What sickened me most about last night

It sickened me that as Al Green was escorted out for having a sign that read, "Black.People are not Apes "Republicans chanted USA, USA, USA.

Are we that far away from the cheering Reichstag?

Don’t let it be forgot! And I think the SOB should’ve been censured. Whatever that means.

While is it true that the Republican members of Congress are such a gaggle of mediocrities that in normal times they would never get any notice in the history books (not even in a footnote of a footnote), I think they will get attention of historians (and psychologists) trying to understand how human beings born in a free country such as the USA can turn into such servile pathetic cowards.

But no lying should be number one on the rule list. Our time is wasted and souls are dented by listening to that monster! Hold the president accountable!
