Oh, you want me to vote to stop fascism?

The real joke of the Democratic Party is running Coal Baron Joe Manchin to replace former KKK member Robert Byrd, on the grounds that only these two people can keep the US Senate free of fascism.

Meanwhile, you've got guys like Ted Cruz and Josh Hawley glad-handing J6ers minutes before they storm the capital, and Biden's AG just kinda shrugs and says "Nothin' we can do! There's not a single law on the books that makes conspiring to overthrow the federal government illegal."

“Nothin’ we can do! There’s not a single law on the books that makes conspiring to overthrow the federal government illegal.”

Funny thing is as soon as you or I plan that and they smell any hint of socialism/leftism in our language suddenly they'll have 35287253381 laws that they'll throw all of at us for a combined prison sentence that's longer than the eventual heat death of the universe.
