So the same right wingers who screech about "free speech" are now banning/expelling legislators for exercising free speech IN A LEGISLATIVE CHAMBER, in Tennessee and now Montana, just because they don't like the content of their speech and, let's face it, their identities? Got it

Last year, Republicans tried to block the Honoring Our PACT Act.
Now, Speaker Kevin McCarthy is threatening a shutdown unless Congress passes a budget that cuts 30 million VA visits.

In response to Frank Figliuzzi.
Even if Trump explicitly told them to attempt to overrun the Capitol, they were still responsible for their own actions on 1/6. Claiming someone told you to rob a bank, does not in any way remove your guilt for robbing the bank. Hold these guys to the highest legal standards and responsibility.
