    It’s laughable that he came out today condemning these threats after supporting an insurrection that got multiple people killed.

    It’s absolutely insane that he is even allowed to still be in office let alone run for speaker of the house.

      His condemnation is as vague as can be. It doesnt at all reference that its inner party threats, doesnt say anything about why they are happening or who they are happening to:

      No American should accost another for their beliefs. We condemn all threats against our colleagues and it is imperative that we come together. Stop. It’s abhorrent.”

      The man ginned up his violent supporters to specifically threaten his GOP coworkers to get in line or else, and he wont even tell them directly to stop.

      Just a nothing statement that makes sure it doesnt say fucking anything while it gestures vaguely at the topic.
