Hmmm, fundraising off the death of someone he used to love to humiliate. Right on brand.

You have to pray she’s a resilient person, because she has a lot to come back from. I’ve rarely heard of such a mindless, heartless law, and that Rokita is just a corrupt authoritarian son of a bitch. I hope the doctor gets the meanest lawyer in the midwest and roasts him over a slow fire.

Armed Man Arrested After Threatening Rep. Jayapal Near Home (nymag.com)

According to a probable-cause statement, police officers arrived and found the man, whose name was redacted, outside the prominent congresswoman’s house on Saturday, “standing in the middle of the street” with a Glock pistol in a holster on his waist. A neighbor told officers that he was yelling “I’m going to kill you” and “Go back to India” at the home of the first Indian American woman elected to the House. Jayapal had called 911 to report that someone was using obscene language outside her house and that they may have fired a pellet gun. When the man was arrested late on Saturday night, officers claim he told them he “knew who lived at the residence and wanted to pitch a tent on their property

I didn’t realize New York had legalized recreational pot use. I remember when the city put in these draconian laws years ago for everything. Times do change. :sunglasses:

Seems a bit far astray for Donald Jr to be making a scene.

One thing you have to say about today’s Republicans is that they refuse to adjust their actions or policies based on or otherwise be confused by the facts.

I’m trying to think of a literally appropriate description for AG Rokita.

Son of a bitch won’t do it, because it’s a slam at his mother as much as it is at him. Similarly, motherfucker involves her in his antisocial behavior as well. Now, she was involved in raising the bastard (dammit, that won’t fly either) and thus merits some level of opprobrium for his unfortunate choice of profession and misbehavior. But the right level is problematic: does she merely run out from under the porch to bite people in the ass, or is she actively evil and a sexual abuser of her offspring? I just don’t know.

Maybe we need to turn to the world of invertebrates? I think louse might be an apt descriptor for him. Lice are blood-sucking parasites and disease vectors of no apparent function. Even mosquitos serve to feed bats.

Yeah, I think louse is right. Hagfish would be an apt descriptor too, if anyone besides me, and @ralph_vonholst (ETA) and @rascal_crone knew what they are.

H/T @mattinpa for the verb sap re: @rascal_crone.
