Bill O’Reilly frequented your bar?

He was seriously counting on Amy Coney Barrett’s glowing eyes.

Yes it’s this one. 4 letter word. Begins with S. The most obvious one.

I woke up and I remembered what else made me angry. It’s a tactic common in shitty people. They pretend to be the victim and accuse YOU of wrongdoing. I feel stupid and I could not have done better against this small wronghood.

Another one rounded up.

Not sure if it’s just ass covering but it’s nice to see one of these guys apologize.

“Nevertheless, I fully recognize Joe Biden is now the President of the United States and that the election is over. Donald Trump is no longer president and I would not have any reason to continue to follow his lead.”

“While I never intended to harm Congresswoman Ocasio-Cortez nor harm any members of the Capitol police force, I recognize that my social media posts were completely inappropriate. They were made at a time when Donald Trump had me believing that an American election was stolen,” he said.

Miller said: “I want to publicly apologize to Congresswoman Ocasio-Cortez and the Capitol police officers. I have always supported law enforcement and I am ashamed by my comments.”

“Following orders…” sounds familiar.

edit: Snark aside, he does seem to be inhabiting reality now, so yay.

Well, that’s a good apology as apologies go. Sounds like he’s back in reality and understands the impact his words and actions had. Give him a fine, lots of community service, and a couple years’ probation.

Threat of federal prison has a way of waking you up.

Word.

To your mother.

I always read these as "I am so very sorry (I was caught) and I (my lawyer told me) now recognize how bad I was. In NO Way did I mean someone should kill someone (even though that is what I Tweeted, and put on Parler, and my FaceBook page).

Exactly. Clarity is not their strong point. Until a lawyer gives it to them.

That is the correct way to read it.

Sure, maybe he got a reality check when threatened with prison time, but the only reason he’s saying this shit is because he failed and is facing said prison time. Rest assured if he hadn’t been snagged by men in blue jackets his position wouldn’t have changed.

Or he’s doing what his lawyer told him to do. I do hope he’s had a change of heart.

Needs more tears.

These people who broke into the Capitol building need a few months of shock time in one of the real prisons.
