This is a death threat against a private citizen of a foreign power by a sitting senator, apply the law for fuck's sake.

Are we doing the homoerotic innuendos on purpose because of Lindsey Graham

Now he will force himself to wear the gimp outfit for 3 days straight as punishment.

[–] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 13 points 2 months ago (2 children)

damn I read that as "Lindsay Graham on fire"

maybe next time.

[–] Akasazh@feddit.nl 3 points 2 months ago

I thought he was literally fired upon.

You know like he just wished for a young woman to happen.

I prefer it were him though, I will read his obituary with glee.

Under fire: some folks are speaking out on twitter.

I'm under more fire when I get called in to talk with the manager.

Lady G found enough time between shining Don's balloon knot with his tongue and being a senatorial Fleshlight to tweet calls to violence? Color me impressed.
