It's about time politicians pay for being assholes

Hundreds of alumni and faculty at St. Lawrence University are calling for it to revoke an honorary degree awarded to Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) because of her support for Brett Kavanaugh's Supreme Court confirmation.

CBS News reported on Tuesday that over 1,800 alumni and dozens of faculty at the university are sending letters to university officials demanding the Maine Republican’s honorary 2017 degree be revoked.

Idaho's Fish and Game commissioner Blake Fischer resigned Monday after facing backlash for sharing photos he took with animals he killed during an African hunting trip.

Fischer said in his resignation letter to Idaho Gov. C.L. “Butch” Otter (R) that he "made some poor judgments."

“I recently made some poor judgments that resulted in sharing photos of a hunt in which I did not display an appropriate level of sportsmanship and respect for the animals I harvested. While these actions were out of character for me, I fully accept responsibility and feel it is best for the citizens of Idaho and sportsmen and women that I resign my post," Fischer wrote in the letter.

If that's not his biggest bag of bullshit as a politician, it's probably close.  And note, it's not his acts on the hunt (which he falsely claims are out of character - christ, he shot a giraffe, a leopard, a boar and a whole family of baboons all on one trip!), but his sharing of the photos that he sees as poor judgment.  However, he's right: it's best he resign - which he probably would not have done had the governor not chastised him over his "poor judgments".
