QOTD: Disturbing

 

“There will be, I think, substantial evidence that really demonstrates the coordination and the planning and the effort, despite the fact that they understood that Donald Trump lost the election and even once the insurrection began and the violence began, there were ongoing efforts to persuade the former President to stop the violence and call on folks to go home, and he refused to do it. I think the American people are going to learn facts about the planning and execution of this that will be very disturbing.” (our emphasis) -- Rep. David Cicilline (D-RI), previewing the upcoming House Select Committee hearings on the January 6 insurrection. In truth, it will be disturbing to all but alternative reality-based Trumpists, who have called the seditionist insurrection everything from "legitimate political discourse" to a "normal tourist visit."

The televised hearings will begin at 8 p.m. Eastern time on June 9, and promise to be eye-opening, and as Congressman Cicilline said, disturbing.

I had a cool comment ready right up to the point where where you said "alternative reality based trumpist". Now I have to start over. I work with a group of people based in alternative realty. I have it on good authority that after Next November, Biden and Harris will be impeached. Donald Trump will be installed as speaker of the house/president. Then he will choose the method of execution for Biden and Harris. Any member of congress who protests will join them. The Supremes, acting with lightning speed, will endorse his return. The job of rooting out anyone not supporting trump with enough enthusiasm, will fall to the militias and the churches. Ok I added the part about the churches. That wasn't my co workers. That would be my pop in law. He's a prosperity gospel Pentecostal preacher. He isn't going to let anyone do any crucifyin' without proper supervision.

seafury - you need to move away from Crazytown and its inhabitants and don't leave a forwarding address!! Seriously, what you describe as your surroundings (including your father in law) is pretty frightening!
