He was throwing Russian flags onto the floor and screaming that Trump was involved in treason with Russia. Hecas just outside Senate chamber doors. MAJOR security breach!

(768 posts)Check out the video at: http://www.cnn.com/2017/10/24/politics/trump-latest/index.html
If you pause it and slide the progress bar along, it looks like the flags say "TRUMP" on them.

(36,444 posts)I paused it, and another video, and I can not confirm with any certainty.
I'm thinking we need to take up a collection to get that hero a t-shirt cannon
On edit: The jury DID come back, and his name was on it, but it was printed on one side so half the flags didn't show it.

Oh, my edit was made during the grace period so that red edit banner didn't show.

Unless his motive was to get people discussing it. If so, rather effective.

The man did it for all of us even knowing he'll be in deep shit. Can't wait to contribute to his defense fund.

(51,610 posts)and put into the mental ward of a prison for life. The guy with the flags today should have a statue erected in his honor (maybe in place of a confederate statue). If any single person is somehow able to stop the fucking moron that person would have a major holiday named after him/her and there will be parades and dancing in the streets and songs will be written about it. Is there anybody out there who has the courage and honor to save our country?
barbtries
(28,799 posts)i'm just afraid for how dearly he'll pay for it.
BigmanPigman
(51,610 posts)pay his bail bill and all his legal fees plus give him a little more for his efforts. This effort should be rewarded and encouraged!
