1. He called an officer a "f—ing f—got.”

2. He ranted about migrants destroying England.

3. He threatened to call the Attorney General.



Wow. That’s quite the video.

He failed the field sobriety test and had an open container in his car, to boot.

so, now we get to understand that when the GOP says "indoctrination" they mean "become educated" or "get exposed to a variety of people and beliefs different from my own and grow from that experience"

+1 I have a friend who grew up in a really conservative community, she went to college and while she remains personally conservative (in the traditional sense, not the political one), she votes exclusively for Democrats now. As she puts it, “I grew up and experienced the world and my worldview is bigger than theirs is now.” She can’t hate on gay people or immigrants or Black people anymore.

"Claudia Schillinger, a former GOP candidate for Pennsylvania Lieutenant Governor and leader of a PAC that fueled conservative opposition to school boards, has been charged with assault after allegedly punching a teenager at a boozy birthday party she threw for her 17-year-old.

As teenagers tried to leave the home, Schillinger — who police said had supplied the more than 15 minors at the party with a basement bar stocked with vodka and rum, played beer pong with them and encouraged them to take shots with her — ordered them to stay.

She then punched one young man in the face three times, according to the affidavit, which said video footage showed Schillinger lunging toward a group of teenagers in the foyer and having to be restrained.”

“A Texas Republican city council candidate is facing felony child pornography charges after being arrested just hours before the elections.

Brad Benson, a candidate for Place #4 on the city council of Granbury, located just southwest of Fort Worth, was arrested on November 6. "I can confirm he was arrested by the District Attorney's Office yesterday and charged with two felony child pornography charges, he should have a bond set today," Hood County Sheriff Roger Deeds told Newsweek.”

Remember Mark Harris, who won a North Carolina congressional election in 2018 only to have the results invalidated because of fraud? Well, he's back, running again, and claiming the earlier election was stolen from him.
