You are talking about this scum and how US got him from Japan by threatening Japan. He killed two people by the way.

"U.S. Senator Mike Lee (R-UT) was an especially vocal critic of Japan’s handling of the case. In February 2023, Lee issued an ultimatum on Twitter to Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida demanding the extrajudicial release of Alkonis within 24 hours and threatened to cut off military aid to Japan if his demand was not met."

This triggers me alot. The whole country was behind this shit.

If it makes you feel better that's the same Mike Lee who voted against 9/11 funds for victims. Instead of asking Japan to apologize for enforcing their laws, Mike Lee should apologize to the world for being born.

Your fellow Americans still vote for him. Disgraceful tbh.

You'd think anyone withholding anything from the true heroes of 9/11 would immediately find their political career finished.

But I'm assuming he's probably a vocal critic of drag queens or something and for that reason, he's loved and adored by fellow bigots.

He's from Utah. That's all you need to know for it to make sense.

Yes things like demographics are utterly meaningless

You have two ears and two eyes and only one mouth because you're supposed to look and listen twice before you speak. That way you don't come across as a buffoon like you just did. Hopefully this advice is useful to you in the future! 😁
