I never knew there were so many dumb asses in this world. I have not led a sheltered life. Far from it.

I am beginning to suspect that not only did the Russians hack our elections, they sent an entire population of deplorables to infiltrate and create a ‘new normal.’

Like Pod People - Night of the Living Dead stuff.

This needs to be slapped down. This lawsuit is a frivolous use of the courts -a federal lawsuit? Give me a break.

The named defendants are the Senate’s Democratic president, two Democratic senators, the legislature’s top lawyer, its interim H.R. director and an outside lawyer who looked into Boquist’s remarks.

Boquist: “If any of these defendants dare to hire lawyers to represent them in court, they better send bachelors and come heavily armed.”

Everyone knows if you’re menacing, it has consequences.
So, eh, he’s another oligarch’s handmaiden who thinks he should be enabled to have his cake and eat it, too.

The guy should be charged for threatening the lives of police officers and permanently thrown out of government.

Since I can assume at least pennies of my OR taxes pay this skip-out-on-work freeloading wingnut, all I can say is Boo fucken hoo. Walk out on your work deliberately, you deserve to get fired, especially when you’re making threats, so really he’s getting off easy. He’s just embarrassed his crazy is getting pointed out in a big way.

It’s mind boggling Democrats allow this to succeed. Republicans would never capitulate to these tactics.
