Likening people in the U.S. illegally to “human locusts,” Zuchowski wrote on a personal Facebook account and his campaign’s account: “When people ask me… What’s gonna happen if the Flip-Flopping, Laughing Hyena Wins?? I say … write down all the addresses of the people who had her signs in their yards!” That way, Zuchowski continued, when migrants need places to live, “we’ll already have the addresses of their New families … who supported their arrival!”
Abuse of office for political reasons. There should be a law to kick his sorry ass for this.
Some of those that work forces
Are the same that burn crosses.
Oh SMCF, darling, could you please come up with something more original, and while you’re at it could you make it grammatical, and maybe it could even scan and rhyme? This quotation only sticks in the mind because it’s like the most irritating commercial jingle. Might as well be Only Daisy cottage cheese will do, Satisfying and fresh, so creamy and delish…
Edit: Some folks on the force are kissin’ Trump’s arse, while he’s smoochin’ Putin’s, with prayers for the shootin’s… Okay that’s terrible but I didn’t feel I should just tell you do do something and not even try myself
This might be the single strangest comment I’ve ever read
I am just so tired of that stupid line from that stupid repetitive song. Yes I get that the LAPD is rooted in the KKK, I lived in the Rampart District during its infamous era. But there’s been so many better words written about fascist cops, so why does someone have to necromance this stupid lyric every time?

Amazing how you managed to say nothing valuable with so many words, yet still made it clear you don’t know what yours talking about.
Commercial jingle? Cottage cheese? Where the fuck do you think that quote is from or what it is referencing?
Laughing Hyena
Setting aside the racism there, what exactly is the right’s obsession with Kamala’s laugh? I’ve heard “Cackling” as well.
Should I be inspired to hear that lord and savior Donald Trump never ever laughs - assuming that’s even true?
Laughing Hyena
That’s racism and misogyny, all bundled up into two words. The cackling thing is what they say when they think a woman isn’t meek enough. They particularly say it about women in positions of power, especially if they have the nerve to look happy.
Condemned? Arrested.
If only
The Ohio secretary of state’s office said it did not plan to take any action. “Our office has determined the sheriff’s comments don’t violate election laws,” said Dan Lusheck, a spokesperson for Republican Secretary of State Frank LaRose. “Elected officials are accountable to their constituents, and the sheriff can answer for himself about the substance of his remarks.”
Apparently threats and intimidation don’t count as long as elections are involved.
Fascist piece of shit. Also, I hate this fucking ridiculous argument they take up - that people that support immigration have to put them up in their houses, personally? WTAF?
I’ll accept that if people who vote against abortion access are banned from having them
This would require that the government be able to retrieve your individual voting record, and then stand in the way of your healthcare based on how you vote. Sounds like a neofascist pipedream.
I, for one, don’t accept your authoritarian proposal.
Look, if it’s gonna be a fascist dictatorship anyway…
(To be clear, I’m not saying if the Dems win that’s what it’ll be.)
That’s the point they’re making. It’s absurd
Anyone else feel like we’ve returned to some era where people in positions of power no longer get punished? What the hap is fuckening?
We never really left that era, they were just good at hiding it for a while.
And this is why popular vote may not be a good way of choosing a sheriff. It produces some truly awful pick me candidates who are more interested in political power and grandstanding than serving their office.
Without a strong code of ethics backed up by the law people can get away with a lot of bullshit.
This guy should resign and if not then disbarred for his conduct. It boggles my mind that elected officials have no oversight. Instead he will probably face no repercussions for othering people and denigrating his office.
Honestly I would prefer it be an appointment but every election there should be a confidence vote where if at least 50% of people don’t approve of them they get barred from office
That is an interesting proposal. I think we should spend a lot more time kicking around alternatives and then trying them out.
Surely the people who want these positions of power are rarely the ones that should have them.
I don’t buy that whole trope about how the people that deserve power are the people that don’t want it. That may be true for such a person at first, but if they’re the sort of good person who can recognize policy failures and offer popular solutions, at a certain point it becomes them to fight against those policy failures. And if that person recognizes that public office is the best way to do it, wanting to run for office would be a perfectly natural desire.
For sure, I mean I get what you are saying.
You can’t deny that powerful positions attract bad actors though. How we deal with that is probably more important than sweeping generalizations like the one I made.
