This "sound bite" should be front and center to every Incumbent Republicon

To be used in ads, on billboards, in letters, and directly to them (wherever they may be).

"Since you are truly the only ones who can do something in Congress, where were you when it was time to Stand Up For America?"

Make them squirm in their inaction if they don't and of course lead to their defeat.

Bear with me---pun intended.

Maybe (fate willing) the DonCon is meeting with Putin now to discuss where he could set up a hotel on the Black Sea in anticipation of his prosecution here and where he will spend the rest of his life. Goes with his effort to "repaint" Air Force one so no one realizes when he flies away.

Somewhat of a nit but..

I don't know if this is the place to post this, but there has been a lot of discussion (in the media) on the poor outcome of the woman who died from the Southwest Airlines incident of the engine failure, the window breach and her being sucked out of the window.

The news reporting talks on this event as something being exceptional but they never reference a similar occurrence in 1973. A DC-10 was traveling to San Fran and they had an engine failure that extracted a passenger over New Mexico. I remember it well as the plane safely landed at Albuquerque. The passenger was only found two years later.

Just to make sure that people know that this isn't the first time and to recognize 2 losses of life.

Really Something-Fox News Website

I was reluctant to go to Fox news website but I did to see their coverage of todays historical events. What I found probably wasn't surprising but there was essentially nothing on the March. There was some side link going to some article about David Hogg and how he is such a threat (they have many links to how bad he is) and that's it. They totally ignored today. The blindness and deafness is beyond belief.
