These idiots. The best they can do is claim that Tulsi Gabbard is some kind of “Russian agent!” and that oh, no, “some rightwingers like her.” But what do these rightwingers or libertarians like about her? That she’s (relatively) antiwar! That is supposed to be self-evidently horrible?

The Slobbering Beast of Power

Beneath the uniforms, costumes of power or the suits of fashionable exuberance lurks naked flesh. Often flabby and unimpressive. The victims of such know the putrid stench on their breath, the sickly odour of sweat, the repulsive effluent of discharge as it penetrates...
