Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | After RedState's Jennifer Van Laar Exposes Absurd Spending Habits at the RNC, Rona McDaniel ResignsJennifer Van Laar dropped a big exposee about terrible spending priorities at the RNC on January 31st. Charlie Kirk summarized what Jen Van Laar found when she compared the RNC's spending to the DNC's. I'm bolding some of the items with the greatest differences. Charlie KirkMy old friend Mike Flynn (not the general) wanted to write an entire book about the GOP's grifter consultant class. Where are they buying these "office supplies" from? Colombian coke farms? This is all horrible, horrible! Trump sat down with McDaniel to discuss her leadership: Following RedState's reporting on questionable spending at the Republican National Committee between October 2022 and November 2023, and following interviews in which he seemed to indicate that a change is coming to the RNC, Donald Trump reportedly sat down with RNC chair Ronna McDaniel at Mar-a-Lago for more than two hours Monday to discuss the status of the party.She reported that Ronna McDaniel's chief of staff was resigning: The morning after Republican National Committee chair Ronna McDaniel met with Donald Trump for more than two hours about the status and future of the RNC, McDaniel's chief of staff announced that he will be leaving the RNC at the end of February.It's amazing how these guys can afford to neglect their families until they're caught in a controversy, and then realize they need to spend time with the wife and kids. But I guess that resignation wasn't enough. Van Laar reports that McDaniel is also resigning: Embattled Republican National Committee chairwoman Ronna McDaniel plans to resign after the South Carolina primary, the New York Times reported Tuesday evening.I never cared either way about Ronna McDaniel. I mean, yes, she's incompetent, stupid, and a liberal, but I've come to expect that from the GOP brand. Still, it's good she's out. Maybe the GOP will finally embrace accountability instead of just constantly grifting from conservative voters. LOLOLOLOLOL I amuse myself sometimes.The chairwoman of the Republican National Committee, Ronna McDaniel, has told former President Donald J. Trump she is planning to step down shortly after the South Carolina primary on Feb. 24, according to two people familiar with the plans. Comments(Jump to bottom of comments)1

Trump's big weakness is that he's loyal to people who blow smoke up his ass in person, even if they're demonstrably bad for him elsewhere. Very transactional, which makes sense in business to an extent but isn't a great idea in politics. It's also why the Democrats are the stupidiest idiots on the planet. All they had to do was book a White House meeting and tell him how big his dick was and they could pass whatever they wanted. Posted by: Ian S. at February 07, 2024 12:33 PM (2ocoG) 101

Why is anyone surprised at this? I'm not. I've always known that the RNC and DNC have different missions and assumed their spending habits would reflect that.
The DNC is an actual political action committee that plays hardball -- and often Calvinball -- to get Democraps elected. I hate and despise and loathe the DNC with the heat of Poonhammer Powerthrust power-thrusting into Fani's bubbling cauldron. But the DNC is effective. The RNC is . . . a money-laundering RICO grifting scheme of worthless cocksuckers and fucktards existing to fleece donors and enrich its members and their families. The RNC can suck my dick.

$70k on flowers doesn't actually sound unreasonable if it's an election year. Lots of venues to decorate, lots of little gifts and corruption, etc. You could probably burn through that much on floral arrangements for just a few huge events and fundraising dinners.

Seeing them do that here all I can say is sorry gays, the left has a new group of cool kids. Posted by: 18-1 at February 07, 2024 12:42 PM (ibTVg) 184

At any point the House, or of course the House and the Senate, can throw down the gauntlet over the border. Pick some cabinet department you don't care about like say HUD. Don't fund it. Send the budget for everything else to Biden. Let Biden know you'll start working on the same HUD budget as last year WHEN ten million illegals are sent home.

As a Person of Pallor, for me to acknowledge or celebrate anything having to do with Black History Month would be a colonialist imposition of my oppressive whiteness which would only serve to reinforce and exacerbate the historic oppressions suffered by Persons of Color.

Eight minutes later Epstein sent a follow-up tweet giving the all-clear: “Clerk has returned with printer ink!” Epstein’s tweet set off immediate alarm bells in Wisconsin and Washington, D.C. ... the long and involved explanation is a great example of a feedback loop with TOO high of a gain.

RNC Chair McDaniel has offered to step down following South Carolina primary. I think she's had enough. They will likely pick a strong Trumpster as a replacement - and it will make the Republican party look incredibly awful to moderate/independent voters.
Offered resignation, or was THREATENED? Inquiring minds would like to know. Ol Beezelbub (their Antichrist) strongly suggested (i.e. DEMANDED) that she step down days ago. And since few in the party have any SPINE she quickly obliged. It might be House Speaker 2.0. Anyone qualified for the job knows not to take it. Some Trump bootlicker will get the job. The wheels will come off immediately...if they’re lucky, maybe they'll last til Election Day. After those losses 🤞the circular firing squad will go into full effect. If party leaders had more sense and/spine they would have booted Trump when they had the chance. There would have been stamping of feet and crying, but ripping the bandaid off quickly might have spared them some election losses. Fortunately for us, sense and vertebrae are both in low supply in conservative circles.

McConnell's been a destructive force at the top of the GOP since he took control of the caucus almost fifteen years ago.

It might be House Speaker 2.0. Anyone qualified for the job knows not to take it. Some Trump bootlicker will get the job. The wheels will come off immediately...if they’re lucky, maybe they'll last til Election Day. After those losses 🤞the circular firing squad will go into full effect.
If party leaders had more sense and/spine they would have booted Trump when they had the chance. There would have been stamping of feet and crying, but ripping the bandaid off quickly might have spared them some election losses. Fortunately for us, sense and vertebrae are both in low supply in conservative circles.

Posted by: Axeman at February 07, 2024 12:55 PM (krQz2) ++++ Shocking absence of mental calculation technique. Even if you're bad at math, there are two obvious ways to solve this quickly that anyone who is not a total innumerate can do: - You probably know 15*2 is 30, and 30*2 is easy. Break it into two pieces and find the solution almost instantly. - You know that 5*2 is 10, and you know therefore that every two fifteens are three tens, and you know therefore that four fifteens are six tens, that six tens are 60. This is slower and more convoluted, but even easier. The answer will still be almost instant. These are people who were apparently never taught *any* mental calculation strategies or the properties of arithmetic. This is indeed shocking, and a damnation of dominant teaching philosophy and practices. Posted by: Joe Mannix (Not a cop!) at February 07, 2024 01:04 PM (yjAVs) 366

In defense of Taylor Swift: she managed to make her money without giant tax subsidies. She's managed to keep her money, despite the fact she's, at best, of middling talent.
I also suspect if it's true she's related to the Swift meat packing company family, she shills for democrats at the behest of her family, because they know they're one tax audit or government inspector from being out of business. And I'll bet you there's not one large business out there that doesn't know the audit and inspection weapon is way more likely to be wielded by a Democrat administration than a republican administration.

The list just goes on and on of important roles Trump fucked up with. Posted by: Blago --------- Go back in time and you will find most people favoring Pence back in the day. Reince Priebus was the previous RNC chair that actually worked with the nominee. Chris Wray came from Chris Christie who was the first transition head. Comey was not Trump's appt and he fired him. Fauci was a civil servant that should have been fired by countless presidents for his evil works on 'AIDS' which includes GHWB, GWB, etc. The idiotic 6 ft rule came from the GWB gameplanning an epidemic and a child's science project was introduced by one of the participants. Bill Barr was GHWB's Atty General. Blago, you would get a lot further if you are in fact a Republican by getting rid of your Trump derangement and recognize that the whole damn pool of GOP appointees is corrupted beyond belief.

She'll probably be all over CNN/MSNBC - like that asshole Steele Posted by: Big Star at February 07, 2024 12:40 PM (Modkf) I'm convinced that Steele was a Donk commie cocksucker mole from the beginning of his political career. He said all the right things until he could slither his way into the RNC head office, and then he did a total 180 in his rhetoric and sounded like Nancy Pelosi with an adam's apple.

My personal feeling is that we need to get Vivek into the spot in charge of the RNC, so he can start bringing the pain to the squishes, straighten out the accounting, and be a loud public attack dog, but it's very fair to say that he can do so much more than just that. Other candidates worth considering include Mike Lindell (who's just not MEAN enough for my tastes, but undeniably has the business acumen and is a true Patriot). Whoever it is desperately needs to not be a milquetoast, however.

Putin will win if you get behind on the flower arrangement gap with Russia!!!

Vivek was right, Trump, who originally picked Rona and has defended her, was wrong.
Once again,Trump made an idiotic pick for a position, but I'm supposed to believe that this time it'll be different Posted by: Deseret Rebel at February 07, 2024 02:26 PM (XHyWw) 517
I don't doubt the extravagant frippery spending from the RNC - not at all, after seeing how the PA GOP operates.
But I do believe those DNC numbers are cooked.

Nothing has been proven. The one claim I will agree with is voting "day of" caused delays. Because Kari Lake told people to vote day of and not early. People that were likely voting for Lake, went home (because they're lazy).
You can't award an election to someone that go fewer votes based on "they probably would have voted for Kari Lake had the line been shorter". Last Republican Governor won by double digits, long lines were not a problem for him. Posted by: Blago at February 07, 2024 01:31 PM (pogwM) The problem for Lake wasn't long lines, it was that polling stations were closed, there were no ballots or improper ones. Waiting wasn't going to fix that. Posted by: Oldcat at February 07, 2024 02:41 PM (eoQWY) 519
The GOP spent money on themselves and were outspent by the Democrats on actual campaign expenditures. It was just a country club for the GOP and they didn't give a shit if they won or lost.

Take it from a finance/accounting person:
no one wants to see those uselessly detailed numbers (with pennies!) show this instead: Floral Arrangements: RNC - $70.3k DNC - $0.7k Also - is $1MM that much money? $1MM is 10 low-paid people in DC, or 5 well-paid people, for 1 yr's work. I'm not saying there's no waste... but these are not giant numbers. Posted by: Rockford at February 07, 2024 04:16 PM (/dysQ) 521

Posted by: Rockford at February 07, 2024 04:16 PM (/dysQ) It's not that the numbers are that large, but it's the priorities. The GOP spent on lifestyle, but the Democrats spent on campaigns. Posted by: DFCtomm at February 08, 2024 02:55 PM (50VAR) 522
