Here we fucking go again - or, maybe I should say, still:

Favorite part: “ The pedant in us would like to note that DEFCON 5 is actually the least severe condition, and 2 is significantly worse; it’s like golf, but with nuclear annihilation.”
I call upon you today to resign immediately. Arizona requires a public servant as our senior senator, not one who treats her constituents like servants while enriching herself through bankers, investors, and captains of industry. Quit today, and don't bother running for re-election.
Just imagine how much time you'll have to enjoy your life in the lap of luxury if you don't have to spend so much time governing away the rights of Arizonans.
You have so far departed the notion of government service as a means of giving back to the people by running the government in a responsible and sustainable fashion that you have become a laughingstock. People now hold you up as an example of what happens when politicians become self-serving, self-dealing, corrupt agents of industry. I wish for a moment that you could see yourself as we, your constituents, have come to see you. It's scary; it's sad, and it needs to end.
Off Friday at my work, but I had some stuff to finish that I couldn’t get to during the week. I was the only one in the building except the guys testing the fire alarms. After about the eighth time of the EXTREMELY LOUD alarm going off in the tiny room I was in I started having uncontrollable Tourette’s-like outbursts after each one. I’m imagining that’s what some folks sensory processing disorder is like.
Vamos Ticos! #soccer
We replaced the cone of shame on terminal kitty with a onesie that covers his stapled incision. He seems SO much more comfortable. #Caturday
Anyone else planning to watch the #soccer CONCACAF Gold Cup games in a bit?
The time for action is now. Resign immediately and end the charade of an "independent" candidacy that has no chance and may well lead to Republican control of the Senate.
Do what is right for Arizona, for the nation, for the world. Quit.
Arizona elected you as a Democrat. We specifically elected you to support Democratic ideals, Democratic causes, and to vote for Democratic bills. As shameful as your lack of support for mainstream Democratic legislation (e.g. the minimum wage hike (curtsy), the hike in the capital gains tax rate, the ending of the filibuster, and the John Lewis Voting Right Act) is, ending your tenure as a Democrat is a bridge too far. We've had it, and our support for you has ended.
My weekly letter to Arizona's senior Senator:

Turncoat Senator:
The politics of the Right are demonstrably anti-American, and you have given them aid and comfort by declaring yourself an "independent"; you must resign from the Senate.
