Bear spray can leave lasting burns. I used to do public outreach and ed with that stuff and have been burned by it on my hands. It's nasty, sores can last a long time and be painful. Would really suck to have them on your face. Ouch!

I worked in management in several corporations, and had anyone brought a phone to a major managers’ meeting and sat there reading from it, that person would have been told to put it away and pay attention. Republican Senators like Cruz act like spoiled children who have no responsibilities at all. Let’s see some Senate rules where Senators who do not do their work, like listening to the hearings we pay them to hold and attend, have hefty fines deducted from their pay.

I remember when “Officer Tamarris L. Bohannon“ was killed. A black officer killed by white assailant 08/2020, there was an hours long stand off after the officer’s murder, no shots were fired by police and not much media coverage.

Whenever he's not whining about his bad press, he does whatever he can to generate more bad press. These petty little displays are his way of communicating his utter disdain, with a chaser of "What are you going to do about it?" Then when he gets some feedback he'll simper and whine that everybody's being meeeeeeen to him.

Like the class comedian most of us knew in grade school, that one who constantly bounced between having a smart lip and a fat lip.
