You’d think after years of lectures from Democrats about “restoring dignity to public office,” the last thing we’d be watching in 2025 would be their own candidates and prosecutors getting hauled away in handcuffs like extras in a bad reality show. But here we are.
And honestly, it’s getting harder to tell whether the national Democrats are the wildest circus act—or if their local officials are trying to one-up them in a contest of pure lunacy.
Take South Carolina gubernatorial candidate William “Mullins” McLeod. Over the weekend, footage surfaced of his May arrest: strutting around in nothing but underwear and shoes, shouting racial slurs, threatening to knock his opponent’s teeth out, and introducing himself to police as—wait for it—God. Oh, and sometimes Superman. Because why pick one?
This is the man Democrats just tapped to run for governor. And no, he hasn’t dropped out. Apparently, running the state while pretending you’re a Marvel character is still on the table.
But while McLeod was out doing his superhero routine, Rhode Island decided to bring its own brand of crazy to the party. Enter Devon Hogan Flanagan, a Special Assistant Attorney General who thought the words “I’m an AG!” were some sort of magical forcefield against accountability.
Spoiler: they weren’t.
Bodycam footage from Newport Police tells the story. Officers were called to The Clarke Cooke House after staff couldn’t get two customers—Hogan Flanagan and her equally loud friend, Veronica Hannan—to leave. By the time police arrived, both women were in full meltdown mode.
“Don’t you know who I AM?” Hogan shrieked, repeating “I’m an AG!” so many times you’d think she was auditioning for a new drinking game. Her friend chimed in with a string of expletives and the ever-helpful reminder: “She’s a lawyer!”
The officers? Completely unfazed. One finally shot back with the line of the night: “Good for you. I don’t give a s***.”

Now, any teenager at a house party knows what to do when the cops show up: you shut it down and go home. But apparently, if you’re a Democrat prosecutor, the preferred method is berating officers, threatening them, and trying to lecture them on “protocol” that doesn’t actually exist. Hogan insisted cops were required to turn off their bodycams if she asked. Wrong. She claimed she was too important to arrest. Wrong again.
Her friend was even worse:
You can’t script a better example of Democrat hypocrisy than this circus in Rhode Island. Assistant Attorney General Devon Hogan Flanagan, a supposed upholder of the law, turned into a sloppy, screaming mess the second she was held to the same standard as everyone else.

In the end, both she and her friend got a free ride in the back of a squad car, charged with willful trespass, and immortalized on YouTube forever.
The only surprise? Neither one got tased, which—judging from how many times “I’m an AG” was shouted—must have taken saint-like patience from the Newport PD.
And this isn’t a one-off. Increasingly, the phrase “Democrat politician arrested” is popping up in headlines like it’s a weekly series. If they’re not threatening cops, they’re stripping down in public, screaming about being God, or in Eric Swalwell’s case, just waiting for the inevitable day when his own meltdown hits bodycam.
Democrats love to sneer about Republican “extremism.” But when you line up the footage—half-naked gubernatorial candidates, drunk assistant AGs screaming at police, and all the rest—the question isn’t whether they’re fit for office. It’s whether they’re fit for anything besides late-night comedy reels.
Maybe acting? But only in movies set inside a padded room.
And yet, in deep blue states, you know what’s coming: soft landings, slaps on the wrist, and a media blackout so voters don’t see just how unhinged their so-called “public servants” really are.
For the rest of us, the bodycam clips will have to do. Because sometimes, the best way to understand the modern Democratic Party is to watch what happens when the party’s over and the cops arrive.
