Maturity ... Over Mar-A-Lago

Reason ... Over Racism

Voting Rights ... Over Voter Suppression

Yes We Can ... Over "You Can't Do It"

🇺🇲 Thank You, House Democratic Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries ---- who should have been HOUSE SPEAKER

We have such a deep bench of amazing Democratic Representatives and Senators. The Repubes have no one of their caliber.

"Maturity over Mar-A-Lago". Yes we can.
The whole list read off like a list of charges accountable to a rampant criminal organization.
I'd rather watch the rotting corpse of Rupert Murdoch be eaten by worms than one more damndable minute of Fox News justify the Republican's corruption.

I think it will be a bumpy year in the House, said Mr. Obvious.
