That thin, high pitched scream that you vaguely hear is Mitch McConnell, as he contemplates the night before the Pennsylvania and North Carolina primaries and wonders if anybody electable is going to get on the GOP ballots, or if it’s all fringe crazies from here on out. So do we, Mitch, so do we all wonder.
Kathy Barnette is making headlines right and left. She accused Donald Trump of being surrounded by “bad advisors,” that should go over well, and CNN has discovered this afternoon that Barnette bused three loads of protesters into Washington, D.C. on January 6, after NBC confirmed this morning that Barnette was out marching in the streets herself that day.
Terrific image the night before an election, to go on record as participating in a coup d’etat against the government that you claim you want to be an elected official of.
“You’re gonna see a bunch of pissed off patriots that are like, ‘We’re not having this anymore,'” Barnette told radio host and conservative activist Ed Martin on January 5, 2021. “You’re gonna have to hear our voices. And so I’m so very grateful that Americans are not rolling over. Democrats are used to, you know, being loud, whining, calling us names and then our side of the aisle, simply roll over and play dead. I am so proud that there are an innumerable number of Americans who are just like, no, we are not rolling over. We’re not going back to sleep. You’re gonna have to hear us.”

“I believe most people realize that this is our 1776 moment,” she later added. “And I’m so grateful to God that back then we had a number of people who were not wimps, weenies and punks, and they stood up against some insurmountable odds. And right now I think a lot of people are looking back to that and recognizing that we are not wimps, weenies or punks, we’re gonna stand up to some — what seems like insurmountable odds. And they’re gonna have to listen to our voices.”
Here’s another jewel, where she calls Democrats “demons in drag.”
In a since-deleted tweet from the day before the Capitol riot, Barnette boasted of her upcoming attendance at the rally. “Democrats are Demons in Drag… They look like fellow Americans,” she wrote. “But, those Democrats who believe the voices of MILLIONS of Americans should be forced, shamed & bullied into silence carry an agenda straight from the pit of hell. PERIOD #Resist #WildProtest #Jan6th #DCProtests.”
Barnette claims she lost the congressional race she ran in 2020 because it was stolen from her. She’s the last person we need in either chamber of Congress. She bused in protesters January 6. Who knows how her actions contributed to the injuries or deaths that occurred, not to mention the physical destruction of government property?
Let’s see who wins the primary tomorrow. The best case scenario is that this senate seat will flip blue and wouldn’t that be loverly?
She sounds like she’s got delusions.
