Rep. Madison Cawthorn (R-NC) told Just the News that he wants to “prosecute” Dr. Anthony Fauci should Republicans win control of the House in 2022.
Said Cawthorne: “I’ll tell you when we take the majority back in 2022, I’ll make sure consequences are doled out.”
He added: “We want to prosecute this guy to the full ability of the law. And I’ll tell you, to lie to the American people just to get your name in the news, just to get your face on the cover of books, just to get fame and fortune. I’ll tell you, Dr. Anthony Fauci does not deserve either fame or fortune.”

But the politics of the vaccinated vs the unvaccinated is getting interesting WITHIN the Grand ole’ Party…..
GOP Governor Says ‘Blame the Unvaccinated’
Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey (R) called out “the unvaccinated folks” for the rise in Covid-19 cases in her state, a remarkable plea at a time when many GOP leaders are refusing to urge people to get vaccinated even as Covid-19 cases surge in many parts of the country, CNN reports.
Said Ivey: “Folks are supposed to have common sense. But it’s time to start blaming the unvaccinated folks, not the regular folks. It’s the unvaccinated folks that are letting us down.”

The got to Hannity….,,
Hannity Walks Back Praise of Vaccines
Sean Hannity backed away from his seeming embrace of vaccines earlier this week: “I never told anyone to get a vaccine. I have been very clear. I am simply not qualified.”
He added: “I am not a medical doctor. I know nothing about your medical history or your current medical condition. I think it’s inappropriate for me to do so. Instead, for over a year now I have been warning my viewers, you make my career possible.”
Politicalwire….

So do we have to pick which one is stupider? Hannity or Madison Cawthorne?
Democratic Socialist Dave says
Well, technically speaking, Sean Hannity is not a Stupid Republican Politician, just a Stupid Republican.
So the award might go to Rep. Cawthorn by default.
My Name Is Jack says
Hannity isn’t dumb.
He’s a Right Wing media whore.
His job is to entertain his audience of Right Wing nutjobs..
Here we see the whore getting too far away from his audience whose hatred of “them libruls” is so great that they are willing to put their health of themselves and their loved ones on the line to show “them libruls” that they ain’t gonna do what they want!
So what does the whore do?He walks it back.No surprise but very calculated,not stupid.
As to Cawthorn?Hes just some little Right wing punk.Hes a liar , a cheat and a would be thief who shows his stupidity ever time he opens his mouth.

Looney Tunes’ Grown-up Words of Wisdom for Young Master Cawthorn:
I haven’t seen a Bugs Bunny cartoon in decades (relying on just my memory for a lot of contemporary references to the characters), so rather than watch some secondary Olympic sports (e.g. USA beating France in 3×3 half-court basketball) this morning I did exploit an opportunity to see some Looney Tunes cartoons on MeTV (check your local listings).
The reason I mention this here is that the Road Runner cartoon has the following plot and synopsis (link to 7-minute video below; the relevant sketch is in the first minute):
Chariots of Fur
At the beginning, we see the Road Runner, known as Boulevardius Burnupius, giving Wile E. a “come-on” to chase him, and the camera moves to Wile and freezes to show he is Dogius Ignoramii for this cartoon. The chase continues until the coyote stops to read a sign in the road: “WARNING: The Surgeon General has determined that chasing Road Runners may be hazardous to your health.” He dismisses this sign as cheesy and laughs at it, before the Road Runner pulls up behind him and beeps the coyote into another headache. Within the outcropping, Wile recovers and sees another sign posted at the very end of the outcropping: “It’s not cool to laugh at the Surgeon General.”
