Arizona Sen. Wendy Rogers censured by Senate after calling for public hangings, attacking Ukraine's president

Thirteen Democrats and 11 Republicans voted for the censure language read on the Senate floor. It was the first time in three decades senators publicly censured one of their own members, and the move was applauded by Gov. Doug Ducey — who just days ago was criticized for his support of Rogers.

Rogers engaged in “conduct unbecoming of a senator, including publicly issuing and promoting social media and video messages encouraging violence against and punishment of American citizens and making threatening statements declaring 'political destruction' of those who disagree with her views. The senator from District 6 has damaged the reputation of the Arizona state Senate by her actions," Sen. Rick Gray said, reading the censure motion.

Rogers, R-Flagstaff, was the first to speak about her censure, citing a "corrupted process" and painting the issue as one of First Amendment free speech rights. She slammed her peers for "colluding with the Democrats to attempt to destroy my reputation."

"I do not apologize. I will not back down," she said. "In the end, I rejoice in knowing I do and say what is right, and I speak as a free American."

1. Jesus Christ, where do these fucking people come from??!?

They are everywhere, what the fuck….

(pardon my French)

2. These people have been around forever, hiding under rocks...

and barstools until given substance by that turnip we fired over year ago.

What really bugs me is who the fuck are those people who vote for these idiots.

3. Other idiots. Mostly.

Basically there are a ton of people (especially Republicans, frankly) who unthinkingly vote for their letter of choice without actually looking into the individuals they are voting for. And on the "R" side of things, there is an increasing percentage of the "just burn it all down, 'cause Jesus" types that willfully pursue people like this.

7. The Republican Party has given them a loving home filled with encouragement and support.

All Republicans are responsible. The modern Republican Party will kill Democracy and usher in 1984.

4. They come from and among us. They are elected to office by people just like them.

If that isn't a motivator to get out and vote for Democrats, nothing will motivate you.

5. Something about the Republican party that attracts these loons.

8. MAGAt robot minds are easily molded into Putin silly putty. nt

9. Wendy "Queen of the Karens" Rogers, is

a seriously nasty, evil, fascist piece of work.

Folks in Arizona need to kick this Karen, who speaks much like a neo-Nazi, to the curb ASAP.
