This would be hilarious if it were a joke. As reality, this is just horrific. Seems about right for the current timeline. :(

    Are they appointing the most incompetent people they can as an insult to America? It sure looks that way from the outside. This is kakistocracy.

    Compared to Martin, there was little push backs from Congressional Democrats in response to Pirro's selection.

    Given that 0 of them voted for her, what would you have them do?

    I would have them do what republicans do when they’re not in power- they seem to get what they want regardless.

    I mean, middle aged Korean legislators were in the streets grabbing assault weapons out of the hands of law enforcement?

    So, what do I expect? Physical resistance. Throw a punch. Get arrested. Storm a building. Show up armed.

    If you think the US is getting out of this without a LOT of people breaking a LOT of laws, you’re in for a very rough time.

    They don't have majority though.

    I think in the past 2/3 was needed to confirm.

    When has that ever stopped the chuds from getting what they want?

    It’s so fucking bizarre to watch your country be taken over by people who are proving every day that your laws don’t matter and then listen to Americans on social media insist that the law doesn’t allow them to fight back. Absolute cowards.
