Where's Walker Percy when we need him?
Via ZH, Adam Schiff is being opposed in the primary by a female impersonator named Maebe A. Girl.
Love in the Ruins. Old Doc Percy would love it. Trans vs trans, identifies vs identifies, confusion confusing confusion.
On one side we have Joe McCarthy identifying as a "Democrat", which makes him immune to the punishment that the real Joe received.
On the other side we have George McGovern identifying as a "womxn", which makes him immune to the punishment that the real George received.
What does Maebe say about Adam?
I strongly disagree with his War Hawk voting record that includes voting for the Iraq War, voting to keep troops in Afghanistan, his support of the Saudi invasion of Yemen (a still ongoing humanitarian crisis), and his votes to increase military spending -which should come as no surprise considering his large political donations from defense contractors and weapons makers.That's a straightforward and coherent statement of non-intervention, even if there's nothing else straightforward about Maebe. It's a lot more coherent than most political noise.
