The almost-skirmish was snuffed out, however, before it could even begin by the 82-year-old senator.

    That gop senator is little bitch Markwayne Mullin.

    Here he is cowering during the “peaceful tour” of Jan 6.

    Whatever you do, please don’t share that with him on Twitter or email him with it.

      Lets be fair, if he was under a desk because of a major earthquake, would you use that against him as well to tarnish his reputation?

      Its not like the Congress’ rule book for an armed insurrection breaking in has a section called “duck and cover” in it. You figure this shit out as you go, in real time. And taking cover is a reasonable thing to do.

      I think the guy acts like a meathead, I’m no fan of his, but to use this picture is something of a cheap shot on your part.

        If a guy says, “earthquakes are no big deal. I don’t see what the fuss is about.” and then goes to duck and cover it’s worth pointing out their foolishness. It’s not about his actions on Jan 6,which were completely understandable. It’s about his actions on all the other days.

          Not disagreeing with you overall, but the image associated with the comment I replied to was a very specific moment in time.

        Where is the handbook that reads “after your pansy ass is done being scared, go to a press conference and deny it all.”
