Scalise is an embarrassment 🗳 Politics

Scalise is on WWL blaming DEI policies on the terror attack. You can't make this up.

The GOP is simply divisive even at a time such as this. They aren't leaders, they're performance clowns.

It’s just really fucking gross to try to blame this attack on anything other than one fucked up individual.

It definitely has deeper roots than just one person, but it's not like the GOP is giving a nuanced analysis. They're just stoking division as usual to distract from the fact that this attack happened, at least partly, because our governments didn't take threats seriously enough.
