Good. Now they're learning the part of the book where Frankenstein fears what he created.

Shame, i know there were a lot of people looking forward to his event being cut short too!

I've been saying they should feel fear. Look what makes them fearful.

The funny thing is that they're both such generic rightwing grifters that I can't keep those two separate in my head. When I first heard about Kirk getting capped my first thought was "Was this a anti-semetic attack?" quickly followed by "Wait, am I thinking of the right guy?" (spoiler alert, I wasn't)

See? It's not all bad

It’s ok when we get shot, but oh no when it’s one of them…

Did he gish gallop into the sunset?

I guess since conservative podcasters have flooded the market, there’s more to choose from. Let’s all hold hands and pray to St. Luigi.

Aww, they could've capped two bigots in one day. Shame.

Hahaha coward chickenshit. All they need is a good guy with a gun, right? 😂

I’ll bet that opened his eyes a bit. I’m sure a few others are a wee more paranoid now as well.

Go back and watch that video of Taco standing outside talking about how safe DC is, as he's surrounded by others and Secret Service everywhere.

Hegseth was standing nearby. Look at his face, look at how his eyes dart all over the place, like he expects there is a book depository nearby...and that was BEFORE this shooting.

I think they were all already paranoid as hell because they must know how unpopular all of them really are.

Hegseth was scanning around in paranoia thinking that sobriety might sneak up on him.
