I just sent this email to my congresscritter: "Kill the iranians who won't make a deal. "

The subject is the quote with "you must impeach."

Your boss, who you protect, just posted this. Kill the Iranians who won't make a deal. And you claim to be a christian? Isn't that in the top 10? "Thou shalt not kill?" It doesn't say, "Unless you might lose your job."

It’s really embarrassing to be an American right now.

Mike Johnson, who once said "If you want to know my world view, open a Bible" has apparently never read Mathew 25.
And only certain parts of Leviticus, definetly not verse 19.

MASSIVE hypocrite.

P.S. Mike, release your Grindr profile.

Republics are hilarious comedians.

Why can't Dems take a joke?

And while Trump may be laughable, he has never once said anything wry, witty or even faintly amusing – not once, ever.

I don’t say that rhetorically, I mean it quite literally: not once, not ever. And that fact is particularly disturbing to the British sensibility – for us, to lack humour is almost inhuman.

But with Trump, it’s a fact. He doesn’t even seem to understand what a joke is – his idea of a joke is a crass comment, an illiterate insult, a casual act of cruelty.

Trump is a troll. And like all trolls, he is never funny and he never laughs; he only crows or jeers.

And scarily, he doesn’t just talk in crude, witless insults – he actually thinks in them. His mind is a simple bot-like algorithm of petty prejudices and knee-jerk nastiness.

There is never any under-layer of irony, complexity, nuance or depth. It’s all surface.

Some Americans might see this as refreshingly upfront.

Well, we don’t. We see it as having no inner world, no soul.

Sent all kinds of “suggestions” to Susan Collins and not once were my questions or requests referred to in the requested reply email. Just form letters with lies about how much she’s doing for the people of Maine like taking credit for the low price of insulin and how she “saved” Medicare for the elderly(?!!).

Israel didn’t care because the congregants are Persian.
