“I’ve never seen anything like this, but I hope it never happens again,” Senate Majority Whip John Cornyn told BuzzFeed News on Thursday. I have an inkling that this is just the beginning."Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned." — William Congreve As a matter of fact, it is an extension of the ongoing culture and race wars that are turning into a civil war, soft so far. Civil wars are so uncivil.And a battle between the sexes is the worst of all worlds. Turning ugly. You really don't want angry women coming after you. Whatever you do, you look bad. Several years ago, a Russian strategist predicted that the US would come apart. It seemed far-fetched at the time but is beginning to look prescient now. This reality show is really getting gripping. Make some more popcorn.Buzz

Update
I don't recall seeing this level of rage at the machine since the Vietnam War protests.
Protesters are angry, they're vocal, and they're sure as hell not there to support Brett Kavanaugh, no matter what President Pussygrabber says. After storming the Capitol building earlier, they went to the Supreme Court building about the time Kavanaugh arrived for his swearing-in ceremony. Angry and inflamed, they ascended the stairs en masse, according to reports, and pounded on the large wooden courthouse doors....If this is anything like a Vietnam era repeat, which was not only about the war, but also involved civil rights and other issues of elite overreach, this is just the warmup.
