You always have to wonder how low Democrats will sink to get what they want. It's a shame.
“Cosko admitted to “doxing,” the act of posting personal information about another individual online. He said the goal was to “threaten and intimidate” the senators and their families.
He posted the personal addresses and phone numbers of Sen. Mike Lee of Utah and four other Republicans who were key figures in the confirmation fight over Supreme Court Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh.
Prosecutors said Cosko posted the information on Wikipedia during and after the Sept. 27, 2019, hearing on sexual assault allegations against Justice Kavanaugh.”

It's the party of slander and all forms of degeneracy. Expecting better from democrats will only ever lead one to disappointment.
There are good people who are Democrats. I can only imagine how frustrated they must fee. This is not their grandfather's Democrat party. I hope the good people in the Democrat party take control.
The same can be said for both major parties; neither has a lock on extremism and both are moving further from center and further from actually working to govern the country.
Here is one Mike,There is an honest Democrat out there, former Governor of Nebraska, Bob Kerrey, who was once a Democrat presidential hopeful. He says what I've been saying all along, the leaders of this Democrat Party are delusional. Read his OpEd.

Where have these Democrats gone? Is he the only one to speak out?
From your link (which was very good, by the way) - "What it may not survive is distrust of our system of justice. At the moment that distrust is deep and wide."
This could not be stated more succinctly, and is a large part of why Donald Trump was elected to the highest office in the world (expanded from just the justice system to all of our political and government systems).
And the answer being proposed? To expand the process as far as possible; to use the system, whether justice, financial or other, to cause as much political harm as possible to political opponents (the person the people elected to "clean up the system").
Makes great sense, doesn't it?
Absolutely, the Democrats are just as interested if not more interested (because they continually fail to get Trump) in destroying anyone associated with him to send the message that no one should ever help pull a Trump on them again or the FBI will destroy their lives! They have been running things so long they all are delusional and the Mueller report has actually pushed them over the edge of sanity!
At the time of his arrest, Cosko was working as an unpaid intern for Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, D-Texas, who fired him soon after. He was previously employed as a computer systems administrator in the office of Sen. Maggie Hassan, D-N.H., a job that gave him "intimate knowledge of, and broad access to" the computer systems in Hasan's office, according to court records. But he had been fired from Hassan’s office in May 2018 for failing to follow office procedures.
After the firing from Hassan's office, Cosko became angry and repeatedly burglarized the office without being detected, court records said. He copied gigabytes-worth of data, including dozens of user names and passwords belonging to Senate employees and "contact information for numerous sitting U.S. senators," according to court records.
Cosko was arrested Oct. 3, 2018, one day after a staffer discovered him working on a computer in Hassan's office, where Cosko was not authorized to be. A Hassan staffer confronted Cosko and ordered him to leave. Cosko sent the staffer threatening emails within minutes of the dispute, warning he would release embarrassing information in retaliation, according to a police affidavit.
“If you tell anyone I will leak it all. Emails signal conversations gmails. Senators children’s health information and socials,” Cosko wrote, according to court records.
A search of Cosko’s home and storage unit turned up plans to target other lawmakers and a checklist for concealing evidence of his schemes, according to court documents.
The search also uncovered powders that tested positive for cocaine and methamphetamine.
This reminds me of the ex DNC staffer who made fun of Mitch McConnell for stumbling. Full well knowing McConnell had polio as a child and suffers some paralysis due to that.
The religion of liberalism makes people do crazy things.

Since they walked out, their actions should have consequences. They should amend their process so that a quorum can be formed from present legislators and let the vote go through. I'm fed up with this crap and am surprised that the Wisconsin citizens allow it. The state senators...
