Sen. Mike Lee removes posts on his personal X account about Saturday’s fatal attack on a Minnesota lawmaker and her husband after facing fierce backlash from Democrats about the postings.
Replies
He has to pretend he doesn't approve of Democrat lawmakers being murdered. For now.

Would it be too much to ask that Mike Lee gets... never mind. Just wishful thinking.

This is the same dildo working on a provision of the budget bill that will sell off millions of acres of public land for private development. Our country is being sold. Oligarchy + kleptocracy + kakistocracy = today’s GOP

The LDS Church/Utah must tell Gov.Waltz, and the friends and families of 2 Minnesota murder victims what Lee thought was so funny? His party, their Senator, is laughing at murder. His response- to double down? Is this man a Mormon/Utah example of leadership? Recall, ask him to resign. Shame.

Gotta' love the god people, huh? Interesting that Senator Fascist is running with "Marxist" though. Man...that's a word that has taken on a different meaning. But as long as there's an "ist" it sounds scary to the dumb and gutless.

Somehow there appears to be mitigation of his of his posts because he subsequently removed them! Please! That is beside the bloody point! That Lee felt empowered to post his offensive posts is the point! Disgraceful!

RESIST OR DEMOCRACY IS DEAD #TRUMP #MAGA #THERESISTANCE One man censured for protesting a budding dictator while a man who glamorized the killing of two members of an opposing political party was pressured to simply remove his posts. Make that make sense. Where are the calls for censure?

Too late. I will never forget his gleeful, vile celebration of murder. May he never be able to sleep at night.

Brutal cruelty entertains, emboldens and incites the MAGA base and is the foundation for Felon47's campaign marketing strategy. Felon47 understands the key to his ongoing 37% approval rating is his style of finding humor in brutal cruelty.

The fact that you wrote "backlash from Democrats" is partly to blame for the scenario we're in. You're framing this as if it's a red vs blue issue when this is a violence vs peace issue. Do better.
