Where the fuck are all the Republican Senators coming out to support the right of a fellow Senator NOT to be body-slammed and cuffed for asking a question in his OWN building in the state HE represents?
You KNOW what happened.
You SAW the video.
WHERE ARE YOU FUCKING COWARDS???

(15,473 posts)I've been waiting for a representative to decide to sacrifice their career to vote the right way. The way some did for the affordable care act. The kind Kennedy wrote about in Profiles in Courage. Cowards, cowards, cowards.

(936 posts)Alaska voted in Dem. Mary Peltola over Republican Sarah Palin. Murkowski won as an Independent over the Republican candidate that they had primaried her with because she voted guilty at Trump's last impeachment. Now it is time for her to go all the way and really commit to the fight against Fascism.

(21,811 posts)Thank goodness Dems are discovering or rediscovering you cannot work with fascists. Their views are so diametrically opposed to anything remotely resembling democracy that to even try is futile. A waste of time and oxygen.
