A state senator in Tennessee urinated on himself while taking a field sobriety test, according to reports and video from the incident. Sen. Ken Yager, a 77-year-old Republican representing a district in the north of his state, was pulled over by a Georgia State trooper around 5 p.m. on Tuesday on suspicion his vehicle was involved in a hit-and-run the same day.

    Wow, guys, I’m just so surprised it turned out to be a Republican doing the depraved shit from the headline which failed to mention a party. I tell you, one of these days that heuristic will be wrong, just you wait.

        Democrats do depraved shit every once in a while, but I feel like because it’s so prevalent in Republicans, “Democratic” always seems to crop up in the headline when that happens. Definitely could be confirmation bias, though.
