“Please don’t look into the story about my married ex who lit herself on fire after I was done with her. Please elect me and let’s not talk about that at all, that whole thing about my ex-girlfriend *who lit herself on fire and killed herself* is not a big deal.”

>The San Antonio Express-News published a story Tuesday in which another former aide to Gonzales, who was not named, said the lawmaker should have done something to prevent Santos-Aviles’ death. The aide said Santos-Aviles, 35, spiraled into a depression after her husband discovered the affair and Gonzales cut her off. She died after setting herself on fire in September.
Being an absolute piece of shit really is a criteria for Republican nomination!

Absolutely everyone mentioned in this story sounds like a fucking maniac. What do we have to do get normal, stable people involved in politics because this cannot be sustainable.

Who died by “self” immolation.
All these right wing politicians seem like abject monsters.

Causes of death are many and varied – old age, illness, suicide – but out of that long, morbid list, there’s one that people fear above all others: Death by Fire.

I’ve hated this asshole ever since I saw him repeatedly on Face the Nation on CBS shamelessly vomit partisan talking points on the border and immigration leading up to the 2024 election. He seemed like a disingenuous person then, but it’s clear that he is absolutely soulless altogether.

I’ve been seeing the word immolation more and more these days. This is the second time I’ve seen “self-immolation.” Not to my liking one bit.

DISGRUNTLED? What a word to use to describe someone who committed suicide who you may have also had an affair with? This guy is awful.

That’s a hell of a headline right there
“Please don’t look into the story about my married ex who lit herself on fire after I was done with her. Please elect me and let’s not talk about that at all, that whole thing about my ex-girlfriend *who lit herself on fire and killed herself* is not a big deal.”
