One issue is the Democrat Senators/House members are hiring young loons freshly indoctrinated from the halls of liberal colleges. These youngsters haven't grown up enough to realize what you should or shouldn't do in the "adult" world.
They've also been taught over their 4 years steeped in liberalism that respect and decorum along with societal rules don't apply when you meet someone from the opposite party or someone who believes differently than you. You are allowed,no REQUIRED in order to keep your liberal creds to "get in their faces" and toss a tantrum using any vile language that pops into their heads.

And speaking of 4chan ... one of the young relatives who was in the EveryLady household last night is an acquaintance of one of the 4chan founders (though he's now moved on to google or some such place). What a fascinating world that is !!!

Those aren't conspiracy theories or distorted - unless you are a liberal democrat who doesn't want to hear the truth.

As one commentator put it, senators want to be able to let the public come there and talk to them so voters don't seem so far removed from politics but in light of the way these loons are acting, safety come first. I can't imagine what things will be like in another five or ten years. It's really shocking and disturbing to me.

Nope, sanity, decorum and respect have left the Left...
Exactly. I just learned that an intern for one of the senators leaked home addresses of three senators to a group of protesters some time this past month. The intern was fired for it. Not sure if they were arrested but they certainly should have been.

I just want to point out that Ford's ex boyfriend said that she helped McLean prepare for a POTENTIAL polygraph test. He didn't say McLean actually took the test.

Quote:
“During some of the time we were dating, Dr. Ford lived with Monica L. McLean, who I understood to be be her life-long best friend,” the ex-boyfriend, whose name was redacted from the statement he gave to the Senate, wrote. “During that time, it was my understanding that McLean was interviewing for jobs with the FBI and U.S. Attorney’s Office.”

I witnessed Dr. Ford help McLean prepare for a potential polygraph exam,” he said. “Dr. Ford explained in detail what to expect, how polygraphs worked, and helped McLean become familiar and less nervous about the exam.”

This was in a sworn, written statement to the Senate - not in some press release, by the way.

I always look for an answer to requests like these, but rarely see them. When they do get a response, it's never detailed, just a general "because we don't like him" type of reply. I'll have to check later, but won't hold my breath.

He certainly mocks everything the radical unhinged left stands for, that is true.

You're right, the TDS crew,far left,radical left antifaaaaaa types are in fact laughing stocks but not just around the world, here in the U.S. as well.

Both sides "gaslight" the country and spew misinformation but you know that. It's pure hypocrisy that stops you from admitting it or, do you really believe the Democrats are squeaky clean and pure as the driven snow?

Right - and someone was already hurt at a softball game.

I'm never quite sure which I find the worst.
One difference is there's far fewer right wing loons compared to left wing loons, at least at this point. Due to this latest attack things may change.
I Hope not, we've got enough loons in this nation already...

Arrested and charged with felonies. Worked for Di-Fi and Ms. Jackson Lee.

With all the things the Dems did with using Ford, she should be concerned about her safety. Last thing they'll want is her selling the real truth to some media.

I think they are now. I remember that shooting incident. Pretty sad when we may end up having our lawmakers in need of bullet proof vests. smh
