I've only watched the first senator from Rhode Island so far, but that was excellent, V. Great job, I can't wait to watch the rest. Thank you for all you do!! It is really great to finally hear from the senators on what's going on and how they view things.

Whitehouse refused to answer multiple constituent questions at his zoom last night about why he, the famed environmentalist, voted in oil drilling-fan Burgum for Secretary of the Interior. It’s weird be in RI where people are not that happy with him, and terrified about trans rights, women’s rights, DEIA programs going under, etc and he’s smiling in DC. He’s positively jolly.

V asked the question I’ve been wondering. And still didn’t get an answer. If they’re NOT illegal, y’all need to stop saying they ARE. And if they ARE illegal, ARREST THEM!!! Isn’t that how our process goes??? Arrest someone THEN do the court stuff?? Come on! If they had robbed a bank, what would happen?

This is not going to end well for them. We need to speak up and flip Congress in the next election.
