A Republican congressman bungled a post mocking a Democratic senators visit to El Salvador by digitally vandalizing an office plaque belonging to a Republican colleague. Georgia Rep. Mike Collins posted a photo on Friday that showed Sen. Chris Van Hollens name on a door plaque. In the place of the constituency was El Salvador.
It was a jab at Van Hollen for taking a trip to the Latin American country this week to speak with his deported constituent, 29-year-old father of three Kilmar Abrego Garcia. Hey @ChrisVanHollen, I went ahead and changed your office plaque for you, Collins wrote.
It wasnt immediately clear whether the image was Photoshopped, or if Collins had actually vandalized Van Hollens plaque, but one telling detail gave the game away.
The photo shows the plaque with Van Hollens name on it, but the Democrat doesnt occupy Senate office SH-110hes in SH-730, according to the Senate website. The plaque that Collins vandalized actually belongs to Republican hardliner Sen. Rick Scott.

It'll help prioritize him in the cleanup process.

And BTW Collins: FUCK YOU!
You took an oath to defend the Constitution. Are you capable of reading it and understanding what it means?

(14,335 posts)People being lazy with photoshop is not a story in my book, and republicans doing minor stupid things on the internet isn't really interesting, thats just a thing that happens at least every third of a second. I didn't learn anything by reading this piece. So i choose to focus on the unnecessary torture of the language.
