This is a real threat of serious violence with a history of it actually being done, how could it be interpreted otherwise?
They will just claim sarcasm.
"I mean come on... Harharhar. Am I going to chase him down on horseback with my musket? Get real LibErAl MeDiA, it was A jOkE!"
It's like this asshole in Texas years and years ago. He is on stage and says "the only good Democrat is a dead Democrat!" The crowds cheer and then he adds "uhhh... You know the nasty media is going to take that out of context, I mean politically dead."
....yeah yeah. You said what you said and the poeple loved it.
and they will continue to even as the instruments they bore into the heart of this country become covered in the blood of innocent defenseless people they are erasing at a supersonic clip...
And then cheer it on when it happens. MAGA ilk cannot be trusted.
I suggest Mike Johnson should be dragged behind a truck.
Hey! THATS Terrorism! If you DONT want it to be Terrorism you have to Threaten DEMOCRATS!
It was clearly a joke. And I wholeheartedly agree with jokes. Let comedy reign!
GJ mods on holding a random Lemming to a higher legal standard than the Speaker of the House on a "threat" they have no realistic way to carry out.
Man, the rhetoric this past week has really ratcheted up. These assclowns aren't going to be happy when a civil war really breaks out. Seriously, nobody fucking wins a Civil War. Currency tanks, economy goes to shit, people die on both sides, and everybody is afraid to leave their houses in case there's a firefight, or a bombing. That's the America they are asking for right now.
Correction: Powerful people win civil wars. You just know that pricks like Johnson won't be out there fighting; they'll stay in their comfortable mansions separated from the chaos by first-rate security details.
Politicians hide themselves away
they only started the war
Why should they go out to fight?
They leave that role to the poor
(For those who don't know: "War Pigs", by Black Sabbath)
Just like witches at black masses.
Those mansions have addresses. Corporal Molotov can bring the terror to their door.
Molotov was a diplomat (sort of).
And it's better to use an FPV drone with, I dunno, a canister of something good.

One thing about people without empathy is that they actually literally don't care about people who aren't them, dying. It's even worse when they are also believers in zero-sum theory, since then they also think they are better off when more people die.
It's not that they haven't thought about how many people will die, they are actually looking forward to it, it's the point.
Maybe, people get dragged through the streets in civil wars. Nobody is safe during a civil war, as much as you would like to think.
It's always projection with these people
Mike Johnson should be investigated as a pedophile for his interest and sharing of his and his son's porn habits.
At least my call to action has merit. Fuck Mike.
Actually, every Republican representative at any level of government should be tarred and feathered. Thanks for the suggestion, Mike! Can't wait to see you.
I've noticed a pattern of deception lately. This comment came after a comment saying he'd never call for such a thing so that edits can focus on that part and edit out the tar and feather. They do that with Trump all the time, too, like with the Epstein files comment. You'll get the full comment if you look for it, but you know damn well the GoP propaganda is going to select which part of the contradicting message to show.
How Christian of him. Doesn't he also let his adopted son monitor his porn. Maybe this is a part of the new Christian values.
Here's the problem. He's not technically wrong. Would do the country good for a lot of these feckless turncoats and shameless spineless little shits to experience the consequences of their vile policies.
But if we're tarring Newsom, Mike's also taking a hot oily bath.
Says the guy who is just sitting around watching shit go up in flames….
When the pendulum swings and Johnson is facing the people's justice, remember this.
Projecting again?
Mike Johnson should be drawn and quartered, but by drawn, I mean a fishing line around his junk, and then the horses ass should be slapped...and by horses ass, I mean Mike Johnson.
"MAGA" litterally means to return to how it was in the 17th century, right?
Tarring and feathering was still happening in the US until at least 1917, when it was perpetrated against union members in coordination with Tulsa police
