Wow, this link love seems quaint… we have already forgotten the scandal of him trying to get the Georgia AG to falsify ballot results.
If you haven’t called your members of congress to support impeachment proceedings and to get Cruz and Hawley to resign, you can still do that today! (or fax or email etc.) More MOC need to sign on ASAP and they’ll do that if they hear from you! They’re already hearing from the nutty people that are pretending to believe the election was stolen– they need to hear from their silent sane constituents. Even if they’re democrats, even if they’re republican. They still need to hear from you.
Read this thread—I wish I’d read it before getting my congressman himself on the phone.
Another thought provoking thread about what to call the white supremacist seditionists who stormed the Capital.

Thank you…. especially for the link that points out ‘they know the truth and repeat the lie anyway.’

One of my senator’s permanent aides told me that “if enough people believe something it becomes the truth.”

You got your congressman on the phone??? What did he say? What would you do differently having read this thread?
January 9, 2021 at 12:18 pm
Yes, before 6am! (I asked him how he could sleep at night and then said obviously he couldn’t!)
He kept repeating, “Did you listen to the debate on the floor? The debate made it clear that..”
I would have said, “You don’t really believe that.”
Also, if I were to do it again, I would have asked him if he realized that *his* life was in danger. That *he* could have been hit by a stray bullet or molotov cocktail or pipe bomb if things had gone differently. (That’s not from the thread though.) And yet he still voted to overturn the results of a free and fair election in favor of the guy who put his life in danger. But I didn’t think of that until this morning.

My kid hears me rant about “Republicans” a lot. I really appreciated this message, cause it’s relatively digestible for an 11 year old, and I could point out that if all Republicans sounded like this we’d still have our differences, but we could definitely work together.
To be honest, Arnold even now is a bit over-the-top macho for my personal taste, but if you’re going to do “MERIC! EFF YA!”, I gotta respect it in this format.
