Thirty-nine percent of Americans say they’re concerned that they or someone in their family will become a victim of terrorism, with 12 percent saying they worry a great deal, and 27 percent saying they worry only somewhat.

    The shit hit the fan when Chaos Crew member Marjorie Taylor Greene insulted Texas Democrat Jasmine Crockett for wearing "false eyelashes," as if the Georgia Sasquatch has room to talk about anyone's appearance. Insults were lobbed back and forth, and Ocasio-Cortez demanded an apology from Klan Mom Marge.
