“Mr. Schneider, I believe people who call for public hangings should be stranded on an island with survival possibilities but no possibility of rescue, escape, or communication. Your response is…?”

She replied that the cause “was basically how government was going to run, the freedoms, and what people could and couldn’t do.”
“I think it always comes down to the role of government and what the rights of the people are,” Haley continued. “And I will always stand by the fact that, I think, government was intended to secure the rights and freedoms of the people.”
…
During an interview with a local radio station on Thursday, Haley addressed what happened. “Of course the Civil War was about slavery,” she said. “We know that. That’s the easy part of it.”

If that were the easy part, you could have said it instead of serving up a tossed word salad.

The entire cognitive support system of the GOP seems to be breaking down. Love to see it.

Let’s just hope it results in the implosion of the GOP…

Is anybody following the California Senate race? I just saw Schiff is in the lead, followed by Steve Garvey (really?..does he have any qualifications other than being an old jock who played first base for the Dodgers?), Barbara Lee, and Katie Porter. I like Lee…but she’s 77 years old. Considering this is the race to replace Diane Feinstein…why is the only black woman who’s running the same age as Trump and Biden? Did anyone think this through? Garvey is 75, by the way, Schiff is 63, and Porter is 50. I don’t know why the Democratic Party didn’t just throw their full support behind Porter. She could hold that seat productively for 4 terms. Again, I like Barbara Lee, but she would be 84 years old after just one term. Unless the Democrats want a repeat of what happened with Feinstein, Lee is a one term Senator. It just doesn’t make a lot of sense. Of course, if Feinstein had retired 12 years ago like she should have, Lee could have taken that seat then, when she was about Schiff’s age. Anyway, right now it’s looking like Schiff and Garvey making it to the general election, and I really hate that.
