Put the monkey on their backs because they own all of this and also because they will not stop trying to undermine our Democratic foundations. Fight them now or we will have to fight them later at much more disadvantaged position. We as Democrats, do not want to find ourselves in this position. Just asking for a power punch, not never done under the Rule of Law, just deliver it to them .... Kick them in the Mofo teeth with it... these repubs are about to stand up on the House floor and say that President-Elect Biden and Madam Vice President Elect Kamala Harris were not duly elected !!!! Well I believe that we need an equally, overwhelmingly, forceful message to the civil war throw backs (you lost already, you lost again, just blow away, the south ain't gonna rise again unless she be a BLACK WOMAN). DON'T seat these folks .... period !!!!!
