Look: I don’t like to go that strong on a hed, but this is a “representative” going off on a constituent for asking a basic question.
Let’s not mince words. I have decent gaydar from my time as a raver. I think she assessed the situation correctly, but the reaction was uncalled for. I hope she gets primaried to hell.
Because that’s where someone like this belongs.
And some are refusing to hold town halls. Which would explain why he “ambushed” her. Being fobbed off by her office doesn’t cut it, she needs to face the music. I understand his frustration and so should she.
Here are about 15 examples of MTG ejecting dissenters, two of whom were tased.
Here is the citizens grilling Senator Grassley about the abduction and deportation of the Venezuelans. I bet this guy doesn’t hold.any more town halls (Grassley is the Chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee.)
Grassley is the ranking member of Judiciary. He’s not the chair.

Wikipedia can be wrong. The GOP controls the Senate, meaning Grassley can’t be chair. Let’s please not claim things that aren’t true.
Uhhh… Grassley is R-IA… He’s GOP.

Yep, I fucked up. Apologies.
Why would you think he was a Democrat anyhow? It was a Town Hall video showing…
I was being a fucking idiot. Simple as that.
It’s fine. You were not rude about it. That’s why I am here not Reddit.
Am impressed that you recalled Grassley’s previous role in the committee.
