    Not rising tensions, just a dumbass ® who is too childish or received one too many hits in the head to actually do his job.

    Challenging someone to fight in a venue you know the fight will not be allowed to happen represents Oklahoma values? They may want to work on those.

    The GOP needs to watch that episode of Battlestar Galactica where Adama had them set up a boxing ring so the crew could all air out their grievances with each other. Gaetz and McCarthy can be the main event.

    Another GOP idiot threatened the head of the FBI because the head of the FBI wouldn’t play along with the GOP idiot’s conspiracy theory about a ghost bus of FBI agents (which didn’t exist) stirring up the MAGAts on J6 (we all saw who really stirred them up). And Rand Paul is still holding up appointments because he’s not getting proof that doesn’t exist of whatever conspiracy theory he’s pushing about the origins of COVID. Pretty soon we’ll have a MAGAt demanding that the government release its secret files on how 5G turns vaccinated people into devil worshippers.

    Mullin’s post-incident statement includes his referring to Andrew Jackson’s duelling, and canings on the Senate floor - and that such things should be brought back.

      I for one would love to see all the geriatric shit stains like McTurtle forced to put-up or shut-up when they start talking bullshit.

      Hell I’d gladly pay to watch Fled Cruz be flogged.

      Marge, Gym, or Butthead start mouthing off again? Let the Sergeant at Arms give em the ole Mace of the House of Representatives.

    Mullins (R-OK) repeatedly defended his actions. The former MMA fighter and a member of the National Wrestling Hall of Fame panned O’Brien to reporters as a “thug,” said he’s been “running his mouth forever” and “probably should have [his] butt whupped.”

    Over a tweet…

    Embarrassing and straight up sad.

      Abortions are fine as long as you force them into the prison system as slave labor first.

      You just can’t abort fetuses before they’ve had a chance to make money from them.
