Donald.
YES... we should vote for Dementia Joe again...2024!

Lets all do the Sado/Masochistic Route (like Hunter) and Self-Flagellate!

Great Idea~

Yes, it's coming... but not in the way many vindictive Democrats seem to think.

Instead of chasing after every little transgression (and many not so little) that huge numbers of Democrats have committed, once the voters give the House and Senate back to the Republicans, they should concentrate on displaying what the Democrats have openly done:

* Policies that have been tried endlessly and have failed every time the Dems have tried them;
* Disastrous financial programs bringing on ruinous inflation;
* Letting millions of illegal aliens into the country in an attempt to eventually change the nature of the U.S. electorate;
* Burdening U.S. businesses with huge amounts of paperwork, regulations, and restrictions;
* Bizarre attempts to cut parents out of any role in teaching their own children; etc.
.....plus so many others.

There is no shortage of genuine issues the Republicans should pursue, instead of getting into petty purse fights with people who aren't worth the time of day. And no shortage of genuine harm the Democrats have long been bringing to our country, in every phase of government imaginable.

Republican should simply continue to tell the truth about what the Democrats have been doing for years, and what they clearly intend to do in the future; while also espousing the reasons Republicans are doing things differently and what the results will be. Telling the truth about Democrats is the most effective "weapon" you can use against them, to get people to realize who the "greatest threat to Democracy" really is and get them out of power permanently.

There's indirect contempt, civil contempt and criminal contempt. Sometimes a court orders a person to do soemthing and sometimes to refrain. Contempt of Congress is no different.

But you keep thinking they all are the 'same violation'. It ain't necessarily so. And you deflect off the subject.

You know by now republicans (especially populist ones that rode in with Trump) are judged by a different set of legal standards than Dems. If you challenge the status quo and power structures they will do everything in their power to destroy you and your family financially and even legally because they are cowards, feckless and have nothing good to stand for.
