Disappointed with what I read. I thought I was going to read that he was calling them out for their absolute opposition to American ideals, and their continued pursuit of outright fascism, but instead I read this:

condemning them for capitulating on promises by working with Democrats and lamenting the party’s transparently vacuous approach

Damn that really is disappointing. I was hoping for the same.

It's almost as if it's a party full of grifters all chasing their own disreputable sources of income by picking some false moral that they don't believe in and try to force it on other people.

Chip Roy wouldn’t have a job if it wasn’t for his specially drawn district. Fucking gerrymander bullshit.

Don't know why I thought it was a Republican who finally grew both a spine and a conscience.

Chip Roy is not a name. It is the name of a sandwich.

You know what they call a chip butty in France? Le chip roi.

Roy Chip is my least favorite Dorito flavor.
