It was just shy of six weeks after the 2020 election and Jason Miller, a top campaign adviser to former President Trump, had a problem.
These are the texts Meadows gave to the committee. I wonder what texts he chose to keep. What a mess and hopefully the DOJ prosecutes these insurrectionists.
I understand the best texts are yet to come!
Off-Topic (Sorry)
One of the most bracing, bizarre aspects of Mark Meadows texts with members of Congress is the fact that many truly seemed to believe the most absurd claims and conspiracy theories.

That would suggest a mass psychosis. (Disclosure: I don’t know what I’m talking about.)
Seriously, there’s a lot of unchecked nutitude in all kinds of realms – political parties, religious perverts, child killers, damn speeders on the roads – enough to justify a medical evaluation, I’d say.
ETA: Now back to reading the story. Like MacArthur : - )
This is just a perfect description,
Sidney Powell outlined a theory of the 2020 election which attributed Biden’s win to an international necro-communist conspiracy helmed by deceased Venezuelan leader Hugo Chavez.
Good lord, she texted something too long to read. Why not pick up the phone or send an email? I hate texting and had something like this landed on my phone, the delete key would’ve been used.
The guidance for Trump in Ryan’s epic magnum opus
Meadows’s texts are the gift that keeps on giving.
It seems that Rudy was out there like the Lone Ranger. Some of the House Reps thought his antics were nutso.
For me Maria Ryan is a delightful new addition to our cast of seditious characters. She’s Rudy’s girlfriend. My Gawd!
It’s interesting that they never establish Maria Ryan as Giuliani’s GF. They always preface it with “reported” or some such, so I wonder with her always pushing for payment, was she doing a two-step with Giuliani, wherein he “magnanimously” declines payment publicly, all the while she’s pushing for the dough in the background, or was she doing a solo act and just grifting off Rudy’s name?
“Number one, you’re not allowed to get my number,” Hannity said, adding, “What are your questions?”
…TPM asked him if he thought it was “appropriate” for a member of the political media to do business deals with associates of the former president.
“You think it’s appropriate when you know Fox’s rules to bypass Irena and call me directly?” Hannity asked incredulously, before adding, “You can take your predetermined outcome, which is already written in your head, and write whatever the hell you want. I don’t give a shit. You knew the rules and you didn’t care.”
Delish. Any day TPM pisses off spawn inanity is a good one. And Inanity wanting to do a “NC Real estate” deal with meadowmuffins? Which way do you think the cash is going to flow in that one?
<< shudder >>
My new band name is the International Necro-communists.
Giuliani did not respond to requests for comment made at four different phone numbers he has used regularly.
Let us know when you’ve tried the other 14 phones.
Oh wait, they all got taken…
Dr. Maria Ryan is new to me, too. She has a doctorate. Love her formal writing style. Like a polite pen pal from the past who has just been introduced to texting. Yet she takes up with Rudy?! Come on, Dr. Maria Ryan, you can do better.
Dr Maria Ryan
She’s a Brit (who doesn’t use a period–oh, sorry, I meant full stop–after an abbreviated title)?
She’s a nurse. She has a PhD in hospital admin. I remember all the grief the maggots, Qcumbers, and trumpanzees have give Dr. Jill Biden for using the title “Dr.” If I wasn’t such a cynic, I’d probably believe they were being honest in their umbrage over the use of the title.
The paranoid delusions – the myriad combinations of ignorance, venal boot licking, and grifting – exposed in these texts is truly epic but the thing that gets me is how exhausting it ultimately becomes trying to argue with anyone who is willing to utter this kind of trash regardless of whether they actually believe it or not: whether they are fools or con artists, idiots or criminals (not necessarily mutually exclusive of course) makes no difference at all; there is no way to deflect them from their course once they gain any momentum, particularly if they find a buyer. Cripes!
“It is startling to realize how much unbelief is necessary to make belief possible.” ― Eric Hoffer, The True Believer: Thoughts on the Nature of Mass Movements
5 of those he lost in various limos, and the SDNY FBI have the rest.
“I strongly believe it CANNOT be Powell who leads it . K. Cuccinelli or someone of equal prominence.”
What a strange world.
Hunter Walker
Ryan was particularly interested in a video that showed Georgia election workers Ruby Freeman and Shay Moss doing their jobs, but which was distorted by Giuliani and others to be evidence of fraud. Ryan called the clip the “Zaprota film” in the text to Meadows, an apparently butchered reference to the Zapruder film, which captured the Kennedy assassination.
Do federal prisons offer their inmates a course in remedial spelling? It seems like every single one of these idiots would benefit from one.
