Tom Cotton (@TomCottonAR) Tweeted:
I haven't seen this much turmoil at @nytimes since they published a defense of pedophilia. The staff were very upset, multiple resignations, editors' notes, etc.

Just kidding, apparently not a single member of the @nytimes woke mob cared.

Cotton, the man who promotes unleashing US military troops on American soil against American citizens. #cottonhead

Yes, yes, because small town, rural, red neck Republican run police departments have no racial problems. Have you not been paying attention? It’s called systemic. You right wing Trumpers are the only ones denying it and believe a racist wannabe dictator is your salvation.
You need to start a defund the police movement here:floor:

I have no reason to want to defund the police department. Our local law enforcement is top notch so I’m surprised you would suggest such a thing.

This last exchange highlights the problem with Republicans: they don't understand nuance, and complex issues just stifle their brains. “Defund Police” Really? What percentage of Democrats go for that? But that won’t prevent the GOP from turning it into a slogan. Everything, to them, is just "Us or Them". There is no complicated scientific phenomena called climate change. It's just a Chinese Hoax. There's no constitutional assault when you attempt to extort a foreign leader to interfere in a presidential election. It's a Hoax. There's no possibilities that renewal sources are better than fossil fuels. Clean coal is getting cleaner and windmills cause cancer. No reason to have environmental regulations. All regulations are bad. There's no novel covid-19 pandemic. It will be over in a couple short weeks. It's no more dangerous than the flu, Rush Limbaugh declared. Deficits don't matter. Trickle down will save you. Have you noticed that all this is rather simplistic? Have you noticed that the way to MAGA is by tariffs and more tariffs and then more tariffs, and dismantling NATO and the state department. Nothing is complicated. Run up the debt just as much as you want to look like you are winning. The truth is Republicans can't face reality. They can't admit that Robert Mueller and James Comey were career Republican public servants who did outstanding jobs for over twenty years for presidents for both parties. They can't grasp that they all said Mattis, and Kelly, and Tillerman were outstanding cabinet members , and then they suddenly went "bad", overnight? When a progressive confronts reality and it bothers him, he seeks ways to try to change it for the better. When a Republican confronts reality and he doesn't like it, he fabricates an alternative narrative. He invents a fable factory, which is simply a polite way to say a tangle of lies. End of story.

Now that is backed up by facts. Speaking of that, will the WH fortifications come down or stay up through the November election as a last stand?
Don't forget that many months ago tRump promised a "civil war" if he was not re-elected. His base, motorcycle dudes and unsavory characters and other angry folks will bring the USA down and create chaos. He also indicated if he wins a second term then maybe he just ought to be "President for Life." We have a lot to look forward to, especially him doing "Life", the rest of his life, in prison that is. Not sure the next president or Gov of New York will pardon his roasted rump.

You guys crack me up. Constantly trying to tell minorities they are too ignorant to understand just how good they have it and how it’s going to be so much better under the voter suppression, social safety net ending, birther president. I think they can come to their own conclusions how good they have it and what opportunities are available. If you’re so confident you should persuade your party to make voting more accessible.

That was a pathetic piece of nonsense without one iota of facts or data to support any of it. George Floyd has no opportunity because of premeditated, deliberate, transparent murder by members of the police force. What is your opinion of that fact?

Show me the evidence of premeditation and of racism in this specific case. He was murdered by a cop who used an excessive amount of force. I have not seen the evidence that this was a racial attack. Maybe the evidence is out there, but to date, I haven’t seen it. Yes, there is a history of systemic racism in our policing. But we are not living in the era of Jim Crow.

People gargle bleach to stop COVID-19

Please watch the video of exactly what he said. Your showing how stupid one sided people are. Funny how you let the bias media lead you around by the nose. Hope you at least tried the lemon flavored. Ha ha ha ha .

Guardsman Told Barr Protest Was Peaceful Before Violent Attack, Lawmaker Says | HuffPost

“The D.C. National Guard member spoke to Attorney General Barr, who was in charge, and explained that the crowd was peaceful — but troops from federal agencies, including the Federal Bureau of Prisons, remained,” said a statement Sunday from the delegate’s office.
Eleven Secret Service employees were transported to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries. CNN teams were on hand for much of the protests and witnessed protesters throwing objects at officers and pulling temporary fencing away from them.
More than 60 Secret Service officers and agents were injured near the White House this weekend
