From the Advocate, “California Gov. Gavin Newsom has tapped out Democratic strategist Laphonza Butler to fill the Senate seat held by Dianne Feinstein, who died on Friday. Butler will now be the first LGBTQ+ person of color to serve in the U.S. Senate. She will serve the remainder of Feinstein’s term, which ends next year.” Newsom is the man not only for the person he appointed but, more importantly, for how quickly he did it. I fully expected dumbass Democrats to require decorum and reverence for Feinstein first. I fully expected idiot Democrats to demand that people should wait after an appropriate amount of time of mourning before filling her seat while claiming that this is not the time for politics. F*** that! Clearly, Newsom had someone in mind before Feinstein died, and he — unlike most other f***tard Democrats — was quick to act! Before she’s even buried! Thank God we have one Democratic leader with f***ing balls. Now, if only the rest of the party could follow in his footsteps. (That’s a pipe dream, I know.) Welcome to stupid America!
