““Civility has kind of disappeared,” she said. “Even in our party, and that’s sad.””
Lady, you realize your party did a fucking coup? Fuck off.
Best part... "Even in our party" That's the separation from reality...
Every. Time.
The coupers bouped.
The coup is ongoing.
Let them fight.
Could we throw some folding chairs into the ring with them, at least?
Sure!
I miss the good old days.
That's what I'm saying. If they want to cannibalize each other then have at it...
“Some people in our party are becoming less brainwashed, and that’s sad”
Who is 'she', quote the person so I can better judge them
Second paragraph
30-year involved republican. Judge away
King county means shes been getting her ass kicked for 30 years and is still showing up for more.
Kinda gotta respect that at least, even if she's fighting for the wrong team.
Just judge all the GQP the same.

You hate to see it. /s
Spokane will always be the city that voted to allow domestic terrorist Matt Shea into the government.
If you're not familiar with Domestic Terrorist Matt Shea, you should absolutely read about him.
I'm quite well aware of Matt Shea and his ilk. I first heard about him on Aron Ra's YouTube channel because he was organizing counter-protests against the Satanic Temple at the Idaho and Washington State capitols. There were some other things I was less aware of though, so that was definitely an enlightening read.
I especially liked the part about his jihad..."document, consisting of 14 sections" which I can only assume is a thinly veiled callback to the 14 words from David Eden Lane. There are some seriously deranged Nazi mother fuckers across Eastern Washington and Idaho. I don't want them getting anymore emboldened than they already are, and it is good to have a reminder of what we are dealing with in this country.
Not to defend Spokane but that was Spokane Valley. If you know the difference that’s all that needs to be said. Still part of the metro but technically not Spokane city proper.
This is the same Semi Bird who faced a recall from the Richland WA school board after his vote to rescind mask mandates violated state law and cost the school district a ton of money.
Of course that makes him a Republican hero.
No, every time, but just the tip.
Bird up
If this, after everything, the monsters beginning to eat themselves in earnest, or still not yet
I hope so, I've been edging on that idea since the Lincoln Project was born. Split the cons so we can pull the dems left without having a fucking knife to our throats.
Milwaukee is gonna burn this year.
That’s a lot of people flipping the bird….
It must be invisible Jewish space lasers causing disruptions . . .
