Sen. John Kennedy, R-La., repeatedly suggested a leading Arab American activist is a Hamas supporter when she testified Tuesday at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on hate crimes, and he told her she should hide her “head in a bag.”
The activist, Maya Berry, said repeatedly that she did not support Hamas and was “disappointed” by the minuteslong exchange toward the end of a hearing called “A Threat to Justice Everywhere: Stemming the Tide of Hate Crimes in America.”
Disavowing Hamas is entirely pointless. Racists will accuse you of being Hamas no matter what.
When the entire population of Palestine is described as “Hamas”, all “Condemning Hamas” amounts to is blaming civilians for their own massacre. It’s just racist people demanding you be as racist as they are before they let you speak.
Besides that, supporting Hamas is the only moral position.
The most frustrating part is that the witness literally answered his questions. She wasn’t even replying in non-answers like others who try to avoid directly answering a question, and he still kept on accusing her of the opposite. Ultimate grandstanding.

I’m trying to think of the most painful and apropos thing that could happen to Kennedy, but I can’t come up with anything suitable enough.
EDIT: I’ve got it! He gets beaten to death by Nazi proud boiz with Baseball bats.
This guy is the freaking worst.
The witness, later that day.
That’s a pillow, not a bag.
Baby steps
What a repulsive human being.
No. YOU hide your head in a bag, Senator. You’re an embarrassment to your state.
