   Genuinely curious about @eriner ‘s take here, would love some feedback. Maybe I’m an asshole, but I don’t mourn these politician’s passing. Thieves of the taxpayer, in my mind.

     @NBS nah you're good; I celebrated when McCain died, the corrupt warmongering fuck.

     Some politicians go into office with principle and ideals, but almost all exit office (one way or another) as sick, corrupt shitheels. The number of exceptions to that rule in the last fifty years American politics can be counted on less than half of one hand.

     They can't hear you speak ill of them if they're dead, and the corrupt ones didn't listen or care when they were alive. Fuck 'em.

     On the one hand I like to follow the Latin saying, “De mortuis nil nisi bonum.” Loosely translates to: “Never speak ill of the dead.”

     On the other hand, these corrupt politicians, on BOTH sides, like Feinstein have stolen taxpayer dollars for decades through various funding and taxation mechanisms to better themselves. Feinstein recently sold two of her vacation homes and her estate is worth hundreds of millions of dollars. On a salary of a few hundred thousand a year.

     Fuck these people.
