Markwayne Mullin: When are the Democrats going to stand up and apologize for the hatred and the lies that they have fed their base that has led to these actions?


Republican senator floats using violence against journalists who report 'fake news'

Markwayne Mullin recounted that a reporter fatally shot a former congressman in 1890, adding there might be less "fake news ... if we could still handle our differences that way."

Mullin, a former MMA fighter, has made headlines for nearly getting into a physical fight in 2023 with the president of the Teamsters union, Sean O'Brien, during a Senate hearing. As the men got into a verbal altercation, Mullin told O'Brien to "stand your butt up" and stood up as Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., shouted at him to "stop it."

we've been saying FOR 20 YEARS this shit has to stop and their response is to demean our position and call us childish names.

So how bout this, MARK--live by the sword, DIE by the sword. You can ask His Holiness The Speaker where that quote comes from.

And then you can kindly shut the fuck up, until you're ready to vote yes on gun control.

I care very much this was a political assassination. I don't care AT ALL that it was this particular Maga dipshit.
