An open letter to Senators Boozman, Cotton and Congressman Womack:
I have only one question for each of you. Are you a Russian or an American? You cannot serve two masters and must choose; Vladimir Putin and his acolyte or the U.S. Constitution.
Kevin McCarthy famously noted that he knew 2 Republicans that were paid by Putin; Congressman Rohrabacher and Donald Trump. Should he have added you three to the list of those paid with laundered money pilfered by Russians from other countries treasuries?
Your silence during the impeachment hearings has been deafening and noted by your constituents. You may think that we are all brainwashed by Fox and Sinclair; but no matter how many times you say our eyes are lying, we can still see the truth.
Donald Trump has betrayed his oath of office and committed treason. He abused his office using our money for his personal gain; covered up the truth and consistently obstructed Congress from finding out the details of his crimes. He has betrayed us, jeopardized our national security while plotting to steal the next election.
You can pretend that all is well; but History will not judge any of you kindly. Its time to honor your oath of office and defend our Constitution and country. You must impeach and remove Donald Trump.

(32,653 posts)Last letter took a ton of energy out of me as I bent over backwards to be respectful to Isakson and appeal to his better side. He's retiring at the end of the month so he has NOTHING to lose by doing the right thing, FFS!
For Perdue, I'm definitely going to bring up his previous smug response about impeachment starting in the House, not the Senate. He basically promised that if it ever reached the senate, he'd consider all the information brought before him. I'll attempt to hold him to that.
