"Let's extinguish him for good"

 "Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo said Wednesday on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” that former President Donald Trump should be extinguished from politics, which she clarified meant 'vote him out.'"

Yes, by all means, peacefully, through the election process. Nudge, nudge, wink, wink.

Quick, without looking it up, name one thing the Commerce Dept. does.

  2. "Okay, some context please! When I said 'somebody needs to put a bullet in Trump's head,' what I meant was that we need to elect Kamala! It's a well known turn of phrase, a metaphor!"

  4. I read local news about some neighbour who had retired from an illustrious civil service career in 'Interdepartmental communication'. That is, she spent her life 'making communication between departments more effective' (Yeah sure, please fill in this questionaire...)

    Just calling Trump a 'threat' instead of an opponent is bad enough.

  6. USPTO and Census are functions mandated by the Constitution, the others, not.
