Some plain talk: anyone who threatens a Senator or a Representative with harm to them

or their family needs to be "STOMPED ON!"

I don't know if my dominant emotion is anger or shame as I listen to reports that some who want to vote "aye" on impeachment may vote "no" because the fear that their families will be harmed if they "betray the President"!

This REEKS of fascist extremism and these Trumpies should all be considered "armed and dangerous" and experience "guns drawn" arrests and then get legally HAMMERED!

My Senators and Rep will hear from me as soon as I finish this.

at some point today, those that have been threatened will get a knowing look from the podium.
at least one of the house managers will say the same on the senate floor.

and they will, once and for all, write their names in the history books- hero or coward.

I am sure any of these guys would be glad to vote to bomb another middle east country. Not so brave when doing the right thing affect you.

Why did you run for office? To run from terrorist?

Do the right thing. Period
