31. Roid Raging Senator
Fri Mar 6, 2026, 04:40 PM
18 hrs ago

At the SOTU address Senator Markwayne Mullin attempted to grab a sign from Congressman Al Green who is 78. The sign was a protest against the recent racist portrayal of blacks as apes. And a very aggressive Mullin rushed at Representative Green nearly assaulting him trying to snatch the sign from him. So he must have been triggered to fight him in defense of that racist meme by being so enraged at Green's protest against it. So he seems quick to favor force over rhetoric. If he becomes head of DHS, we will probably see even more people die under his watch by attacks at the hands of agents of our own country as well as acts of revenge from abroad against Trump's war. If personnel is policy, this regime is fully staffed with bad policy-- both foreign and domestic.
