There will be another government after this one. And these dopes can’t imagine when they might have their turns taking the helicopter ride. I doubt the odds are even fifty fifty that the next government won’t be another totalitarian one which will erase theirs by dumping them in the sea.

I don’t think a better headline could have been written about what happened yesterday. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Calm down, folks, it was just an attempted assassination of a Jewish Democratic governor and his family on the first night of Passover, it’s not like somebody spray painted a dick on a Cybertruck.

You know what? I do blame every Republican. They brought this on. They knew what he would bring about and they did it anyway. They did it because it would hurt people they didn't like and not hurt themselves so much. They voted for him anyway.

Others have pointed this out already but the Booker's "stunt" is him literally Doing the Job - impassioned speechmaking is supposedly the main reason for Senators to exist and the only reason any of them from before the United States was established are remembered by name

This idea that there is a god given right for fascists to always be allowed to run in elections because somehow democracy is threatened by not allowing fascists to run for office is profoundly stupid, dangerous and makes people sound patently insane. Fascists want to kill democracy. That is all.
