State Sen. Michael Bohacek, a Republican from a deep-red district, said in a Facebook post that he would be a "no" vote on the state's 2026 redistricting package after Trump referred to Walz as "seriously retarded" in his Thanksgiving Day social media post. Bohacek, whose daughter has Down Syndrome, added: "words have consequences."

"I will be voting NO on redistricting," he said, suggesting that Trump "can use the next 10 months to convince voters that his policies and behavior deserve a congressional majority."

Trump referred to Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) as "seriously ------ed"

As is often the case, a word that was used as a euphemism (in this case, for "mentally challenged") is now considered offensive.

------ (pejorative)
------ was previously used as a medical term. The verb "to ------" means 'to delay or hold back', and so "------" became known as a medical term in the late 19th and early 20th centuries to describe children with intellectual disabilities, or ------ed mental development. For context, until the 1960s, the terms moron, idiot, cretin, and imbecile were all genuine, non-offensive terms used, including by psychiatrists, to refer to people with mental intellectual disabilities and low intelligence. These words were discontinued in that form when concerns arose that they had developed negative meanings, with "------" and "------ed" replacing them. After that, the terms "handicapped" (United States) and "disabled" (United Kingdom) replaced "------" and "------ed". Disabled is now considered a more polite term than handicapped in the United States as well. This trend was dubbed a "euphemism treadmill" by Steven Pinker.

Or, as stated by noted SCOTUS justice Oliver Wendell Holmes in a Supreme Court decision:
Three generations of imbeciles are enough.

My quote of all references to the R word were bleeped.

I hope this doesn't "slow" the Chinese from abandoning bamboo scaffolding to opt for fire retardant options like steel.

*** Another Republican State Legislator Targeted by MAGA Terrorists ***

"Indiana state Sen. Jean Leising (R) said she was the newest victim of threats after refusing a demand from Dummkopf Trumpf to redistrict the state ahead of the 2026 midterm elections."

I'm glad the FBI and DHS counterterrorism expert Thomas Fugate (22) are on top of these threats to lawmakers.
