Even sadder, because in matter of fact, the action is newsworthy and brave. It should absolutely not be so.
βDistrust in government has permeated the most local levels,β said Colin Clarke, a terrorism expert. βIβm familiar with the indicators of extremism and radicalization. I see them in places I never expected to see them. If you had told me as terrorism expert Iβd be talking about school boards, Iβd have said youβre crazy.β
this may have been covered elsewhere but it just staggered me when i read about it. i think the governor of iowa is trying to out stupid de santis and abbottβ
Butβ¦ itβs only the SOUTH that is racist and right wing!!! /s
Yeah, itβs especially nuts that the recall election ousted a lifelong conservative Republican who was a former sheriff. His main βsinβ was failing to openly defy state law when it came to COVID-19 restrictions. God help us all.
Itβs really hard to be shocked anymore by GOP antics but this comes close.
And now the Republicans wonβt even vote for Democratic bills that directly tie into their own political biasesβ¦
Funny how βlegitimate political discourseβ isnβt the phrase they use for peaceful protests when itβs about how black lives matter.
Well that helps explain this

Durham said that during a 2018 investigation, he reviewed two FBI cell phones belonging to the bureauβs former general counsel, James Baker.
Last year, Durhamβs grand jury indicted lawyer Michael Sussmann, charging that the attorney failed to tell Baker that he was acting on behalf of a client during a 2016 meeting in which Sussmann relayed information about a supposed link between a Trump organization server and a Russian bank. Baker was Durhamβs chief β and only β witness.
The case against Sussmann was a head-scratcher. It has been criticized as minor, irrelevant to the broader question of the FBIβs investigation of Russian interference in the 2016 election, and a politically motivated attempt to follow Trumpβs call to investigate the investigators.
Candace Owens butted into that mess
Despite Owensβ intrusion, that dude is one hateful little ball of toxic masculinity.
A florida man with a Letβs Go Brandon shirt and a Sonic mask tried to rob a bank. It went as well as you expect it would.
What a farging icehole.
If youβre going to attempt to rob a bank with a hammer then you should either plan on bringing a really big hammer or go to a bank where the tellers arenβt all safely locked behind a wall of bulletproof glass.
