The GQP isn't going to pay ANY price for totally ignoring Gladys. Can you IMAGINE how things would be playing out and the outrage from the GQP if things were on the other foot and Dems were disrespectful to Sicknick's Mom? It's bad enough that the GQP and MoscowMitch are getting away with NOT wanting a formal/bi-partisan investigation into investigating Jan. 6th, 2021. But then again, they do have help from 2 Dem Senators though who don't care about democracy or about if Dems get anything done at all.

needs to be running ads every day in the states those two Dems are from, showing the damage they are doing to the rest of the dems in trying to get out of this mess. Let their personal vanities survive that!!!!!!!!!!!

She's lost her son in service to his country.

She deserves compassion and respect.

She’s determined to make sure her son’s death (murder) isn’t whitewashed.
