Wouldn't it be "cruel and unusual punishment" to livestream an execution? I know it's quaint to bring up the Constitution, but some of us still support it.

Mike Rogers, Roger Marshall, Michele Tafoya and Ken Paxton — all GOP nominees in hotly contested Senate races — own real estate in the Sunshine State. Democrats are eagerly trying to exploit it, with attacks so potent, one of them told MS NOW he sold his Florida home. Read more from Kevin Frey:

We're suing the Trump admin over policies that make it harder or impossible for eligible immigrants living in the U.S. to obtain a green card without leaving the country. This changes the rules on immigrants in the legal process and risks them being separated from their families.

Congresswoman Chellie Pingree: This is truly unhinged behavior from the President of the United States.

And I don’t want to hear “oh, it’s just Trump being Trump” or that he’s “trolling.” Enough. None of this is normal or okay.

Republicans cannot keep shrugging this off. Congress, the Cabinet, and everyone around him has a responsibility to stop enabling this dangerous behavior and start asking whether he is fit to hold this office.

no, idiots, the covid vaccine isn't made of fetus parts. Republicans weren't just dragging Dr. Fauci through the mud — they were using the hearings to dredge up every dumbfuck covid conspiracy theory under the sun. thank you for your attention to my very angry post. link is here: bit.ly/3S6jyqv
so, Rep. John McGuire is just making shit up and lying through his teeth in order to smear Dr. Fauci’s good name, and to fill the heads of Newsmax’s audience with dangerous garbage.

this level of fuckery is unsustainable. you cannot have a functional democracy when the party in power has had their brains pickled by counterfactual nonsense, and then recklessly feeds that shit to their gullible base.

John McGuire and his ilk can fuck straight off all the way to Mars.
