MAGA Reps End Prayer for Charlie Kirk by Swearing at Dems
A Republican congresswoman yelled and cursed at her Democratic colleagues on Thursday afternoon at the end of a silent prayer for slain conservative activist Charlie Kirk. [...] shouting "Y'all caused this!" at her colleagues [...] "You f---ing own this!" [... her shouting] drowned out Speaker Johnson fecklessly banging his gavel and saying, "The House will be in order! The House will be in order!"
[... She tweeted] "Charlie was shot at an event where he was speaking out against trans shooting violence." [And later tweeted]: "EVERY DAMN ONE OF YOU WHO CALLED US FASCISTS DID THIS.
You were too busy doping up kids, cutting off their genitals, inciting violence by supporting orgs that exploit minorities, protecting criminals, and stirring hate."
[...] Her fealty to the president earned her a parody on a South Park episode last month, in which her character was introduced after character Randy Marsh asked, "What's a sycophant?"
MAGA Reps End Prayer for Charlie Kirk by Swearing at Dems - The Daily Beast
Wow, if they're this mad about the death of one grown man, I can't imagine what they'd be saying and doing if the same thing happened to an actual kid. Or let's say 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19 kids in like maybe a school in a peaceful little town like Uvalde, TX. Or like 20 first graders in Newtown, CT. Imagine what they'd have to say to the survivors of such a shooting, like maybe Parkland, FL How they'd treat the kids who lived through it and were inspired to make change. --Just imagine the outpouring of emotion, earnest sympathy, and good will they would show the dead, the survivors, and the affected families in any such event like that. Imagine what Charlie Kirk himself would have said.
Unfortunately, time just began today so we don't have records of any of that, but just imagine.
