This is comedy with very sharp teeth
9 out of 10 Americans are for tighter gun laws? Here's that douchebag holdout: https://t.co/Mzjwh88v2I— Full Frontal (@Full Frontal) 1466024557.0
The filibuster initiated by Connecticut Senator Christopher Murphy is over, and with it, comedienne journalist Samantha Bee’s live tweeting of the 15-hour long event.
The face of Full Frontal was running commentary like this filibuster was her Game of Thrones. As we’ve come to expect from the sharpest host in late night, she was incisive, funny, a little bawdy and entirely on point with her tone. So here are Bee’s best tweets from Senator Murphy’s marathon political stand.

I hope whichever bar the Republican senators are in right now has the TV tuned to C-SPAN2. Cuz this WILL be on the fucking quiz. #Enough— Full Frontal (@Full Frontal) 1466030104.0
If a filibuster demands common sense gun laws for 5 hours, but CNN is just airing aerial shots of parking lots, does it make a sound?— Full Frontal (@Full Frontal) 1466025890.0

If this goes on long enough, Murphy may become the first Senator to piss himself in Congress since Orrin Hatch did like an hour ago. #Enough— Full Frontal (@Full Frontal) 1466020598.0

Meanwhile, Donald Trump whipped up the devout racists, isolationists, xenophobes, bigots and fear-mongers in his discipleship by calling for surveillance of mosques. So if you smelled burning garbage in your immediate vicinity, that’s just the odor of Donald Trump eminating from your screens.
