"This didn’t seem like an armed insurrection to me. I mean 'armed,' when you hear 'armed,' don’t you think of firearms?"

"Here’s the questions I would have liked to ask. How many firearms were confiscated? How many shots were fired? I’m only aware of one and I’ll defend that law enforcement officer for taking that shot. It was a tragedy, OK? But I think there was only one." 

Said Senator Ron Johnson on the radio yesterday, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

"too many chins and not enough smarts." For reelz?

I can believe it, I just haven't seen it myself.

It has that Trump verve

Mutaman said...

"An earlier draft mocked McConnell for having multiple chins, the person said."

Andrew said...

Trump supporters showed up to an INSURECTION unarmed. I'm not aware of any Trump supporters who don't own firearms, lots of them. A mostly peaceful INSURECTION.

Although Trump has better editors than here. He was persuaded to remove the bit about McConnell having too many chins but not enough smarts.

I see there are some unnamed sources putting out some new hot Trump mind reading takes for dumbshits like Readering to use as arguments. It must be super hot because there is Mutaman backing her up.

Trump never said something. But boy did he think it and have it in the rough draft!

Time for a third impeachment!

And since Readering supports obviously fake evidence using something Trump never actually said in the trial will be no problem.

They will convict him for sure this time.

You people are just fucking stupid.

“ That shot is entirely justified. She's just down the hall from the members of Congress who have been ushered to safety behind a makeshift barricade...which she and her fellow rioters are smashing their way through, along with the locked glass door in front of it. That officer is sworn to protect the lives of the members of Congress and that is what he did. He has every conceivable reason to believe that a mob violently smashing its way through a barricade, heading right towards the congressional delegation, means to do violence to those members. It's so obvious it's insane to have to even debate this. If it was a BLM protestor doing the same in that video I'd say the same exact thing”.

If that was justified, then we need a whole lot of your fellow travelers shot. Literally thousands of your fellow scumbags. Which would be nice.

Is Achilles a bot?

"You people are just fucking stupid."

Not a good idea. Inbreeding is a thing.

The intellectual depth of your posts suggests a HS twit who is simply reading a DNC script.

We all know that you are just trying to annoy. Unfortunately, Achilles sometimes falls for it because he is trying to keep it real.

As usual, best to listen to the full interview. Jay Weber Show on iheartradio.
He's really one of our better Senators, as evidenced by the escalating media efforts to paint a target on him.

Shorter FranciscoD: meoh.

Cleveland Grover Meredith, drove to Washington from Colorado with an assault-style Tavor X95 rifle with a telescopic sight

I missed this comment earlier. I have to say that someone is crazy, either the owner of the rifle or the person reporting on it. The Tavor is what we call a “bull pup” design, very compact. It is designed for use in urban warfare environments because of its compactness. Point is, you put a telescopic sight on a rifle with a long barrel chambered for rounds designed to go a long way. Not on a rifle with the legal minimum 16” length chambered for rounds like 5.56 NATO. Probably they meant a red dot optical sight, for quick target acquisition at relatively close ranges.

You people don't get it. AOC. nearly. died. /s

Inga said...Althouse seems to be a moderate

A "moderate" wouldn't ignore massive election fraud in the nation as well as in their own back yard. Nor would a moderate ignore alternative media, while being a part of the alternative media, while still relying on the NYTs, Wash Post, and the New Yorker as relevant sources.

That's not moderate.

Staged. Fake.

Fransisco.
just remember they all voted for an old man who can't even read a cereal box. AND. They had to cheat to do it. So when they open their pie holes to snark it's just funny. Funny sad not funny haha.

pdug said...

the guy with the zip ties had a taser as well.

The guy with his feet on the desk in Pelosi's office had an electrified walking stick.

jg said...

I also don't understand why she was shot fatally at all.
