The grift … strong, it is!
Normally that attitude makes me quite angry.
But I will give it a pass on this one.

I’d suspend you for an hour just for this. The other words are fine.

Animals. The whole lot of them.
I agree with you, but I liked the one-liner.

She should get extra security. Those rural KY white men are utterly obsessed with Black women. One time I was down in Laurel County for work. Dropped my stuff at the hotel and ran out to get a bite to eat. I walked into the restaurant and the way those men looked at me scared the living shit out of me. I’ve never been more afraid for my life. I immediately drove back to my hotel, got my stuff, and left. Drove back to the Ville like 40 going north.

He is a redneck racist republican. Republicans who continue to support Trump either fit into that category or they pretend they care about the unborn, or they really like their growing bank accounts.
If we could draw a Venn diagram, we’d see a lot of matchy-matchy.

Yes, but he is still an immature child, like most of the GQP.

It’s not uncommon for northern liberals to say “go ahead, good riddance” when southern Republicans start their semi-annual blathering about seceding from the U.S., and I’d be lying if I said that I didn’t have some emotional sympathies for that opinion. I’ve been reading and hearing about white racist assholes, particularly in the South, for my entire life, and few things would make me happier if those people were raptured up tomorrow. This country would be vastly better off in a multitude of ways.
Secession is never going to happen, and it shouldn’t for a variety of reasons, particularly this one: it’s blindingly obvious that if the states of the Confederacy did secede, the rights of Black citizens in those states would be compromised immediately. The actions of peckerwoods like Rogers show the seething racial hostility just bubbling below the surface—if they ever felt they had free rein to scratch their racist itch without fear of a federal government, all hell would break loose and it would get very ugly very quickly.

Sounds good, but if this is true, why wait until May? If you know who you want to subpeona, what’s wrong with February or March?
Your tax dollars at work. Hal Rogers secured $13M in federal funding to remove the tolls on the Daniel Boone Parkway, so of course they renamed it.

First thought. Good for him!
Second thought. Toll roads?
Third thought. Daniel Boone?
Here is a posting on kentuckyroads,com from the time (2003).

Daniel Boone was my fifth great-uncle as my line comes down through his sister Mary boone and her husband William Bryan. I feel it is a sad day that the Daniel Boone Parkway is being renamed. Having lived in Missouri for many years I think KY should return the remains of the bodies that they made such a big deal out of earlier. Evidently the Daniel Boone name means nothing to the State now.
Sincerely

They want to avoid accusations of the prosecution being political witch hunt.

Believe it’s more appropriately a Stand Your Ground situation.
Nancy may want to revisit that ban on self-defense in the House Chamber, so that the Member would not have had to board the train unarmed and unable to defend herself against an assault.

He gets extra points because 1) she is a “she” and 2) because she is (as my former senator would say) “blaaaa.”
