Hortman joined Republicans as the lone Democratic vote in support of a provision preventing adult undocumented migrants from accessing the state’s low-income health insurance system.

Hortman defended her vote as part of a larger compromise to pass a budget in the narrowly divided chamber.

"I did what leaders do, I stepped up and I got the job done for the people of Minnesota," she said.

Hortman was killed four days later.

The only principled liberal. She said people don't need healthcare and then she died.

Damn, that's kind of ironic.

This person and her family can honestly go pound sand.

I'm glad they have to deal with death because of how much they support it.

I hope people send them lots of "fuck you, you deserved this" cards.

I'm highly doubting that the motivation of the shooter was that he supported free healthcare. The suspected shooter worked for private security, had US military ties, and owned a cop car.

[-] happybadger@hexbear.net 45 points 1 day ago

I don't mean that. To me he's chud-coded. I just mean that I'm happy she's dead for that reason.

[-] dead@hexbear.net 24 points 1 day ago

I am clarifying because right wing twitter have declared the shooter to be a left wing radical. I'm suspecting right wingers will create conspiracy theories similar to the David DePape situation, where they claimed that the attack was motivated by a lover's quarrel.

Seems he also wanted to kill Ilhan Omar and a bunch of abortion rights activists. Seems the only kind of healthcare that was involved in his thinking was about preventing woman from access to it.

yeah ofc, but also rip-bozo

[-] Le_Wokisme@hexbear.net 31 points 1 day ago

It's so annoying being local to this news right now, because the liberals are UPSET and are revising history as if she was a saint.

We must reach across the aisle to heal the partisan divide that's tearing this great nation apart

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
