When I opened the Washington Post this morning, this is what I saw:
Well, seeing it live and in person was much much worse than you think. Picture this: in order to go on their sycophantic field trip Mike Johnson pushed an Oversight Committee meeting back until 8 pm… by which time the MAGA Republicans came back and instead of governing they were rowdy, disruptive, and acting like they had just gone to a frat party – not the first criminal trial of a former U.S. President.
Look, I’ve been around the block when it comes to Congress but I have never seen anything as distasteful and shameful as this. We’re sinking to new lows every day under the Republican majority and it’s time to put a stop to it.
I’ve got a primary election in a little over a month, and we need to make sure our district’s voice in Congress is willing to stand up to Republicans like those in the House right now.
