GOP Congressman wants to kill Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

Post by K Graham »

Before Trump, this would have been considered an impeachable offense and the GOP would've held him accountable.

Rep Gosar's own children disowned him for being too extreme and bigoted.

'No one holds him accountable': Rep. Gosar's sister reacts to doctored tweet he posted about Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

Just how far over the cliff will Trumpism push the GOP?

And he really doesn't even try to deny he is a racist or white supremacist. If anything, he seems to actually boast of it! I have no doubt that he would actually be delighted if someone, inspired by his rhetoric, actually took the initiative to assassinate Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, President Biden, and numerous other elected officials and candidates, both Democrat and Republican, who don't share his extreme views. I am equally sure, though, that he has neither the gall nor the courage nor the stupidity to try to do it himself.

ETA: Seriously, do any of you conservatives or even Trump supporters not see anything wrong with Gosar's extremism and rhetoric?
No precept or claim is more suspect or more likely to be false than one that can only be supported by invoking the claim of Divine authority for it--no matter who or what claims such authority.

The GOP has become a disgrace. "Let's go Brandon" is code for "“F” Joe Biden."

I mean, seriously? If you're a US citizen he is your President not even in office a full year. What could he have possibly done to deserve this? But how much more should the bar be raised if you're a sitting member of Congress? In a post-Trump world, not very high at all.

What a piece of crap (a.k.a. your average GOP politician).
Religion is for people whose existential fear is greater than their common sense.

The god idea is popular with desperate people.

So. Here’s the video in question:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M9HqlYTUNJw

It’s a mix of an Attack on Titan anime mixed with images of illegal immigrants coming into the country. I didn’t see Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s face overlaid on one of the titans, but I’m sure it was in there somewhere (the imagery is a sort of quick flash thing where the editing flips between the anime and real life video quickly, so it’s hard to follow).

As an aside, how damned screwed is Google’s search engine these days? I couldn’t find the video in question, so I had to go to 4chan’s archive and do a search there to find it. Google’s team of search engine censors has completely neutered its effectiveness. Hate it.

It's at about 0:51 to 0:57. I missed it the first go-around too.

Oooooooh! Ok, the editing with the blonde hair threw me off. Were you by chance able to identify the two other women just before this?

Personally, I can't. I tried pausing it at the exact frames quite a few times now, but I keep missing the mark.

According to AZ Central, they are Marjorie Taylor Greene Lauren Bobert.
