Is it weird that Mitch McConnell's voice makes me irrationally angry? I mean of course his face does too but I heard him more than I saw him today.

the republican response speech was the worst speech i've ever seen. i had to turn it off because i couldn't stand the sound of her purposefully flat voice and looking at her fake smile anymore. i don't even think that bitch had a soul or cared about anything she was saying.

well you gotta remember those response are for the vast low information crowd, where its more important to not do anything that the media will spend a week tearing your rear end in a top hat out for, like drinking from a water bottle

"And then I see the disinfectant...where it knocks it out in a minute. One minute. And is there a way we can do something like that. Uhh, by injection inside..." - a Very Stable Genius.
"... and will, to the best of my ability, preserve protect and defend the constitution of the united states."

Is a very different oath from

"To do what I believe is best for America."

I'm listening to the Hardcore History Podcast episode series "Death Throes of the Republic", and the parallels between the end of the Roman Republic and where we are now in American History are fascinating. The issues were the same, a populist message on one side, the redistributionists who advocated for more state power, and the more conservative and wealthy Senate who weren't to eager to share their wealth and were suspicious of the ambitious populist figures (like Julius Caesar) who tended trample the old laws and customs to gain more power for themselves by appealing to the poor. I'm actually wondering if a triumvirate is going to emerge to finally overrun the Republic, and who the Caesar of our times will be to eventually end this farce and turn this country into the fascist dictatorship police state it seems destined to become.
