      Comment (and others like it) is being reported for strong language, I’d note on the civility rule, targeting the subject of an article with strong language is ABSOLUTELY fine. Just not other users, and no user is being targeted here.

      The only removable language are words that rise to the level of slurs and I wouldn’t say, as strong as this one is, that it’s at that level.

        Well said. Also, that particular word is interesting for how it is received in the US (generally) vs. the UK (again, generally).

          Or Australia… but I’m 100% certain they meant it in the US sense, not the Aussie sense. ;)

      Northeast Northwest Georgia will never get tired of sending that person to Congress.

      Edit: because I still confuse my right and left

      Honestly it’s funny, I read right and left wing content and the only people who ever mentioned this dumb treestump are people on the left. It’s like the right doesn’t even want to admit she’s on their side.

        I gather that is more recently. Before she became a household name, they seemed into her enough.

    by her standards of passing off a counterfeit $20*, we should have Trump drawn, quartered and hung.

    (*he may not have been aware. around $70 million bills in circulation are counterfeit. 1 in 10k. Or he may have been given the phony bill from somebody else. We don’t know because the investigation stopped just as soon as they murdered him.)

      I’m gonna be that guy. The word you were looking for is hanged. Stormy Daniels already let us know he is definitely not hung.

      Honestly he probably knew. But that doesn’t mean the police get to fucking execute him in the street.

        maybe. maybe not. We won’t know now, though. And that’s why killing people will never be just. (I’m imperfect. I’d make a few exceptions.)

        Honestly, I’m convinced it wasn’t counterfeit. The police refused to show any evidence of the bill other than a single photograph. If they actually had it they would have been parading that on fox 24/7. But, yes, even of he had knowingly used a counterfeit bill that doesn’t justify execution, let some extra judicial execution.

      They should all recognize that, if she’s voting with you, you’re voting badly.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    On Monday, Greene, a Republican representative of Georgia, went on an expletive-filled rant in which she accused Democrats including Jamie Raskin of Maryland of worshiping Floyd, whose death sparked global outrage and protests over police brutality.

    Greene’s comments came after Raskin said that some Republicans “blindly worship” convicted felons in a congressional hearing on Covid-19, NBC reports.

    The hearing followed Trump’s conviction last week in which he was found guilty on 34 counts of fraud in a historic hush-money trial that involved adult film star Stormy Daniels.

    George Floyd did not deserve to die, and a member of Congress should have the decency to acknowledge his humanity,” the Congressional Black Caucus continued.

    Former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin pleaded guilty in 2021 to civil rights charges in his killing of Floyd in May 2020.

    In addition to pleading guilty to civil rights charges, Chauvin was also convicted of second and third-degree murder and manslaughter.


    The original article contains 388 words, the summary contains 154 words. Saved 60%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!

    More projection. This is the same kind of nonsense argument the cons make about how the reality-based community “worships” the likes of Darwin.

        And you care about how some dumb bitch of a representative is seen why? Like I get what your saying. But I hate her.
