This bunch of Project 2025 yahoos have graduated from arresting legal immigrants to arresting political rivals for doing their jobs.

The Republican fascist party is scum.

Murkowski is distressed because she's not stupid. This is a PERSONAL threat to her. She knows that the only people higher on MAGA's enemies list than uppity lefties are impure righties. Remember, the FIRST people Trump hurt when he took power were red-staters. Instilling unquestioning among their supporters is always Job #1 for Nazis, and even before there was a Kristallnacht, there was the Night of the Long Knives.

Jebus, Marge reminds me of a Dollar Store Ernestine Tomlin, the AT&T operator of Laugh-In fame.

How long until they start asking witnesses, “are you now or have you ever been a member of the Democrat Party.”?

And yes, they will call it that.

Even I can righteously deny membership in that non-existent party.

I’ll take a hard pass on listening to Missing Link Marge’s laughter. Her voice is nauseating.

Yes, Empty, I am anti-fascist. I assume by your accusation, you are pro fascism, embrace fascism, and wisht o force the country to do the same.

Do you know why the Chump administration has never been able to locate and arrest a single leader of Antifa?

Because Antifa leaders don't hang out in Home Depot parking lots.

what's clear is that charges that someone is "Antifa" finally rings passé

One important point for this: Padilla said he had a question *about the slides she was showing*. (From the video, it sounded like he was trying to ask about the people labeled as criminals on the slides.)

That would make it a pertinent, relevant question that needed to be addressed in that moment, before she continued.

So, yes, he had to interrupt her. And she had him removed *so that she could keep talking without being fact-checked.*

Frau Marj is someone whose vehicle I would virulently vandalize, inflicting the sort of damage that would sneak up on her and leave her stuck in traffic later. All I need is a screwdriver.The woman is THAT contemptible.

Sometimes it's worth getting arrested.

While you're not wrong, we have to reach a handful of them. As much as that party and everyone in it has disgraced themselves and America, we have to find a way to flip a few of them. Democrats and activists couldn't have brought Nixon down without some help from the GOP.

Apparently even those few old school GOPers are so gawddamn chickenshit that they won't cross over and take a stand. Sen. Kennedy initially was against Bobby Brainworm getting to destroy HHS but rolled over on the basis of "promises" made because if they aren't cultists they are enablers.

The MAGAts are an enemy - they have decided that as they don't see anyone on the "Democrat" side as anything but their sworn enemies so it's time to buckle up and start acting like this is war - because it is.
