Bullshit. Congress can stop this any time it wants, but it’s controlled by cowards whose slogan is YES KING.

They're probably considering it a win that no one fractured a spine and was paralyzed due to Twitch's negligence this time around.

I got to do some artwork for #ResidentEvilRequiem !

The lighting is amazing!

As I had to point out many times during post #metoo years, no one is owed a big Hollywood contract. No one owed a comedy special. Now: No one is owed a Senate seat. This dude was not murdered & he’s not in jail. He made poor decisions & his actions now are sus & so he doesn’t get the job. The end!

..you don't- you don't get Nazi tattoos again.

We're probably going to find he has M.I.L.H. tattooed on his back with an image of a little toothbrush mustache.

As a Senate candidate, Fetterman guaranteed voters he’d be a reliable Dem, not another Manchin or Sinema.

Constantly. It was his core promise to primary voters.

Liar.

Next step is dropping out of the senate race @grahamformaine.bsky.social

The Democratic Party has very little to say for itself at the moment *except* for the fact that it’s the one national party that’s not chock full of people with Nazi group chats, secret Nazi social media accounts, Nazi friends, or Nazi tattoos.

"You cannot be explaining your Nazi tattoo and defeat a multi-term incumbent."

We were not supposed to find out about the tattoo until he was elected and could start Fetterman-ing us.

I am going to leave the Platner thing alone soon I swear, once I'm done being disappointed at people for whom "no literal Nazi tattoos" is a bridge too far, but I want to point out something is off here about his statements and I think this might be another lie. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

You have to parse his Wikipedia article carefully, because implies he was in service for 8 continuous years with no problem, but that's not actually true. He enlisted in the Marines in 2003 and served for four years before separating in 2007 and going to George Washington University.

While there, he joined the Maryland Army National Guard and served another four years (for 8 total). Now, four years is a standard Marine active duty length for some MOSes (not all; there are a few who have longer commitments) after which you can serve out the rest of your 8 years in the reserves.

But he claims to have gotten the tattoo in 2007. Most if not all Marine MOSes, and especially active combat ones, were under stop-loss orders in 2007. It was a whole Thing!

Stop-loss orders mean that you can be involuntarily required to serve out your entire contractual obligation of 8 years in the branch you enlisted in rather than doing 4 years in the branch and then finishing out in the reserves.

The Marines were just straight up not letting most people finish out the last 4 years of their 8 years in the reserves in 2007. It was a massive national controversy in 2007-2008!

So that timing and trajectory is *highly* suspicious, because to me, that absolutely looks like he got the second most widely known Nazi insignia tattooed on him and *extremely* shortly thereafter, left the Marines and served out in the reserves at a time when almost NO ONE was allowed to.

I'm sorry, but that practically screams "at his annual physical, the examiner identified the SS totenkopf tattoo as an extremist symbol" (and it was and still is in the big book of no-no tattoos) "and got him out of the Marines in order to make him Someone Else's PR Problem".

Also, the idea that fucking Blackwater (which is what he extremely disingenuously calls "working for the state department" here) screens out candidates with extremist tattoos is fucking hilarious. They do not!
