She is a part of American history. Hearing from her about her would be a treasure.

(Many others that would take an extensive amount of time to list including committee members): thanks for doing the best you can to hold everyone accountable for January 6, there’s a lot behind the scenes that isn’t disclosed for national security breaches but even if the political power grab wasn’t totally prepared for or prevented at least they’re exposed now. Technically the capitol police are also *in* congress so they’re included along with the rest. My run ins with white supremacist hijackers/thugs isn’t exactly the same but I’d have been there pushing back had I been asked

He, I, his wife and a couple of my friends around a washtub full of Miller Lite and Bud Light (just to piss the right wingers off) and the conversation goes where it will.

So, I could tell her to stop screwing up the country. And then duct tape her mouth shut.

I'm proud to have voted for him, and he seems like an actual regular person who just happens to be in Congress, not an interchangable suit.
