"They also “got into confrontations with a local freelance photojournalist and with an anti-abortion preacher from Kansas,” reported CPR, adding that a single Trump fan also showed up at the Capitol on Inauguration Day" WOW. Big "RIOT" haha
"Denver Police (DPD) said two men were arrested in the area of 8th and High Street. Christopher Hughley faces a charge of obstruction and Thomas Yannuzzi is facing a dangerous weapons charge for having brass knuckles, according to DPD."

Meanwhile an arrested rioter in Seattle was “released on his own recognizance”! Hip Hip Hooray for Justice and Unity!!!
It is bizarro world today:
GOP and union teaming up against Biden on the pipeline.
Nutjob Quanon Greene has filed articles of impeachment on Biden. It’s insane how people like her, the “squad” get elected. It’s pretty effing sad
Crazy times for sure. After watching news the last couple days, no way Biden has more than 2 years in him.
I'd take 100 AOCs over 1 Marjorie "Sandy Hook and Parkland were staged" Greene.
I'm honestly baffled at some of the people who get elected to the House of Representatives. I assume that the Republicans generally come out of very rural districts where all they have to to in order to get elected is get on the ballot with an 'R' next to their name. On the Democratic side I assume the same thing but with small urban districts.Quote:

I also find it hilarious (the theme of my last 10 posts) - and sad - that so many people are gullible and desperate enough to not know that he was only pandering to them for his benefit, not theirs. This wasn't just evident in hindsight, it's who he is. It's mind boggling, but at the same time, such an interesting look into the psychology of these groups of people.Quote:

So I think the categorization of just voting to the person with the R next to it doesn't really hold water. Hell, the amount of party switching in down ballot races is hilarious. I knew quite a few elected officials that picked their political party on the basis of "the incumbent is X so I guess I am a Y now."Quote:

In the case of a Marjorie Taylor Greene that's a bit discouraging. So people actually knew what she was about, but said 'sign me up anyways'.Quote:
