What does Senator Leahy know? Notice how Senator Leahy raises his head up and asks “you sure of that”? Lawyers never ask a question they don’t already know the answer to. I think Senator Leahy has receipts.

“The “staff must at all times be physically able to run, jump, lunge, twist, push, pull, apply approved restraint techniques and otherwise manage or coerce the full weight of an INFANT or adolescent.”

This Is Getting Really Dangerous
Katherine Krueger
Today 9:13am
On Wednesday morning, Fox News used its biggest megaphone to amplify an attention-starved congressman’s bad faith charge against Rep. Ilhan Omar: that, in remarks before the Council on American-Islamic Relations, she characterized the Sept. 11 attacks as “some people did something.”
That this is a willful misreading of her fuller point—that all Muslims in America have faced violence, intimidation, and discrimination as a result of the actions of a small group of extremists—shouldn’t surprise you. But still, this morning’s New York Post cover should take you aback:
Is the Post—owned, like Fox News, by Rupert Murdoch—whispering in the ears of extremists everywhere? Whatever your thoughts on that, this has already gone entirely too far, and is likely to only pick up steam.
The irony is that this narrative around Omar’s remarks is proving her exact point—bigots began widely equating terrorists with all Muslims after 9/11, but ask us not to do the same if the terrorist is white—so cutting off Omar’s remarks to make it seem like she was minimizing the attacks fits an Islamophobic narrative already entrenched on the right.

“…Two people were found dead inside the multimillion-dollar home of renowned businessman and former part-owner of the Minnesota Vikings Irwin Jacobs this week, following a possible murder-suicide.
The bodies were discovered in a bed next to a handgun by a routine visitor of the Minnesota residence on Wednesday morning, Orono Police Chief Correy Farniok confirmed in a press conference.
“Officers with the Orono Police Department made entry into the home. Upon entering, we found two individuals deceased — one adult male, one adult female — they were both inside the house and a gun was recovered —
Irwin’s company, Jacobs Management Corp., later released a statement on behalf of the couple’s five children confirming Irwin, 77, and his wife of almost six decades, Alexandra, had died.
Though police were unable to confirm the details around the case, Dennis Mathisen, one of Irwin’s longtime business partners, told The Star Tribune that the prominent businessman had killed his wife of 57 years before turning the gun on himself.
“[Alexandra] had been in a wheelchair for the last year or so and had signs of dementia. Irwin was just distraught over her condition,” he told the publication, adding that he learned of the tragedy after speaking to Irwin’s secretary and son Mark Jacobs.

Trump believes rebooting family separation will deter migration, despite the fact the first time he separated families it didn’t deter migration.
It did, however, lead to families making more dangerous remote crossings — which resulted in the deaths of two young children. https://t.co/UETsYZGS9d https://twitter.com/jacobsoboroff/status/1115325005829529600?s=17
Yeah, and it’s the season for dangerous crossing and dying from dehydration.
The Arizona desert is heating up.

In all seriousness, I know it’s fun to joke about Candace Owens, but her being given a platform to speak on the same level as @KristenClarkeJD at the hate crimes hearing is a mockery and disrespectful of the very real violence black Americans have always faced in this country. https://twitter.com/nhannahjones/status/1115753919639162885?s=17

What an asinine quote. He isn’t a millionaire because he “wrote a book,” he’s a millionaire because he built a national profile and then traded on that profile to make money. Just like all the other politicians his supporters love to call “corporate whores.” https://t.co/GR8YuWGfNb https://twitter.com/TheStagmania/status/1115721552245473281?s=17

And this is why @RepSwalwell candidacy is a non-starter for me. I’m not interested in any Dem candidate whose priority is making nice with Republicans, the party that supports white supremacy. https://t.co/afQq5YYWPw https://twitter.com/PragObots/status/1116164051502018560?s=17
You know what? I like him but it troubled me when he said this.
https://twitter.com/ericswalwell/status/1103503233060880384
I told him….No thank you. You can’t dance with the devil in the pale moonlight.
He is from a district that got even redder and even more right-wing after California’s ‘non-partisan’ redistricting happened..
He defeated longtime congressman Pete Stark …And so many were unhappy about it..
And many loathed Eric Swalwell – not just because he was so young and green and had defeated Pete Stark who was popular and had held the seat for 30 years.. but because there was a concern that he was a California ‘blue dog’ Democrat – far too conservative ..
Nancy took him under her wings and started to groom him.. and after a while, began to send him out to do t.v shows etc.
He not only became less stiff, but much bolder and a much better and confident communicator …effectively pushing the party’s perspectives.. And in the process, he shed his blue dog reputation.. And loads of Californians from solidly blue parts, began to warm up to him..
He easily won this past election with 78% of the votes .. giving his opponent a real trashing..
I personally think that he’s not quite ready for the presidency … I think several people running aren’t.. And as much as people say things like, ‘it’s an embarrassment of riches’ about our candidates, I beg to differ..
Now, 2008 was a strong crowd and a true ‘embarrassment of riches’ for the Democratic Party..
This 2020 field as far as I’m concerned, not so much… Compared to the treasonous buffoon, they do look so much better – which is why everyone and their mama is throwing their hat in the race.. but we will lose if we field any of these folks.. bank on it..
When most of these declared folks aren’t even topping their own home states in the public or in-house party polls or even in polls conducted by their campaign, it is quite problematic for them and reveals what many of us know… the ginned up hype on social media by paid/affiliated ‘influencers’ don’t add up to much in the real world.
Bussing in folks from out of state and having kingmakers invested in ones candidacy strong-arm their union boss friends into mandating turn-out …to boost ones numbers at official announcement rally, does not equal real support or ‘excitement’..
No, you talk to your racist ASS folks, Eric and tell them to get a fucking CLUE.
There will be NO coming together with them or some “open minded: fox viewers. These folks are all about their own WHITENESS.
