    This is so much satire that it’s a little hard to tell if it’s satire.

    Terrible headline, I assumed the statue was suggesting the people involved are shit. The fact that it’s on a desk makes it very different, this is despicable.

      I mean, it happened.

      Paragraph 17. (Link opens justice department public PDF on the issue.)

      Edit: And it is suggesting as you said. Mrs. Pelosis name is there as it was her desk. (I think she is retired and I mean her no disrespect.)

    what… the fuck…?

    Like. No. seriously. What… in the actual fuck…? is this an official thing or did somebody drop it off?

    Whose getting fired for it?

        Yep.

        Which is why whoever approved it should be taken out back and, uh, terminated.

        The idea that honoring insurrectionists who beat the shit out of cops, who desecrated the halls of democracy and broke an unbroken tradition of a peaceful transfer of power… in some how democratic is a slap in the face of every American. Even the fake-ass patriots.

            I did.

            They got a permit, it was approved.

            They posted a plaque honoring the people who broke in

            There’s no indication of a bait and switch, as far as the “art” was concerned.

            Whoever approved the permit and allowed that art to be installed needs to have their employment terminated. This is a severe fuck up, and no, “democracy” doesn’t need to tolerate such bullshit.

          They aren’t honouring them. It’s literally a giant turd to make fun of them. That’s the whole joke.

              I don’t know, I reread it and that quote on the plate sounds pretty sarcastic to me. “To loot, urinate, and defecate through these hallowed halls to overturn an election” sounds more like a dig than actual reverence to me.
