Senate CONDEMNS Trump's DESPICABLE anti-FBI conduct in SCATHING UNANIMOUS RESOLUTION

The United States Senate unanimously adopted a resolution offered by Dick Durbin that condemned threats of violence against FBI agents, singled out Trump’s reference to “vicious monsters” at FBI and said agents were searching Mar-a-Lago for records “owned” by the United States. This scathing resolution was passed under-the-radar and was reported on by few journalists.

Slip this in under the radar in the hope that he'll see a "UNANIMOUSLY CONDEMNED" headline and throw a tantrum about "RINO" senators not sticking up for him.

Almost impossible to believe that Josh Hawley, Rand Paul, Tommy Tuberville and many others who have spoken with complete contempt on fqx voted for this resolution. Since this resolution does not fall into the talking points of the media's constant Cavalcade of Hate it is no surprise that there has been about zero coverage. MSM is owned by the billionaires who have bankrolled "stop the steal" and have attempted to destroy voting rights and are the corporate overlords of media....

Perhaps unanimous means there were 0 'No' votes, not necessarily that it passed 100-0?

Or they just failed to show up for the vote at all because they were having coffee with the freedom caucus. EW! I'm having a hard time finding the list of who actually voted on this resolution. Maybe later today it will be available.
