I notice you never answer the question. How about this one:

 

Was the Russia brouhaha against Trump a lie?

The guy yelling "People are going to die" during Senator Ernst's town hall reminds of the 2009 yell in a similar republican town hall meeting:

“Keep your government hands off my Medicare,” by a speaker at a town hall meeting in Simpsonville, S.C., in July on the government-created Medicare program.

Yes, and anyone with critical thinking skills recognized this. Then again, higher thinking would also note first, the bad PR image involved and ... observed that , while we all will die, Joni with her privileged Congressional healthcare coverage stand a better than average chance of living longer than those from whom she is taking Medicaid.

 

When I first heard her, a sitting US senator, say this, I thought it had a Jim Jones aspect to it.

Also after saying it she repeated "for heaven's sake" several times.  

This is the woman who, in her first Senate campaign, used to talk about how she castrated hogs while growing up on a farm.  It drew a lot of national attention.  Maybe the woman who boasted of shooting her dog was trying to outdo her.

How many in her audience were paid Democrat shills and activists? Is that a hard question?

 

 

It doesn't fit the narrative Trump haters live and breathe for....they can't answer any question unless it starts with "Oh yeah, but Trump blah, blah, blah".  Amazing the amount of rent free space President Trump lives in their heads.

Do you mean like those Republicans that Musk offered a million dollar prize if they could prove they voted for his choice of candidate?

Or maybe it was all those antifa shills that stormed the capitol on jan 6 as surely no maga thugs would do something so disgusting?  Awfully nice of Trump to then pardon all those antifa folks after they were tried and convicted in court....oh yeah forgot...it wasn't antifa at all....it was maga thugs so beating up cops is ok and in fact very patriotic.

Transcript of Ernst apology from DesMoines Register:

 

"Hello everyone. I would like to take this opportunity to sincerely apologize for a statement that I made yesterday at my town hall," she began, before describing the incident.

 

"I made an incorrect assumption that everyone in the auditorium understood that yes, we are all going to perish from this Earth," she said. "So I apologize. And I’m really, really glad that I did not have to bring up the subject of the tooth fairy as well.

 

"But for those that would like to see eternal and everlasting life, I encourage you to embrace my lord and savior, Jesus Christ," she added.

GOP Sen. Joni Ernst gives mock apology to lefty critics for acknowledging ‘we all are going to die’ during Medicaid argument

 

Iowa GOP Sen. Joni Ernst has delivered a backhanded apology for acknowledging everyone dies during a town hall that included frustration over Trump Medicaid reforms.

 

“A woman who was extremely distraught screamed out from the back corner of the auditorium, ‘People are going to die!’ 

 

Ernst also ripped into the “hysteria that’s out there coming from the left” over the blowback to her comments about death.

I don't see how Medicare and Medicaid are the same.

where did you see that? Where is New Yawk? Is that a way to make fun of the way New Yorkers talk? Got a problem with NYers?

"what ya can't see can't hurt ya" 

Like I said they left it out -- but if the outside agitator was from NY after a few syllables, everyone would know.
