‘Despicable’: Cheney Blasts Gosar For Efforts To ‘Smear’ Officers Who Protected Capitol On Jan. 6 | Talking Points Memo

And yet, like so many military members who have been shown time and time again that the Republican party cares nothing for them, police officers will continue to vote “R”.

Jeez Louise.

Judge Faruqui: This is only going to work in person. Come to DC on June 18. If you can’t, file something. Or I’ll issue a bench warrant.

Pauline Bauer: I do not consent.

Judge Faruqui: You can sign off Ms. Bauer.

Someone is about to find out the hard way what happens when you piss off a Federal judge.

And a serial abuser, @castor_troy

According to court documents, Kraus’ girlfriend and mother of his two children accused Kraus of holding a pillow over her face, briefly causing her breathing to be restricted. His girlfriend told police Kraus “state he would take care of her jaw if she continued to run her mouth and threatened to throw her over the top railing of the house.” She also told police Kraus held her down on a couch and took her cell phone away so she couldn’t call 911. The responding officers also said Kraus resisted arrest.

All I got is “plausible deniability”.

I see, reading the Heavy article linked above, that he accelerated to 70 or 80 mph as he approached. Well, maybe he passed out with his foot on the accelerator - it is possible - but you’re probably right that he was acting out his racist assholery.

If he bought the vehicle for this purpose, he should enjoy birds, trees, flowers, grass and the sky as much as he can now, because he may not be seeing them very often for a while.

Sounds like there needs to be a very public explanation and accusation that Jan 6 was an attack on the Constitution and those participants who swore an oath to it are forsworn.

So is mine. And I’m thankful every day that he is not a member of my family.

Did you happen to notice any similarities between what she was wearing, and the Boston Marathon bombers had on them in the tapes?

I stand corrected on Gosar’s district.
Here’s a map of it… it’s more than just Prescott. It does include a chunk of the “east valley” near Phoenix And some of Mesa.

BTW. Don’t let him work on your teeth (He’s a D.D.S.)

Yes, your analysis is deeper than my memory of how we in AZ typify him. BTW Mesa has a large concentration of Mormons, well known for rightwing religiosity and political crankism.

Deeper only because my family has been around Arizona for a very long time. One branch has been around Phoenix/Scottsdale for 5 generations. To the south my own branch is now working on it’s third generation. I first visited Tucson in 1956 and moved here in 1968.

Have your neighbors ever expressed to you how they could go from Obama (and ‘his’ policies) and Trump (and ‘his’ policies)?

I can understand a lot of things but the two men are SO different…OR if they voted Obama 2008 and then Romney in 2012 and Trump in 2016 what policies changed then.

But the people who voted Obama 2008 AND 2012 and then went Trump? That seems cognitive dissonance for me.

I noticed she was in tactical gear.

I especially love that 20yo plus girl who was in a helmet and vest telling people where to go…doing that Hitler Dance in her bedroom. (And her mom says she never noticed ANYTHING!!!) I mean, she must’ve been fun at a after-graduation party. So she is pro-TRUMP as well as pro-HITLER.0

One problem may be that the DP doesn’t inspire as much confidence as it should. Not sure what the solution for that is per se…

I mean, I keep telling whiny DP party members that if they don’t like Bernie Sanders being in their party (which he still technically isn’t!) then why don’t they just not let him be on the party Central Committee? After that I hear mostly crickets… because, basically, they need Bernie to even be relevant at the national level in Presidential elections (and maybe more than a couple of Senate races too). If it weren’t for institutional entwinement of both the two major parties both those parties would be out on their ears is what I’m saying.

But to my point here. And that’s that the DP isn’t capable of running people from it’s own party machinery because it’s own party machinery isn’t actually ideologically capable of encompassing the many potential candidate(s) that could win in many of these races. Certainly not at this time anyways. And as we watch the DP flopping around in DC currently with all their proposed laws and bills that were somehow going to magically make everything so much better, yet can’t seem to be brought to the floor of the Senate to even receive a yay or nay vote, it’s not a wonder that many just throw up their hands when DP operatives come-a-callin. Maybe if the DP hadn’t totally pandered to the GOP when they passed the ACA over a decade ago now (and got zero political points for doing so) they’d have better luck inspiring confidence in potential people who would make good serious candidates…

Imma shutup now. I think most folks are aware of how bad things are… intuitively, if not functionally, etc. And me throwing more cynicism on the fire won’t fix this.

I should hasten to add that whomever did manage to get Bernie to run in the DP primaries for President though should be sainted. And hopefully not posthumously!
