Members DRW50 Posted January 10, 2021 Members Share Posted January 10, 2021 I wish they would consider, before singling him out and putting his name this way, that he's going to get a lot of threats and attacks. I hope he was at least consulted beforehand. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JaneAusten Posted January 10, 2021 Members Share Posted January 10, 2021 Wasn't he the one in the Buzzfeed article that asked to have his name held for fear of retaliation? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted January 10, 2021 Members Share Posted January 10, 2021 I see your point. Yes, I agree about the filibuster. I guess it will take a few cycles for that to change. Hopefully this put Democrats in a decent position in 2022 to expand on their numbers. Oh I hadn't heard that. Geez. I hope not. I think people don't get just how many psychos out there do not see these officers as any type of heroes. They are targets. Even to members of Congress. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted January 10, 2021 Members Share Posted January 10, 2021 If he was the officer I think it'd be getting push on social media to take his name off - I'm not seeing any. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members janea4old Posted January 10, 2021 Members Share Posted January 10, 2021 (edited) Michigan Republican Congressman Peter Meijer comments on how they were in the middle of debating objections to the Arizona electoral college votes when the mob attacked. After the building was cleared, Congress resumed debate on the Arizona electoral college votes. They were now going to vote: yes - "agree with rejecting" the Arizona electoral votes. or no - "disagree with rejecting" the Arizona electoral votes. He says that one of his colleague Republican Congressional reps was about to vote to "agree with the objection" ... even though it was obvious that the objections were unfounded. The colleague wanted to vote no to the objection, but was going to vote yes anyhow. The colleague told Meijer that he/she/they was so terrorized by what had just happened that the colleague feared for his/her/their family. So out of fear, the colleague voted to agree with the objection, without wanting to. https://www.detroitnews.com/story/opinion/2021/01/09/opinion-after-heinous-assault-time-reckon-reality/6599593002/ Edited January 10, 2021 by janea4old 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members I Am A Swede Posted January 10, 2021 Members Share Posted January 10, 2021 You know, after listening to this speech by Elizabeth Warren and the one by Tammy Duckworth (both of whom were made after the riots), it's hard to understand how the senators and congressmen/women who kept up their treasonous objections to the electoral votes even after what happened can look themselves in the mirror. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DramatistDreamer Posted January 10, 2021 Members Share Posted January 10, 2021 Telegram offers the possibility of a tantalizing "backdoor" to the Russian FSB. I expect Vladimir Vladimirovic to be doubling up on applying the pressure to jimmy that backdoor open. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
