ITS JORDAN TIME

Without a doubt one of the most purely punchable people in Congress

My lord how much Red Bull has this man consumed

Literally people died and he’s complaining about cancel culture, he is a human parody

WHY IS HE TALKING ABOUT CHUCK YAEGER

even a lot of Republicans must find him insufferable at this point

Jim Jordan: it’s very divisive to cancel literal Nazis

I don’t expect any Dem to call out the reps speaking who literally committed sedition and almost got them killed and I am disgusted about that.

I don’t care if it’s not decorous. I do. Not. Care. Neither should they.

Let me clear about this: CALL THEM OUT BY NAME. By fucking name. Say what they did, clearly and without any dancing around it.

Please don’t give me the parliamentary reasons why they can’t or shouldn’t do that, I’m uninterested.

“Some of my colleagues” fuck off with that shit. Say their names.

Also they aren’t your colleagues or friends, they tried to kill you.

A number of these reps are also literally saying things that WILL be interpreted by extremists as further incitement, I feel like that fact shouldn’t be allowed to slide by

People died but SARAH SANDERS WAS POLITELY ASKED TO LEAVE A RESTAURANT ONE TIME

I know it’s been said a million times at this point but it’s both remarkable and utterly unsurprising to me how many GOP electeds seem very unconcerned about the fact that the VP was almost executed-by-mob and cops were assaulted and one was beaten to death

They don’t give a shit about cops. They never have.

Or rather, they care about cops as a violent fascist support to their status quo. Cops as human beings, not so much.

Swalwell not saying names so far but he is at least bringing a lot of the right language

YAY CASTRO

Again, whenever Republicans invoke Lincoln I wish someone would bring up Sherman burning a large swath of the South to the fucking ground because it’s not enough to beat them, you have to destroy them.

Lincoln was into binding up the nation’s wounds once the Confederacy was utterly pulverized. Not before.

Putting Atlanta to the torch must have been fairly divisive at the time
