    Terrible headline, I assumed the statue was suggesting the people involved are shit. The fact that it’s on a desk makes it very different, this is despicable.

      I mean, it happened.

      Paragraph 17. (Link opens justice department public PDF on the issue.)

      Edit: And it is suggesting as you said. Mrs. Pelosis name is there as it was her desk. (I think she is retired and I mean her no disrespect.)

        Yeah if the point of the statue wasn’t clear, the blatant sarcasm of the writing on the plaque on it gives it away.

        Kinda says a lot about this country when someone can make a statue of a turd on a desk and people aren’t sure if it supports the desk poopers. Honestly if that plaque wasn’t on the side of it I would bet a lot of January 6’ers would share it thinking it was made by their team. Hell a lot of them probably still will on account of not being able to read.
