Reposted from Republicans Against Trumpism

Yes, this is a real video, not AI of Sen. Joni Ernst “apologizing” after telling a constituent who warned Medicaid cuts would cost lives, “Well, we’re all going to die.”

Unbelievable.

I can think of nothing to say about Joni Ernst that wouldn't be (deservedly) offensive, so I'll be the bigger person and say nothing.

In the crusades, Christians cut unborn babies out of living women and tortured people in every manner imaginable and they justified it with the same reasoning Joni Ernst is using. Everyone dies, God exists and there is an afterlife to even the score. It doesn't matter what happens on earth.

What a butthead. Instead of just letting it pass or making a heartfelt apology, she. doubles down on her original evasive aggressive answer. If I still maintained any questions about her integrity, they are now gone.

I just participated in a local political convention and it's astonishing how easily cynical creeps can infiltrate otherwise good-faith democratic processes.

Our family spent a great deal of time discussing whether the Tooth Fairy bit was real and , if so, what the nature of her argument was.
