He chose to be a senator, if he feels it’s unsafe he can find a “safer” profession.
Do you think that an elected official might have a higher risk of being threatened than a private citizen?
No I don’t. There are a TON of elected officials that would not benefit from this change, so this isn’t so much protecting elected officials as it’s Cruz being too much a a fucking man child to handle criticism from the people he’s supposed to serve.
If you weren’t implying some sort of similarity, why bother making the comparison?
If a senator or representative feels threatened, they can call the police or find security, just like the rest of us. Especially in an airport, they are everywhere.
“Let me wheel out a ridiculous comparison to make my point.”
One is a head of state, the other isn’t. And this isn’t a party issue which you’ve implied in several comment. Nobody in congress should receive protection unless they are paying out of pocket.
I don’t care which party they belong to. They waste enough tax money with their bullshit. They can pay out of pocket.
Fuck that. They should pay out of pocket if they want bodyguards. They get enough shit on the publics dime. He could also try not being a piece of shit and people wouldn’t fuck with him.

Which issues compared to which time frames? Sources?
Correcting a factually incorrect statement isn’t fucking pedantic. Considering an election is what put this asshat in power, it seems like very relevant information to the post and topic broadly.
If I want to be pedantic I can drill down into a dictionary definition (actually pedantic btw) and make my point too.
Not sure that I agree that using the correct term is pedantic. Saying he was reelected on Tuesday is a factually inaccurate statement. He became the nominee or candidate.
I feel that with the general turmoil of US politics in recent years, providing correct information is becoming increasingly important. How are people supposed to take part in a system they don’t understand?
Even if OP was saying it flippantly, the next person reading it may not know that.
They become the nominee or candidate.
That may be true, but he still wasn’t reelected on Tuesday.
It was a primary. He didn’t get reelected.
It was the republican primary for the election. He didn’t get reelected.
Nurses will now be allowed to perform some medical procedures previously reserved for doctors, and offered immunity from potential lawsuits linked to their new scope of work, Second Vice Health Minister Park Min-soo said.
So not only are the “empowering” nurses to do things the aren’t authorized to do, they won’t be liable for any harm they cause.
Maybe the government should meet the doctors demands instead of trying literally everything else
I invite you to look at the voting record for this (or last several) congress and show me a intra-GOP divide. The “core” votes with the “fringe” regularly because they place party above country.
Reads more like they are trying to create the illusion of some divide between the assholes at CPAC and the GOP as whole. They are 100% the same group
Hmm, could you say it’s a stereotype based on nationality or race?
You have a source for this claim?
