too bad. Treason, attempted murder? Sorry, no returns, no discards until 2022. U.S. congressmen are elected to FEDERAL office, and the constitution does not provide that relief.

House leadership could refuse to allow insurrectionists to caucus, and they could finish their terms in prison, but I presume they'd continue to be paid until those ran.

I didn't know this until now. Shocking. Seriously. Many, but far from all, states allow recall of state and local reps.

It is my understanding she didn't try to hide the crazy and still got elected. If that is true, they knew what they were voting for...

Amendment XIV, Section 3
They would be replaced with another from the same party somehow. It would still be a good thing to do.

someone voted for these types, that's the complete whole and damning truth about America at this time in our evolution as a democracy. That is holding, so far. I'm just glad the fascists' are now out in the open. Will always have a profile they cannot slide under a rock or into a putrid toi...swamp-gutter-sewer with and emerge a new swamp creature, "toilet bug" in their god, trump.

We've probably always had our populists and snake oil salesman -- that had a clever "patter" that sold well. But point out please where previously we had been electing people who were so transparently shallow and vacuous. Now-a-days, "owning the libs" means it really is possible to put lipstick on a pig. And sell it!

I had a person try to pull a fast one with a Diploma in an interview. They produced the document it just didn't look right. I spotted that they mill made an incorrect state seal. The kicker was the school didn't exist. Counterfeits exist.

If not yet nominated, I'd like Ted Cruz to apply. If already nominated, I'm happy to provide the second on that. If he's unavailable, maybe Josh Hawley could help out.

Ted Cruz is on his own for this job. Josh Hawley won't help. He's only interested in helping himself.

But she's absolutely not carrying that gun for self defense.

Just one look at her surroundings — in an upscale establishment of exclusively white families dining in the middle of the afternoon — tells me her earrings aren't the only jewelry she's wearing.

She could have left that in the glove box of the pick up truck if she didn't want everyone to look at it. And by proxy, her.

I do not like that woman. Not one bit, and if I were there I'd say something. Nothing nasty, but I'd probably put my hands up and beg her to please not shoot me.

On edit:
Is she hopping tables there, or is that pitcher for her? In this state we can't carry and drink (for some reason).

It’s called “Shooters” and most of the servers carry guns. It’s a gimmick.

Rifle is a fairly backward town on Colorado’s west slope. The other bar in town is called WingNutz. You can’t make this stuff up.

Lauren is not who she thinks she is.

Some words for Lauren:

I hope you have that gun unloaded. I would hate for you to lose a toe or two next time you pull it.

And remember, if you are carrying in a crowded room, and touch your gun, there will be a few people who tense up and instinctively reach for their concealed carry weapons.

Please change your name to Karen.

I assume there are a number of these "ads" and similar floating around. The whole subject is a natural target - large, doughy and soft. Not unlike the specific target... except for the "large" part, of course.
